Not that it will help me here, but my 70M team from Round 1 just won the TOC

Posted by fooolishfool on 1/21/2017 7:46:00 PM (view original):
I think the drafts are kinda equalizing. Particularly decreasing salary seems hard to screw up.

And yet I managed to screw it up royally, so there's that.

Only two series left and, in terms of points, I could finish anywhere from 3rd to 14th (though I suspect my max is actually closer to 6th or 7th since there are series where two people in front of me are playing each other, so somebody will have to get those points).

I was going to do another standings update this morning, but I see that there are a bunch of LCS series tied at 3-3. Excluding the 120M theme (which is behind due to the 1-game playoff), the other 5 leagues only have 4 World Series teams determined. The other 6 teams will be determined this afternoon.

4 Leagues done.... Will update standings once all six finish.

Congrats to WaitNSee! Not only has he won 3 straight Championships, but his performance this year was record breaking --> most points and biggest margin of victory. Not a surprise he is retiring from this tournament... it's no longer challenging to him.

I submitted a ticket to pay out the prizes.

Congrats to glowguy as well. Jumping from a pre-rank of 70 to a Top 10 finish is very impressive

Congratulations WaitNSee. It was an honor finishing a distant, distant second to the tournament master.

Thanks Oz, but Doctorcc moving from 40 to 2 is probably even more impressive.

All hail WaitNSee- the stuff of legends! I understand your retirement from this tournament but I do hope you make a return at some later date.

I would like to thank schwarze for running this great tournament. I also want to thank everyone who participated in this tournament. The best thing in this tournament, in my opinion, is not about winning a $250 prize. It is about the opportunity to play with the top SLB players.

Doctorcc: I am really impressed by your terrific performance in this tournament. Too bad I have very good luck in the WISC tournaments. I think you have a very good chance to win the next WIS championship.

glowguy: Thanks for your kind words. I will come back when you win a WIS championship.lol.

discodemo: You deserve a WIS championship. I was very lucky to beat you in my first WISC appearance. And, please forget about the "hate" thing cause it is supposed to be fun to play with a bunch of great SLB players in this tournament.

buddhagamer: I was wondering why my teams won so many games. Then you pointed out your teams contributed a lot to my wins. You will have better luck in the next WISC tournament.

Oz: I believe that, you are going to win a WIS championship in three years if you can do better in live draft leagues. I just do not understand why you only finished 9th. GL in your future WISC tournaments.
