I like that idea. I rolled a d4 to eliminate one from the previous list.

- Greaves of Diffusion (x2)
- Ioun Stone Moonstone Orb
- Ring of the Vampire
- St. Gubb's Gorget

I am ok with any selections. I would recommend the hat over the orb but I’m late to the voting

Tokens have been ordered. Good luck this week. The wild card spots are all still very open for grabs so don't give up yet!

Week 1: A Bardic Disappointment did not disappoint in week 1 by setting the high score mark at 140.12

Week 2: Accursed Set Bonus with a 131.42 becomes the second team in the weekly winnings.

Week 3: Hello Kittle keeping the variety alive with another new team and a score of 134.82

Week 4: Whoa....with only 1 player on the roster scoring less than 20 points Accursed Set Bonus likely sets the season high score and takes weekly win number 2 with a goocher and a 199.26 high score.

Week 5: Thought I was going to get my first weekly win, but Scael Bait gets second with a 147.12 and Hello Kittle becomes the second two win team thanks to a 155.82

Week 6: Another super close week with Scrael Bait getting beat out by first time winner Dresden's Wizards. This was the narrowest margin thus far at 130.66 for the Wizards vs. 128.4 from the Scraels.

Week 7: Fantasy Fields finally appears as a weekly winner while securing their 7th win of the season and a healthy 164.64 total.

Week 8: Dresden's Wizards starting to set a trend for closest margin by resetting their week six closest margin of victory. They add their second weekly win with a 130.4 over 129.36 from A Bardic Disappointment.

Week 9: Accursed Set Bonus adds win number 3 and continues the streak of big winning weeks with a 163.42 high score.

Week 10: A new weekly winner with Silver Championship Passage notching a healthy 140.40 weekly high mark.

Week 11: Accursed Set Bonus continues their winning ways with a healthy bet down of the pervious weeks winner. A 131.78 v. 93.10 victory marks their 4th weekly high score.

With 3 weeks left in the regular season every division is still up for grabs, and every team still has a shot at the playoffs. That won't be true after this week. A couple of reminders:
1) The trade deadline is 11/22/25.
2) For those of us who may be out of the hunt after this week please continue to set as competitive a lineup as you can throughout the remainder of the regular season.

Good luck in the final push. I've attached a pic of the loot from this year's token buy. Sadly no Golden Ticket. We did pull two extra UR's, a second Gubb's Gorget and a Branding Mace. To the victors go the spoils!

The central division is fun to watch this year. 3 teams at 6-6 and the 4th at 5-7! That division is in trouble if Orion's luck turns around (huge games then back to 100ish pts every other week.)

2 of the 3 divisions are within 1 game of the division leader changing and 7 teams are within 1 win of each other duking it out for the 3 wildcard slots! Only 1 team has been mathematically eliminated - I don't recall ever seeing a season where 11 of the 12 teams in a league were still in it with 2 weeks left.

Only 2 regular season matchups left!

This has been a very fun year of fantasy football. Crazy to think that no one can rest on their laurels yet.

Pretty amazing finish to the regular season coming up!
6 playoff spots available and 9 of the 12 teams still have a shot at the playoffs! Every seed is still in play from the top 2 bye down slots to the last wild-card.

It looks like 8 wins gets you in for certain (though, it doesn't list Goblins and Gibbs Gubs as guaranteed a spot yet - likely some odd scenario is possible with ties, etc happening if she doesn't win her division with 8 wins possibly missing a wildcard slot?) Going on the projected scoring, we'd have 2 teams with 7 wins getting in.

Good luck all!

Week 12: A Bardic Disappointment adds a second weekly win with 143.28 edging out two team within 7 pts.

Week 13: With a 134.40 total the Dark Forest Druids get their first weekly win in the penultimate regular season contest.

A really competitive season is coming to a head with a full early Sunday slate. Rollin Initiative is staring down the barrels of last seasons powerhouse Of Goblins and Gibbs Gubs, after its namesake popped off with 37 on Thursday Night Football. I've got all the weekly winnings bagged up except for one! I randomize which weekly wins get the treasure draws, 1K bar, 10X DS and bonus potion for the year. As it turned out week 14 got one of the x3 treasure draws, a little extra for the final week. Good luck to everyone in the fight for playoff spots, I'll see the rest of you in the consolation bracket.

Hmm, is there a booby prize? Or a toilet bowl?

Regardless, it's been a fun year. Good luck to you all, and hopefully I will see you at ring con!

We'll have to take a league photo at Ring Con!

Agreed!

Next year, we should add something for the last place team to do. Maybe a pic w Grunnel while holding a sign of “Maybe drafting just Raiders players wasn’t a good strategy…”

Also - even with only MNF left, seeding and who makes the playoffs is still up in the air for several teams!

I thought the non-qualifying teams still competed for the last item. The non playoff team with the most points over the 3 weeks wins the last prize left after all the others were awarded.

Or did we eliminate that this year?

Also - I am looking forward to seeing everyone at RingCon - a fantasy league photo would be great.

Good luck in the playoffs for those that made it (please don’t match me up with Orion, please don’t match me up with Orion - the thought of every other playoff team).
