There has been much debate about how EXACTLY the teams will be ranked when the Finals come around, so I'm posting all three possibilities that I think are viable.

#1 - Weighted Scores - YYB=/=3 Side Games

Based on the current rank-up ratings; YYB is the baseline at 1, SS is worth 1/2, and MSN and SOSD are worth 1/12



#2 - Weighted Scores - YYB=3 Side Games

Based on the assumption that a YYB win is equal to winning all 3 side games, with all side games weighted evenly



#3 - YYB = Everything Method

YYB decides all, then side games are used as a tie breaker



Congratulations to Krawk Island, Shenkuu and Kreludor... 3 teams in the top 4 on all 3 lists!

Gah, still trailing behind Kreludor :\ Even worse for the YYB decides everything theory. Come on Islanders, we can do it!

Biggest shake-up is Darigan dropping from a cozy 3rd place to a out of the top-4 5th place after the Lost Desert debacle. Darigan needs to work things out... or at least get some easy matches and quick!

[Elindoril]

Yeah, that's a big loss for Darigan players, but as long as they get matched up with a few of the lesser teams and take back what was lost, then they'll be a little safer. Though they also have to compete with the other big teams taking the easy wins and keeping their place, which will be a challenge if the teams manage to succeed.

Today is tough match #3 in a row for them: Shenkuu. Shenkuu is well rested after a Faerie Land match-up. Today's the day to make something happen. It's the match I'm going to be looking at first come Midnight.

Oh man bro! We're falling behind! Hey Eli you are KI too right?

Gosh you don't know how happy that makes me. Brings tears to my eyes really. *sniffles*

[jcrboy]

I need you guys to make up for me a little bit today. I can't do my normal 40-100-100 in SS-MSN-SOSD. Internet's on the fritz and I'm out in the yard leeching neighbor's.

I'm shooting for at least 20-50-50 and may be able to pull the full bit later if it comes back on, but I'm not sure if I'll have time.

Speaking of which, I'm jumping off because the laptop battery's about to die. I just had to get this up because you were all relying on me I love laptop and unsecured wifi hotspots in the neighborhood

These are some tough times for them I guess, although KI needs them to lose, I can't help but feel a little sympathy for them.

I'll try my best to get all the games done, I got plans that interfere with my play time today .

I'm up to about 30-75-75... and I'll get as close as I can to 40-100-100 before 10:30 NST, when I switch over to hardcore YYB'ing

[Elindoril]

I got the 40-100-100 done, I'll probably do some more because I got nothing better to do, but I dunno about YYB, I get tired of that really fast, and my terrible shooting doesn't make it any better. xD

[Noitidart]

Did you see the guide jc threw togather?

[Elindoril]

*peers over* No I have not, off I go.

[jcrboy]

Quit being modest, Noit... the vids are all yours... Now if I manage to catch a 14-point game... I'm going to have to try before the end of competition.

[Elindoril]

Meh, I got a 12 point game, and that was because I got lucky on a few shots, but damn, YYB is redundant after a while, I just. Can't. Keep. Playing.

[jcrboy]

I turned it into an awkward game to maintain a 10+ ppg average

I'd explain how I "play" but it doesn't translate well to the sane world.

Either way my current average is 10.58 ppg with Dasher making 9.43 ppg

SHIT KI LOST!!! ><

Time to do the math

[Elindoril]

I KNOW! To Mystery Island too.

Nice record though, I don't care for mine. xD

Only top-5 team that had a GREAT day was Shenkuu demolishing Darigan... but I'll save the commentary for... the commentary
