Well I just made these groups up based on some past results. We will see where it ends up in a few seasons after people move up+down and etc. I played round 1 against everyone once already but didn't do so well, so am a bit scared

Also everyone should make their challenges right away. You don't even have to play the round, just make the challenge to get things rolling.

I'd be shocked if I win a game.

no offense to those who don't play as much from the other tourney, but it's nice to have constant games going (especially for someone with as much free time as i have, live poker lol). i just ran out of tokens for the first time in forever

Only thing I dont like about the league spreadsheet and tracking is no where to put points scored which I think is something we all would like to see...

Also, I just entered my first game and I won the first round but lost the next 2 BUT I won the game 2436 to 2340 and we both get the same amount of points on the standings page??? Maybe its just a glitch but that would be like getting equal points after a hockey game after a win but you got outscored in 2 periods?

edited to add:

Definitely a glitch somewhere, I just changed it from 3-2 to 4-1 and 5-0 and the scoring on standings page never changed

You get 3 points. 2 points for winning the match. 1 point for winning the first round. Your opponent gets 2 points for winning the last two rounds.

I'm looking at the sheet now and it looks like there might be some kind of problem with the sheet.

Also, we are all using 2 powerups right?

[Gary Stevenson]

< using 2 PU...wish i could say i used zero against you in that first game

Yea I got the score but seemed odd because there is a scoring page that gives scoring and we both got the same no matter what score I entered...

and yes 2 power ups max, even when Zynga is whoring for more.

Will fix it, in my tests there weren't any problems but obv something is off. Gimme a bit!

OK I fixed it! My bad, was only an issue with Group 3. Does anyone know btw how to make them automatically sort by a column. I'd like the standings to sort automatically from top to bottom in column D.

[curtains]

Also spellings were wrong for two players in group 3.

It's MainelySane and cfranklin158. I have updated the spreadsheet to reflect this.

[Gary Stevenson]

so we're not recording pts/round, pts/gm, or words/round, just the 5pt scores, right?
