Who holds the record for the most times a team has been promoted to the ABBL?

I thought Adams Guns might have had it, but he's only been promoted to the ABBL 3 times which is the same as myself.

Edit

Bryce has promoted to the ABBL on 4 occassions, not sure if anyone else has achieved this tally or more

Probably you two. But adam guns has goe bot hasnt he? So leaves you left.

In other news.

Aussie pride : PO Normal versus monkeybiz, has HCA and should be able to make the grand finals.
bryce who perhaps went PO CT might have chance if aussie pride gets an early injury or two.

Koops : PO Normal against YPB, has HCA but a season ending to Scrimgouer could make things interesting.
Seagulls : PO Normal against abigfishy (only cos I am speculation a collusion between him and his buddy =P), did have the best team in the ABBL til a late Cup run caused some hiccups.

Probably you two. But adam guns has goe bot hasnt he? So leaves you left.

Adams Guns is still alive and healthy in Div IV.61.

By my estimates he would have about 15 mill plus in the bank.

I edited my previous post to note that Bryce has done it 4 times (promotion to the ABBL)

Myself, Pancakes and Snuffies all have 3 promotions aswell. Snuffies looking at making it 4 this season.

Badluck on Keith Andersen yo.
You shouldve went to 600k. =P

Nice game shape update. Your entire team is proficient. Even on the assumption that you trained game shape every week for the last several it still must have been an awesome surprise.

mo chin mo chin la
all i had was 489k hahahha

hehhe yeah training gameshape during the PO is a norm, but I did not expect to win by such a large margin which is why I played PO CT.

Now aussie pride has the edge since he used PO Normal against bryce gibbs.

Congrats Whompa.

Goodbye for now ABBL

I will leave a forwarding address that you can deliver Rivieras MVP to

Great game Koop well done. Now it is you against Aussie Dude obviously the two best teams this season get to meet in the finals. The perfect script. As I said the injury reduced your depth but had little impact on the quality of your starting lineup.

On the other hand it is sad to say goodbye to Whitebeard, C-Cat, ezlife and sid vicious. I m sure we will still be hearing a lot from or about them in the seasons to come.

Who are the likely promotees?

II.1
JW City Bulls v High School Drop-outs
While I am sure Koop and Urumamma are supporting JW (and I guess I am too) HSDO is a verteran manager from season four who has been here before. HSDO has a very low budget team with a $90k high and $30k low in his top five. JW is led by the legendary Shaun McArthur and then has two other $110k plus guys but depth is a massive issue with his number four, five and six guys being 34k, 13k and 6k. Wow I can't believe you can do that will with so little depth. Great work JW.

II.2
North Carlton Cavaliers v Awesome^.-
North Carlton Cavaliers aren't a well known team but started in the legendary season 10. They have no-one above $100k but have five solid $65k or above starters including ex-U21 player Aandarasan Gunasekar. Sundae09 is well known here being a recent ABBL team Due to an injury to long time star Adrian Wills his team now looks like the JW City Bulls. $160, $160, $130, $17, $13. Matchups, tactics, fouls and injuries will all be massive in this series.

II.3
That's How You Get Ants v tannum tantrums
If anyone thought it was painful having sid in the league just wait and see what it is like if we get Sterling_Archer in the league. Two brilliant up and coming managers Anys used to be the Mad Rangas who are veterans from the second toughest division III of all time Australia III.12 which spawned several other amazing managers including Bainsy (RIP). Ants has the incredible $110k ex-U21 star Siggy Jolly out two weeks which must greatly hurt their chances but they still feature some handy players, $130, $110 Gary Howorth and four others $25k or more. dudehowdy only started in season 14 making him a very young potential ABBL team. He is very unusual these days in having an outside based attack led by $116k Zsombor Gál and the famous $83k Clinton Abimbola who is ex-TeamAkuma.

II.4
Coasters v Vios Violationers
Coasters led by drongo only started in season 18 so this is an amazing feat to make it to the division II finals so quickly. However with one guy over $35k the amazement has probably come to a halt. II.4 Big 8 had five total tankers this season which must be a record. On the other hand season four veteran Violator has a rock solid team, Every player is in proficient game shape and there are seven $40k-$100k players including the excellent $86k Chinh Tôn and $104k Rivah Sibley. Maybe the best of the eight finalists vs probably the weakest.

Good luck to all the finalists.

There will be a new ABBL champion again this season. It will be my 3rd time in the finals and aussie prides 2nd time.

Only half the of promotees from this season survived : Wa is a dump and whompas donkeys.
Lets see if next years promotees can do better with less attrition rate.
