    Quite happy to be in the "Almost there" yokey, tis a step up from the Try Harder last time. Though.... not very happy with some of the other "Try Harder" teams, some pretty damn tough competition there and just when my league situation is desperate :(

    Obviously, people are free to organise friendlies for the coming Monday.

    Results and fixtures for the playoffs are up now. As per usual, shout if you see problems.

    How did you decide who is ranked where? The first ranked person should be the team with the most points, the second ranked person the team with the second most points and so on. Surely its fairer that way?

    So for example, looking just at 'The Champions Cup' play-offs, the rankings based on highest to lowest points should be...

    1. Daves Dangerman
    2. Scorched Earth
    3. Everyone Likes A Tryer
    4. Munster Mark II

    5. Bogwarriors
    6. Forza Juve
    7. XaviXV
    8. Yermen

    Then it would 1 vs 8, 2 vs 7 and so on. Or am I confusing myself?

    No, you are correct. I used this system for the try harder trophy, to allow for the missing team. For the other playoffs, I used the original system:

    Give me a nod, and i'll change the other playoffs to the rankings system you have outlined above.

    Ah right, its my fault for the confusion then. I actually used the 1 vs 8, 2 vs 7 etc system last season for all the play-offs (and will doing the same this season), wasn't aware I outlined it differently originally.

    No worries, I've updated the offsite accordingly.
    For the record, the order of merit for the almost there award quarter finals is as follows:
    Team Points (Points Difference)
    polk high 16 (78)
    curly sue 16 (39)
    rebels 15
    killarney 14
    gnomes 11 (5)
    simpeltons 11 (-25)
    geraldine 9
    t.rucked 9

    Unfortunately, about 7 teams have failed to accept their fixtures. So get to it quickly.
