Season 16: Update 2. (August 19th)Almost 3 weeks (19 days, actually) since my first update, and it is way past time for another one! All groups are well underway, so let's look at the standings. Won't be going into any details about who beat who, but take a look at Rheumakay's spreadsheet which has all that info and a lot more!
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/12afl9z8HGkipNLbgGEKItI2r85egLlSC9s6AusqVF0w/editOne piece of news that I'm quite excited about before I get into it. I finally saved up enough coins to buy a lifetime membership yesterday! I enjoyed the chance to try the pick-swap mod on small earth 1 wasteland, as well as some other membership features. :D
Group A:huddyj (6-0)
Rheumakay (2-0)
ARand0mPlayer (2-2)
Suschel (2-2)
PhucilliJerry (1-1)
GuestNWHSzY (1-3)
dauti (1-4)
Ragnar Lothbrok (0-0)
Seggel (0-3) dropping out
I am very happy with the way Group A has played out so far. I am leading on 6 wins, with matches still ongoing against Rheumakay and Ragnar Lothbrok, who are at present the only other undefeated players. Seggel is leaving at the end of this season, and will be missed. Definitely too early to call a result here, but somebody is going to have to win a lot of games to take the title away from me. Guest, Seggel, and dauti can be ruled out already, and if I can get another win, both ARP and Suschel will be as well.
Group B:ADHDnl (4-1)
iNsAnE (4-2)
SNDBX (3-3)
mslasm (2-0)
bzox (2-3)
graemes (2-3)
Checkmqte (1-5)
Hunta (0-1)
ADHDnl leads Group B so far, but did lose to iNsAnE. mslasm hasn't lost a game yet, but hasn't really played enough to get a read on. Probably will be in the mix for promotions though. Hunta is also an unknown at the moment, with the only completed game being a loss to iNsAnE. Checkmqte looks likely to receive a relegation.
Group C:Baer (7-2)
rocky1 (5-2)
Tof (4-0)
Ameter (4-2)
kirdol (4-3)
k.o. (4-4)
Fc Bayern (3-4)
Hasdrubal (2-2)
Bonsai (1-8) dropping out
Taji (1-8)
After defeating Taji in his opening game, Bonsai decided to drop out of the league, so surrendered his remaining games. Taji potentially got unlucky there! However, looking at the standings, it hasn't changed anything. Baer is looking very strong here, and probably only rocky1 or Tof are still in the running to challenge him for Group B victory.
Group D:Diestramenos 4-2)
KaitoS (4-2)
Meldarion (4-2)
Thorben (3-2)
Olja (3-3)
jac (1-4)
Kevin Turner (1-5)
Dimitris_Wingo (0-0)
Group D looks like it may take a while, as Dimitris still hasn't completed a single game. In fact, the only game remaining that doesn't involve him is jac vs Thorben! Very tight at the top, with Meldarion, KaitoS, and Diestramenos each at 4 wins 2 losses, and Thorben likely to be there soon as well. Results against Dimitris will be crucial in deciding placings here.
Group E:Cata Cauda (3-1)
Matt431 (3-1)
GeniusJKlopp (3-2)
s1gmoyd (2-2)
Brian the Brave(1-2)
Star-Lord (0-4)
Cata Cauda and Matt431 are tied at 3-1 each, with only their head-to-head game left in progress for them. Whoever gets the win there will win Group E! Things will be tight for the next few placings, with a likely 3-way tie from 2nd-4th.
Group F1:ZZA (9-1)
BlacKnight (8-1)
tris (8-2)
{101st} Syphen (7-3)
Pavluski (5-3)
Linws2 (4-6)
Roele (4-6)
foul play (2-6)
Kwame (2-7)
Not Hitler (2-7)
Dianne Abrams (0-9)
Group F1 has been won by ZZA, who took the lead early on and just lost one game to tris along the way. Congrats ZZA! BlacKnight will take second without needing to wait for his last game to finish, as he beat tris, and lost to ZZA. tris finishes in 3rd place. Syphen will finish 4th, as he has already beaten Pavluski, who will finish 5th. Dianne Abrams has come last, while the other results are still to be confirmed.
Group F2:Tainted Monk (10-0)
Hergul (8-1)
Phoenix (6-4) dropping out
(Teishi) mōshiwakearimasen min'na (5-4)
Andre Laufmöller (5-4)
Fizzer (5-4)
Octane (5-4)
roan (2-7)
Lew (1-0)
Akai the Guy (1-8)
TianO (0-5)
Captain Trips (0-7)
Tainted Monk is almost certain to win Group F2, but almost surprisingly, he is not yet guaranteed the victory. He will want to win his final match against Lew to seal it and sweep the group. Hergul looks very likely to finish in second, with Lew needing a pretty amazing streak to steal one of the top spots, despite being currently undefeated. Phoenix is dropping out, so the log jam of 4 players on 5 wins 4 losses becomes a tussle for a potential 3rd placing.
Group F3:Hazlenut (7-2)
koso (7-2)
Menda (7-2)
hi (6-2)
Viking1007 (5-3)
888 (3-6)
Boakill (3-6)
BST (3-6)
(chaos) I stabbed the lord and got chat-banned (2-7)
swiekr (1-8)
Wiz Wizz Wizznson (0-0)
This group is pretty tight at the top, although with wins over koso and Menda, Hazelnut has the outright lead for now. hi is on the wrong side of it against those 2, but did beat Hazelnut to keep in contention for the top. Viking has been very consistent, with losses against the top 3, and wins against all those under him. Wiz Wizz still hasn't finished a game, so unfortunately is likely to hold up this group significantly.
