I sorted the ribbon just in time. I think Stoner's Sloths having not been busted is making the place a bit smokier. The Commish can definitely smell it in the air. By Playoffs we may not even be able to see the ribbon anymore.

You just tell me which one you want in the OP and it will be done.

So now that Week 13 has finished, let's check out the adjusted scores!

For Week 12!!

Anyways. Let's do this.

*Note: Just realized I'm the one up against Stoner's Sloths. Watch this be the week that THE COMMISH busts them. There will be no end to the conspiracy theories. Some sort of Point Inflation Scheme. Inflategate, if you will. (Oh god nobody's going to get this anyway let's move on.)

No changes after 1/3Back scoring applied.

:siren:THE HUNTRON IS UNSTOPPABLE:siren:
Once again, thanks to the combined powers of those four teenagers with attitude Hunters, The HUNTRON has delivered Wairarapa Bush their 4th win in a row.

FEUD RESULTS:
CHESTNUTS vs MARS ATTACKS: Both teams scored below 300; no change.
NONCHALANTS vs BOB ROSS: Both teams scored below 300; no change.

TESTING RESULTS:
3; 4: ALL COOL
THE COMMISH WANTS NEW DICE.

Reminder, FEUDING FOR THIS WEEK (week 14):
CHESTNUTS vs TEAMATES
SQUIRRELS vs NONCHALANTS

RULES ADDENDUM

NOTICE TO ALL CONSOLATED TEAMS


THE COMMISH has abandoned you. You are lost. You are forgotten.

You are free.

Any coaches of CONSOLATED teams may propose rule changes to that week's matches. These rule changes will only apply to matches between CONSOLATED teams.

You will not return to the realm of the WINNERS. But you may choose your path through the afterlife.

Please submit your proposed changes in the thread. No promises are made, but all will be considered.

((ok so I wanna keep things interesting for the ousted teams, while also tinkering with an idea I have for next year's league. Go hog wild, I can't promise I have the time or ability to implement everything but I'll do what I can. Rule changes absolutely can favor one team over another, but anything that is utterly game-shattering [ie: only my team can score] will be ignored and may even face backlash.

Let's hear some ideas!))

Stoner Sloth

can i suggest a change to the Huntron rules cause I'm not sure a score of over 500 points is even possible with other teams at this stage?

I was thinking keep the rule BUT all Hunters must be in play and score at least 1 point in order for Huntron to take effect since you can't form Huntron without all the necessary Hunters working together

also might be worth taking a look at running backs who seem to have become the new qbs, a five or ten point adjustment per rb after 1 or 2 might make things a little more competitive for those players who aren't mostly rbs?

just a couple of thoughts to keep things changing up, no worries if they're not good ideas and thanks as always for running this friend!

Lock

hardcore sound gets you hypah

I'll have a think on it. I don't wanna change too much up heading into the playoffs, and again, this has never really been about fairness. Though I don't want things to be a foregone conclusion either.

I've got an idea, but at this point I'll probably wait and see how the first round of playoffs unfold.

e: But thank you for saying something. I was so wrapped up watching this team go from zero to hero that I didn't realize just how much of a behemoth they are. But part of it is due to their QB all of a sudden being useful...and said QB is a perennial benchwarmer who played for my alma mater, so I'd be lying if I said I weren't biased.

also frigging lol I can't believe not having rolled a double yet, wonder what the odds of that are!

Lock

hardcore sound gets you hypah

I maaaaaaaaay implement a slight change to the rule. I'm gonna sleep on it, but I've got an idea that would at least make this week's matchup a cointoss if the projections are anywhere close to accurate. I wanna check to make sure it won't unduly change future matchups though.

If this week weren't the first week of playoffs, I was going to do a whole 'That's it, EVERYBODY'S GETTIN TESTED' bit and have one week where the testing was applied to all matchups. Buuuut since the playoffs snuck up on me I don't feel right pulling a huge gimmick like that now. Still, yah, shame we didn't get to see that triggered.

Though watch it get triggered when you're in the championship match, at this rate....

