The Summer Game | ZeeSoh has taken the lead with only the top 15 to reveal.... bring it on Chas!

Simionski   3,127,000

Position before top 15: 9th 

 Points required for top 3: 875k 

Points required for top spot: 1,029,000

 

Another big hitter steps up to the free throw line looking for the field goal that will take them to the Stanley Cup. If not for dropping out of the weeklies mid-summer, Simionski would have been right there fighting at the top and even now looks like making a strong case for a top 10 berth. 875k at this stage of the reveal is looking very perilous, surely we are only looking to see if top place will fall again...

Points required for top spot: 830k

 

A bit of a jump up to Mr. Pink means that we see the target for top spot dip below a million again for the first time in a few reveals. Mr. Pink's game was heavily propped up by a heroic run in the QOTW and some strong weekly results that meant he was able to battle his way up to 8th place despite a major ball drop with Preseason part D and a couple of questionable SOTM choices. With 830k the target for first, surely the only question here is now massive a gap can Pink build over the rest of the field...

It is the top spot, but maybe not by as much as one would have hoped. 4.2Million is a respectable final score and means a 2nd top 10 finish in 2 tries, but it possibly needed a little more to hit the true highest echelons...

A champion of both the people and the studios, predictions such as Shaft to make 121 million domestic, Hobbs and Shaw to hit 1 billion worldwide and Dora the Explorer to approach 400M, meant that this Nostradamus among Ignoramuses could see things that not even the ticket buying public or BOM actuals could see.

Another perennial favourite now and a player who rarely screws up this part of the game. with only 682k required to take the lead, surely the focus is squarely on whether he can put on enough pressure to crack to top 3...

The top spot is secure, but is it enough to rise up through the ranks? Saying that though, the only spot in the top 5 wrath has never finished in is 4th so...

And here we have another consistent threat in this game. Looking at a target of 1 million points to take the lead, this is going to be very tight and with 3 more players still to reveal, there is little room for a misstep; 14/15 is a must, 15/15 would possibly fuel a run at even winning the whole thing. But what was the result...

Kayumanggi has played I think every game I have hosted winter and summer. He is always in the running with strong weekly scores and then preseason just doesn't quite work out. In the most recent winter game, they came 4th for the second time by a heartbreaking 50k, but this time the situation is stronger than it has ever been. Comfortably 3rd with a 150k lead over Jake and Wrath going into this reveal and a very very achievable target of 844k to guarantee a top 3 finish and maybe even more if Sheikh or Zeesoh wobble...

And with Kayu's wobble, and Jake and Wrath putting in very strong, but not truly stunning scores, it is down to a 2 horse race.... Sheikh vs Zeesoh. 

 

Back in the most recent Winter Game, these two were also the final two to reveal (that time Sheikh was the leader going into the top 15. In that reveal, Sheikh posted one of the weakest top 15's of the entire Winter Game and it ultimately cost him the title as he had to settle for 2nd place. This Summer, the preseason has not been kind to him and he has seen a dominating position slowly slip and stumble until now he finds himself the underdog. 

 

I'd be shocked if the score dropped low enough to keep Jake in the lead (he's not me), but will it be high enough to keep up the pressure on Zeesoh?

It's a very strong score. The 5th best of the game so far. This puts pressure on Zeesoh, any slip and Sheikh has the title in his hands... It's all down to the final reveal...

 

 

 

[chasmmi]

 

Zeesoh  4,298,000

Position before top 15: 1st 

 Points required for top 3: 440k 

Points required for top spot: 911k

 

 

It all is down to this, but first a story.... Back on March 8th, @JJ-8 handled the final reveal for the Winter Game. In that Zeesoh was placed 2nd going into the final table. And it wasn't just 2nd place, it was a super strong 2nd place, so strong that even matching the 4th lowest score for a top 15 would have still seen them secure 3rd place. Now that game was won by an inspired Simionski final 15. but another big story was the implosion of Zeesoh as they plummeted from 2nd place with an easy 3rd place minimum a formality, down to 5th as they posted the worst score of any player for a top 15. 

 

Well here we are again in a similar situation. A strong final 15 will win them the whole game. An average, even a disappointing score can secure top 3, but if they repeat winter and post the lowest score of this reveal, crashing out of the top 3 is a possibility yet again....

 

So without further ado, or any more shenanigans, the final score for Zeesoh is...

Thank you to everyone that played, sorry the results were a little slower coming out than usual, but I do hope to see you all for the Winter game that is planned to run this year between November 1st and February 17th weekend. 

 

 

[Jake Gittes]

Congrats and thanks to y'all for being such worthy competition, even if there's unfortunately fewer of us than in previous years.

 

@MrPink I shall await your revenge.

I'm getting closer to bingo, just need a 9th and a 10th

and a 1st, a 2nd and a 3rd...) 

 

[Wrath]

YES! 4th! I am very pleased! Thank you to Jake for beating me by the smallest of margins to keep the dream alive. Also, congratulations to Zeesoh on a fiercely fought victory and to Sheikh for a powerful 2nd place finish.

 

Kudos to everyone for playing well, and a special thanks to Chasmmi and JJ-8 for running such a wonderful game! Also, thank you to Captainwondyful and Sheikh for their scoring, along with everyone else who helped keep things moving along. My work schedule tightened up on me at the end, but hopefully I'll be able to contribute a bit more with the scoring next time.

 

See you in the Winter Game!

[ZeeSoh]

My FIRST VICTORY!

 

Thanks first to @chasmmi and @JJ-8 for another Summer game smoothly run. I had a great time and will surely return for the Winter edition. 

 

Thanks also to @Sheikh @captainwondyful @BobDole And any one else that I may be forgetting who helped score the game. 

 

You were a very strong competitor Sheikh and for a long time I thought you would easily win given how commanding your performance in weeklies were. Congrats on another strong performance and congrats to all others who played

My reaction to finishing second again:

 

Congrats @ZeeSoh. Thanks to @chasmmi and @JJ-8 for running things, and everyone who helped with scoring.

 

You all probably already figured this out, but I'm very competitive and like winning things, so I'll be back.
