Trade deadline is passed.... 1 game left in Week 13 and then onto the final week of the regular season. It really is too close to call. Projected rankings are even stupid close. In the Draw division projected standings at the end of the season look like this.

Thats 5 teams tied for 2 playoff byes and 4 games between 15th and 1st! Seriously crazy and I haven't look at how this week is going to finish, but props to everyone in the Draw Division. @mwr57 is projected to grab the 16th and final spot in playoffs with a 16-12 record. Then 2 teams at .500 miss out at 14-14. Having 18 of 28 teams with .500 or better records is a bit terrifying. 

The Fade Division is also tight but certainly a different situation with Cmart having a good lead. Also their 16th ranked team sneaks in with a 12-16 record. Again these are fantrax projected so don't take too much stock in them. For reference they had me only loosing 3 games not too long ago and I've had a wonderful 1-5 stint I think in 3 weeks.  Regardless good luck to all in the final weeks of the regular season!

Wait.......  how do they expect me to get 3 more wins?  lol

We have 4 games left with this week in play? Your guess is as good as mine.

This was a good season, not so much for my team, good luck to all who are making the playoffs.

So when are we starting the golf fantasy league again?

I usually try to get that going before the new year. Stand by.

BTW to those in the Fade Division, I've crunched the numbers... 19-9 will guarantee a bye if results hold this week. Congrats to @Camcmart by the way for locking up the top seed with room to spare.

I must thank @blackngold_blood for either talking me off a trade ledge or not pushing me harder to make a trade happen

[GolfSpy_APH]

Draw Division Congrats to these teams for securing their playoff births. Even though seeding and the final 4 spots are still very much up for grabs!

In Draw we also have 8 teams who could make the final 4 spots... looks like it could come down to points scored for the final spot as well!

Fade we have 13 teams who secured their rights into the playoffs.

Leaving a few spots open for some change

Just gonna throw this out there now to add some possible excitement and stress to make the final 4.  If I do happen to make the final 4 and win I will be trading the GT to any of the other 3 interested. Now I can tell you that if I win it isn’t a guarantee that #2 gets the ticket. I have a criteria I will be considering and will be revealed should I actually win it.  Good luck to everyone this week. Hopefully those fighting for a spot don’t have byes to worry about!

Tough year - it's like I was allergic to making a good trade. lol  Oh well, good luck to the folks with better teams than me.

Looking forward to fantasy golf now.

I mean, you could also just take the cash prize instead...

I mean, if you want to make a trade, I will give you my lovely 23rd spot on the regular league and current 3rd on the circus league for the GT.

If I recall correctly, and I may need @STUDque to back me up since he was taking on the financial side of this, if you win the league you do have the choice of forfeiting the GT prize, which is Golden Ticket plus your money back in exchange for the first cash prize, which I do not remember what that was agreed to in the thread. Golden ticket would then be offered to second place, who would choose between that and the next money prize, then potentially to third or fourth.

Again, this presupposes a win by either a current golden ticket holder from golf like yourself, someone already in a testing opportunity like myself or a potentially Mod victory like @GolfSpy_APH, something I'm sure that the league will fight like hell to stop at any means.

PLAYOFFS

This was mentioned in the early season discussions but I wanted to put this out there as definitive since I finally got around to putting together the bracket. Top 16 in each division will play in the playoffs..top 4 in each receive a first round bye. We'll be following this manual (outside of Fantrax) bracket:

 

And to the money aspect, here's what the final payouts will look like:

Total Money Collected: $580
Less Fantrax Fee: $580

Fantrax waived fee for this season only. We kept the $10 entry because 1)we had already collected from a number of players 2)bigger payouts this year without the fee eating it up and 3)we'll have to pay next year anyway so may as well get used to it. 

• Miss Playoffs or get eliminated in the first round: $0 
  • As voted on by the league
• Make it to Round 2, Semifinals: Refund $10 entry fee
  • First round byes automatically qualify for this as a minimum
• Finish 4th in the Super Bowl: $100
• Finish 3rd in the Super Bowl: $150
• Finish 2nd in the Super Bowl: $200
• Win Super Bowl: $10 entry + MGS Golden Ticket + FF Champ Badge
  • Golden Ticket is a free selection into any of the Official MGS Tests for 2022
  • Champ can defer prize to 2nd place (or further) in lieu of $$ payout IF the recipient accepts the trade

Worth playing for? Good Luck!

Getting passed like a dead animal on the side of the road for the bye week is a great feeling.
