Week 19 Roundup: Where Have All The Foul Outs Gone? Edition

Well, unfortunately, foul outs still haven't been restored and it is with great sadness that I cannot write the Midseason Donkies. I was hoping Yahoo! would have restored them by now but they continue to donk it. Not only does it affect this blog post but foul club GMs have to take an extra step if they so choose to see how much fouling a certain player is doing. The saving grace is that the Midseason Donkies are kind of pointless, they were really just created so I could make a post during the Donk-Star Break, but rarely do I refer to them in a different season. Though, they can be a good gauge and predictor for the actual award show at the end of the season. Anyway, let's get into this week's post.

200-295 points: Average week
300-395 Points: Great Week
400-495 Points: Excellent Week
>=500 points: Amazing week
 
Now this was also a short week so we can keep the adjusted weekly point gauge-thingy above. Rodman'sWeddingDress had a horrible week of just 65 points and stays in last place. Ohsnappers!!! had a poor week of 150 points and stays in 8th place. F'N FLOPPERS had a great week of 300 points and stays in 7th place. Arlington Assaulters had an average week of 245 points and stays in 6th place. 

Gamblor had a horrible week of 90 points but stays in 5th place. Baltimore Hitsquad had a great week of 375 points and stays in 4th place. Pgastan FC had an average week of 270 points and stays in 3rd place. GG Foulin' had a great week of 390 points and stays in 2nd place. Finally, Oww Ming's Flagrants had a poor week of 185 points but stays atop the standings. 

Points Graph:
 
 
Tier 6: Ohsnappers!!!, Rodman'sWeddingDress
Tier 5: F'N FLOPPERS
Tier 4: Arlington Assaulters
Tier 3: Baltimore Hitsquad, Gamblor 
Tier 2: GG Foulin', Pgastan FC
Tier 1: Oww Ming's Flagrants
 
With no change in the standings comes no change in the tiers. It appears as if the league has pretty mnuch settled and all that remains are a few duels within the tiers. The closest duel is PFC and GG Foulin' for 2nd and the next closest is Rodman and Ohsnappers!!! for 8th. There could be another tier added next week if Gamblor and Baltimore continue to separate from each other. I could have made that a separate tier this week but since we've had 2 short weeks, I'm giving Gamblor the benefit of hte doubt. Will we have an unprecedented 7th tier by next week? Tune in then to find out!
 
Well that's it for now.
 
Keep Foulin' Y'all!

Week 18 Roundup: Foul Outs Coming Soon? Edition

So I attempted to write the Midseason Donkies last night knowing certain stats would have to be taken with a grain of salt since Foul Outs aren't appearing correctly in the season stats under the player tab. I only got a few minutes out and saw that all foul outs were gone. Hopefully, this means Yahoo! is 1. aware of the problem and 2. trying to fix it. I was hoping they would do this during the Donk-Star break but I wasn't going to be on it. If it can get fixed by Thursday I can write the Donkies (I have the post saved as a draft currently. Otherwise I really can't as it would start adding 2nd half stats into the fray. I could still publish a post by Thursday though, well see what the situation is by then. Anyway, now on to this week's post.

Since this was a short week (most foulers only had 2 games this week) I adjusted the weekly ranking system to reflect that (see above).  RodmansWeddingDress had an average week of 215 points and stays in last place. Ohsnappers!!! had a poor week of 195 points and stays in 8th place. F'N FLOPPERS had a poor week of 135 points and stays in 7th place. Arlington Assaulters had a great week of 310 points and stays in 6th place. 

Gamblor had an average week of 230 points and stays in 5th place. Baltimore Hitsquad had an average week of 260 points and stays in 4th place. Pgastan FC had an average week of 260 points and stays in 3rd place. GG Foulin' had an average week of 230 points and stays in 2nd place. Oww Ming's Flagrants had an average week of 205 points and stays in 1st place. 

Points Graph:
 
 
Tier 6: Ohsnappers!!!, Rodman'sWeddingDress
Tier 5: F'N FLOPPERS
Tier 4: Arlington Assaulters
Tier 3: Baltimore Hitsquad, Gamblor 
Tier 2: GG Foulin', Pgastan FC
Tier 1: Oww Ming's Flagrants
 
With no change in the standings, comes no change in the tiers. Pretty uneventful week overall but that's to be expected when foulers are only out there for 4 days as opposed to the normal 7. 
 
Well that's it for now.
 
Keep Foulin' Y'all!
