12/13/13 -- RESULTS
« on: December 13, 2013, 07:57:46 PM »
Here is Katt Williams to describe today's lineup:


I just don't know what to say.  I guess Adam got mad after DJTorgo picked Line 'em Up last week or something.  If it wasn't for Freeze Frame showing up last, we would all be in trouble.

Four people picked ?Switch? over Do the Math.  Chad1787, PriceFan985, vadernader, and wildbill0962 each get an additional $10,000 for that call, taking their bonus money today to an even $100,000.

I had Bonkers on my list of possibles, but I went with Freeze Frame instead.  Adam decided to play both.  Our three-named friend, john cage bubblegum, actually picked Bonkers.  He gets $50,000.

It's hard to believe that somebody actually won this week, but here are the results:

Our third-place finisher scored 4 MP/16 CP off of his lone pick of Freeze (rS/rR).  That was Flerbert419!

Our runner-up also scored 4 MP/16 CP, but he picked two games correctly--PAP (wS/rR) and Freeze (wS/rR).  For an unprecedented third game in a row, it's DJTorgo!

But 4 MP/20 CP was apparently enough to win this week's game.  He also picked PAP (wS/rR) and Freeze (wS/rR), but he was more confident than DJTorgo.  This is his first season playing FPG and he has his first gold medal.  (Lucky duck.  I've been playing for 8 years and I'm still waiting for a gold medal.)





















It's whammy007!

See you next week!

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".

I tried to make sure I got points this week by picking six car games and end up not picking either one.
 
Never using that strategy again.

I'm gonna have to call some people out here... I'm supposed to be the guy who makes everyone else look good. Not the one who wins.  :P

Seriously though, that was completely unexpected. Given that I started my FPG career just about a month ago with a 0/0, just getting up to 4/20 is a plus, let alone finishing on the podium.

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