Default Messier Marathon: Any Perfect Scores So Far?

Not me Tom. I got 102 at Az. City with my little ST80 and I'm sure you know
it was "catch as catch can". At least the company was excellent as usual.
I'd love to know if anyone got all of them.

Has anybody heard of any reports of a perfect score of all 110 objects
in the Messier marathon this year? I reckon our observing window at
latitude 33 degrees north in Arizona is about March 22 through 29. I
was really curious if anybody would get all 110 on the night of the
20th at our big event, but a wall of clouds in the east kept the best
scores down to 109. My hunch is that M30 may have been visible in
that bright twilight if conditions were better.
