It wouldn't let me look these up (league history) until Mach re-activated the league. But as a reminder, Huk'd and I finished 2nd and 3rd in league scoring, but due to random schedule slotting we finished the regular season 8th and 9th positions. My team scored the most points Rounds 1 and Rounds 2 of the playoffs, which means I would have been in the title game yet again in a league format where out scores each week are ranked against all 11 other teams versus random pairing. Random draw is the only thing my spreadsheets seem to lose to!

Its possible for a team to score the 2nd most points each week, for every week of the season, and face the highest-weekly scoring team every week and finish the year 0-14. Same as the person who scores 11th most points every week can randomly face the 12th -scoring team every week and finish 14-0. The first team would have beat the second team 14 out of 14 weeks, but has 14 fewer wins. Its a broken system!

Just because you managed a lot of points and still lost doesn’t mean it is a rigged system. You were just not good enough week to week. Sorry.
August 16, 20223 yr Spoiler Dude, @Agent23, you were barely competitive. Here is a regular season week by week breakdown of how your team did in terms of W\L and where you fell in relation to other teams (I put this together quickly before a meeting so hopefully I counted right) Week Result Weekly point standing Notes 1 W 4 2 L 9 3 W 9 Almost 10th 4 W 4 5 L 8 6 L 10 7 L 8 8 L 9 9 W 6 10 W 9 11 W 1 12 L 7 13 W 6 You only cracked the top half of points scored 5 weeks out of 13. TWO of your wins came in weeks where you were the 9th best score out of 12 teams (and one of those "wins" you were a point shy of being 10th (luckily you went against the worst scoring team that week)). There wasn't a single week where one of your many, many L's occurred where you finished in the top half of points scored, so whining about "oh, my schedule" doesn't hold water. In short, you are lucky we let you play with us. But if this turns into a cash league, I do welcome your dead money. Edit: I was looking at 2020. I look forward to looking more closely at your 2021 failure.
August 16, 20223 yr Yeesh, @Agent23, this isn't much better. Week Result Weekly point standing 1 L 9 2 W 3 3 L 8 4 L 10 5 W 3 6 L 11 7 L 10 8 W 1 9 W 6 10 L DEAD LAST!!!!!! 11 W 5 12 W 1 13 L 6 14 W 2 You did manage to get an L while being in the top half of points scored once. At 6th. So once again, when you team didn't perform, you didn't get the payoff. And while you had more top 3 appearances (4 this time vs 1 last year), you ALSO had more bottom 3 appearances (4 this time vs 1 last year). So while yeah, you had a few more high scoring weeks you had way, way more limp dick finishes as well.

Wait - are you telling me that when you finish in the bottom third of points scored in any given week, your chances of losing said week are high?!

I’ll likely have 300 work emails Friday morning but in the off chance it’s a slow day, I’ll look back through this thread. Using the weekly placement ranks, I think I did that leaguewide after the season ended and identified where all 12 of us would have finished in rankings if our W-L was based on 11 weekly matchups versus 1, and I believe my team under that was easily top-6, so it’s a case of subjective data identifying several bad weeks (which all of us would have had) to give the impression I had a bottom half season
