I had the week of my life.... went 14/16 missing only on the Ravens and the Jaguars. Thurman's Helmet who was level with me at the top forgot to pick so the table looks as so:

 

1 - GunnerBill - 149-89

2 - Thurman's Helmet - 135-103

3 - Gugny - 130-108

4 - Reddogblitz - 128-110

 

I'd be THIRD in the big League!!!!! Only 3 points off the top..... still a chance!

 

 I picked nearly all upsets.  It didn't go well for me :-)

Took 12th thanks guys was fun, what does dropped mean by the way? I am also confused how to guys right ahead of me had two more losses but finished ahead, I thought I picked every game everyweek.

           The contest is set up to drop your lowest scoring week.  You missed picking one week and went 0 for 15.   Billsnut who was just above you had a throwout week of 4 wins but as it turns out, there were only 13 games played that week.  So you played 15 games less than everyone and he played 13 games less than everyone, thus the difference of 2 in the loss column.

        I have noticed this in years past, that all of a sudden I had less games played than someone I was close to.  Never understood why until I just went through the scoring for you.  It helped that you had a zero one week.   Also, in years past I have made picks and not had them registered, as once a couple of years past I received a zero for a week I thought I played.  There is something odd sometimes when you follow the saved link to play, what you are not really logged in.   Now I always go back to make sure my picks are really logged.

 

     It is kind of a shame that almost half the group quits playing before year end, when every year a few people can't sign up because we are at limit.  

And thanks to SDS.   This always makes the season a lot more interesting, besides the fact that I can control what teams do just by picking them to win or lose.  Some teams always do the opposite, i.e. the Bills.?

Thanks for the weekly tally, and thanks Scott for doing it again this year. I still cant figure out how it dropped some games for me, Greybeards explanation didn't seem to work in my case, but I just figured it was the dropped week that threw off the counts.

             Tell me what name you played under and I will try to sort it out.   I am kind of curious.   I did not total the counts on Billrouter, maybe in your case I have to.

He's Big TD's

        You didn't give me his full name which is "I love Big TD's."  I love that name, especially if you say it real fast.?

 

       So I did a quick spreadsheet to put his data in.   His lowest number of wins happened three times.

    Week 3      8-8

    Week 11    8-5

    Week 13    8-8 

 

   If you drop one of the 8-8 weeks, it comes out to 160-78, the same as the final standings.

   If you don't drop out any weeks, it comes to 168-86.

@Guffalo  Mr Big TD's

 @ExWNYer   

 @snafu    

 @JMF2006   

  @Doc Brown  

 @JÂy RÛßeÒ 

 

 

@GunnerBill @Gugny

Good job sticking with it 

 

I ended with another cracking week 13/16. Finished on 162 - miles clear of the rest of the splinter league who I think all missed the last week selections.

 

162-92. I think that puts me 3rd overall - which is by FAR the best I have ever done in this! Typical it would be the year I missed the entry for the big league and ended up in the splinter group. Still, really good fun. And thanks for the updates Shady which I know those of us in the splinter league appreciated because it made us still feel part of the competition.

 

Congrats to @Misterbluesky a well deserved win.
