Oh damn it was Rinse not Pete. :eek:

I'm ok with simming the way to the playoffs and if i get in I get in. Not sure I want to play Rinse if it means my last 6 games would be the simit option anyway.

I would actually like for you to play your series with Rinse ASAP if you guys can, because that series can actually determine both of your playoff fates
Athletics-Rangers is also a big series




and for the new page...


Today is the 25th. It's deadline day.

I haven't heard from anybody anywhere requesting any kind of extension. As far as I know, no games have been scheduled ahead of time, and since I made the announcement last Sunday and again earlier this week, there's been little movement on the games completed front. So I'll give until tonight for those with several games remaining to at the very least schedule their games before I officially move on.

And on Sunday that will be the beginning of the 11th week of the season, so we are definitely not extending past that.

As of now, this is the seeding.

NL:
1. Marlins
2. Braves
3. Mets
4. Angels

AL:
1. Rockies
2. Yankees
3. Rangers
4. Athletics

Who the hell knows what'll happen when we try to go to the playoffs, but if I had to start another season to get it to work, that's what the seeding would be.

An overall update of the picture:

NL:
Marlins 23-3 (3) (Division leader)
Braves 23-6 (0) (Wild Card leader)
Mets 15-9 (5) (Division leader)
Angels 13-10 (6) (Division leader)
Bobs 14-9 (6)
Brewers 11-7 (11)
Dodgers 11-10 (8)


Dodgers: Brewers (2), Athletics (1), Mets (2), Reds (3)
Mets: Dodgers (2), Giants (3)
Cubs: Brewers (3), Padres (3)
Angels: Padres (3), Brewers (3)



AL:
Rockies 21-6 (2) (Division leader)
Yankees 20-7 (2) (Division leader)
Rangers 16-6 (7) (Division leader)
Athletics 15-10 (4) (Wild card leader)
Pirates 16-10 (3)
Red Sox 11-12 (6)
Rays 11-11 (7)

Rockies: Tigers (2)
Yankees: Blue Jays (2)
Rangers: Reds (1), Royals (3), Athletics (3)
Athletics: Dodgers (1), Rangers (3)
Red Sox: Blue Jays (3), Rays (3)
Rays: Tigers (1), Padres (3), Red Sox (3)

I'm here. I played a full series a few days ago. More than happy to play ours...maybe tomorrow night? It's a bit late for me and I need to get some sleep.

Well that's great. Come in, demand the Royals, and then check out on the league without telling anyone.

Dibs on the Royals! I'm garbage, so you guys can enjoy watching them be cellar dwellers.

Goddamnit on a 3 game losing streak. team doesn't know how to hit the fucking ball anymore.

gg's bruh. i almost blew that 1st game so badly.... 3 run lead into the bottom of the 9th and you get the bases loaded. thank god i threw that guy out at the plate. don't think i could have recovered from that.

in the 2nd game, kershaw is just too OP. his pitches go where i want them to about 90% of the time and so its easy to paint the corners. plus even shit in the strike zone with contact made doesn't usually go anywhere. we had the elusive double no-hitter going into the 6th!

i could probably play the final game of the series tomorrow night if you are around

Yeah I'm free all night if we haven't advanced and Lan Don Mik wants to knock out series out. Looks like the Pirates should actually be the wild card leader right now

I'm not sure if the Pirates sold their game yet, but he said he basically didn't want to be in the playoffs but was still willing to finish out the season. Since he has two guys in his division in the heat of the race I figured it'd be best to let him cash in on his trade-in deal since he gave me the courtesy of letting me know ahead of time he was going to sell the game after the season.

If the Chicago-Boston and Texas-Oakland series gets played we'll know a lot more, so I'd like for those to be done...unless you guys really don't give a shit! Then I'm happy to do a simit!

And why would I want them?

If any of my games really matter I'm sure I can find some time to get those in even though I suck so hard in this league and have little fun playing it lol

Well shit....

Cubs are 1 game ahead of the Angels and their remaining games are the same two opponents, and both of those aren't around anymore...

This means the Bobs have made the playoffs, unless you guys can both get the Padres and Brewers out to play



And I think if the Athletics go 2-2 in his last 4, his spot is secure. Rinse can't afford to lose anymore I think

So I think Boston-Tampa Bay and Oakland/Texas and the last game of Oakland/Dodgers should get played! Cause Tampa is still sort of in it too, but highly unlikely

Abrack, Lan Dong, are you guys planning on playing your games today? Because if not, then I'm just going to sim to end of the season

Rays are around all day, for the most part. Have to go to work sometime before midnight, and might have to take a nap too, but I'm not going anywhere today.

Also, if you're interested in a second season, post that you are. We'll do things better this time...going to have a flex leeway of 1 week instead of 3, and we will advance one week every Sunday, so that's 3 games a week. And I hope that it will make things run more smoothly.

So again, we are going to the playoffs tonight, and we aren't going to have any more postponements. So if you want to control your fate a little bit instead of leaving it to the sim gods, yall got all day.

I've turned off injuries now so I don't forget to do so before the sims.

we are going to the playoffs tonight

we are going to the playoffs tonight

we are going to the playoffs tonight

we are going to the playoffs tonight

we are going to the playoffs tonight



I hope that it's clear now lol

I'm down for season 2 if I can claim my Royals or if we're just fantasy drafting. I can't handle this Mariners madness.

I will also keep trying to improve but likely still suck, so I can sit out if that bothers folks too much. I don't want my bad skills to screw up playoff contention too badly.

You'll get the Royals, and hell nah man you're always welcome. You probably aren't as bad as you think are you are, just gotta keep getting more reps to get better!

And we will not do a fantasy draft.

This is kind of what I had in mind,

We started with 24, but I think these are the teams/owners that get cut from this season:
Royals (checked out)
Pirates (sold the game)
Brewers (doesn't like playing sim baseball)
Nationals (checked out)
Reds (quit)
Padres (checked out)

I think karish/tigers are still in, but I don't know? You didn't really post here all that much but once in a while I'd see you get your games played. so can you confirm with us?

We'll have 18 teams and 3 per division so it'll still be even

oh yeah so I'll assume you guys are keeping the same team unless stated otherwise. so far I've got mariners--->royals and red sox--->pirates

let's just say that no simulation has taken place even though it has been attempted

Ok so after a whole lot of fuckery that me and Crimson had to deal with, we're at the playoffs. Somehow. And the game actually did the seedings right.

So we basically just took the current standings and said whoever's in the playoffs now, is in, and since the game is fucking stupid and wouldn't let us sim games, we had to resolve. So we just gave wins to teams that were in and just did whatever.

So round 1....

Marlins (1) vs. Cubs (4)
Braves (2) vs. Mets (3)

Rockies (1) vs. Athletics (4)
Yankees (2) vs. Rangers (3)

He can't handle the playoff spotlight! I'm surprised my team didn't have any errors the way you were hitting the ball. We usually throw at least one away or drop at least one fly ball when we have so many opportunities

Great game like always man!

Oh yeah fuck Daniel Murphy!

Hey what the fuck

Pedroia is 11000 now and Hanley is in the upper 20s. WTF



Also, Cubs vs. Marlins begins tonight at about 9:15 CT. It will be streamed!
