AE AE17 Launch & Discussion thread

[JeffDunne]

Does the system recognise when you've selected a team more than 3 teams or do we need to keep track of that ourselves?

After week 1 there will be a panel alongside the tipping page that shows a count team by team.

So you won't need to keep track, the system will.

Good luck everyone for the oncoming AE season!

 

[Woodson]

AE17 consensus have Pats 72% at double digit CR. 23% have the defending champs max CR.
2015 3XKO Bradbury marvel, Starlin Castro has overlooked this contest meaning he'll need some Bradbury luck with KC 1CR.

lol at people who picked KC

Awesome, that's going to be very helpful. Thanks mate!

Pats may still get back and win this, but Week 1 ALWAYS has a few surprises up it's sleeve...
The thing with AE is jagging the occasional upset and having a point of difference to the rest of the pack.

 

[aussiedude]

We have our first 3XKO wrecking ball of the season.

I think it was like 39 who picked the Pats.

 

[Gridiron Warrior]

lol indeed ..... to the people who selected Pats for 15!

 

[LeverPuller]

Yup, not to mention those that put a strike on them!

 

[Oscarman]

Guilty of both.

 

[Demonic Ascent]

Yeah that was me. Loaded up on them in a couple of multis too

 

[Osmodiar]

I picked KC. Thought Pats would still win, but I thought it would be close. Didn't think they were worthy of such a high CR this week.

GG is winning the comp!!!!

16CR gone. Strike Gone. Yet quite happy. Weird feeling.

Well that game sucked from 2 teams i hate watching and thank god i had work today!

Typical that i cop a player in ND that kept the Patriots low as 9pt home favourites while i blew 14 CR and a 3XKO pick.

Got in last night from Europe – thought I'd be jetlagged and wouldn't be able to sleep so I'd do AE in the morning. End up sleeping till 12 and save myself a 3XKO strike!

i had max CR and 3XKO on the Pats. Didn't give a stuff when watching the game, was very happy to see them get rolled.

**** the Pats!

 

[statsman74]

Well that was suboptimal.

14 points gone
Strike obtained
Streak opportunity missed.

[simonoz]

Great to see the Pats go down but boy is this a bad start to AE17. 15cr & a strike!

 

[LeverPuller]

To think I put the strike on New England for about 30secs only an hour before kickoff, then switched away...

If you ever start boarding a plane and get the feeling to not....listen to yourself again
