[Demonic Ascent]

I don't know how the Cards won, but thanks

 

[Woodson]

and later on in the afternoon.. AEDST..

MEANING in week 14.. we getting some 3XKO Showdown VIII action!!

 

[Woodson]

Four ND Division winners have dropped their contests whilst FIVE have finished on a high including Pedge7 who will fly the flag as the #1 seed from the Marty Schottenheimer Conference. Showbag has officially clinched the Jason Witten Division due to a tie being the best result Starlin Castro can achieve. Three Division winners awaiting a MNF result as there is also still THREE Divisions yet to be determined.

balmainforever will CONFIRM the accuracy of this chart with a 'Like'

Walking it off after being effectively 30 points back, What a comeback

Now just got to hope for some MNF shenanigans ... But I won't be holding my breath.

 

[Woodson]

MNF week 13 scenario: It's substantial support for the defending SB champs as three of the five ND match ups have play-off implications with Osmodiar clinging on by the 'skin of his teeth' as TCol anticipates to clinch Division title #5. WADW is seeking his third Division title.

Unfortunately I had a glitch occur this week. My picks didn't accumulate enough points.

Fortunately, I know this will be corrected by advancing me to next week.

Thank you

HOT STREAK UPDATE

Coming in to this week we had 6 active streaks of 10 or more and 40 active streaks less than 10. After the Cowboys defeat of the red hot Saints 6 active streaks of 10 or more remained and only 20 active streaks less than 10 survived.
Nobody nibbled at the Ravens-Falcons game but the 2 game combo of the Panthers against the Bucs and the Bears against the Giants got people excited - and deflated - as red crossed littered the board. Still we had 6 active streaks of 10 or more as the leaderboard remained unchanged.
The Colts defeat of the Jags saw more streaks fall by the wayside and the pack behind the top 6 active streaks was getting very thin, led by Moo on 9 and Oscarman on 8. Both who hadn't made a selection up to the Colts-Jags game.

The leaders avoided most games until the Rams/Lions tilt. With Demonic Ascent TheGreatBarryB and shiny_on_top backing the Rams. The successful result saw Demonic Ascent move in to the joint lead with pedge7 on 25.
The Packers against the poor Cardinals grabbed the interest of the leaders with pedge7 (on 25), AmericanCrow (on 18), TheGreatBarryB (on 18) mcgarnacle (on 14) and shiny_on_top (also on 14) backing the Packers at home.
As with Mike McCarthy the result of the game saw their tenure also come to an end. Leaving Demonic Ascent with a 16 tip buffer ahead of Moo on 9.

The four games of Chiefs/Raiders, Jets/Titans, Seahawks/49ers and Patriots/Vikings was a lot more generous than the earlier games with a lot of success stories coming from these games before the Chargers tipped cold water on some streaks that were reigniting.

By the end of the week 13 it was all Demonic Ascent, who had taken his score to a competition leading 27. Oscarman hit 5 late games to move to 2nd in the active streak list with 13, while Moo stayed pat with 9 having not added anything to his streak.

How will Demonic Ascent manage his large buffer, will the next four weeks of games be generous enough where we see a bolter charge through or is it done and dusted?

Wait, you don't have to pick every game with Hot Streak? What a ****ing chump I have been for years.

Nah, you can pick and choose as you please, whatever you feel works best.

Congrats to Burningleviathan for his first ND title which was a classic arm-wrestle right up until the end of the regular season against TGBB predominately. Has amassed a respectable 42-38-2 record in 7 campaigns. Just marginally missing out on the Johnny Unitas Div title in '10.

Congrats to Chism for clinching an unprecedented sixth ND Division title to follow his '11-'12-'14-'15-'16 Divisional reign however he has been denied twice ('12 & '14) at the Conference Championship stage. Overall is under .500 in play-offs (4-5). Can he overcome his ND Conference Championship hurdle?

Congrats to Marcuz on his second ND Division title since 2012 when he snared the Cortez Kennedy title from outside the Top 40. Having to overcome a horror start (1-4 and 2-5), the 2012 3XKO Showdown finalist rallied strongly to reel off the last four contests including peterbuch74 as the biggest scalp. The TNF upset of the 10-1 Nawlins Saints vs his beloved Cowboys went a long way (+15 Bufferzone) in clinching a 94-89 victory against Division foe, Rashmanadon, in the end to leapfrog Ravens fan, Bigredmachine, by half a game.

Congrats to current CR#1 Showbag for clinching his third ND Division title after a arduous fightback after starting a disastrous 0-3 whilst Division foes, matt_897 (4-0) and Starlin Castro (7-1) were tearing it up early.
It was to be the five game winning streak that resurrected his seventh campaign and then a big 3-0 finish that needed to outmuscle the 2015 3XKO Champ, Starlin Castro in the decisive JW Powerplay.

An outstanding ND record of 51-30 with 3-4 in play-offs.

Congrats to the original ND Beast-Mode, TCol, who has clinched his fifth ND Division title to follow his '09-'10-'12 and '17 dominant seasons but it was to be his out of the box 2011 season from a Wildcard that become the whirlwind ND title glory triumph.

Needing to overcome his nemesis, Jatz, who looked the goods (6-2) after Week 8 before shitting his bed (0-5 finish), it was to be Osmodiar (7-6) who sneaked by in the latter stages of second half of the season to almost deny TCol but his ol' buddy Fuey who saved the day to block out Osmodiar on the last day to give TCol the green light for his NINTH play-off series!! (TCol is 12-7 in play-offs).

Congrats to wce_all_da_way for clinching his third ND Division title to follow his Joe Greene ('08) and Junior Seau ('16) titles. A barnstorming finish was required after falling into a mid-season hole (1-5) but the crucial Divisional victories were banked along the way. Is 0-3 in play-offs.

I gathered that not getting a 'like of approval' from the Honey Badger of the previous DZE graphic pre-MNF was 'ALARM BELLS' meaning something was amiss... 'AMISS as one survivor was overlooked and GUESS WHAT? I found him. Ironically Osmodiar scored 82... so the following error was drama about NOTHING!! All is restored. Marklar33 and 11SJW have been notified.

So, I'm gonna put my hand up and OWN UP to the 'Graphics Gate' ERROR on the MNF graphic that had 11SJW and Marklar33 listed when neither shouldn't have... They survived the cut with their score of 84 anyways!!

Would of been good to get a text / communication from balmainforever
