GTS 2018-19 season summary CORRECTED. Ramjet wins!

[jhawk73]

OK so here are stats in several categories: overall standings, post season only standings, "What if I hadn't missed submitting a guess/guesses", and those who only picked KU to win.

If you have questions or want any other information, either reply to this or PM me and I'll see what I can do. If there aren't any this is my last GTS posting until football starts again. Too bad the season ended with such a humiliating loss but it turned out to not be as bad a pasting as it looked like it might be earlier in the game. Next year! RCJHKU

There were TWO perfect guesses during the season. ArgentineHawk had one for the 1st Baylor game, and Kufan1 had one for the 2nd Baylor game.

PLEASE NOTE THE CORRECTION BELOW. KUFAN1 correctly pointed out that he always picked KU to win. I had overlooked the zero in his column as it was so much farther up the list than any of the others. He is the winner in this category. The rankings below have been corrected to reflect that.

Overall standings - this is the ranking you've been seeing after every game. Ramjet wins. Vegas and KenPom are in the list only as comparators

Homers - these people only picked KU to win. Kufan1 wins this category
Legend - same as above except the last number is how many times they picked against KU. Anyone who isn't on this list picked against KU at least once. Some a number of times. That does include me BTW - I did it twice

[PhDhawk]

Congrats on the win mmoodyc

[PhDhawk]

Title of thread is wrong btw

[Kufan1]

I thought that I picked KU to win every game.

[jhawk73]

Sorry PhD it's guess the score, regardless of who the predicted winner is. It isn't just about predicting KU to win. mmoodyc is 9th. It shouldn't take a PhD to figure that out

[TDub]

Thanks 73 as always

[ramjet]

Thanks for doing this, '73 - pdub better pay you the vig.
Well played Illy, BigT, and Kf1
Not bad for a couple of old jocks, huh dolomite.... teach these punks something.
I will await the 50' plasma

Yeah, phd - I played to win, bitch. Your score barely qualifies you for a participation ribbon. Go play with your mircoballs...

[jhawk73]

There actually was a prize for this once. On the old kusports.net board (someone else was running GTS then btw) I won it 2 years in a row. The 1st time Vega gave me a $50 Amazon gift certificate as the prize. The 2nd year it was understood that was the prize again but that was when the board started getting into financial trouble and Vega began asking for contributions, so I never got the prize. No prize has been promised ever since then, and the rules now specifically state there is no prize. At least none other than the recognition of getting your name in a message title and the accolades of most of the board members (PhD notwithstanding lol!)

[jhawk73]

I thought that I picked KU to win every game.

I went back and checked everything. You're right. I overlooked the zero next to your name since it was a number of spots higher in the list than anyone else's. I've corrected the standings in that category. You are the winner.

[jhawk73]

Oh and one last item. There were TWO perfect guesses during the season. ArgentineHawk had one for the 1st Baylor game, and Kufan1 had one for the 2nd Baylor game.

[PhDhawk]

Wrong. If you pick against ku you're a looser.

[Kufan1]

Thanks 73 ..Hoping for a better season for KU next year !

This was a joke, it was discussed in some detail after the loss to the kittens. "The Legend Of The 50' Plasma". The legend, thx to '99 and BofH, should live on...

Not only are you wrong about what this contest is about, you can't even spell correctly. I think you meant "LOSER". "Looser" is the antonym of "tighter".

[Deleted User 141]

Lol. PhD was successful on that trolling run.

[bigB]

Thanks much 73

Nope wrong again

[pdub]

I think everyone should losen up.

[pdub]

No cash money this season unfortunately.
We have negative dollars in reserve.
I/we do plan on trying to do a drive kinda thing like Vega did so that we can at least pay for the hosting costs ( pdub isn't made of money ).

I have a number of things happening in the next couple months but I plan on working on the site experience more in the offseason. Maybe we ( admins ) can get some things rolling so gutter can come back in the fall with something to look forward to.
