Of course the Jags would sit Fournette this morning after saying all week that he would play... and of course I would be too busy at work to pull him out.

So much for the undefeated season...

It was looking decent for like the first hour of football today. But no man should ever have to decide between Eli and Dalton for a QB. Unless it was like two years ago.

I've never been in a position where I'd have been at least tempted to tank until this weekend, as my team is clearly better built for the consolation bracket to say the least.

At least my team will die doing what I loved, trying to find implausible lottery tickets.

Also, style points to spacejung, who locked up third place even with an IR'ed Carson Wentz as his starting QB. That puts spacejung in the money for 2 boxes of beer, plus he still holds the highest single game point total prize which bumps him up to 3 boxes, assuming no one tops 159.8 points next week.

I’m confused how you calculate 3rd place in this league? In other leagues I’ve been in it’s been typically the winner of the consolation game?

Yeah, sorry I'm a moron. Editted my post above, but third place is still to be determined based on the outcome of your game with dphi.

Hey dudes, just wanted to write a quick post to congratulate the winner of ISO:FT season 4...it's uh... oh poo poo it's me! gently caress yeah, it's me! I'd like to thank Le'veon Bell and Alvin Kamara for carrying me all season.

Congrats to our other winners, too:
Zam - second place
Umop - third place
Highest game score - spacejung
Winner loser's bracket - baldrash

Nice work to everyone and thanks for an awesome season. I will confirm everyone's email addresses and do an effort post after new years to work out the shipping assignments and timelines.

Lastly, it should go without saying but please don't be a shitlord and forget the solemn promise that you made at the beginning of the season to live up to your end of the bargain. Even if you didn't end the season in the money this year, it's still a good feeling to wow someone else with a dope box of beers. :cheers:

I knew I had an uphill battle against Bell and Kamara, and luckily nobody decided to show up to help (looking at you Crabtree and Theo).

Thanks for running everything this year, and cheers to everyone for playing! Look forward to shipping out and prepping for next year.

Good point. I would still like everyone to confirm their contact info and to let me know if weather will be a factor in sending/receiving beers, but that's about it. I've adjusted the required answers so you can skip putting in your address or whatever if you want.

All shipping assignments have just gone out via email. Please let me know if you didn't receive one.

I randomized the list while doing my best to make sure that two people weren't shipping to each other and that each recipient was matched with as many people who were outside their region as possible. Hopefully this leads to each of the winners getting stuff that they can't find locally. Here's how it broke down:

pre:
Recipient                  Shipper(s)
Mikey Purp      <----      hatfulofhollow, Catfish Noodlin, Retemnav, umop apisdn, dphi
Zam             <----      Mikey Purp, Alfalfa, veritek83
umop apisdn     <----      Baldrash, spacejung
Baldrash        <----      Zam
spacejung       <----      Avenged
If anyone has any questions, please reply in thread or reply to my shipping assignment email. I think it's also a good idea to set a deadline for everyone to receive their boxes. Should we say by the Super Bowl (February 4th)? That gives everyone about a month, and we can make exceptions if there are any winners who don't want to receive beer right now due to weather.
