#SFB12 Round 2 Update!
Hey all!
Round 2 is done and we are on to Round 2 of the #SFB12 playoffs. Only 1200 teams of the 3000 team tournament are still playing!
This page — #SFB12 Playoffs Round 3 — has the teams still playing in the #SFB12 playoffs. Congrats if you are on that page! If you are not on it, you are out (Sorry and thanks for playing!).
If you have been eliminated please do not make any add/drops or waiver bids. Please post this reminder in your #SFB12 chats.
The data so far has been pretty promising. It’s been very very difficult for top 20% teams to get eliminated outside of an absolutely terrible week. The average has created just enough swing that even if you enter a week dead last, you can survive with a good week. For example in Round 3 next week, the bottom team is only 16.18 off the cutline. Likewise I sit at 109 overall. I’m 891 teams above the Round 3 cutline entering the week, but only 17.77 points above it. I’ll spare going into the deeper details, but having the first 3 rounds set like this is going according to plan to a T. Based on ranks entering each week, I’m not sure I could have hoped for better. The worry was always the later weeks with deeper cuts, however, and if the average would be too powerful for the two big cuts and the final week. Some interesting and awesome discussion on twitter on ways to possible tweak the playoffs in future years and I’ll crunch the numbers in the offseason.
