HULA ML Cleanup

[bds]

I really don't want to be the grumpy person who screws up the end of this. I don't want to be the person who prevents the playoffs. If the other captains want to do playoffs, and if someone else from my team is able to stand in until I can give this some time, then I can live with that. I'm just cranky cause too much too do, and too little time- leaving no time for poker, which actually generates more income - the irony

I agree 100% that we need stronger administration in the future. Frankly, I'm concerned about timprov, because it is not like him to "disappear" like this. He voluntarily kept the records, etc. Does anyone know Tim? I'd like to know if he's ok, etc.

I don't think it was unreasonable of you to think this would be finished by now. I think sine we have matches still unplayed (i believe) and 5 teams with the same record (if that's true) then we should just split up the prize pool accordingly. It sucks not to get to do the playoffs but it seems like it will be logistically pretty tough with now 3 admins absentee.

This was the previous standing. goofball and dave 44 winning makes everyone 4-2.

goofball 4-1 (14-14)
ihardlyknowher 4-2 (16-14)
raisins 4-2 (15-15)
bds 4-2 (15-15)
dave44 3-2 (17-11)

Dave44 and ihardlyknowher are a lock for the playoffs. raisins and bds have played all their matches, so no update there.

goofball: can you please tell us your win-loss scores as (x-y) and tell us what matches have been played by your team that brought you from (14-14) to (x-y)?

If we can figure this out, as Microbob said, there is no reason to split the money now. We should start the playoffs and finish it on schedule, with strict rules.

If we can't, well, there is no reason to hold this up any longer, and we should then split the money now.

I wasn't looking to portray you as grumpy. My preference is to end this without playoffs. I don't believe that you not being able to participate is sufficient reason not to have the playoffs but I think it is worth pointing out.

I'm not sure what you're concern over Timprov is. I don't think he's dead or grievously injured considering he last posted on 10/20/05 7:16 pm.

That being said it looks like people want to have playoffs. If qualification comes down to me and bds with equivalent team and match records then my team beat hers in the last week of the season and I think that is the tiebreaker.

raisins

i done't really care, but a decision should be made one way or the other. i would say in future HULA's a winner should be decided for every match at the end of the week regardless (or a double forfeit declared) to prevent this BS. it is a little goofy that some 4-2 teams are now there because of forfeits, and thus rewarded for not being responsible and forcing the play of matches.

funny, in the regular HULA evryone seemed to hate Evan for being a nazi, but in HULA ML we suffered from having overly soft, compensating leadership. personally i don't care if we have playoffs or divide up the prize pool. i've had some good heads up experience and consider the experience a positive. whatver the decision is it should be decided shortly.

timprov, when you decided to take this under your wing it became your thing. make a decision now. some folks may be reluctant, but i think i speak for all when i say we'll all accept it, and it needs to be done now. thanks
