It still doesn't make sense, his cup game is a walkover.


I'm not saying that it makes sense, but it's what I thought he'd do. He did the same thing last season a couple times, sitting the two best guards in one game to concentrate on the bigger game. Don't understand why they'd need to sit out completely, but Wake Forest has been up here a hell of a lot longer than I have, so what do I know?

Actually we both over-thought it - he hasn't logged on since 1/8 and that is apparently his default lineup.

I'm glad I figured this out before I normal'd today.

Still surprising that his preset team was the LI team...

But awesome still....

In other news, Aldo Ferrante popped to tremendous experience. My love for him grows every day. It makes Juice's Dirk obsession look like an ill-advised fake punt.

I hate you. Get ahold of me somewhere else and I'll tell you why.

A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score

Well, after two games I think I can safely call this season mine to win. After beating a team that hasn't logged in 10 days (with a suboptimal default lineup) and a virtual bot, I don't think anyone can take me down...

I'm honestly pretty annoyed that I only lost by 9 whilst TIEing with a C at PG. Really annoyed. :)

Unrelated to your comment, but I love the absolute randomness of the "double double" announcements. Talk about an algorithm going rogue...


Where? :D

Lol, totally missed that. I don't think I've watched more than 3 games since I realized that the result is worked out 15mins before tip-off. :D (Mostly due to the fact they were at 1am in the UK, and now i'm in the US, 5pm is a tough time too!)

In the gameviewer. They added a little color line that says "X now has a double double", except it comes up at all kinds of odd times, like when X just missed a shot and has 3 pts and 4 rbds, or sometimes even when X is on the bench!

I have to say, it seems like it's incorrect way more often than it's correct... like 3:1 at least. Seems like a case of someone coding it, assuming it'll work and not bother ever testing it. Although it was nice to see that one of my backups, having played 9 minutes and gone 0-4 shooting, got the double-double vs edju last night. Good little boost for his self-esteem.
