OK, I know most of us would rather not have a reminder of how we did after last weekend's games, but someone has to start this week's thread. This week's games: <amount home away> 54 TFC COL 55 NER RSL 56 KCW NYR 57 LAG DCU 58 HOU FCD 59 CHI CLB
I'll drink to that: 40 TFC COL 163 NER RSL 76 KCW NYR 71 DCU LAG 86 HOU FCD 148 CHI CLB Edit: game 3 should be NY rather than NE!
Big moves from old-schoolers this week as tab5g makes yet another huge move toward the top, taking home the Weekly Cup with a 200+ performance and vaulting 2 spots to #2. He cleaned up on NYR and picked the KCW "upset". Meanwhile defending champ IASocFan keeps the heat on with a strong second place performance. BenC1357 ensures overrepresentation of Wizard fans in the top 5 with a third place showing. Bulajacket jumps 4 spots finishing fourth this week. Quango rounds out our top 5 and claims a spot in the first division. Also winning promotion to div 1 is PCrsl. Alf bags Play of the Week for his huge investment in CVS, and wins div 2 promotion in the process. Saeyddthe is our other div 2 newcomer. FAQ page will be updated later in the day. No midweek game this week. *FAQ and your remaining bets are available on the WPL status page.* ____________________________________________________________ Play Of The Week: alf, for the bet of 192 on CVS over DAL Weekly Cup: 1 tab5g 207.8054 2 IASocFan 124.8415 3 BenC1357 95.14614 4 BulaJacket 95.09076 5 Quango 92.60384 Code: [b]Division 1[/b] [b][i]Rank Prev Name Perf/yr Perf/wk Bet Won[/i][/b] 1 1 Greywacke 401.43 84.80 508 412.5 2 4 tab5g 399.27 207.81 650 645.75 3 3 IASocFan 333.38 124.84 686 608.5 4 2 Qdog 248.99 20.38 708 522 5 5 BenC1357 218.48 95.15 589 484.5 6 7 jlo 118.05 82.43 611 488.75 7 9 AMERICANS SC 88.38 74.87 685 581 8 10 dredgfan 55.75 45.77 673 513.5 9 6 matzek73 46.52 -58.86 112 0 10 8 Shaydee -1.23 -23.35 524 308 11 16 Quango -72.40 92.60 926 762.25 12 15 PCrsl -75.13 83.19 610 550 13 11 NoSix -93.70 -39.28 884 601.75 [b]Division 2[/b] [b][i]Rank Prev Name Perf/yr Perf/wk Bet Won[/i][/b] 14 14 firefan2001 -139.20 16.39 387 270.75 15 19 BulaJacket -196.42 95.09 572 474.5 16 12 dred -229.18 -100.58 590 305.5 17 17 Crewbasher -234.87 -26.51 595 372 18 13 themrs. -285.55 -139.07 454 157.75 19 18 CubanApex -340.84 -67.19 753 448 20 22 petezuke17 -361.53 77.01 386 321.75 21 21 FlashMan -376.87 24.18 553 390.5 22 20 burnfan00 -517.06 -167.95 297 0 23 30 alf -628.46 32.52 699 531 24 23 revolutionfan -660.03 -192.86 336 0 25 28 Saeyddthe -701.46 -99.89 813 476 26 24 Novaflow10 -714.02 -199.38 346 0 [b]Division 3[/b] [b][i]Rank Prev Name Perf/yr Perf/wk Bet Won[/i][/b] 27 25 rpi-fan -730.89 -196.12 341 0 28 26 Jc1231 -755.78 -174.89 308 0 29 27 soccertom -794.02 -201.97 350 0 30 29 DamonEsquire -936.45 -288.14 862 377.5 [b]Rate of Return:[/b] [b][i]Rank Name Percent[/i][/b] 1 Greywacke 77.65% 2 tab5g 76.92% 3 IASocFan 76.11% 4 AMERICANS SC 73.99% 5 Qdog 73.71% 6 BenC1357 72.80% 7 firefan2001 70.36% 8 dredgfan 69.88% 9 jlo 69.85% 10 NoSix 67.44% 11 PCrsl 67.33% 12 Quango 66.06% 13 matzek73 65.82% 14 Shaydee 65.46% 15 BulaJacket 64.17% 16 dred 62.73% 17 Crewbasher 60.69% 18 FlashMan 59.22% 19 CubanApex 58.74% 20 petezuke17 57.03% 21 Saeyddthe 53.29% 22 DamonEsquire 52.04% 23 themrs. 