After the massacre which has been this year's kicker eliminator, I decided to step up and create a new equally frustrating and stupid kicker game. World Cup Football Challenge 2015 ***STARTING WEEK 6*** ***KICKER PICK MUST BE IN NO LATER THAN FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16TH*** The Rules There are two stages to this game--the groups and single-game elimination. Group Stage 1) You pick one kicker who will be your kicker for the entire challenge (important see rule 4a below). If your kicker is injured, the back-up kicker for your kicker's team will be the replacement starting the following game. 2) You will be assigned a group and matched up to go head-to-head with another player, playing every team in the group. Depending on the number of people playing will determine how large the bracket gets--if I need to add 1st round byes or wildcard slots, it will be determined first by total points of all group games for, then point differential, then longest FG successfully kicked. 3) You get 1 point for every XP made, 3 points for every FG made regardless of distance. Likewise, if you have a missed FG you lose 3 points, however a missed XP and you lose 6. 4) The winner of the game gets 3pts, a tie is 1pt each, a loss is 0pts. ---4a) Going to change this rule with a good idea of defaultluser defaultluser posted:Pick a secondary kicker that you will use in the case of a tie. This means if two people both picked Crosby (Packers), and their back up kickers were Santos (Chiefs) and Scobee (Steelers), it would be Santos vs Scobee for the match. 5) After the group stage is done, approx half of the teams will be brought into the single elimination bracket stage. If your team does not make it in the top 50% your season is over (again). Bracket Stage Your kicker will be placed in a seeded bracket where the same rules apply as above, however if you lose you are eliminated from the tournament. Winner Prize Winner gets avatar upgrade of choice for him/herself or another user. Good Luck!

Justin Tucker is a beautiful man. We're going steady! But I'm not sure he's the right man for this job, since the rest of the Ravens offense sucks. I'll get back you you on my pick. defaultluser fucked around with this message at 15:35 on Oct 7, 2015 |

Lots of repeats going to need a tie breaker like longest fieldgoal of the week or something.

Elephanthead posted:Lots of repeats going to need a tie breaker like longest fieldgoal of the week or something. My solution was this: quote:---4a) Note since it'd be an auto-tie if two people picked the same kicker, I will use a random number generator to select the primary kicker from all 32 teams for both players. If someone has a better idea, I'm all ears.

c0ldfuse posted:My solution was this: Pick a secondary kicker that you will use in the case of a tie. All kicker combinations are first-come, first-served? You'd have 31^2 possible combinations, which should be enough for everybody. (reverse order of same kickers is a separate and valid combination) Makes it a little more complex since you will have to double-check all previous posts before you make your own selection, but it guarantees you get the kicker you want even in the event of a tie. It still allows multiple people to choose the same kicker as their primary or secondary. You just can't have the same combination as another person. defaultluser fucked around with this message at 05:45 on Oct 9, 2015 |
