Also, no jokes about my inability to do basic math while I was rushing to get the thread created.


Jumping the gun a bit on the Season 256 opening thread but never hurts to get ahead of the game!

Got very lucky tonight, but always glad to punish a bad decision.

The incredibly consequential match tonight between High Point Heroes and Kiwi Sheep Pimps was an absolute rollercoaster ride. I don't myself have a rooting interest as the different playoff scenarios that would result are all equally complicated. But even so my heart was racing as leads were changing and shot after shot was made or missed. Hope someone else was watching!

One of the most amazing offensive games I've seen in BBB. And the ball handling was top notch. Very entertaining game.

I sadly watched some of it. I've been on the same roller coaster for 2 games now and still haven't won. I'd promptly like to get off this ride now.


It's not often you see Mr. Banana Hammock Guaraes go scoreless in 37 minutes of play and still obtain a 16.5 rating and a Win on the night. What a performance by the big fella!


All jokes aside, our match prior was as close and competitive as any game I've watched in recent memory. The biggest lead for either team was 6 points(2 different times), multiple lead changes, and finished a 1-point contest. (128632037)

It has been a tough few days in BB for me. Otherwise, life is good.

Heh you're still a strong favorite to promote in a really competitive conference.

I was mad during our match, because I felt that, at home, it shouldn't have been so close even if I was TIE-ing to your normal. The game ratings for the team agreed with my sensation, but the PP100 kind of agreed with the game engine, which suggests my tactics weren't optimal.

It was an honor playing along side y'all this season. Hopefully I make it back up before season 256.

Same! Always fun to have you around. Too bad the thread for season 2^8 wasn't that lively.

I tried to manipulate the standings a bit last week, by punting a game against [Insert Name] so that I could get KSP, and HPH would be away at [Insert Name]. But I did not expect [Insert Name] to open themselves up to a double guess like that!

(If you want to follow the counterfactual scenario: if I beat [Insert Name] in the next to last game-day, I'd have 17-5 and they would have had 16-6. But I think in this scenario, HPH would not punt the last game of the season because they'd have a shot at the 2 seed. So the standings would have been: 1. KSP 2. HPH. 3. BL 4. IN.)

Congrats on the win! I knew it was gonna be a tall task as soon as I failed to secure HCA. I was happy to see I nailed the tactics and kept it tight for the first half, but when Capot fouled out that was game !

Thanks! It was always going to be close and essentially a toss up in my eyes. I was a bit worried because you played the Enthusiasm well and got the GDP to compensate for the HCA.

I've been kicking myself for a few weeks now letting close games slip away earlier and missing out on HCA but I'm thrilled I've been able to survive and emerge from our side of the bracket.
