TS...
Coinciding withweek 2 of Supercoach Finals in round 21 the League vs League competition Semi Finals saw Meat Pies defeat Top Score and the Platinum League defeat Seriously Fun! So what we started with a roll call of the top leagues as at round 17 nears it's conclusion for another year, the hysteria of GF week commences and the engravers get ready to insert a new league name underneath the NBA Crew's entry as 2011 League vs League Champions.

FROM THE WINNERS CAMPS (IN ORDER OF THEIR ROUND 21 SCORE)



Donors Meat Pies 43176 (43689 in round 20, 44285 in round 19)

<ul>

<li>For the third week in succession the Meat Pies scored the highest aggregate score for the round. They narrowly missed smashing the all-time winning margin record for the third consecutive week (they have the top 3 margins by a long way) and have demonstrated that they not only want to WIN the comp but to annihilate any league who dares to stands in their way.
</li>
<li>Their 3 best this week were That'swattsshesaid (2611), Snotties (2601) and Team stripey (2563). The bottom 2 in their league on overall points smashed scores of 2300 plus (2346 by Fleagles and 2438 by Fanspastics) so once again they have no weak links going into the grand final.
</li>
<li>Team Stripey and That'sWattsshesaid received their 2nd mention in the top 3 and wil most likely vie for the Meat Pies League vs League MVP this year, both said to be fired up to produce another massive effort when it counts most (kind of like the anti Leon Davis !)
</li>...
In Round 17 we called for nominations for this comp and in Round 18 we saw the kings dethroned as the 2011 Champions NBA Crew lost to the until-now unheralded UCantBeTS league in a standalone Repechage/Playoff Match !



Box Score
# 113 UCantBe TS 44325 (TSKantha 2692, Alinatrons 2674, Dartmoor Demons 2628) defeated #118 NBA Crew 43899 (Steve 2697, Minis 2623, LiquidSixx 2619) by 426 points

Hi all,
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>If you're in a smoking TS league at the moment, best let us know because we are looking to start the draw for the knockout rounds of the competition.
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>Can you make the Pinewarmers warm the Pine once again? &#160; If so, get your entry in. &#160;If we get enough entries below the lines, we may also do Minor Premierships (and the most Minor for those leagues ranked in 37+) &#160;for those leagues that have saved up all their arsenal for the finals and kept their powder dry. &#160; It could be the only thing that Group W wins all season, so I think that is worth undertaking.
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>Leagues that I would want an update from specifically would be: the Platinum League (or are they too afraid to show their face around here) and TS Game On, who I'd think should be in the running. &#160;I do believe there is a TS Ladies League running, which would also be good to hear from. &#160; In all of this, it's not a slight on individuals if your league is tanking. &#160;There are plenty of great leagues out there with one dominant team who will no doubt get their comeuppance in the finals.
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>At the moment it appears that there are entries that are almost tied in terms of overall, it's that close between entries 133 to 141. &#160;2059 average for each league, which means 2 make the comp and 2 miss out!
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>Here are the current entries, and their slots in the pecking order:
<br/>
<br/>
<br/>#18 TS Donors Meat Pies 2096 avg
#43 TS HARD YAKKA avg 2082
# 56 TS Premier League (Avg 2,077)
#65 TS Money Men (2075)
#70 – TS Diamond League – 2,074
#82 – TS Serious Club – 2071
#90 [TS]TooSeriousGOLD avg 2069
# 93 #TSTwits (Avg 2,068)
<br/>
<br/>
<br/># 94 TS SA Great = 2068 avg
#113 UCantBe TS &#160;(2064)
# 115 TS HAWKS = 2063 avg

Hi all, just posting on a message from TTH (The Tassie Hawk). &#160;All comments are from TTH, apart from in brackets where I couldn't resist...



2012 League vs. League Comp – The Round 18 Playoff&#160;



It’s that time of year when some of us are struggling and completely fed up with Supercoach, Ross Lyin’ et al and for others the year is starting to get exciting. &#160; (And that's with Jacobs playing most weeks...sigh)



It’s also the time of year that the League vs. League Challenge is set to start. Make no mistake this is a coveted title, not quite up with Olympic Gold but give it time as it is only in its second year.



In Round 18 we have a standalone match – as the DEFENDING CHAMPS – the NBA Crew – have exercised the right to challenge the 16th ranked league – Ucant Be TS for the final spot in the main draw which commences next week.



Match Preview over the break...



&#160;



<!--more-->
The NBA Crew are a passionate – some would say obsessive – bunch of fantasy sport nuts, be sure that if you start up or promote a fantasy sport comp hereon TS a few of them will probably join – they include Anthak, Underachievers, Owen, Stowie, Steve etc (add as many others as you want) – a distinguished crew indeed !!



