And there it is! firefan2001 takes down the last Weekly Cup of the Year, while petezuke17 grabs Play of the Week and sneaks into silver medal position at the death. But it's Jaheigel who runs away with the title in dominating fashion. Congrats to everyone who managed to finish out the year with a competitive score! This will be my last WPL season as the league really needs someone who's following MLS closely and enthusiastic about the job to administer it. It's been a great... 13 years (yikes!)... but nothing lasts forever. I wanna thank everyone who stuck with it through the fun times and the not-so-fun times. I'm still gonna put up a playoff WPL for the sake of completeness. I'm happy to be involved with discussions about a successor, and I'll still be on bigsoccer from time to time. *Remaining bets embedded in post.* Last week's thread. ____________________________________________________________ Play Of The Week: petezuke17, for the bet of 269 on POR over DAL Weekly Cup: 1 firefan2001 344.8077 2 FlashMan 139.7927 3 petezuke17 138.2639 4 Mucky 103.3054 5 Jahiegel 87.15717 Code: [b]Division 1 [i]Rank Prev Name Perf/yr Perf/wk Bet Won[/i][/b] 1 1 Jahiegel 3,619.35 87.16 2979 2403.25 2 3 petezuke17 2,669.10 138.26 2662 2127.75 3 2 Mucky 2,659.60 103.31 2877 2310.75 4 4 FlashMan 2,624.60 139.79 2474 1976.75 5 5 ZipSix 2,399.85 44.75 2134 1665.75 6 6 IASocFan 1,934.10 -163.36 1596 984.5 7 7 Geneva 1,688.60 -347.83 2389 1429.5 8 9 firefan2001 1,682.35 344.81 2342 2081.5 9 8 StillKickin 1,003.85 -361.84 1822 935.5 10 10 RoleModel83 821.60 -147.92 2893 2079 11 11 Revolt 266.10 -61.33 2562 1830.75 12 12 vividox -194.65 -18.70 365 176.25 13 13 Darkwing McQuack-2,247.40 23.33 2357 1843 14 14 tolbuck -4,351.15 -1,881.552551 0 15 15 ceezmad -7,301.40 -2,320.582984 0 16 16 KensingtonSC -11,953.91 -2,079.342748 0 17 17 hymeskillet -21,423.65 -2,534.773185 0 18 18 dred -24,067.40 -2,523.903175 0 19 19 spot -27,431.15 -2,515.173167 0 [b]Division 2 [i]Rank Prev Name Perf/yr Perf/wk Bet Won[/i][/b] 20 20 BulaJacket -27,746.40 -2,458.813115 0 21 21 sedlie -30,764.90 -2,392.313053 0 22 22 broski malone -31,629.40 -2,534.773185 0 23 23 thnkucomeagain -32,194.40 -2,534.773185 0 24 24 dadcoachref -32,455.90 -2,527.153178 0 25 25 evangel -33,780.15 -2,534.773185 0 26 26 nlsanand -34,961.40 -2,513.033165 0 27 27 revsfan603 -35,047.40 -2,534.773185 0 28 28 edwardgr -35,581.15 -2,534.773185 0 29 29 scooby31 -35,950.40 -2,534.773185 0 30 30 John Mercado -36,059.90 -2,534.773185 0 31 31 Levy2k6 -36,265.90 -2,534.773185 0 32 32 Centennial -36,438.65 -2,534.773185 0 33 33 Waliatiger -36,644.40 -2,534.773185 0 34 34 jrmathews2014 -36,644.40 -2,534.773185 0 35 35 KickersFTW -36,644.40 -2,534.773185 0 [b]Rate of Return: [i]Rank Name Percent[/i][/b] 1 Jahiegel 76.95% 2 petezuke17 75.13% 3 Mucky 75.11% 4 FlashMan 75.05% 5 ZipSix 74.62% 6 IASocFan 73.73% 7 Geneva 73.26% 8 firefan2001 73.25% 9 StillKickin 71.95% 10 RoleModel83 71.60% 11 Revolt 70.54% 12 vividox 69.66% 13 Darkwing McQuack 65.74% 14 tolbuck 61.72% 15 ceezmad 56.08% 16 KensingtonSC 47.19% 17 hymeskillet 29.09% 18 dred 24.04% 19 spot 17.61% 20 BulaJacket 17.00% 21 sedlie 11.24% 22 broski malone 9.58% 23 thnkucomeagain 8.50% 24 dadcoachref 8.00% 25 evangel 5.47% 26 nlsanand 3.22% 27 revsfan603 3.05% 28 edwardgr 2.03% 29 scooby31 1.33% 30 John Mercado 1.12% 31 Levy2k6 0.72% 32 Centennial 0.39% 33 Waliatiger 0.00% 34 jrmathews2014 0.00% 35 KickersFTW 0.00% [b]Points: [i]Rank Name Won Bet[/i][/b] 1 Jahiegel 40263.7552326 2 petezuke17 39313.5 52326 3 Mucky 39304 52326 4 FlashMan 39269 52326 5 ZipSix 39044.2552326 6 IASocFan 38578.5 52326 7 Geneva 38333 52326 8 firefan2001 38326.7552326 9 StillKickin 37648.2552326 10 RoleModel83 37466 52326 11 Revolt 36910.5 52326 12 vividox 36449.7552326 13 Darkwing McQuack 34397 52326 14 tolbuck 32293.2552326 15 ceezmad 29343 52326 16 KensingtonSC 24690.5 52326 17 hymeskillet 15220.7552326 18 dred 12577 52326 19 spot 9213.25 52326 20 BulaJacket 8898 52326 21 sedlie 5879.5 52326 22 broski malone 5015 52326 23 thnkucomeagain 4450 52326 24 dadcoachref 4188.5 52326 25 evangel 2864.25 52326 26 nlsanand 1683 52326 27 revsfan603 1597 52326 28 edwardgr 1063.25 52326 29 scooby31 694 52326 30 John Mercado 584.5 52326 31 Levy2k6 378.5 52326 32 Centennial 205.75 52326 33 Waliatiger 0 52326 34 jrmathews2014 0 52326 35 KickersFTW 0 52326 [b]Available Bets:[/b] Jahiegel petezuke17 Mucky FlashMan ZipSix IASocFan Geneva firefan2001 StillKickin RoleModel83 Revolt vividox Darkwing McQuack tolbuck ceezmad KensingtonSC hymeskillet dred spot BulaJacket sedlie broski malone thnkucomeagain dadcoachref evangel nlsanand revsfan603 edwardgr scooby31 John Mercado Levy2k6 Centennial Waliatiger jrmathews2014 KickersFTW ____________________________________________________________
Thank you for all your hard work, @dred. I know I speak for everyone on here when I say it was much appreciated. I was introduced to WPL a few years ago by @ZipSix, and immediately fell in love with it. It's become a part of my weekly routine, and really helps me get excited for the matches. Therefore, I nominate @ZipSix to serve as your successor. The game must go on, and I think he has the passion not only for WPL, but BigSoccer as well to keep up with this monster of an undertaking. He's also one of the most intelligent and insightful persons I know.
I missed a good chunk of the later half of the season, as life got in the way. But I would like to thank you @dred for all of the work you've done with this over the past decade+. I do hope it continues.
