Truly sorry I've dropped the ball on the leaderboard guys. Once the grammies came around and intimidated me, things haven't gotten back on track. But I'm getting them rerailed just in time for the playoffs. Didn't realize it'd been that short of a season, but the late start is probably the reason for that. As usual, here's a refresher for how playoffs work:

Key cash will not be awarded, nor will the normal scale of FPG points and cash. Everything else is still in play, however - the 1/2/3/4 point bonuses, NCFAC picks (if you have any left) and the six-for-six cash award can still be earned. There's a lot of NCFAC picks still out there, so don't be afraid to use them, they don't rollover into next season. To keep things simple, we're taking anyone who played at least 6 games.

Here's how the schedule will work:

Qualifying Round: May 21, 2021 (#9445K)

> The top 14 MP/CP scorers will advance to the quarterfinals.
> You must score at least 1 MP to advance, so it is possible that less than 14 players do so.
> Players eliminated in this round receive no bonus points or cash.

Quarterfinals: May 28, 2021 (#9455K)

> The top eight MP/CP scorers advance to the semifinals.
> You must still score at least 1 MP to advance.
> Eliminated players receive 30 points and $75,000 on the leaderboard.

Scrimmage: June 4, 2021 (#9465K)

> Don't want to worry about spoilers interfering with the game, so this is just a regular scrimmage.
> Would like to make it count for the regular season, but worry it may be too confusing.

Semifinals: June 11, 2021 (#9475K)

> The top four MP/CP scorers advance to the finals.
> You must still score at least 1 MP to advance.
> Eliminated players receive the following...

     8th place: 70 points and $200,000
     7th place: 80 points and $300,000
     6th place: 90 points and $400,000
     5th place: 100 points and $500,000

The Finals: June 18, 2021 (#9485K)

> Finalist bonuses are as follows...

     4th place: 125 points and $750,000
     3rd place: 150 points and $1,000,000
     Runner-Up: 200 points and $1,500,000
     Grand Champion: 300 points and $3,000,000

We've got a few backup games in case we lose a game due to any sort of preemeption, but we should be okay. We can always do more scrimmages too, so they won't go totally to waste,  In any case, good luck to all those participants and may the best FPG player win.
