For those who need a refresher on the postseason rules:

There are three weeks of postseason play. Since the Super Bowl obviously only has two teams in it, building a list to try to reach 1000 yards would make them nearly identical between players, so the conference championships are the final week to keep it more interesting.

Because there are no Monday Night games in postseason play, your Tucker number must come from the last game chronologically in each week. So for the Wild Card round, it would be the Lions-Cowboys game.

The best players from the regular season are granted tokens for use in postseason play, as indicated by the lines on the standings. If you are above a given line, you get that many tokens to use at any point in the postseason. These tokens work the same way as they do in the regular season, although since there are no points involved the Ryan Token is obviously useless. If you have less than 3 you can save them for later rounds if you so choose. You can only use each individual token (Willis, Revis, Suh, Polamalu) once.

At the end of each week, the top third of the field moves on to the next round, and everyone else is eliminated. 27 becomes 9, 9 becomes 3, and the best score of the final three competitors is crowned the 2014 champion of 1000 Yards or Bust! Good luck!

The guy running the competition having the highest score reminds me of my grandfather keeping score when we played cards at family gatherings.

Thanks for running this, Grozz. I look forward to doing it again next year.

I came in second the year before I started running the game!

Just warning everyone in advance: I am currently sick with some serious wrath of god type poo poo so results might not get crunched right away. I'll try to get them done on Tuesday to give everyone time to put lists together for the next round, but no promises.

The Puppy Bowl posted:

I'm eliminated anyway so it doesn't matter but I definitely got more than 504 :colbert:

Check your list again and see if you did anything wrong.

You used more than one player from the Tucker game

Aaaand I'm out. :sigh: Really thought Romo would throw for more than that against Green Bay's defense. Congrats to the final three. Point of order: since there are only two games left there's no limit on taking more than one player from each matchup, but if you have a token to use you must designate a specific player from Colts-Patriots as the Tucker Number. Good luck!

Now that the actual Super Bowl is upon us, let's go over the final results!

In third place, with 560 yards: Arnold Layne!

In second place, with 603 yards: Okibi!

Which means that our 2014 One Thousand Yards or Bust champion is: Grittybeard, with 819 yards!

Congrats to Grittybeard, I hope everyone enjoyed playing this year.
