After an excruciating amount of time (don't they just read my posts?), USAV has confirmed my analysis and predictions made before FAR WEST by awarding the three 17Open At-Large bids to the Cincinnati Classics, Texas AVA, and Long Beach.
Although suffering the "slings and arrows" of detractors (COLO1) of my system, I will now begin my
in-depth analysis of the 17Open field at JOs and start posting my keen insight this week....unless I decide to open a pay-to-view website |

Congratulations to Long Beach 17M for sure! That's quite a few teams from the SCVA region. I'm not quite sure if they have beaten every 17s team..
It's difficult to do that when you don't play some of them.. Have they played SG Elite 17Roshambo? I'm not quite sure about that

every missing match result or figuring out what team did they mean when they misspelled the team code or name.

I spent 60% of my time trying to find corrections to team names or codes because the person reporting didn't do their job or was given bad information. The most frequently found error? Clubs sending a lower level team in place of a higher level team to a tournament without correcting the name or team code. What looks like a good win against a strong team ends up being a win against a weaker team. Of course, a team will report that they beat "so-and-so's" #1 team when they really beat the #2 or 3 team. Of course, Open teams do not run into this because they are playing the better teams, but club division teams... |