The Champs have been gloating all year about how they want to go back to back. It’s worth reminding everyone that this was the championship that almost didn’t happen after narrowly defeating the Premier League by 79pts and Donor Kebabs (TS’s best ranked league in 2011) by 126pts in the early rounds last year they then went about annihilating (I almost said decimating but have been well educated by Chels in recent times) the Superleague and Tin-Lids by over 1200 each in the Semis and Grand Final, thus adding their names collectively to the esteemed honour roll of TS high achievers.



After placing in the top 100 leagues overall through to round 10 in 2012 they have slid back to #118 after Round 17...
Round 22 saw the second annual League vs League Grand Final with Meat Pies victorious by 349 points over the gallant Platinum League, and they now join the NBA crew on the TS League vs League Champion Honourboard!

East-West...
Hi all - first post in a while, and it's to bring your attention to what was a brilliant competition from last season - the League vs League knockout championships.



If you've got a TooSerious League, we want to know where you are in the rankings, so we can enjoy this competition and to cheer everyone on through the



I'll give you the basics here, then over the break, you can read a more detailed statement from our good mate The Tassie Hawk!

<ul>

<li>League vs League will be 16 teams from round 19 to 22 knockout.
</li>
<li>Yes, that's right, round 22, so we don't lose this competition in the wake of all the other grand finals
</li>
<li>We need current league rankings and the league average scores provided to confirm a league entry in the competition
</li>
<li>Higher ranked teams will get a seeded ranking - 1 v 16 - but with a twist. &#160;Because likely league 1 burned and league 16 saved trades, we will give a small advantage to better leagues - in line with their current league performance averages. &#160;It just means if the General badly strikes these leagues, they have a little more security (and because many great leagues were turfed last year by lurker leagues haha!)
</li>

Hey Folks



Last year we held a knockout competition for the top 16 TooSerious Leagues as at Round 17 (based on the aggregate round score for each league) during the 2011 Supercoach finals.
=>>&#160;http://tooserious.net/league-vs-leagues-the-tooserious-by-half-challenge



The NBA Crew (ranked 9th of the 16 TS leagues) overcame the TinLids (ranked 7th) by 1220 points (37412 to 36192) in the 2011 Grand Final.



We are running this again in 2012 – starting in Rd19 and finishing in Rd22...
Westside Hardcore (8-6) 1398 v Ant hak (7-7) 1348



This match was crucial to both teams as the winner had the inside running to a potential finals spot. Westside was able to claim a good win considering they played 3 less games than Anthak. The leading scorers for Westside were Gallinari (154/4), Drummond (146/4) and Aldridge (142/3). The best players for Anthak were LBJ (166/3), Thompson (145/3) and Chandler (135/3). It now looks like Anthak might need to win his last 2 games to make the finals.


King of Karlos (9-5) 1291 v Run TMC (5-8-1) 1102



Karlos was able to wrap a finals spot with a comfortable victory over Run TMC. Karlos played an extra 8 games which certainly did help with the overall result. The leading scorers for Karlos were Deng (203/4), Clark (147/4) and Al Jefferson (141/4). For Run TMC, Pau Gasol led the way with (156/4), followed by Bledsoe (146/3) and Gay (139/3).

Ruddy's Cavaliers (8-6) 1170 v Fudge's Sixers (2-12) 1086



Ruddy got another much needed win over Fudge this round and it now looks like he will probably need to win one more game to make the finals. Monroe (159/4) was the best player for Ruddy followed by Durant (113/2) and Brook Lopez (111/3). The best players for Fudge this round were Lawson (153/3) , Pierce (123/3) and Knight (122/4).

Adelaide Maggotz (5-8-1) 1229 v Wade Machine (6-8) 1219



This was the closest match in the Premier League this round with the Maggotz coming from behind in the very last game to beat Wade Machine. The Maggotz played 5 more games this round and were led by DeRozan (164/4), Harden (160/3) and Okafor (135/4). For Wade Machine, the best players were Butler (159/4), Young (156/3) and Evans (156/4).

Jasmine's Mob (12-2) 1555 v The Jug O Naughts (8-6) 1136



Once again you know who scored the highest score in the Premier League and was able to post a comfortable win over Fez. It now looks like...
<p style='font: inherit;]I've just rolled TS over into the 2013 season. <p style='font: inherit;] <p style='font: inherit;]Head on over to the stats page to check it all out. <p style='font: inherit;] <p style='font: inherit;]Don't forget though, you can go back to the 2012 season to view all those juicy statistics.
Personally, my&#160;favourites&#160;are the pre/post 12 averages and the Games/Percentage over 100.
Check it out, there are probably bugs hidden in there somewhere, but hey- many eyes make short work or something like that.
