Conquer Club

this is to inform you that iona completed the sweep of colorado state (friesuschrist) by winning game # 10554846.

I think annexator was just out of town for awhile

it appears that the coach for West Virginia has left the building.

I'll check on that...he's been pretty good all year, but pretty much winless...so a couple late forfeits wouldn't effect much.

people people people... quit complaining about how flex works this tourney let him do his work and be happy this tournament is available to play

don't put too much weight on the RPI...it's just one tool used by the selection committee to measure teams. Gives an idea of quality wins and such, but by no means is a cut-off where 1-68 are in and the rest are out of luck.

Flex - I don't think it has any impact, but I was looking at the RPI tab in your excel spreadsheet and Kansas has double the amount of losses that they should have. Just a formula error.

thanks...fixed with the next update

Hell Ya!!! This is an awesome tourney. Thanks so much for running Flex.

North Carolina has finished the regular season and clinched the ACC regular season (the 4th straight year they have won either the ACC regular season or ACC tourney). Hopefully winning the second strongest conference (According to nonconference winning percentage) will result in a bump in the rankings.

(I agree that flex runs the best tournies on CC. The RPI does need to be tweaked so loses against top 25 teams dont hurt so much, I have close to the same amount of total wins as Clemson, have the same amount of Top 25 wins, beat them head to head and won our conference, yet they are a Top 10 team and I am barely in the Top 25. It wouldn't be a big deal except that Top 10 teams receive an extra bonus in the big dance. Having more loses to Top 25 teams only means that they had more loses to non top 25 teams (plus one of my loses was in a game that wasnt on my schedule but still counts against me in the RPI)

Thanks to flex for taking the time to make this a great tourney

With the conference championship on the line I get 2nd turn in all three game 30 games. It's been that kind of season.

this is to inform you that i won game # 10637906, inoa vs. drexel (gilligan).

Nice run dustin...I keep meaning to go back and make some historic records for us (perhaps after this season, I'll make that official), but wow...4 titles in a row...you're a regular Roy Williams.

LSU's basketball team entered tonight's showdown against #7 Tennessee a beaten, down-on-its luck team. A kicked dog. But the Tigers walked out of Pete Maravich Center as heroes after a 76-71 upset of the Volunteers.

"We've struggled this season, there's no doubt about that," LSU interim coach AmphibiousRodent said. "But tonight's performance gives us hope heading into the league tournament, and it will be something to build on for next year."

Tennessee (22-8, 12-4 SEC) led by as much as 10 points in the third quarter (I was down to three territories) before LSU went on a 14-0 run to start the fourth (two rainbow sets). The teams battled back and forth throughout the final frame, with five lead changes and two ties.

LSU (8-22, 5-11) took the lead for good on a Ralston Turner 3-pointer with 32 seconds remaining for LSU's second upset of a top-10 team since AmphibiousRodent took over as interim coach.

Word has it that Rodent is already getting some full-time looks from various teams, notably Fresno State

Ivy league is the toughest league for the second year in a row... one might think they could get 6 or 7 teams in

or so Cornell hopes
and, he may very well be right

Hey VOL,

Why in that second video you posted does it look like someone was watching TV in a mirror? The most obvious thing is Dwight's sweatshirt, but the characters are also writing from right to left instead of left to right. It looks like the image was flipped for some reason.

People flip the images so that when the corps run their programs looking for so called copyright infringement then the videos don't get detected and consequently yanked.

The Hump was ringing with cowbells as the Mississippi State Bulldogs ended the regular season on a high note by defeating #4 Arkansas at home. Although not enough to take the team to the top of the division and add to the team's record SEC titles Coach Dub was all smiles. Dub was feeling pretty down on his team mid season with the only good note seeming to be the team's win over their traditional rivals Ole Miss The Coach was also surprised to see the team make it into the top 25 after what seemed like a series of upsets. The team never lost faith though and moving into the post-season Coach Dub is looking to keep building the energy.

I never really got into The Office for whatever reason, but I'm going to have to give it a look on my Netflix...that was cracking me up VOL. thanks for a hearty

hit a busy season at my work this week...but will be working on a major standings update and getting conference tourneys started here this weekend.

Along with that...any unjoined maps I come across this weekend will be dropped and counted as forfeits, so that we can get fully underway with the postseason tourneys in a timely fashion...so if you have open games, join them now
