Legend News 6/25/2015


  • The Streak - we are a few days from wrapping up the streak. A few legends have asked me about scoring. Top Streaker (best win pct) gets full 2000 points. Remaining streakers get pct of points based on the following formula 2000 - ((Top Win Pct - Your Win Pct) * 2000). Most streaks get 200 point kicker with other legends getting pct of 200 points based on their top streak count. Finally you get a kicker for wins...Most wins 300 pts, Second most 200 pts, Third most 100 pts.
  • Wimbledon Tennis Slam - The draw is at 4:00AM Friday morning. I will try to have the picks up and ready before I head into work Friday.
  • Tour de France - that is right legends. We are picking the Tour de France. You will assign 4 riders to the various jersey colors of the Tour de France. the top 20 riders of each stage will receive points. If your pick wins the overall jersey color then you will get a bonus kicker at the end of the race. Rider list should be set first of next week and Emails will be sent when the picks are open.
  • Golf pickem scoring update - We had some legends pick one player instead of foursome. I treated that as an across the board pick much like the Triple crown stuff. Going forward if you do not pick 4 golfers then you get the worse score of the round. So if you pick 1 golfer you get the worse score * 3 and so on. If you have trouble picking holler and let me know what the issue is.
  • July Streak Month - July will be another streak month since it is a little quiet. I was kicking around the idea of a reverse streak. So you have to pick as many losers as possible. No Forfeits. Anyone interested in that or should we just stick with normal streak. If I do not hear back we will go normal streak
  • College Football update: So this is still a ways off but I am creating the College football Pickem site. Each week legends will pick all the games involving a top 25 team. The picks will be against the spread. The spread will be locked in 1 hour before kickoff. So if you make your picks on Monday the spread can change often throughout the week. The spread will be locked in 1 hour before kickoff and that will be what you are picking against.
  • Point leveling and New Legends - Most Legends agreed that leveling the points was a good idea. We need 3 new legends before Football Season. If you know someone that is legend material please let me know. I would like to get 3 new legends added and then level the points before Football season.

Rundown 4/10/2017

Horstman Master's Dominance, Tower continues his Yahoo league excellence, Baseball week 1 wrapup, that and more in this week's rundown. The Masters One could argue Horstman wasn't even paying attention to Season 3 League Of Legends. He shut all that noise down with a convincing Masters Championship foursome netting him 1000 fake internet points and 5 minutes of League of Legend fame. The winning foursome of Hideki Matsuyama, Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth, and Justin Rose pulled away from the rest of the field. Horstman scored a 100 point bonus for picking Rose who finished 2nd in the tournament. NHL Champion The only legend who showed up for the NHL draft completes his wire to wire run as NHL leader and champion. Tower basks in the glory of another league championship under his belt. Gras' team started hot in day one of the championship matchup netting 19.20 points (not even sure my team ever scored that many points in one day). Gras continued to build a lead headi...

Rundown 6/12/2017 - Jcomp edition

It was a big week across the athletic landscape as several sports and collegiate softball crowned champions. Nadal finished an all-time great run through the French Open, the Penguins won the Stanley Cup, and Lebron ended talk of the Warriors and an undefeated postseason. Meanwhile, Patty took the LOL season lead for all of 36 hours until TJS could finish his 100 hour work week and get back to his computer to “adjust” the scoring. We’re 12 days into the second streak month of the LOL year. I feel a bit like Bob Gibson probably felt in 69 after the whiners got their way and the rules were changed. Luckily enough we’re entering prime Cricket season which, outside of Russian Basketball, is my sweetspot. You guys better get ready for a load of Chris Gayle Hot Takes. Triple Frown We’ve seen six different horses win the six triple crown races since American Pharoah in 2015. While being a borderline sports degenerate is a necessity in the League of Legends, do any of us really care abou...
