AE AE17 Launch & Discussion thread

[Woodson]

After a couple year hiatus, I'm back.

Paid you Woodson.

Three Years gone.. WELCOME BACK BRM!! You may not be the only one who returns after a lengthy lay off. I have dialled up some other guys from yesteryear as a courtesy call to see if there is any interest. Please check out the OP as the furniture has shifted since you left us..

HOT STREAK is the NEW COMP (for you) that replaced Last Chance Saloon. The reigning champ, Kadog yet to check in still.

iluvparis is the other defending AE16 parade of Champions yet to re-sign.. he may think he's Le'veon Bell.

Yup, same CBA account ending in 73. 84 max. GW informs me that there could be rookies coming thru.. his league doesn't seem to have the magnified numbers he was much anticipating.

Cheers dude, I think the last year or two has been a case of me focusing too hard on my fantasy leagues and only remembering about AE in like week 1 or two.

From memory I wasn't overly good but made it into HRS one year - Can't be any worse than the Suns right?

As per the OP:

NEXT DUEL

This competition is purely correlated with the Confidence Rating comp. Your total weekly score is in combat with a scheduled direct opponent in a head to head match up each week for the first ELEVEN weeks. TIED scores between opposing opponents will remain as a TIED result during the regular season. However during the ND Play-Offs, the following TIE BREAKER criteria will determine the result:

1. Most correct winning teams selected
2. Highest CR countback
3. Previous week higher CR countback score

DIVISIONAL SET UP FROM: 74
2 conferences @ 36
7 div @ 6 teams/ participants with two divisions consisting of 7 teams/ participants.
Div Rivals to play each other once (5) over 12 weeks.
Plus Seven conference opponents planned. Interconference match up may be included.

AE17 CONFERENCE & DIVISIONS honory listing to be determined by veteran AE member, Arakaan.

Week 13
Each Conf will consist of : SEVEN Div winners = BYE
ONE WILDCARD WILL BE ISSUED for EACH CONFERENCE
Week 13 is a floated week of Wildcard determination if required, otherwise no ND contests.
The sole WILDCARD will be determined by the following criteria:

If two or more wildcard records of the same Win-Loss-Tie (percentage), they will both / all contend
for the last spot in Week 13 providing the following tie-breakers of qualification in case of a TIED CR score in WEEK 13 eventuates:

ND WC Tie Breaker
1. Outright best Win-Loss-Tie (percentage) record <Overall> PRIMARY
2. Best CR score of Week 13 SECONDARY IF REQUIRED
3. Head to head (if applicable)
4. Divisional record Win-Loss-Tie (percentage)
5. Conference record Win-Loss-Tie (percentage)
6. Common opponents
7. CR overall total from Week 12 (countback)

Week 14

Higher Ranked vs Lower Ranked within their own Conference
ie: 1st vs 8th WC / 2nd vs 7th / 3th vs 6th / 4th vs 5th ect ect
First Round Qualification / Knockout Round = 8 Competitors to progress

Week 15
Divisional Round : 4 Play-Off Competitors x 2 conferences = 8 Competitors
Higher seed vs Lower seed within their own Conference

Four To progress for Guaranteed Prize Monies

Week 16 CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP

DZE WILL COMMENCE WEEK 4
BOTTOM SIX SCORES CULLED

 

[Osmodiar]

I got league pass and a bit of time this year so I will probably suck again but see how we go!

 

[Woodson]

Quick update: All the emails for passwords from the 14 rookies - 7 returnees have been fwded on to JeffDunne.
Arakaan has presented to me his 2017 NEXT DUEL honourees long list and it's been rubber stamped by the commish.
PeterBuch74 will have the duty to prune the list back to 12 with Two Conference heads ready to badge the groupings that I'm currently sorting.
I will present the groupings one by one to PeterBuch74 tomorrow evening where he will determine by his moxy preferences of the players
he has earmarked with a ranking #1 to #12.

There will be a GROUP of DEATH as there usually is.. The defending champ, SVEN, will be challenged for his title in what can be said as a brutal schedule considering Sven has equal most Division Titles. The SKOL ARMY Will be READY.. I have no doubt.

PeterBuch74 isn't escaping the wrath, despite his failed ND campaign .. his snowball impact in the last couple of weeks to snatch the HOLY GRAIL of the CR from the jaws of Striker475 can't be undermined. So expect some HEAVY HITTERS of the AE to line up and attempt to take him down a peg or two. PB74 will also have his fan base backing him all the way.

 

[JeffDunne]

Should have everything loaded later today.

I'll post a notice in this thread when the emails have gone out.

 

[JeffDunne]

Welcome emails have been sent.

If you didn't get one or having problems signing in then let me know.


There's still some parts of the site we need to turn on, like scoreboards, ND, etc, but these will be up soon.

What is 3XKO?

I can assume what it stands for but how does it work?
