CSS Results for 10/17/2013 (Game 19)

Five DSWs.

Six WSDs.

One mess of a results sheet.

When there's a FRATS, there's either a boatload of garfs or a boatload of overbids. Today, it was the latter. 16 people overbid it, including five of those WSDs, causing a mess of red on the spreadsheet. Those that didn't overbid it performed really well, however, with the worst difference (outside of the StagePlayer, but that's to be expected) being just over $2000 away. Five people DSW'd it, with four of those being two-digit differences. whammy007 gets the $54 DSW and the win, but was bested for the cash by FieldsFan336 with her $26 difference...though she had a pretty nice garf on the Nissan Juke.

Speaking of the Juke, bids are all over the place. A few overbids (including a very painful WSD from DJTorgo who very nearly WSQ'd today), a few garfs, and a few middle-of-the-road bids. I had the best bid on it overall, the only one to have a three-digit difference...but as I went over on the FRATS, cash thus goes to winner whammy007. I guess that's a nice little consolation for having your DSW bested. :)

People are tired of the f**kery and drama, but if we'd actually talk to each other sometimes instead of a whole bunch of private conversations with other people, it'd go a long way to perhaps fixing the problems most seem to see in the site.

I guess Torgo and I should get the special bid award for having the same WSD difference on the two separate showcases. ;)

Adding $500 to each showcase would've been a pretty sweet result.  And I considered $21,300 for SC1, but I thought this was a pretty cheap showcase and hacked $500 off just to be safe.  Ah well.

My futility finally ended today.  My first DSW of Season 42.
Well, this week was supposed to be a return to normalcy, but that's clearly not allowed.  Since you feel there is no need for this week's FPG to continue, I feel there is no need to continue as an FPG host or a G-R.net member.  Since most people are so desperate to push me out of here, why delay it?  I would have preferred that everybody publicly admitted it rather than string me along for the last two days, but it is what it is.  I am hereby resigning as FPG host and moderator, effective immediately.  whammy007 is the new permanent host.  No R-rated rant or airing of grievances from me.  Just a polite "goodbye for good".

My futility... is probably not over, but I'm glad to see not only my first DSW of the season, but first cash as well. Huzzah - my points have been doubled!

Second cashing this week, and on a DSW!  Interesting how all the yellows came on the FRATS

Pain.
Torgo has left the building. John and I never really cared for the way he presented himself.
