how many go to oblivion?

Oblivion is by vote, I believe.
Probably best to read the constitution.

Hope I'm not jumping the gun, but I nominate Monkey to stay and avoid oblivion.

 

[Bandit]

Okay we got all kinds of questions here and I'll try and hit all of them. Foot's 100 points are figured into the stats that I did. If you look at ESPN he actually only has 1176.7 points, so the B league is getting credit for his full amount and that is why we put the rule that way in the constitution, so it doesn't penalize the whole league, just the team that was naughty.

The bottom 2 of the B league always are up for the oblivion vote next year and then anybody else that was put there for rules violations. So this year right now there will be 3: Foot, and the bottom two of the power rankings which will will two of either Monkey, BK, or EHB.

Sammy whether 2 teams move up or 4 teams move up the Super Bowl champion always moves up. It is actually first in the list of teams moving up and breakdown record is 2nd, but breakdown record is decided at the end of week 14 and we don't know who the Super Bowl champ is until week 16 so that's why we call it the golden ticket to the A league.

Oblivion doesn't mean that you are out of the league or anything. All it means is that those owners are part of the vote next year. We ask for additional nominations and let's say that Ritzarmy gets nominated and actually fills out the profile this year and agrees to the constitution. That would mean that Foot, Ritz, and the bottom two will be voted on by the members to see who fills the 3 vacant spots. Now, that doesn't mean that we won't have more than that. Last year it ended up working out perfect because we had three nominees (Stomp, EHB, and Femuruv) and we ended up with three vacancies (Stomp from the bottom two, Micro from the bottom two who wasn't getting back in, and Chef retired his spot) so we didn't even have to vote last year.

Well, the 3 peeps that are in for Oblivion (EHB, Monkey and BK) should not be sent away IMO. @The Foot

That's another matter that will take me another few months to process..........

Dilly Dilly! You are a true friend of the Kingdom!

 

[TREFF]

If Foot put his line up B would have 100 more points.

@The Foot put your line up. We should be 4 moving up not 2

There will be next year, me, and 3 jabronis smart enough to climb on my back

Man of all weeks to have totally shitty match ups.............don't think I'll be a lot of help.............

 

[leftypower]

Well, unless I'm a moron and forgot how to add and subtract - we 'B's' are still 200pts up. .... keep it rolling guys !!!! 168 is the magic number if memory servers

Damn right, let’s kick some A league ass and do something historical.

Dilly Dilly!

 

[Yellow Fuzzies]

Good luck B leaguers. I believe that this is the first year that I am at risk of moving down. Should be interesing.

Heck yeah. Some really good real football matchups this week also. Should be a awesome weekend.

 

[obxyankeefan]

One and done for my A league career. For those of you who do move up, try and do a little better then that.

Week 13 Standings

​

Okay guys here are your standings. The A league gained just a little bit more ground on the B league last week and they now trail by only 189.7 points for the season. So if the A league can beat the B league by more than 21.7 points this week, then only two teams would move down instead of four (which is the only prayer I have of staying up).

Playoffs right now

#1 seed Ram (9-4, winner of Aramis division and better breakdown record than Face)
#2 seed Face (9-4, leader of Athos division)
#3 seed Milk (8-5 and winner of the Porthos division and has clinched this seed)
#4 Tlance (8-5 and better breakdown record than Steelers)

#5 Steelers (8-5)

Playoff scenario in the A league is simple. Ram, Face, and Milk have already clinched playoff births and the winner of the Steelers vs. Tlance game this week clinches the last spot.

Since the #1 seed is really the only one that matters:

Ram clinches it if he wins and Face loses or if he wins, Face wins, and he keeps his breakdown lead over him (it's 2.5 games right now).

Face clinches it if he wins and Ram loses, or if they both win and Face passes Ram in breakdown.

Tlance can't be the #1 seed, but he can still win the division if he wins and Face loses because he would have a better division record than Face. Steelers also can't be the #1 seed, but he would also win the division if he wins and Face loses because of better division record.

Steelers and Tlance face off this week with the winner making the playoffs and the loser just being a loser. LOL.

Relegation Station

Treff 4.5 power ranking (going out with a bang though as he had the highest A league score this week)

OBX 9 power ranking (would need a lot of help, most importantly would need to win his game and have Bandit and Trudem lose. He would have to make up a ton of ground. He realistically can only catch Treff in points and breakdown which would only gain two points for him)

Trudem 11.5 power ranking (Needs to win and have a really good breakdown week to be able to pass Milk and Fuzzy, but he is 55 points behind Joe for the next step up in points. Along with Bandit is probably going to need there to only be 2 teams relegated to be saved.)