51.42% 24 alf 49.35% 25 burnfan00 26.26% 26 Jc1231 19.82% 27 revolutionfan 14.28% 28 rpi-fan 6.07% 29 Novaflow10 5.59% 30 soccertom 0.00% [b]Points:[/b] [b][i]Rank Name Won Bet[/i][/b] 1 IASocFan 4007.25 5265 2 tab5g 3819.25 4965 3 Qdog 3667 4975 4 NoSix 3267 4844 5 BulaJacket 3232.25 5037 6 jlo 3086.5 4419 7 Quango 3070 4647 8 AMERICANS SC 3011.5 4070 9 PCrsl 2900.5 4308 10 BenC1357 2896 3978 11 dred 2889.75 4607 12 DamonEsquire 2793.75 5368 13 firefan2001 2605.25 3703 14 dredgfan 2574.5 3684 15 FlashMan 2516.25 4249 16 Greywacke 2514.25 3238 17 Crewbasher 2481.5 4089 18 Saeyddthe 2467.5 4630 19 Shaydee 2415.5 3690 20 CubanApex 2269.75 3864 21 petezuke17 2137.5 3748 22 matzek73 1772.5 2693 23 alf 1658.5 3361 24 themrs. 1565.75 3045 25 burnfan00 432.75 1648 26 Jc1231 361.25 1823 27 revolutionfan 220.25 1542 28 rpi-fan 89 1467 29 Novaflow10 80 1431 30 soccertom 0 1431 ____________________________________________________________ Next weeks action: <amount home away> 54 TOR COL 55 NER RSL 56 KCW NYR 57 LAG DCU 58 HOU DAL 59 CHI CLB
Seriously, it seems like every year I stay fixed around the 17 or 18th spot. Well, at least I'm consistent, I suppose.
3 Tor Col 116 Rsl Ner 117 Nyr Kcw 4 Dcu Lag 118 Hou Dal 6 Chi Clb Here is week bye week break down: Week 1- 2-1 West with three ties. Week 2- 3-2 East with two ties. Week 3- 2-2 with a tie. Week 4- 6-2 East with no ties. Week 5- 3-1 East with two ties. Week 6- 2-2 with two ties. Week 7- 4-2 East with two ties. Week 8- 3-2 East with two ties. East maintains its dominance.
You know, if this was the NBA and you could move up just a little, you could be a playoff team. Sort of like LA.
Big kudos to DamonEsquire. To miss big bets like that and stay in the game...maximum respect. 104 TOR COL 184 NER RSL 144 KCW NYR 14 LAG DCU 84 HOU DAL 34 CHI CLB PS: I miss your ramblings, Damon. They make me feel like I've really read something ingenious even if I don't understand it.
Quango sweeps the Fat Bastard and Drunken Sailor awards, winning 762.25 points while wagering a tremendous 926. Other naval personnel bellying up to the bar included NoSix (884); DamonEsquire (862); and Saeyddthe (813). Not-quite-as-fat bastards included tab5g (645.75); IASocFan (608.5); and NoSix again (601.75). Carry on, hedonists.

54 Games have been played, so I suggest you rethink your lower bets, and bet at least 55 on all games. Good luck, and with not much effort, I'm sure you can get into the 2nd division quickly!
