Thanks! I think you're right, but I'll wait for the official count to come in before I plan my parade.

Oh yeah, and congratulations to hooon, who pulled it out in dramatic fashion to become the 2010-2011 Weekend Picks Champion!! And as last year's winner I also get the pleasure of handing over the belt:



FINAL STANDINGS 2010-2011 WEEKEND PICKS
(the entire season's picks can be found in this file)

[seeinred]

Haha, sweet. A lot of big scores this weekend, but it's nice to win the final week. That's 21/26 games picked correctly, too; my x2 game was wrong.

More importantly, huge congrats to hooon. What a finish, what a win.

Lastly, and most importantly, a big, big thank you to kook for putting this together and sticking with it through the whole season. Besides Dan Bylsma, I'm not sure what roles anyone else played, but thanks to anyone else involved. Can't wait until next season; It's always a blast.

[Echolalia]

Good year, gang. Congrats to the champ and thanks again to Kook, Dan Byalsma and Motown.

Personally, I'm proud of my 25th place. I ended the season on a pretty high note with three weeks of good picking.

[Dan Bylsma]

great come from behind victory hooon !


Gowings1905,great season,you've been one of the elite few the past couple of years.I remember 3 first place finishes in a row by you last season,awesome !

The high scores really surprised me of all weeks with intensities of the teams hard to figure

[hooon]

WOOHOO! I won something! Sweet belt! Thanks to the WINGS for winning today and getting me the win!

Thanks guys for the congrats, it was a fun finish for sure. Good job Gowings, it could have gone either way at the end. HUGE thanks to kook for putting this together and taking the time to do it every week!

LGW!

WTF, I got second place this week?!?! Sweet!!! That's like a miracle for me! Overall, I'm pretty happy with what I got, considering I missed a ton of weekends. When I decided to pick back up, I had 10 or 11 points, and now I have 116, so yay!

Congrats, hooon! That is a sweet belt! Thanks to everybody who put this together - this was my first year, and I had a lot of fun! I'll definitely be back for the playoffs and next season!

[ricky0034]

7th place

was fun will probably do it again next season

congrats hoon/thanks kook

[Aussie_Wing]

Gee, some monster scores this week! And here I was thinking my 15 was a good score, turns out it’s on the lower end of the scale! I went for a few risks such as Chicago the double up today as I figured we’d lose AND no one would’ve gone against Detroit. Glad to get that one wrong though! I really slipped down the standings over the past few weeks, I was inside the top 10 for most of the season and I dropped down to 17th! Not good!

Huge thankyou to kook, I know how much time and effort this game takes, so thankyou for all your hard work throughout the season. And thanks to DB, who again chipped in, plus anyone else who helped out over the course of the season. The results always got posted in quick fashion and the neatly formatted standings were a great addition.

And lastly, congrats hoon, you were so consistent all season, thoroughly deserved win! Look at your final three weeks, 16, 16, 18, massive finish!

[Batigol2k]

Wish I had finished in the top 10...but 12 is not that bad.

Congrats to hooon!

thanks Aussie_Wing,talking about slipping down,I caught the same bug that you did and at the same time.I noticed during the season you and I had similar methods in making our picks.I think after what happened the past 4 weeks I'm going to have to change that formula slightly.I've been stubborn to make changes in the past.
It's been a strange couple of weeks,I started out 11/12 this week and still hadn't gotten to my x2 pick yet and finished almost in last place lol

[kook_10]

Hey guys - I had a couple ideas for tweaks next season - lemme know what you think. I thought maybe we could, in addition to picking your own double game, have a featured matchup every week (maybe the early HNIC game or something) that is also worth double, and also make Wings games double (forcing us to not just blindly every week). Maybe we could have separate awards for overall points, straight points, bonus picks too. This year we started with 87 players and ended with like 35. I figure the more bonus points are in the competition, the more we can keep players from being out of the running by the all star break.

I'm not going overboard when I say that over the past 10 weeks, I don't think I'd have a 20% strike rate on my x2 game. It's cost me big time, it's an easy way to get an extra point, and I virtually threw it away every week.
