Chen narrows the chase

That is a recorded improvement, not a net daily comparison: the previous-close comparison for her entry is unavailable. Tufa’s score is unchanged against that close.

Third place gains breathing room

Team Turducken added 3.20 against the previous close to reach 56.02, retaining third. Its advantage over fourth-placed mtg, unchanged at 50.37, is now 5.65. The gain was already on the morning board and reported by the early wire; it is part of today’s close-to-close story, not a fresh evening surge.

A busy route into the top hundred

The day’s wire charted several sharp climbs below the leading pack. In its late observation, kkkk reached 60th at 34.50 after a 5.17 gain from 891st against the previous close. Earlier reports put Vickyfym 77th at 33.94, qiuqiu 81st at 33.77 and Cà Rốt Production 91st at 33.62, each with its own earlier comparison window. Those are dated wire positions rather than a claim that every rank held to the close. Smallfish was observed at 140th at 33.10 in the morning wire; unfamiliar names do not by themselves establish a new entrant.
