CSS Results for June 1 (First Round of Playoffs)

[BuddyTom]

Well, well, well, well. Quite a few surprises today. First a showcase with a Hi-Lo trailer that I swear must have gone up in price since we last saw it (I had it priced at $22K, and how much could that other stuff have been??) Then a Splendido! showcase helped to cinch in a victory in the battle of the season. umbchockeypa08 had the only tragic overbid (less than $600) and is out.

The BIG UPSET of the day was LudwigMackdaddy's victory over PriceFan985, the top-ranked CSS player. Despite rcbought's excellent bid on SC2, he garfed more than BuddyTom on Splendido and is out. You won't hear me complaining too loudly.

So, here are the pairings and who came out on top (winners in bold)

Jordanar18 vs. Robair
Gatorman vs. Joe_Mello
Forrest20 vs. NCC_2000
namnhu12 vs. rodroddyfan
PriceFan985 vs. LudwigMackdaddy
umbchockey08 vs. FPGWillyT
BuddyTom vs. rcbought

AND

PriceFanArmadillo vs. heelsrule1988

I really wish I had played Armadillo later in the playoffs, because this would've been an even bigger win for me than it already was. Still, it's always nice when I beat Armadillo, so I'll take it. Tom, you better be ready for me.

Also, major props to Ludwig for pulling off the biggest shocker ever. I guess PF985 really is human, after all. But, humble as always, he was gracious in defeat and congratulated Ludwig on a job well done. Got to love that.

[umbchockeypa08]

Well, I went for it, and got burned. Hey, at least it was fun to just make the playoffs this year, and I'll be back for another run in '06-'07!

I am still in shock.. and cgts. to all today --   I am indeed putting my George Mason Univ.  shirt on.  

 ANd again can we point out not only HOW gracious PFan985 is about his excellence -- but how nice he was today--- his grace would do well to be emulated by all of us.


Good Luck as we go to round 2.

[Jordanar18]

Jeez... one of my lowest scores of the season; I consider myself lucky.

[Gatorman]

Once I realized I had the highest bid out of all the competitors, I thought I was in trouble. Guess not. Congratulations, Joe, you gave it a good shot.
