Sean,
What a great and enjoyable read and congratulations. The big question then - does your list include House Crow? As it happens another milestone was reached this weekend Barbara Harvey became the first female to reach 700 having recently ticked off some lifers in the NT. My hat goes off to you both.

As for ticking the House Crow - Personally I agree with Dion and feel that people should follow Christidis and Boles but this species is boarder-line being a very resourceful species it could have been ship assisted of its own accord or it could have been ship assisted with the help of humans - we will never know, so for the sake of our FUN game of ticking and the sake of the web-site I am leaving the choice to the individual. For what its worth I decided not to waste frequent flyer miles on it myself.

Good birding
Tony
