MBBRL Suicide League A vs. B Challenge

[Bandit]

Here is your updated standings through week 5. Right now the A league is ahead in 7 and the B league is ahead in 5 but they have the only undefeated team in Trudem. Largest point differential is Trudem over Treff 553.8 - 345.8 which is 208 points from the #12 draft spot. Closest point differential is between Lefty and Shady at the #2 spot which Lefty leads 464.3 - 440.8 for a 23.5 point difference.

@tlance lol at how we both agreed that my backup QB was so much better. You won that battle handedly on the week we needed to use our backups.

Doesn't matter.

Your team is too good.

Now with me losing OBJ, I got no shot. The Fournette Hunt combo is way too much.

B league back half of the draft outperforming A league back half, and vice versa for the front halves

kinda interesting

Okay guys so here are the updated standings for the challenge. I forgot to mention last week, but Trudem has already clinched the victory over Treff and now Milk has also clinched the victory over Tlance, so both of them will be in the playoffs. TKO, Ram, Foot, Steelers, Harold, and Monkey can all clinch with a victory this week. Remember that it's only an 11 week regular season because so many team will make the playoffs (12) with the top 4 getting byes in the first round.

A few notes: the A league is leading in 8 of the 12 matchups but the B league has the 2 highest scoring teams in Trudem and Milk.

Closest matchup right now is between Fuzzy and OBX which Fuzzy leads 4-3 and by 29.2 points.

Biggest blowout is Trudem over Treff and it just keeps getting worse, it is now a 306.1 point lead for Trudem.

Apparently the easiest spots to draft from were the #2 spot and the #5 spot which have over 100 points more combined than any other draft spot.

A league has outscored the B league by 137.6 points so far this year.

Some funny disparities in record. Milk is 6-1 in this challenge but only 3-4 in the standings with the 2nd most points. Ouch!!

Fuzzy is 6-1 in the standings but only 4-3 in the challenge and the guy he's playing is OBX who is 5-2 in the standings but only 3-4 in the challenge. Fuzzy's team has only had 498.9 points scored against it which is an average of 71.27 points per week.

Sorry @TREFF but glad I am finally getting you in something...

Just wondering but the scoring is different in these two leagues with the A League being a easier scoring system. Maybe a difference of 1-2 points a game.

When we went to decimal scoring a few years back, Milk never switched the receiving yards over. I keep forgetting this until we are in the middle of the season, then I notice again.

Well I'd say that makes a big difference. That really needs to be changed.

Didn't catch that... damn... my bad... the passing yards and Rushing yards are good... But receiving yards is not... wish that I saw that or that someone told me...

I said something a few years ago and we decided to change it the next year. We just keep forgetting and then it is too late to change it that year.

I fixed it.. again.. sorry for not catching that...

I know it's mid-season, but I really don't think anybody would have an issue with changing it, although I am not in that league so I leave it up to you guys.

 

[Bandit]

I checked it and it did effect one game, but I highly doubt they will care. Shady went from 2-5 to 3-4 and Ritz went from 3-4 to 2-5, but the total points did change significantly. I'll have to go back to each week's scores and update the challenge if anything changed. I'll only do it if any of the matchups the B leaguer lost by less than 3 points.

 

[Bandit]

Well shit I actually have to expand that a little bit because that also changes the receiving yards for running backs and tight ends, so technically it could make a 5.4 point difference if all 6 positions got .9 points.

 

[MilkSpiller22]

@tlance

a little more LOL for us... we no longer have a kicker... so we will have a hard time beating others in our own league...

 

[Bandit]

Okay, so now that the decimal scoring for receiving yards has been put in place in the B suicide, I'd say it makes quite a difference in the total points as now the B league actually holds a 70.5 point lead overall. It did change two of the games in the challenge. EHB pulled out a win against TKO 78.8-78 in week 2 and Femurov now beat Joe in week 5 (84.6-82.5) so that did change the leader of the Femurov vs. Joe battle. Because of the change, it also extended Trudem's lead over Treff to 324.8 points (sorry Treff I couldn't resist)

 

[TKOSpikes]

My season is hanging on by a Zeke thread.

Glad I protected my Rodgers investment though... if I had not, I would already be dead.

 

[TREFF]

my suicide squad reads like an "all bust team"
Matt Ryan, Ajayi, Blount, Michael Thomas, DT, Pryor, Marty Bennett, sebass, oakland.
Prescott can be my QB, but that ain't fixing anytging

 

[SmokingMonkey]

top notch updating on that scoring adjustment folks!

wish everything in life was fixed so quickly

 

[SteelersPride]

I still got confused on how I’m 7th
