CSS Results for May 21
« on: May 21, 2008, 02:17:14 PM »
THE END OF THE REGULAR CSS SEASON IS UPON US!!!

Today was the final playing of CSS in the regular season. Tomorrow, the playoffs begin. Everyone should still keep playing, but certain players will be given advantages onto their totals after two weeks. This all depends on the leaderboard standings that sideshowPA has promised to post sometime tonight, and there may be a bit of a shake-up after today's playing.

PriceFanArmadillo reminded me with his bids that I have tripled values for the last playing of the regular season in the past, which I have. So I did it again. Then things got interesting.

First showcase was a seemingly random assortment of not-very-expensive prizes (MacBook, digital camera, range) and then the Catalina 25' Yacht. This is the most expensive boat offered in daytime at $38,909 according to Jacob Wilkey's last price recap when it appeared back in January. Many people seemed to think it was still in the $32K range like it was last year (the price went up about $6K this year), some people just seemed to think it was an oversized West Wight Potter.

Then there's me. I DSWd. PriceFan985 came pretty close, and GoldenBulldog posted a nice difference too.

Second showcase: Ye olde dining room with china, electric piano, and hot tub. Some overbids, a garf or two, heelsrule1988 misses a DSW by $2! But Frank15 DSWs very nicely with a $52 difference.

So there you have it. Top two, cash winners of $188,256 each, and over 525 points each: Frank15 and I! :biggrin: Let's see where THAT puts things in the standings!

I guess if there was any time to get out of my slump, now was the time to do it. The key will be to keep this up for the next couple of weeks. I sure hope I can.

i stormy'd (which is understandable this time as i have a headache) today. the downside is that it will be harder for me to move up the monies board.

until tomorrow for the beginning of the playoffs...

Not the way I wanted to end the regular season. Oh well.

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.

Woohoo!  I convinced the host to give himself an extra $120,000!

Oh, and boy did I suck today or what?

Third time doing the CSS and I really underestimated Catalina boats, enough said.
