Question
We can either play the way we did last time, where each win of a category equals a win overall OR we could do it as 1 win per game (like football does). In other words, if you win more categories than your opponent, you get 1 win. Personally, I like the One Win system as it really highlights the individual matchups, but I'm fine with either. One win does make it so that one guy who wins 9-1 is the same as someone who wins 6-4, but that evens out over time I think.Last edited by zoraster on Fri Feb 22, 2013 1:43 pm, edited 1 time in total..-

I prefer the old way, but I can't say I'm vehemently opposed to 1 win per game.Ski mask? Check! Sawed off? Check! Guilty conscience, fear of death? Check! Check! Check!

The following is a description of why I lean toward One Win. But I'm spoilering it because I want everyone to realize that I'm merely leaning this way. Sometimes I think when I make an argument for one thing or another it comes across as me trying to strong arm my way into things (see the MS Football Auction this year), when really I'm just floating ideas and putting forth my one way of looking at it. I am not heavily invested in this at all, and as commissioner I am here to serve you, not the other way around.
Spoiler: That said, this is why I lean One Win
Anyway, again. Please take all that for what it's worth, which is merely me explaining why I lean toward One Win. But I don't want anyone to think that doing the other way is bad at all, so feel free to speak up..-

By the way, I checked and the top 6 (playoff teams) would not necessarily have changed under One Win, though their order would have somewhat.
1. Locke Lamora 14-6-1
2. Gorc's Dorks 13-8
2. Kmd 12-7-2
4. Mastermind 12-8-1
5. Bluberry 10-8-3
6. Zoraster 10-9-2
7. Montreal's Herons 10-10-1
8. Canadians 9-10-2
9. Rhinox 8-10-2
10. AGARRRR 7-12-2.-

I'll be glad to widen my experiences and my learning by trying out different wincons.Paraphrasing a role PM takes seconds, fabricating a good fakeclaim takes an eternity.

mastermindIs there any chance you could make [Sun Mar 17th Early Afternoon (2-4)]? As it stands now, it appears to be the most universal choice (6 availables, 1 inconvenient, and you at 100% can't make). All the other spots have at least two inconvenients+at least one 100% can't make.
Mar 17th Late Afternoon (4-6) would work too if you could swing it. That would mean that kmd would 100% not be able to be there, but given his work situation, that might be the case anyway.
Neither of those times has a single person who PREFERS that time, but lots of people are available for it.
Locke
What's your story for [Sat Mar 9th Early Evening (6-8)]? got a hot date? It'd also be a good time to do it, as 4 people prefer it, 1 more is available, and you're marked as "probably can't." It's inconvenient for Anix, though. What time do you need the draft done by?
AGAR
What time do you get off work or whatever on Saturdays? When's the earliest draft start you could make?
You can see the spreadsheet results here: Spreadsheet. As you can see, I'm available at pretty much any time, but my wife is in Hawaii the 9th and 10th, so it'd be a great time to do it for me..-

See, the 2-4 is "inconvenient" rather than "100% can't" because I could technically leave one job early for a draft at 2pm and then leave the draft early to get to my other job. But I'm not sure i'd actually do all that. Probably depends on how much there is to do at the first job. Did we confirm that a tues/wed evening (or even night) isn't possible?KMD is the coolest dude who ever lost a bet to me - vonflare-

Well, I think I'll be up early on Sunday, so even if we were to start at 6 EST, there's no way the draft is getting done before midnight for me and could potentially be a lot later, depending on how slow people are. I technically could do it (as long as you're not going to start it at 8), it would just be an impractical time.
KMD: what do you mean by evening? As with above, anything after 6 EST is pushing it for me, but I could maybe do 6 on a Wednesday.If ya smell what The Locke is cookin'!

Never o'clock?
I really can't say with any certainty, though I usually make it a point to just bolt by 7.
I'm a broke part-timer who doesn't have labor laws breathing down my neck. If they ask me to work a 16 hour shift, I'll likely do it.Ski mask? Check! Sawed off? Check! Guilty conscience, fear of death? Check! Check! Check!

A big thanks for organizing this, BTW. The leagues are a lot of fun. I owe you one.Paraphrasing a role PM takes seconds, fabricating a good fakeclaim takes an eternity.
