Unit Game Masterpoint Race

The winner of the Monthly Unit Game Race gets a free play for all of the next year's games.  The leaders in Flight B and Flight C (based on what flight you were in at the start of the year) each win six free plays to the next year's games.  If a player wins more than one of the prizes, he wins only the top award and the lower awards go to the next eligible player.  Here are the latest standings:

How the MUG race works: The top player in the standings gets his or her name on the MUG trophy, and free plays to all of the MUGs in the following calendar year.  The top player in Flight B (under 2000), and Flight C (changed for 2008: now under 750) both receive six free plays for MUGs in the following calendar year.  Nobody is allowed to win more than one prize; if a player wins in multiple flights the lower prize(s) go to the next highest eligible player.  Everyone competes in the race(s) that he or she was eligible for on January 1, even after accumulating enough masterpoints since to move up a strat.  Last year's winners were: Gilbert Lambert in Flight A, Jack Lee in Flight B and David Yu in Flight C.  The current standings in the 2008 race:
