Hey guys, I'm the GM of the New Brunswick Sentinels and I'm volunteering to collate the owner's polls every week. Every owner, or a team member that they designated, can submit a poll once a week. Ideally, please send me the next week's polls after the games sim, so I can have the collation up on the off day. All notes and comments included are from the polls sent in. As such, they will remain anonymous. Also, the owners could not rank their own team, so this is as unbiased as it can be. Hope this starts some good natured discussion!
Please send in your polls people!
Week 9 Poll: (Note: These were submitted prior to Week 10 sims)
With 6 owners responding:
1. Rochester Vendetta (5 First Place Votes)
2. Missouri Partisan Rangers
3. H-Town Hitmen (1 First Place Vote)
4. North By Gawd Texas Tornado Humpers
5. New Brunswick Sentinels
6. Round Rock 12th Man
7. Olympia Dollar Ninety Nines
8. Jaraguá Breakers
9. Las Vegas Heat
10. Los Angeles Majors
11. New Orleans Voodoo
12. Double T Red Raiders
13. Cinncinati Stallions
14. East Coast Catamounts
15. Houston Gamblers
16. Miranda Reavers
Comments, Week 9: Many teams noted that they placed the Vendetta as #1 because they were undefeated. At the time of this post, they just suffered their first loss. Let's see what happens in the polls. Also, the Voodoo and the Stallions have recently upgraded their roster and may have been overlooked in this week's polling.
That's all for Week 9, see you guys Week 10!
Week 11 Poll: (Note: These were submitted prior to Week 12 sims)
With 8 owners responding:
1. North By Gawd Texas Tornado Humpers [+3] (4 First Place Votes)
2. H-Town Hitmen [+1] (3 First Place Votes)
3. Missouri Partisan Rangers [-1] (1 First Place Vote)
4. New Brunswick Sentinels [+1]
5. Rochester Vendetta [-4]
6. Round Rock 12th Man [0]
7. New Orleans Voodoo [+4]
8. Olympia Dollar Ninety-Nines [-1]
9. Jaragua Breakers [-1]
10. Double T Red Raiders [+2]
11. Cinncinati Stallions [+2]
12. Las Vegas Heat [-3]
13. Los Angeles Majors [-3]
14. East Coast Catamounts [0]
15. Houston Gamblers [0]
16. Miranda Reavers [0]
The Tornado Humpers, Hitmen, Partisan Rangers, and the Sentinels have all clinched playoff spots. The Vendetta, despite losing their last two games and dropping 4 spots in the polls can clinch by winning any one of their remaining games. The New Orleans Voodoo were the biggest gainers in the poll, moving up 4 places, which would presumably place them in the playoffs, making them some serious contenders with a late season push. The 12th Man and the $1.99s round off the current playoff picture. However the last 3 or 4 spots are still widely in contention. There was a lot of movement in the middle of the polls this week and I expect more to come. 10 Wins is the magic number for a playoff spot. Any less than that and it is still up in there up to this point. The playoff picture will become much clearer in the coming weeks. Also, this will be changing to bi-weekly poll, as a poll every other day is a little much, lol. Again, owners, please respond. I'm glad we got 8 contributers this week, let's hope for more in Week 13.
See you guys again in week 13, the best of luck to all of you, and remember to vote!
