==Results of [[Round 43|round 43]]==The first round of [[2014 ]] was very exciting and it took quite some time before the top 3 finally settled. It started off with a [[Turf ]] couple, both former gold medalists, from [[Municipality:Västerås |Västerås]] fleeing the country in search for zones in [[Country:Denmark|Denmark]]. [[User:FiskeLasse |FiskeLasse]] and [[User:squirrel|squirrel ]] travelled around the country, scoring points, unique [[Zone|zones ]] and of course the [[Denmark Explorer ]] medal. Doing so they occupied the lead for about half the round, but at that point they unfortunately both got sick and rapidly lost their top positions.

At this point the people just under them in the top list started to move, the [[Municipality:Örebro |Örebro]] turfer [[User:Scalextric |Scalextric]] took the opportunity and went up to first position and stayed there. Behind him we find, yet again, [[User:Snusmumriken |Snusmumriken]] who totally controlled [[Municipality:Linköping|Linköping]]. Doing so she also managed to reach 40000 40 000 [[Take|takeovers ]] as the first [[Turfer|turfer ]] ever, very impressive! The [[Bronze medal|bronze medal ]] went after heavy battles to the [[Municipality:Stockholm|Stockholm ]] turfer [[User:järven|järven]]. He had tough competition from the [[Municipality:Jönköping |Jönköping]] turfers [[User:thorre |thorre]] and [[User:Ystra|Ystra ]] but managed to stay ahead in the end. Congrats to all of you :-)

The interest for organising different kinds of events is really increasing among the [[Turfer|turfers]]. The [[Turf Developers|Turf developers ]] realised this some time ago and created a nice tool for building [[Zone|zones ]] and creating events[[event]]s. Making this tool available to people wanting to arrange events has indeed been proved a great idea! We have seen both open and closed events (sign up required, maybe limited amount of participants) and I bet we'll see even more in the future! In December we had the Lusseturfen in [[Municipality:Västerås|Västerås]], a challenging trek in the Rocklunda forest which [[User:SunYour|SunYour]] ended up winning. In the start of January [[Municipality:Kalmar|Kalmar]] also held a walking only event which [[User:NewBridgeKing|NewBridgeKing]] won. Upcoming events are Turf on Ice in [[Municipality:Västerås|Västerås]] on February 16th, a winter event in [[Municipality:Umeå|Umeå]], held on the 22nd of February and on April 26th, [[Municipality:Borlänge|Borlänge]] invites everyone to the first Dalarna Turf Open. If you have the opportunity to participate, I urge you to do it! It's great fun, you'll meet lots of great people and of course we get to compete :-)
