Oh, and just in case you forgot the format- all four of these teams will be playing two more times. There are the semifinals, and then there is the championship round featuring the bronze medal game between the semi losers and the title game for the winners. In other words, none of your current active players stands any chance of being eliminated.

In the lead! - So let me lose it!

Mithrim vs Vinyamar - Mithrimn wins Gondolin vs Utumno - Gondolin wins If I was wise I would have predicted from the leading position the very same you all others did, but then again that's not me. I love to gamble (when it's not a question or real money or something). So let me see Gondolin finally breaking the Utumno defences! (Led by Aredhel and Eöl, of course...) |

Utumno will beat Gondolin
Vinyamar to beat Mithrim. |
GK - Hama (Wold)
DF - Nimrodel (Lorien) DF - Balrog #1 (Utumno) DF - Gothmog II (Pelennor) DF - Treebeard (Wold)* MF - Goldberry (Breeland) MF - Glorfindel (Gondolin) MF - Eol (Gondolin)* MF - Melkor (Utumno)** C FW - Isildur (Barad-Dur) FW- Mablung (Nargothrond) That was my team; I stuck by them for a long time. But now - some have to go. I can make 4 changes so get rid of: Treebeard*, Goldberry, Isildur and Mablung. Bring in: Turin**, Curufin**, Maeglin* and Voronwe.

Blah. I don't have any of my stats with me here in Frisco - well, here in the US anyway, and I had totally forgotten this for a few days.

TEN POINT AWARDS: Congratulations to Fea/Nienna, Eomer, Morm, Nerwen, Skip, McCaber, and Sally for correctly predicting the most goals for a player (Turin, Feanor, & Maeglin scored 6). Congrats to Gwath and Shasta for predicting Nerdanel of Tirion to have the most assists. Congrats to Boromir for predicting Gondolin to win the championship. FIVE POINT AWARDS: Congrats to no one for predicting Rog of Vinyamar or Ungoliant of Utumno to be the goalkeepers to score the most phantasy points. Congrats to Morm and Gwath for predicting Curufin as the leading defensive point earner. Congrats to Eomer, Morm, Gwath, and Skip for picking Melkor as the leading midfielder for phantasy points. Congrats to Eomer, Gwath, Wilwa, Nerwen, and McCaber for choosing Feanor to have the most phantasy points for a forward. So if we add up all of the additional points, here’s what we end with...... FINAL POINT STANDINGS Han says "Come on baby hold together."- 308 Klong Toey Soi Dogs- 297 The Lynch Mob- 296 Noggportunistics- 295 Nerwen's Noble Achievers- 294 The Howls of Raven’s Run- 257 Insert Clever Name Here- 252 Sally Ho!- 243 The Muffins of Muchness- 236 Eönwë's Egregious Aggregate- 220 Annihilationistic Anomalies- 219 The Next-to-Last Alliance- 192 Fea-Ni- 167 Magnum- 116 Ben Jonson- 97 A hearty slap on the back to Boromir for bringing home the gold in what was a very very competitive race! The two former champs, Skip and Gwath, finished in second and third, and Nog and Nerwen were right on their heels. As a matter of fact each of those four was only one point behind the other! And of course there were many others in the competition. Some got off to slow starts and finished stronger, while others started fine but tailed off at the end. That might win some leagues, but with the teams that were in this competition having more than one off round was a killer. Better luck next time to everyone. Perhaps next season will be your breakthrough. |
Well done, everybody.

Well done all, I dub myself King of Mediocrity! I never did too poorly but never did great :rolleyes:

Individual round winners...
Let's break down the points and see who won the most from predictions as well as in each round.
PRE-TOURNEY GROUP PREDICTIONS- Gwath (27) PRE-TOURNEY SCORING PREDICTIONS- Gwath (25) 1ST GROUP PLAY- Nogrod (58) 2ND GROUP PLAY- Nerwen (43) 3RD GROUP PLAY- Gwath (47) 1ST PLAYOFFS- Boro (48) QUARTERFINALS- Sally (42) SEMIFINALS- Boro (36) FINALS- Boro (43) So, very well done Gwath on the predictions- 52 points altogether! A pat on the back to Nog for the largest single point gain of the tournament- his whopping 58 points in the first round! As you can see, our champ (Boro) was the strongest finisher, winning three of the final four rounds. |
Fourth? :(
Well that suits me right. I was too much out in the last rounds - and anyway my initial predictions were soo wrong that I earned to drop in the end - like my favourites to the World Cup Germany dropped out... :mad: But it was fun anyway. I hope I can be more consistent the next year. Let's end with a High-note though... so please answer the question below (into the thread: my PM's will be overcrowded as I need to arrange stuff with meeting people while visiting the US...) Arda Cup is... a) as important as the soccer World Cup. b) a game for the geeks only. c) fun but depressing. d) a chance to show my allegiances. e) ? (your own description) The winner of this questionnaire will receive a free gift from the AKM! |

This is late, 'cause I've been preoccupied– but congratulations, Boro!
And thanks for the game, phantom! (Sorry, still can't rep you yet.) |
