The list is going to be a little different for this week because I've been organizing the bowl, writing trivia, and planning for the trip I'm about to take pretty much as soon as I finish this post. I'll be back next Monday. There are three parts to this one: First are all of the typos nominated by other people in the past week. Second are the top ten from the first day, Sunday, July 12, but not ranked. Since I wasn't keeping track continuously throughout the week this time, I had to sift through logs, and it took so long just to get through Sunday that that's all you're gonna get. Third are the Bucc Bowl top nine (because that's how many pass my rigid standards of what makes a good typo :P).
In addition, I'd like you all to post your nominations for the coming week directly to the comments section in this post, since I won't be around to see any of them or to collect nominations by IM. Since this week's list heavily favors the weekend crowd, I hope someone's keeping close track of the weekday typos in particular. Just add them when something good comes up.
This is also a bit of a rush job, so no rankings... but the bunch of them from Sunday the 12th should give you an idea of just how much I end up paring the actual list down to get it to ten, at least during the weeks when I'm at a lot of trivia.
