The Stingray Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Don't give up. Play for fun and try to finish top 20. Come back next year and then bust people up. "Stingray, do you hate Tele?" "Hate? No. I pity the fool and I will destroy any man who tries to take what I got." On a serious note, how many points of the preseason questions are left to be scored? Like 25%? And approximately how many weeks of questions are left? And thanks for the encouraging words. But I don't know what I will do. I feel distraught right now.

baumer Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 There is more than half the game left. There are about another 10 sOTM questions, more than half the preseason questions and all your top 15 and so on. This is also a game of attrition. You will place high just by playing every week. And you are going to beat me and Fake and 24Lost this year and we finished top 3 last year. So what do you have to be distraught about?

baumer Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 Second place? Really? You guys must all be doing terrible this year if I made it that high. Nice try asshole. You were one of the best players last year. No one talked about you but you were consistent week in and week out. I even made a comment about you in the year end comments. Your good showing this year doesn't surprise me one bit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then there was this little unknown player who came out of nowhere (but unfortunately didn't qualify for the end because she didn't start at the beginning) and finished very strong. That was Olive, who has proven to be one of the best players on a week to week basis. You really got the players to take notice of you last year Olive and now you are proving that you were not a flash in the pan. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
