2012 Eliminator Thread

[Tippaz]

up against Kilders12 (ranked 2k)

both facing 7 donuts
he'll probably do Sandilands -> Cox
i'll probably make 2 trades of my own
gonna be close

 

[PowerForGood]

3/254 vs 3/268
I have 2 less donuts this week so am slightly ahead -predictor has me about 170 in front

 

[beez]

I've never understood why people post the x v y before lockout. When the opponent has the ability to do 2 (3) trades, it can make a huge difference.

 

[PowerForGood]

^^^^^
Because you need to look what your opponent currently has, and how that governs your trade strategy.

I guess we don't need to post that thinking, you're right. But it doesn't hurt.

 

[Hurley300]

Think we have similar numbers out this week, although he ranks about 1500 spots higher than me overall.

Will come down to trades (I won't be making any) so I will probably bow out this week.

is your team name Bound for Glory?

 

[PowerForGood]

571/9 vs 421/9 so far, should be ok but you never know.

Hagrave

Gunna be close

Whitecross and Waters out has really hit me hard this week. Would be comfortably ahead otherwise.

 

[Cat for Life]

Hall isn't playing mate.

 

[BACCS]

I will lose at this stage if projections go according to plan, but it'll be close so I'm still a massive chance. Treloar's 21 cost me any real advantage of having one less zero, and his players have all scored well so far (Thommo, Scotland, Adams, Bugg, Cameron), whereas my other uniques (besides Treloar) at this stage in JMac and Porplyzia have only scored modestly.

He also has Gibson, which might cancel out Treloar's poor score going by his start...

 

[PowerForGood]

Made it to last 2096. (well 99% sure)
Me: Birchall, Roughead, Dickson, Lake, Ebert plus 56
Them: Boyd, Zorko

Edit: Zorko 140 kept it interesting, but surely over now.
Now Me (Dickson, Lake, Ebert plus 124) vs Boyd

 

[beez]

Will take down another opponent despite my lack of scoring in the past couple of weeks. It's always nice to beat someone who is ranked higher than you.

 

[Spider Klein]

Pretty sure I am in trouble

Rockliff, Lake and 48

v

Boyd, Dickson and Jarred Redden

 

[Hawkage]

I need lake to outscore Hargrave, Boyd and Dickson combined...

 

[Brown Bottle]

Furthest I've ever been, but I'm done. Hargrave out seals it, but I was in big trouble anyway thanks to Treloar, Smith, Giles, Hall, Morris, Bootsma, Milera, etc. When you lose all your cover in a bye week (or the ones that play are rubbish) there's not much you can do...

 

[elhadjihenry]

Hargrave is out? well thats me f***ed

Had Boyd, Ebert & Hargrave vs Lake, Pfieffer +132

Had a chance before but with Hargrave out will take a miracle now

 

[Indie_]

Hargrave out has made me sweat a little.

It's now Dickson + 90 vs. Mccarthy.

 

[Jimi]

I'm through. Unless Boyd scores like 250 in the second half.

 

[Indie_]

Through by around 90.

Dickson got the job done.
