At this point, I wouldn't say I am completely tanking. I'm definitely in a rebuild, and I haven't decided exactly what I want to do yet. I'm disappointed in the transfer compare on my top trainees, so I don't think a selloff is necessarily the way to go. That said, I surely won't be challenging for promotion this season. I probably would have one win right now, but half my salary on the floor was injured 10 minutes into a game.

Next up, the rival! What surprises will he produce? Switching to LI?
My players know I'll give them tinnitus not to become Flip Saunders of DIII.6

Hello! 2 more games in, so we're slowly getting a picture of who the leaders of the league are.The Traptors look like the team to beat early, and I'm betting Eclypze isn't done with shaping his roster just yet. Great start for East Gary Eagles, though! We'll see how they do as the season goes on, but with Cathar in rebuild mode, that side of the league could be up for grabs.

POWER RANKINGS
1. Toronto Traptors, 22.148; EVEN
2. Eclypze, 11.802; EVEN
3. East Gary Eagle. 9.389; EVEN
4. Lake Charles Creoles, 6.531; UP 5
5. Natellio, 4.985; EVEN
6. Demon Hoosier, 2.202; UP 8
7. Cow Lickers, 2.085; UP 5
8. The Door Mats, 1.077; DOWN 1
9. Lakey, -0.873; UP 2
10. Chicken Hawks, -0.994; DOWN 1
11. Thunderhorse, -2.236; DOWN 1
12. The Veggies, -2.457; DOWN 7
13. CA Foriegners, -3.019; DOWN 7

It seems to me that there is a particularly low volume on the TL right now. It's both a bad market for buying and selling, which seems a little rare. I'm guessing things will open up a bit once teams start dropping out of the tournament. I have an old NBBA rival as my next opponent, and it looks like he is in a similar roster quagmire.

6 games in! The only defeated team left is East Gary Eagles, in a wonderful turnaround from last season. Lots of teams tanked this week, presumably for cup games. Still aren't seeing the complete picture of this league yet with lots of rebuilds and money saving going on.

I've divided us into sections this week, based on the ratings.

Power Rankings

Above the Rest
1. Toronto Traptors, 20.426

Contenders
2. Eclypze, 12.153
3. East Gary Eagles, 11.834

Fighting for the Playoffs
4. Cow Lickers, 5.223
5. Lake Charles Creoles, 4.942
6. Natellio, 3.823
7. Chicken Hawks, 3.737
8. lakey, 0.926
9. The Door Mats, 0.837

Struggling
10. Thunderhorse, -0.319
11. CA Foreigners, -1.119
12. Demon Hoosiers, -1.888
13. The Veggies, -2.913
14. Bushrods, -6.988

Giving up?
15. Cathar Heretics, -18.505
16. Extra Crispy, -32.169

One last heads up: I'm working on implementing an update in my formula to include effort differences. This way, if you get Ct'd an lose, it's not as big of a deal as an even effort loss. And if you normal a TIE and lose, you're worse off. This should reward those saving enthusiasm, and give a good picture on where teams stand towards the end of the season, when enthusiasm really matters. Hope to have that next Wednesday.

Haha. Sorry! Maybe the enthusiasm change will help...

I will say, that a 2-4 record will not help :) Your biggest issue though is that you have the 3rd to last average ratings. See below.

Eclypze: 6.907
Chicken Hawks: 6.732
Lake Charles: 6.722

Thunderhorse: 6.519
East Gary: 6.445
lakey: 6.417
Cow Lickers: 6.370
Door mats: 6.305
CA Foriegners: 6.176

We just got trounced by Eclypse. It certainly doesn't put us above the rest.
I really hope Extra Crispy are just in a quick rebuild. They've brought crispiness to the league.

Taking nothing away from smedlock, but he did home CT your away TIE. That makes it tough to really say where you two stand head to head.

WooHoo from 12th to 7th to 4th in the power rankings. Hopefully i can stay in that area i dont plan on contending this season possibly next season depends on how my training goes. But honestly i dont really see anyone at the moment being able to compete with Traptors unless we all CT 'em and they miss the playoffs :)
