conggrats to ltb. and just wondering who was uvasooner and what happend to him?

someone else could probably answer that better than me...he was dominating draft leagues right when i started playing in them...always had 2 teams too, so it was twice the beatings...left a while back when the sim was probably at its lowest

Yeah.  UVA was extremely dominant in all leagues but especially this one.  He just had it down.  He seemed to leave without really saying anything.  Sad times.

Thanks for the congrats.  First time I've even gone deep into the playoffs in this league.  (Used to do better in the ODL, before the last big sim overhaul.)  The core players meshed just like I hoped - which rarely happens.

I've wondered if/when uvasooner will materialize again.  qistat, too. 

I didn't see the runner-up update

congrats to longtallbrad for winning the 52m XLI championship...the longtime vet took a break from the league then came back strong to win his first ever title in this league

nate, as he predicted, crushed the ppg record....the team struggled but you cant fault mvp wilt....just 2 pts shy of 50...didnt think he could average that many

Yes congrats to Brad.

Actually it was 49.0ppg, so Wilt missed it by 1 point per game. Blew the 50ppg with the Love pick and my entire team fouled WAY more than IRL, (Love +22, McMillan +37, Wilt was +44, and Bogues +50,) I had a similar issue in yr 1 of the PPL when Lucas was like +80 fouls on the season. Lesson = the SIM will generate a certain number of fouls no matter how few you draft and you can only trade-off so much D for fewer fouls before you lead the league in points allowed like I did.

51 L's, not much fun, hoping the lottery brings some good luck my way. TO's for me are down right now in the ODL, my drafted TOV% is not that great, but I drafted plenty of RL possessions, thinking the individual penalty drives TO's in the sim even more than the TOV% does. Guess I'll be testing that theory in the next version of this league.

whoops..sorry nate...was looking at mpg and not ppg

I had a runner up team that got swept by a uvasooner team at the beginning of his 3 in a row championship streak. I believe. 

i remember once when both of his teams made it into the finals... can't remember who won, though.

I think he beat himself a couple of times, actually.  The guy str8 dominated this ****!

Congrats on your second championship in this league ash. 

thanks, vance!  I don't remember who was runner-up last season... sorry

UVA's classwork increased to the point he no longer had time for WIS.

Jakotay and UVA were facebook friends.  That info comes from him.

No idea what happened to qistat.  He dropped out for a long time, reappeared briefly, then left again.  Has not been back since.

Here is a list I found from 2007 of the people in the six leagues I was in at the time. (ODL, Gym Rat, UPL, KFunk52. Luck of the Draw, and HRL (don't remember what that was))

I am sure this was used for BOWIS recruiting.

There were 80.  Only six by my count are still around.  That will drop to five in two weeks when I leave after the HDP concludes.

wow - really only six of those guys left? I see a lot of names on there I haven't seen in a while, but can't remember if I came across them from simleague basketball or one of the other WIS games (trtllvr, willprosper, zlionsfan, cenquest, cyrisnyte are a few of the ones I'm thinking of)

I see 11 that I'm in leagues with or have been recently. Regardless, that's crazy.
