FPG 06/08/18 - RESULTS
« on: June 09, 2018, 11:41:25 AM »
"Woo!"? More like "Yikes!"

I will get the picks up....but there's not a lot to see. Our 4th-6th players survive based solely on Most Expensive. 2000 got Pathfinder nailed, Kev got Pathfinder AND Time nailed, and Wayo got Pathfinder, Time, AND Cover nailed.

And then there's the rest of us. Not a good week. The good news for our 6 surviving players is next week we still go down to four - so we only lose two of you. Perhaps you all could just have one giant tie next week so all 6 of you can move on. Or, maybe you all will all wipe out and we will cancel the final. But I'm not bitter or anything.  :P

Awful time for a bagel. See you next season.

My score should be 6/12 - I also picked a Coming or Going win 2nd (with a confidence of 4).

But geez, I really lucked out here. I had forgotten Double Prices skipped the 8360s (and I would have picked it for sure over CoG had I remembered), and I nailed Pathfinder out of pure luck; I wanted to hedge with a third car game 5th - I had a choice between that, Pocket, Stack, and Gas - and I somehow picked correctly.
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.

Still wondering how I still made it after a lackluster effort in my picks; needless to say, this season has been my most successful one yet.
