I really hope GE takes the time to include the [imaginary] reactions to the managers. You know like, smashing his screen etc.

When you have a busy day and finally get a chance to get back on Warlight, only to find you've been booted:

lol

Also Darkpie lost 2, at least 1 by boot. Any info?

Some players are bigger boot liabilities than others.

So clearly I have been busy, so much so that I'm drowning on warlight and would love to put this account on vacation if only Manager's League allowed vacations, but that's beside the point I guess.

I apologize for the shoddy updating I've been doing. Starting a new clan then getting slammed in school while looking for a job has meant I need to cut back on things and Manager's League (with Warlight in general) having been the only way to keep up with life.

Assuming nothing can disrupt my plan for the week, I will have time on Saturday to look at this league again and do updates for both Division A and B. There will be extensive updates so I hope people can sit tight for another 4 days.

No problem GE! Hope it eases up for you. Btw, I can keep the scores up to date. You just do the forum posts :P

Can we get a score update? Last one was 25th.

Great Expanse has said he will post a detailed update here on Saturday. Motd is updating the spreadsheet (daily?) until then. Here's something to keep everyone going til Saturday though:

It is mathematically impossible for;

Legends of Light to win Division A

Spuds to be relegated from Division A, if they take their points total above 62 (61 at time of writing)

EDIT: Spuds have met the target and cannot be relegated from Division A at the end of this season

Btw whoever owns Chriznu. I think we have to reunite him with Butterfly. And I'm not selling her, so... ;-)

Chriznu

It's not that hard to spell :P It's just crazychu with a K and no A

So Krzychu.

Update please!

updates are always at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TrROyrlweJm1Z77tpTfN0Fieaistkvm5sHygLAnDzXI/edit#gid=956694772

Yeah, but that has a typo. For example, my teammates are 3-1 on Pangea, but the sheet says they have 8 points. He must not have formulas for those derived columns.

Max pts is right, but we should be at 56 pts total.

What would be cool is to see pts/salary for the team. I'm sure he'll do that analysis at the end though to determine player worth.

Yes I said the update was going to be Saturday. You can thank my hangover for wasting half of Saturday when I wanted to get the update done. It will be Sunday for sure, the charts are all updated I just need to write up the posts. Its after midnight and I want to sleep so....

@ChrisCMU, I checked and WTF is getting 12 points from 2v2 Pangea so either the issue has been resolved or you were mistaken. Either way its not important anymore.

Group B: DIVISION B Week 3 UPDATE

---

Well everyone has been very patient with me and here we go!



Division B started off with a bang but has settled to more plodding pace. So far it appears this division will be tighter then Division A, but Division A has its own unique race so comparsion isdifficult.

All tournaments, except one, are too early to predict the winner(s). The one exception is 1v1 ME WR where Zappyelf (Alpha Hunters), PhucillJerry (Ventus), and Dr. Love (Cat Attack) all have a shot at winning. All have a 3-1 record, however a three way tie is not possible so there should be a clear winner of that tournament. Others are better at this tie-breaker type analysis then myself, so correct me if I'm wrong.



The Force and Ventus are the current front runners from Division B to promote based on their current track record in my opinion (sorry Alpha Hunters but you just aren't quite in the right position to challenge for the promotion spot yet, thought that can easily change).

Currently I see The Force winning as Mike's team has been more consistent then Ventus in both winning games and maintaining their win rate (see the Point Growth and Win Rates graphs below) as opposed to Ventus which has a longer negative trend regarding their win rate. When Ventus will bottom out with their win rate is the biggest question.

Cat Attack started slow but has moved past F.C. Nazwa and Jingo which are fighting it out for last place. My money is on Jingo finishing last, just look at how flat that line is in the Points Growth graph, its like Saskatchewan (Kansas for Americans).



While it does appear that trendlines are emerging, most points are from 1v1 with only a handful of 2v2 games finished (and no 3v3 games). The shape of this race can easily change over the next few weeks as we pivot to team games.

I'll end on a discussion topic that is more pertinent for Division A then Division B: booting. Division B has much better activity then Division A with only 4 boots I've observed so far. That is miniscule compared to Division A. My working theory on this that Division A has more players from 'elite' clans where activity is more of an issue then the players in Division B. Despite players coming from more humble clans, their activity is higher and should be commended. By keeping Manager's League active, hopefully it can flourish. The point of looking at the boot rate is how it can be fixed. More on that later.

Next week I hope to look at the Season 1 predictions for Division B, it ought to be interesting.

Division A will be posted later today.

Go Ventus!
