Scumleague FF 2015 (Locke, Yiley, TD37!)

[Wraith]

Wait so why was I 7th in final despite being 5th at start of playoffs and winning out the consolation brackets?

[Yiley]

Probably the fact that you didn't win out in consolation bracket. The first round you lost 142-120

[Rhinox]

yay league 1 next year.

Fun little what if: had there been no divisions in league 2, Wraith would have been in the PO instead of PEG. Wraith would have won the league (beating me PO week 1 and beating yiley PO week 2), yiley 2, me 3, DDD 4, and PEG goes to 7th instead of wraith.

Oh. Meh, guess I wasn't really paying attention after the season ended.

[Kublai Khan]

I wasn't really paying attention after the season ended.

What a classic blunder!

[Rob14]

Thought that was Jason Alexander for a second then did one hell of a double take.

[mith]

After discussion with the L1 players who are staying up, it has been determined that Panzerjager will be relegated to L2 for his inactivity this season.

[Flameaxe]

I voted for you panzer

Ordering only matters for replacing upwards, and this year we had all of L1 return and not enough of L2/L3 for placement there to matter, but the complete ordering is provided in case we have enough returning or L1 drops.

Questions:
1)

Wasn't there talk about relegating Panzer for not setting his lineup for a while? Was a decision made on that?

ANSWERED
2)

Does mith get to use his L3 result to be in L2 next year or is that not fair because no one else had two teams? Note that his L2 team would be second in line to be L2 anyway if you remove his L3 team so this might not matter.

ANSWERED
3) Salamence is site banned and Yuriko didn't play. Am I right in assuming neither is welcome back next year? They are at the bottom anyway, so this is likely to be exclusively a L3 issue.

[mith]

First post is updated with the final brackets, and the spreadsheets are updated as well (just missing L1 consolation first round scores). See you next year!

[PokerFace]

Damn I wanted AFC North Division in League 2 next year. Panzer going inactive and not setting his lineup was bad but him coming back at end of season and playing well enough to avoid relegation should mean something.

[Flameaxe]

Also feels if panzer is getting DQd, the 9th place of L1 should have the spot over someone in L2. Panzers inactivity didn't have any impact on L2 results. Any other promotion doesn't fit the supposed injustice y'all seem to see.

[Kmd4390]

Eh. Depends. I'm not really sure how mith was viewing it, but I kind of assumed he's still considered 8th place, but not given a L1 spot for 2016 rather than a true DQ and 12th place. I should probably stay out of any debates on that though because it affects me directly which creates a bias.

[PokerFace]

I agree with flameaxe. Yes, I wanted Panzer to loose, but since he didn't, I no longer felt he should be relegated.

That being said the other 4 players in league 1 that got relegated do they deserve to be bumped up when they lost? I think that may be why Mith is moving DDDP up instead

And that makes me sad. I wanted AFC North Div in League 2

[Zachrulez]

Now I just need to figure out how to not survive because of outside factors next year.

[Nero Cain]

TBF, if we went by EVE in L1 Pamzer and Zor we get knocked down and not KMD and I.

[zoraster]

good thing we weren't.

[Flameaxe]

Meh, can't have it both ways IMO. If they deserve to be relegated when losing to someone like panzer then it legitimizes his wins too. If his inactivity was detrimental to the league, fine, its the ruling. League 2 wasn't impacted by that, and 9th place would be. Resolution doesn't match the "crime" if you will.

[PokerFace]

I see what you mean. I think I'd prefer whoever was 9th in L1 stayed up then
