Other Lonely Statistics:

- For a while, all records in Bricks V had been found by at least one of the top teams
(Henru&Dietmar&Fabrice or Marco&Sampsa), i.e. nobody else had a Lonely Record.
Paul's Hyacinth @ 79 (-3) has changed all that, though :)

  a couple before he finally figured out how level #1 was supposed to go! :)
