2007 ArmchairGM Games Series (17/05/2007)

by user Alex Holowczak

The 2007 ArmchairGM Games Series continues! (I changed the name to encorperate the Mega Bowls)

Results

The Basketball turned out to be almost exclusively not us... We'll have to make sure that next season that doesn't happen... But regardless, the four ArmchairGM entries scored the top 4 positions. The winner was False Prophet. I did nothing on it all year, but still earned 3 points for 4th out of 4.

English Soccer also concluded. Much to your surprise, maybe, I didn't win! Thecrookedcap was the winner, and I came in third place. Again though, there were just 5 entries, and as a result, Pean took two points for last place.

Current Events

Fantasy Baseball is going strong. The lead is changing hands daily, with Tylersalt and I in the top two placings, but the top 4 or 5 are quite close together. There is a field of 14, so there are no chances to sneak in through the back door to claim points.

We're in the swing (I am so, so, sorry...) of Fantasy Golf (you see...) too. The current leader is Joebook, with Kelsdad and Thecrookedcap just behind. 8 players in this one.

Of course, the two "Mega Bowls" played on Yahoo continue all year. I am currently winning both of them, usefully. They are open entry, and anyone can play anyone. Remember though, it's a ladder, so you need to work your way up from the bottom. Both are Yahoo games.

Standings

Bold scores indicate completed events.

Forthcoming Events

I assumed there would be football, so come August, that will happen. Salary Cap happened last year too, so that will also happen this year, I presume.

Keeper Football has been discussed a lot, regarding DNLs rules, so I await news of that.

Proposed Events

There is an Internet game of "Batracer", which is an Auto Racing simulator. You can do F1, IRL and other series, last I checked. If you're interested, comment. You need about ten to initiate the game, so there needs to be interest to get it going.

I might choose to add ArmchairGM challenges to this. They don't appear to be in the User Rankings, so this could be perhaps a suitable home for them? It would need a qualifying mark though, e.g. 5 challenges. Also, it would need to refresh each year. Comment any thoughts.

I will happily add anything else you can think of, please comment if you know of other games that can be played!

I like how I'm not in the college football pick 'em or salary cap football both of which I started. Pro football pick'em is not represented, I started that as well. I'm also not listed under fantasy football.

Yeah, we're doing ones this year count towards that. Football and Salary Cap Football were in 2006. As for the pick'em, then you probably weren't in the top 6. But still, happily prove otherwise. It is 9 for 1st, 6 for 2nd, 4 for 3rd, 3 for 4th, 2 for 5th and 1 for 6th. So if you weren't in the top 6, you wouldn't have scored a point. Irrespective of whether you ran it, sadly.

I thought I was in the top 6 in college football, but Yahoo has taken down the league already. Oh well. I know I was 2nd (behind friskys) in pro football pickem, which isn't on here. I'm not sure why college football is on here when the entire season was in 2006 but pro football which has part of this season in 07 and won't end until '08 isn't.

Don't make any changes on my account though, I'm not really worried about this I was just curious why some decisions were made as they were.
