2020 NRL FF Eliminator

Tafal made it to R3! (I think I play American in Portugal after they beat Dragoons   )
also, Blackwinx pulled off another upset victory to get to R3 also!

really enjoying this

The week of upsets. i think I counted 24 or 25 lower seeded teams winning

Up against Redneck Yacht Club this week, should be a tough battle
Not sure who that is on here but Good Luck, you will need it

Pretty happy I forgot about my planned trash talking for this.

Also feel better about losing early when I look at all the big names gone this round. Absolute carnage among the top seeds.

I'm playing Reg Reagan Globetrotters but I can't find them in the FOG.
Is that right?

ROUND 2
WRAP UP

As predicted after a shocking TLT the carnage was widespread and very few were spared. Almost all teams had 1-2 of their 18-21 getting a run with some poor bastards only fielding 16. With very few 4 digit scores, getting 1000 pretty much guaranteed the win, with most games being won by a score in the 900's and none below we go without a Bradbury award this week.

I got knocked out really early despite going heaps good last year, so need to make amends

Yeah Nah

This week's winner of the bad beat goes to @Camo123 going down by just 3 points closely followed by @Wildbux & @Teeth Eater both going down by 4.

The carnage also saw the "Fall of the Titans" with a number of big names going down. Last years Eliminator winner @Honey Badger makes an early exit this year as does a number of Top10 seeds @Mulvy, @Milchcow & @FN2187 opening up the competition like never before.

Finally this weeks biggest beat and definitely the unluckiest player of the week goes to @SeattleSuperSonics. His score of 1029 saw him with the unenviable title of the only player to score over 1000 and get beat.

According to the list Booze, that belongs to Stinkbug.

Yep, they changed their name last week to "Cook Island Girls"

Thanks mate.

Thanks for the summary, No Worries. Tough week indeed. I could be wrong, but I think I got done by Rudolf's updates. Pretty sure we were level at the end of the match and Rudolf got 4 add ons? Could be wrong but ouch.

Oh well, guess I'll start training for next year.

This thing still going

I’m up against Holy Moley this week with the winner likely to take on first placed Eagle Stars aren’t we lucky lol......

Nnnoooooooooo looks like updates have killed me overnight, Murray and MoFo down 2 points each.

Looks like I’ve lost by 1 point aaarrrrggghhhhhh

Blackwinx fell 39 points short of another upset, unlucky for him. In other news, I made it through to round 4 !

ROUND 3
WRAP UP

SO ENDS ANOTHER ROUND OF ELIMINATOR ROULETTE.

A pattern seems to be emerging score 1000+ and you're through, score 900+ and there's a good chance your season is done and at the risk of sounding like a broken record more big names go down. The last of the Mods @Filthridden @RandomSil @standard-issue all went down but the biggest shock and upset of the round had to be @EagleStar the top seed going down to @Russ the lowest seeded still in the game with a rank of 192.

This weeks Bradbury with the lowest winning score goes to @The Goat Boys who beat Filth by 10 with a score of 945, winner of the bad beat goes to @Rabbits21 and as he mentioned got done by 1 after updates. The only worse way to go is finish on equal points and lose on count back to the previous weeks score. The last award the biggest beat goes to @Case with his score of 1010 not enough to beat @Kiwi which also gets him an honourable bad beat mention because Kiwi only score 1012.

To those who have made it Round 4 you are at the halfway point and the round of 32. There's only 3 top 10 rank players left and still a number of smokeys with a rank of 130+.

Good luck to all.

Damn 1004 wasnt good enough to get a win!.. disappointed Im out before I even got to play someone who is active on the forum lol

This is a bit of a bug bear of mine too. There's very little banter because half the players are ghosts. For the amount of work it takes I'm considering making it an opt in next year around origin so that only active members are involved. Still undecided.

I was planning to eliminate you down the track
