Roundup 2018! Rain, Spotted Suckers, and a new CHAMPION!

By the way, if you're wondering why the site keeps changing in appearance, it's because we're feverishly trying to keep it up despite an avalanche of automated bot attacks that take over the server and use it to mine bitcoins (the Drupalgeddon2 vulnerability). We've scaled back the dynamic content to take some of the pressure off, which may allow us to clean the server more effectively. We apologize for the inconvenience. All the content is still available, but you might need to dig a bit for it.

2018 Contest is approaching!
