FPG 11/11/16 - RESULTS
« on: November 11, 2016, 09:55:23 PM »
Anchors aweigh, my boys, anchors aweigh! The waters of FPG are a lot clearer this week, and I'll tell you just how much clearer...

> First game of the season not to have a SANDBAG.
> First game of the season not to have multiple key games.
> First game of the season not have ANY key games.
> First game of the season to have a 10 MP scorer.
> 8+ MP scorers in first three games - 2. This game alone - 7.
> Biggest number of correct games before today - 3. Six-for-six bonus awarded this game.

A quick review of the lineup that produced those stat changes...

Dice Game: seven picks, none for 4 MP
Now... or Then: six picks, none for 4 MP
Most Expen$ive: 19 picks, none for 4 MP
Coming or Going: 14 picks, six for 4 MP, Schfifty maxes it out
1/2 Off: seven picks, none for 4 MP
Any Number: spoiled game, 23 picks, only wildbill gets 4 MP

The best of the best are truly deserving of that name today...

3. TPIRFan2000 - 8/30 and a $200,000 bonus for a six-for-six lineup, four in correct halves
2. SuperSweeper - 8/33 on five games, nailed Coming or Going
1. Cephas - 10/36 on five games, nailed Coming or Going

The full results table, with everyone managing to score, even if only on the spoiled game...


Next Friday is special-free and spoiler-free... for now. I'll see you then, and you'll see the season's first leaderboard shortly.

Well, I certainly didn't expect to go 6 for 6 here. I'm a little mad at myself too, given that I originally had the second half slotted perfectly...but then I switched CoG and Half since 4th and 5th were their least frequent slots last season, and moved Any 3rd to avoid consecutive TT games. I'll still gladly take my $200k.
I hadn't really thought about this before, but the reality of death means that every day there are less people in the world than the day before.  In reality there are many more people in the world than this but for illustration: If one day there are 1000 people in the world and the next day 55 people die, now there are 945 people in the world. if 30 more die the next day now there are 915 people in the world. So we'll eventually become extinct as will all creatures as the same reality applies to dogs, cats, horses etc.

I flipped A#/Dice as well as changing A# to a win at the last minute before sending. So in that sense, I still got 2 MG from A#... but seriously, those results on ME/Half, that's just poor luck. I'm happy with my performance for the first time this season
S5x... the show's stabilized into something decent now, I guess...
