Greetings!
Ahoy hoy, it’s Q here, the friendly mascot of the Your Top 3 contest and I hope you’re enjoying another month of Top 3 shenanigans! In today’s post, I want to talk about the various different leagues that we have going with my monthly contest, how they work and find out where you stand in the current rankings! Let’s begin!
Your Top 3 Contest Leagues
On top of the monthly contest, I have set up a series of Quarterly leagues that run throughout the year and an ultimate Champions League to crown the ultimate Your Top 3 Champion for the year!
Q’s Quarterly Leagues
My personal “Q’s League” that runs every quarter involves some revolutionary mathematics to give points to those who finished outside the Top 3 in the regular monthly contest. These points build up each month and contribute to that quarter’s points total.
Those who finish in the Top 3 of the Quarterly Leagues will get HBD prizes too. So don’t despair if you didn’t win the big monthly prizes, there’s a chance to win with the quarterly leagues!
Q3 Table After One Round
Round 1 was completed last month in the Q3 leagues and the temperature is certainly heating up already, particularly as we all shared our favorite lead singers! At the moment, it’s @the100 who has taken the early lead with @dksart and @wiseagent in 3rd singing on the podium positions for the time being.
As you know, we currently have our dpoll open for this month’s topic of “End of the World” movies and that could change EVERYTHING with the league standings once again. Nothing is a given in the Q’s leagues but I had to witness a hard lesson being learned by one Top 3er who was leading in the final round but didn’t enter and so dropped out of the top 3 altogether - this was a real life Q nightmare. It just goes to show, you have to be in it to win it!
Champions League
Ah, the Champions League, grandest of them all! At the end of the year, I’ll be unleashing the ultimate Champions League where all the points accumulated from each month throughout the calendar year will be totted up and HBD prizes will be given to those that finish in the Top 3.
Most importantly though, you get to be crowned Your Top 3 Champion and have the ultimate bragging rights! Here’s how the Champions League looks after July:
Clash of the Titans
Yes, the Q-lash of the Titans continues in our year long Champions League. After the current league leader @wiseagent was toppled, it saw his lead cut down a little bit and a chance for the chasing pack to catch up. Will this be a momentary blip or can the others smell blood? Strong finishes last month from @theunderbaker, @fionasfavourites and @justclickindiva have thrown the cat amongst the pigeons and the competition for the top 3 positions couldn’t be any fiercer!
The league table doesn’t lie though and it’s no surprise that the current top 3 are where they are, purely based on the number of times entered as they have been ever present each month this year - just shows you gotta play to get the points! Winning also isn’t everything as consistently being on the podium puts points on the board as well, there’s still plenty of time for it all to change!
So which way will the positions go after this month’s results are in? Find out in next month’s League Update but if you want my advice - keep entering each month and see where you end up 😉
The Prize Pool Structure
With all these different prizes for different leagues, how do I calculate them all?
Well, have no fear, I’ve broken it down for you in the handy list below! Here’s how the monthly entry fees will be divided up:
- 65% to the monthly Top 3 Prize Pool
- 5% to the Quarterly League Prize Pool
- 5% to the Champions League Prize Pool
- 25% to the Panel

Q
The Leagues are shaping up nicely for the quarter and for the year! So much fun to see the spots jostle around each month to give everyone a shot for some extra prizes. Thanks to all of our wonderful contestants for bringing their best each month and everyone who takes the time to come vote on the dpoll!
9th place, lol looks like I'm channelling my inner Mikel Arteta
Haha, if you win Q's league, could be exactly mimicking Mikel, bad premier league form but superb cup run!
Interesting changes there Q! Can the leader be caught? I don't think Mr @wiseagent will be resting on his laurels at this stage!
Excited to see how the leagues change at the end of the month!
Looking interesting, although I''m at the 11th position in the Champions League. The points difference is huge from the person at the top 😆. Let's see if comebacks are real.
Hi @yourtop3 I'm holding my own. Can't afford to snooze, else I might lose, as they say. I'll just keep going. On to next month to round out the quarter. See you then.
