Fall 2014 Franchise Tournament Topic

Will there be overall owner standings posted anywhere?

After starting off very well, all my teams were above .500, then I hit a 0-6 & 1-5 in back to back sessions.  So then four of my five teams were back to .500.

Yes, I will update the standings roughly every 18 games.  Here we are after the PM2 games on 10/24

schwarze did indeed draw the most concentrated set of opponents...facing a total of 5 owners out of a possible 15, and facing 3 of us four times each.
Interestingly, those were the only examples of owners drawing each other as opponents 4 times.

On the other end of the spectrum, batandball drew 12 unique opponents among his 15 divisional foes.
Most of us drew 8, 9, or 10 unique opponents.

It's been years since I had the kind of stats class needed to determine if this output is consistent with what a random process would generate...if anyone wants to take that on, it's all yours.

Next fall, if I do this again, I'll have 6 owners each generate random lists 1-16, and we'll use that to create the divisional orders.

Same top 3....
10/30/2014 7:36 PM
How is everyone doing with fatigue?  My pitching staffs are mostly OK, but my position players are starting to tire, especially at 60M and 80M.
10/30/2014 7:51 PM
I'm in similar shape - the position players at 60M and 80M require almost game by game fixes to prevent fatigue.
10/30/2014 9:17 PM
I was going to complain that I'm in the toughest divisions, as four of the five divisions I'm in has the most wins in their respective leagues.  But then I remembered that a few people are essentially in the same divisions as me.  DarthDurron wins the award for being in the toughest divisions.  All FIVE of his divisions are considered the toughest in the league.

Thru Sunday night, here are the win totals of each division, by owner...

11/2/2014 7:52 PM
So, in aggregate, the average team in all of DarthDurron's division is on a pace to win 91 games.
11/2/2014 7:53 PM
For those interested, starting at game 85, there will be a 36-game stretch of interleague play.  For reasons that are not clear, WIS's scheduling algorithm makes this portion of the schedule unbalanced.  Each team will play 7 of their interleague opponents 4 times each (2 at home, 2 away), and the remaining opponent 8 times (4 at home, 4 away).

After that stretch of games, the remainder of the season is intraleague only.

My $60 million team has 2-3 relievers that are tired but the starters are hanging in there. My $80 mil team has the bullpen completely under 100% but no one in blue yet, unlike the $60 mil squad.

It's possible to set up the divisions, so every single person is in a division with every other single person exactly once.  Use this grid and randomly assign each person a letter.

Division----- 60M-- 80M-- 90M-- 100M-- 110M
           
NL East A A A A A
  B E H K N
  C F I L O
  D G J M P
           
NL West E B B B B
  H H E F G
  M K L I J
  P N O P M
           
AL East F C C C C

AL West G D D D D

You would probably move divisions around so owners didn't end up in the same side of the league all the time as well maybe?  In the above, Owners A and B would always be in the NL and never face one another in the WS.

Guys, I am dealing with some stuff outside of WIS right now and will not get the standings updated for a few days.  Please accept my apologies.
