Media Qox Sports Media Presents: The Virgin Cup

[Frankston Rover]

You seem to be taking it very personally. You realise it's one persons opinion and really means nothing right?

The only reason I get a little upset is that Danoz for the most part has put in a lot of time and effort only to completely * it all up at the end.

Great idea ruined.

This is an outrage.

1st Place

Drumroll for the winner.......

And in a move which will not be popular with the "AVERAGE" punter, winning in an absolute landslide, and the inaugural winner of the Virgin Cup, is This Is Anfield of the Fighting Furies. Contrary to popular opinion, measurement of this on-field award has never wavered from initial decisions, with the winner having averaged the most amount of exie points per game over the season.

Coming into the finals, the leader of the award had been NathanMJ_WB54. His average of 91+ across the season was an amazing result for the rookie. TIA had started with a bang, but had a few poor scores scattered throughout, and at the end of the regular season was averaging 89.

With a exie score of 110 in the quarter final, TIA jumped temporarily over the top of Nathan, but a semi final accumulation of only 34 brought TIA back below Nathan. 2 huge final games of 144 and 139 sealed the win for TIA, and in my humble opinion, the old man is a welcome and deserved winner of the cup.

2nd Place

In second place is a Royal rookie who took the league by surprise, then storm in season 18. In a season worth forgetting for Gold City, this youngun was a bright shining star in the darkness.

This player was in the running for the overall prize even without playing in the finals, due to some miraculous numbers which spanned the entire season.

Playing his home games at a dry Golden Throne, NathanMJ_WB54 capitalised on the good weather, becoming an accumulation machine matched by only a few in season 18.

You can be sure that under the tutelage of the Royal's leadership, Nathan will emerge next season as one of the league's best posters.

1558 (91.6) Exie rank 7

I'd like to make a few acknowledgements - my curiosity for getting the better of me after reading 'Gold City Royals' in Igloo's signature, Wise Guy Sam for blackmailing me into signing a contract, the leaders down at the Royals (WGS, Marlowe, Son of God, okeydoke7 etc) for assisting me in refining my posting style throughout the year, and El_Scorcho, for the mesmerizing avatar that I'm certain carried me further than any of my efforts on the qooty field.

Congratulations, This Is Anfield.

For the uninitiated and down right stupid, exie points are awarded as follows and a link to the explanatory thread is found here.

Q. What the hell are "Exie points".
A. Exie points are player scores calculated through a system devised by Titans receiver X_Box_X. A score is calculated via the following atttributes :
Kicks – 3 points
Handballs – 2 points
Marks – 5 points
Tackles – 5 points
Goals – 8 points
Behinds – 1 point
Hitouts – 1 point
Frees For – 2 points
Frees Against - -2 points
The Sweet FA Stats Dept maintains Exie stats for each player along with all the usual stats (kicks, marks etc), and standings can be posted upon request.

As you can see, goals, marks and tackles are awarded more points in the EXIE format, and so are worth more to this award. So 17 goals, while may be less than what FR considers good enough, is still worth a lot more than hitouts, and Matera's 17 goals are worth nearly as much as Joe's 200+ hitouts.

Thanks for putting up some stats though Frankston Rover, reminded me of what I forgot to put in orginally.

As for next season, there's likely to be a lot less rookies, and if I can be arsed being hung out to dry every week by campaigners like FR, I'll be looking to include players who've played less than 10 games in total in the pool of eligible participants.

For now all else i'll say is #*youFR you lousy bitching campaigner.

So all you did was take akkaps Exie Points and then give the trophy to the bloke with the most amount of points?

How scientific.

I thought this was your award and placing would be allocated based on how each rookie performed in their role.

Obviously not.

What position did you play?

Did someone else do better than you in that position?

Not saying your stats aren't impressive - not even saying you don't deserve to win it based on stats - but have a look at who actually performed their role the best. BigJoeD for example finished 6th yet averaged 84.47 points and was second only to Hawk Patrol in Exie Points for ruckmen.

And including the finals was just silly.

Anyway, well done.

So all you did was take akkaps Exie Points and then give the trophy to the bloke with the most amount of points?

How scientific.

I thought this was your award and placing would be allocated based on how each rookie performed in their role.

Obviously not.

Exie points have nothing to do with akkaps, apart from him using them for his stuff as well. Exie points are a constant throughout ~15 years of Mobbenfuhrer's program, which is a basis on which rankings are given, and are also used when the program decides mobbs medal votes at the end of each game. If you want to discount their use, then you need to forfeit the Mobbs medal.

It makes sense to me, and I'm sorry if you don't like the way I use stats, take less notice of my posting in the future.

While I am extremely grateful to Danoz for this prestigious award, I feel that I have to relinquish it and hand it over to Frankston Rover to bestow as he sees fit, apparently being number one for total disposals is not a worthy stat, being number three is far more worthy.

The cup is yours, fair and square. Exie points are right there for everyone to see, and I have no issues with you getting this award. Relinquishing (albeit I admit tongue in cheek) to a flog like FR is your choice, but one I'd urge you not to do, since he's one of the floggiest flogs that flog.

It was all ranked on averages flog. There was as much chance of TIA getting another couple of 50's rather than his 140's, and so could've easily finished even lower than 2nd. He played well and deserved the win.

Mobbs Medal votes are based on Exie Points. Mobbs Medal votes are based on something similar to AFL Player Rankings.

Haha, not relinquishing anything, I'm very pleased to A) win this award B) piss Frankie off as well.

Oh Danoz, you're so cute when you melt. I hope I'm not the source of your Acid Knee Reflex.

Anyway, I get the Exie Average thing, I just wish this was explained earlier in the season and saved everyone some time.

Very poor execution and a real letdown in terms of 'doing something different'.

If I'd known you were just going to knock off akkaps stats, I'd have stayed well away.

Well, considering that I was ranked no1, I'd take a stab at no.

 

[Frankston Rover]

I have created a complex spreadsheet of formulae designed to pinpoint the best performing rookie on a rolling basis each round.

This award recognises greatness on field only, though I will comment on the posting of the player during their Cherry Popping match thread.

What a croc of s**t the OP was.

BOOOO-urns BOOOO-urns

TBH, I didn't even realise it wasn't clear to start with, and only now since you're cracking the sads did I realise I didn't include it in the OP. I also thought it was obvious throughout the season that this was what I was using (but it's now also pretty clear that I'm probably one of the only people who take much notice of the stats)/

No s**t, that's why I followed with the statement "Not saying your stats aren't impressive - not even saying you don't deserve to win it based on stats" but to just base it on the average Exie Points is lazy and lacks any "formulae" - it's just copying someone else's work.

 

[timtamWB]

Far too low for my liking. Must step it up. Almost got out placed by a bloody spanner.

How does it feel to be outplaced by a biscuit that played less than half the games you did?

Probably the only individual award I'll ever win in the SFA, thanks for taking the gloss of it.