Bandit 12 power ranking (needs to beat Fuzzy and have OBX lose, can't really catch anybody in breakdown and has an outside shot of catching Trudem in points)

Joe 16.5 power ranking (it would be a damn shame if the guy with the third best breakdown record right now somehow found himself in the bottom 4, but it could possibly happen, however, he would have to get passed by all three of the people directly below him in breakdown for it to be a possibility.

B League Playoffs Right now

#1 seed Harold (9-4 leader of the Ostrogoths division, better division record than Barilko)
#2 seed Femurov (8-5 leader of the Huns division, better division record than Shady)
#3 seed Sam (7-6 already clinched the Visigoths division)
#4 seed Barilko (9-4 only 9-4 wild card team)

#5 Lefty (8-5 and would need to beat Barilko and have the highest score in the league for the week while Barilko had the lowest score in the league, easy right. LOL)

#6 Shady (8-5 and can't win the wild card because he can't catch Barilko in breakdown. He would need Femurov to lose his game to Monkey and he would need to beat Stomp in order to win the division and make the playoffs)

Harold would clinch the #1 seed with a win because he would win the division with a better division record than Barilko and nobody else can catch him in breakdown. He would also clinch the #1 seed if Barilko loses. The only other team with a shot at the #1 seed is Barilko who would clinch it if he wins, Harold loses, and he catches him in breakdown.

Harold plays Foot and Lefty plays Barilko in the last week of the division of death to determine your playoff teams.

Golden ticket to the A league

Harold 94-49
Barilko 91-52

You guys are the only two that can win the breakdown title. Keep in mind that it is possible for you guys to tie and if that's the case then points would be the tie-breaker for who moves up automatically. If you tie in points it would go to head-to-head which you guys split 1-1, so let's just hope you don't tie in both categories or we might need a virtual coin flip.

Oblivion

Unfortunately I have to start this section by saying that Foot will be put up for oblivion vote at the end of the year due to his third lineup violation. He was also given a loss in the standings and given an 0-11 breakdown record for the week.

Monkey 7.5 power ranking
BK 8 power ranking
EHB 8 power ranking

BK and EHB play each other this week and since they are both tied right now in the standings, that game will probably determine which one goes up for oblivion and which one is safe. Now that's a big game.

Damn I must have misunderstood the part about Breakdown record overruling the ESPN tiebreaker? Need to go bone up on the constitution more often.

Great work per usual Bandit!

 

[averagejoe]

Per the constitution the nomination process starts in June.

@TKOSpikes vs. FaceLeeUs

In honor of Star Wars hitting theaters soon... and the fact that TKO stomped me 105-80 in week 3, I shall call this game:

"The Empire Strikes Back"

No Gronk makes VaderFace a happy Sith Lord.

Forgot to mention... But I will be gone from tomorrow until middle of next week. Goin down to Meheeeeco with the wife for a destination wedding near Playa Del Carmen (just south of Cancún). I'm sure some of you will want to warn me of the dangers, but rest easy my good men I will be staying at an all-inclusive resort with a group of 60+ people. And the resort will be handling us like luggage (i.e. picking us up from the airport, and all of our activities were booked through the resort) so we are essentially along for the ride. I know that doesn't mean I'm totally safe, just "safer". And I would like all of you to know:

The hotel has wifi so I will be able to check on my lineups but I have secured insurance in the form of my brother on standby to check on my lineups Sunday morning.

So don't fret fellow MBBRL-ites/ans... No need to worry about yours truly!

 

[tlance]

@Bandit or anyone else that knows the answer?

not looking forward to oblivion, but that's how it shakes out sometimes.
left too many pts on my bench, couldn't get out of my own way it seems

would also hate to see The Foot go, but if he takes my spot.........

I like @The Foot a lot and place high value on his role in the history of this league.

That said, if there has ever been cause to vote for an owner to be replaced, it is now. Fielding an illegal lineup 3 times in 1 season is a big deal, and this isn't a flukey accident like @obxyankeefan's 2 offenses. Foot has had at least 3 or 4 incomplete lineups in prior years also.

I like Foot, and I wish you well. I hope you will stick around and continue to post and take part in the community. But, I will be voting for you to be replaced and I strongly encourage everyone else to do the same. We can't have owners that neglect their roster to the extent that Foot has over the years.

i have been to Playa Del Carmen a few times, it is a beautiful area of this world. A few things to remember is
1 While you have Wi-Fi it is normally spotty.
2 Always be aware of your surroundings
3 If you are going to drink to excess, it is better to do it in your resort.
4 Most importantly have fun. You only get so many vacas, so take advantage when you do.

when i've brought up things like this, i feel like ive got squashed abit, but i agree i want active owners, what fun is it if there is no action............ive been busier than ive ever been in my life this season, so not as many trades, but lineups in