This is pretty true. A good 120 from a qb could b a 40 when a RB might hit 60. Average I guess for qb is like 30sum after adjust so stacking a few good RBS does outweigh. Then again everyone has off days, mostly everytime I expect anything it's the other way, so it's still a crapshoot.

Also, I think since the season is over and I've yet to bother with anything but participation ribbons, that I'll just keep rolling with that. I'll do one each per team(ambitious) if I can and one with all the teams listed so that we all have a small file to save forever or delete in favour of a cat gif.

Stoner Sloth

slight update to the idea about Huntron - on closer inspection at least one of the hunter's isn't in regular play so my earlier suggestion would be too much of a nerf - I do have a better suggestion though!

roll 1d6 after each match, if the result is higher than the number of hunter's that took the field and scored at least 1 point then Huntron fails to activate, if it's equal or lower than Huntron takes place as normal

means that the strength of it is slightly reduced but still a good chance for it to take place

e: thought about this and this and d6 probably better, also an example - if three hunter's are in play then 3 or lower on dice roll means it activates

Big same, bit that has always been the case. My spot next year should probably go to someone who engages with football on some level.

Jaguars!


The Huntron was formed after I managed to collect every guy named Hunter in the NFL and made this post:

Jaguars! posted:

Now that I have collected all the Hunters I am going to form a Hunter Voltron. Hunter Henry will be the chaingun firing left arm, Hunter Renfrow will be a gigantic flyswatter that is used to propel the ball, Hunter Bryant will be a mighty robotic leg and Hunter long will be a wooden peg-leg that much like his on-field performance, is present but doesn't actively do anything.

Then it got a special rule that doubled the score but it didn't matter for a long time because my team is about as effective as roadkill, but now apparently they kick rear end? I think it's because my quarterback concussed the 1st string QB is starting regularly now.

I am completely fine with nerfing the rule, you could make it affect only the Hunters instead of the whole team or something.

As for the Feud rules, I have absolutely no idea, perhaps drafting a hatfield or a McCoy would help.

Nah friend, this was never meant to be something where ‘knowing what’s going on’ should give you any sort of advantage. It’s all about watching the numbers, weird poo poo happening, and maybe your team wins something when it’s all done?

That said, if this ain’t your bag, fair nuff! But I absolutely don’t want people to think any sort of football knowledge is required to be ‘competitive.’

RADIATION ALERT

THE HUNTRON HAS SPRUNG A LEAK!

WAIRARAPA BUSH, after an 0-8 start to the season, turned to the power of the HUNTRON to salvage their season. Their tinkering week in and week out eventually led to wins, which soon led to domination. They ripped off 6 wins in a row and have found themselves in THE PLAYOFFS.

However, they have apparently flown too close to the sun. SCIENTISTS in the employ of THE COMMISH have discovered RADIOACTIVE EMISSIONS leaking from the HUNTRON.

The effects of the RADIATION seem to negate the 1/3Back penalty for the first eligible QB. Simply put, any team going up against WAIRARAPA BUSH may get full points from the 2 top-scoring QBs on their team. (1/3Back penalties start with the 3rd-highest-scoring QB, if applicable).

I don't watch pro or really anything besides the college games which can get very good. I've skated so far this year without seeing a single game in NFL, I just wish I still could go to my mum's and watch that football where they hit the ball with their foot.

OK, late reply again, but this time it's not my fault. COVID pushed games back to Wednesday, so PLAYOFFS week one literally just finished.

Let's see where things stand!

THE HUNTRON UPSETS!
Due to a VERY unfortunate late scratch of one of confused golfer's QBs, as well as a general lack of doings-of-things by the rest of the team, THE HUNTRON rumbles on, radiation and all.

Also, Wairarappa becomes the second team to score EXACTLY 420 points (after adjustments). Nice.

FEUD results:
TeaMates BUSTED! Score zeroed out.
Trois-Pistoles ADVANCES!

THE COMMISH IS PERTURBED.

NEWLY CONSOLATED TEAMS:
Chestnuts
Nonchalants
