What this means is that the higher you were predicted to end up by d_rock97, the lower you were likely to be in the pre-rankings

I got a vote! I got a vote! Probably the highlight of my tournament.

Ozo, It's still early, I'm interested in seeing your top 10 predictions.

Ha, I can't show favoritism/bias as commissioner :)

I think the pre-ranking formula does a pretty good (not perfect) job.

I am amazed that this is the first ballot with jbohrman on it

I'm surprised how few ballots had skunk on, considering he's ranked 5th

+1 to that

Bold man. I thought about putting myself in the top 10. Then I thought it might actually be nice to win that free team.

Bold & beautiful, d_rock. Though your choice for #5 seems a little more 7 gram_rock than d_rock. Highlight of my tournament for sure.,

So far my picks for my best and worst teams are spot on

^ My best team is my worst and my worst team is my second best.

all my teams but one feel like my worst team... my bullpens are bright red angry awful, like a burn from falling off a motorcycle. i havent done this very long, but i had a reliever at 22%... at that point we need the defibrillator... i hated the first 3 or 4 days of this, but now i kinda like the organized carnage. or i'm doing it wrong and i'm bored.

Only 6 of the 12 owners who said they'd definitely make Round 2 will actually make it (skunk206, doctorcc, ozomatli, justinlee_24, brianjw, d_rock97)

Either 11 or 12 of the 22 owners who said they had a 50/50 shot will make it (wink0094, Jtpsops, beauchamp, pkearns, 06gsp, tigerrott, jfranco77, mensu1954, ejstockman, dougpalm, milest, and maybe NebHusker)

Only 2 of the 24 owners who said they'd make it if they got lucky will make it (schwarze, thehuseman)

The remaining 4-5 owners who made Round 2 did not vote

In my defense, I answered the poll questions right after my abysmal start, where at one point, I was ranked behind tridentric.

Little could have I predicted that when I voted a 50/50 chance of making it to the second round that it was a literal chance. WS Game 7 of my last team, win in, lose out. And it was the team I thought would do the best, though I think we made the playoffs on the last day, just barely.

Has schwarze ever not made the second round? Always underselling himself :P.

I nailed the team I was most confident in, with my $90M team. It was my only team that won a WS.
