D2 Finals Update

II.1 - Finger Rolls (HCA) win game 1 over Oakland Soldiers 95-72 on equal effort. Looks like mfork is a heavy favorite to promote.

II.2 - How's my Dirk Taste wins game 1 on the road over TWSS (HCA), 100-88. TWSS used less effort, but now manager red and HMDT have a chance to close out at home.

II.3 - Lovable Losers (HCA) hold off the Visionaries to win game 1, 104-98, on equal effort. Games 2 and potentially 3 should be very interesting if Game 1 is any indication.

II.4 - KDB (HCA) wins game 1 over Bullish Mentality, 99-78, but used more effort. Manager AZ will have to hope the enth boost is enough to pull an upset in a potential game 3, or brian will be back in the NBBA.

I actually think that's kinda balls that jfarb is letting Coco off "for the greater" good. Should be going for it IMO. might never get another chance.

Lol, genius!

EDIT: I'm going to try and work it out.

Start with $2m, and add 2% every 3 mins for 5 hours. that's 100 bids, i know there's a math equation in a dusty book somewhere for this...


EDIT 2: Looks like he needs a friend with $14.5 mil, and if bought back that would cost Coco $450k, not a bad price.

Dube's injury ended the small chance I had of winning legitimately. Building an offense entirely around 2 players is a risky business. Lesson learned.

Yeah, I guess i just feel that the Big 8 was a joke this season, and can't really see the benefit of all this throwing of games etc, just seems a little off I guess.

I'm sure it'll be back to top level next season though.

I figure I netted over $1.2M from tanking the end of the season.

I was losing a little bit each week as my revenue dropped pretty significantly from my first NBBA season despite being in the leading position for the conference.

I'm not sure if I'll do it again, but the weakness of the conference presented an opportunity to risk-free tank last season and I decided to take it.

Anyone know when the first game of next season is? Taking the family on a cruise and wondering when I need to set my first lineup by?
