Congrats, ViagraCat! Winner of best pre-season guesser 2008!

[voodoochile]

Congrats ViagraCat for being this season's best pre-season guesser. Contact me via PM or e-mail to discuss your prize.

Well, next year, we'll give partial credit for people who had a team in the playoffs but not in the correct slot - then it's mine, ALL MINE!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!... er... what I mean is the standings would have changed. :wink:

No one picked Tampa or Philly to win the WS - heck only one person picked the Phillies to win the Pennant and no one had Tampa even in the playoffs let alone winning the Pennant. So no more points can be awarded.

On a side note, many people picked the Sox to be the WC this year, but then failed to say how they would finish in the playoffs. I had no choice but to award no points to those people for playoff finish - which is different than how they make the playoffs. You don't guess, you cannot get points.

For an explanation of the scoring, see the second to last post in the preseason prediction thread: http://www.whitesoxinteractive.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=98741

Standings if we give partial credit for picking playoff teams out of slot:

This will be the rule next year, simply because I think it's more fair, not because I would have won.

Thanks Voodoo! :smile: Hopefully I'll win it again next year picking a White Sox WS winner!

I know I'm not one of WSI's loudest or most prolific posters. You gotta watch the quiet ones. :cool:

Actually, no it was pretty simple once I got the spreadsheet set up. Excel did the heavy lifting and I was playing around with the formulas anyway and trying to improve my skill set. It was actually fun.
