        The quad winners for week 15 with 25 out of 33 points were gochiefs, MavHockey14, MTUHuskyGold, and TalonsUpPuckDown. And with that week winning performance, MTUHuskyGold is now only one point behind mbenecke in the race for the MacNaughton. For the bonus, with the first game ending in a tie and the GWG being scored at the :48 mark of the second period, the average GWG time was (0:65:00 + 0:20:48)/2 = 0:42:54 or 42 minutes when rounded down. Wi.HuskiesFan, SweeneyHawksHockey, klbaum1077, and geezer each came away with 5 bonus points.

        Code:
        Player			Bonus
        Wi.HuskiesFan		5
        SweeneyHawksHockey	5
        klbaum1077		5
        geezer			5
        walktheline		4
        MTUHuskyGold		4
        MTUHuskies		4
        Drumstix		4
        Soulbeaver		3
        Critical Thinker	3
        MSUMaverickFan		1
        Manurespreader		1
        gochiefs		1
        <3_Blizzard		1
        Meanwhile, sonofcrosscjek maintains his hold on the Mason cup.

        Code:
        Player			Pick %
        sonofcrossjcek		0.687
        MavHockey14		0.681
        MTUHuskyGold		0.681
        Stauber1		0.677
        puckdude40		0.677
        mbenecke		0.677
        Scrum Bucket		0.667
        IceKnight81		0.664
        MissThundercat		0.663
        Lastly, I've added a new column to the standings which shows the percentage each player has of making the playoffs based on 100 simulations of each player's picking history this season. Reminder that the top 4 receive a first round bye and places 21-36 will each be in a first round 4-way play-in game. There are six weeks remaining in the regular season and 188 points left.

            The week 16 winner is Miss Thundercat who rode some timely bonus picking and unabashed homerism to her third weekly win, going 21-for-27. BIG WEEK FOR THE BONUS! There were 17 special teams goals this week; nearly three quarters of the field picked up at least 1 bonus point.
            Code:

            Meanwhile, sonofcrosscjek extends his lead for the Mason Cup to two games over MTUHuskyGold and Stauber1.
            Code:
            Player		  Pick %
            sonofcrossjcek	 0.686 
            MTUHuskyGold	 0.679 
            Stauber1	 0.675 
            MavHockey14	 0.673 
            mbenecke	 0.671 
            puckdude40	 0.663 
            MissThundercat	 0.663 
            Scrum Bucket	 0.662
            You may notice some changes at the top of the leaderboard with MTUHuskyGold taking over first place from our long time leader mbenecke in what is becoming a two-way race for the MacNaughton. While all eyes are on the leaders, let's not forget the other end of the standings and the 5-for-2 dogfight for those final playoff spots. Two weeks ago Footballguy51 was 35 points out of the playoffs. Today that number is down to 18. There are 156 points and 5 weeks remaining. Even if the scoreboard shows that you've punched your ticket, the only way to guarantee your spot is to get those picks in!

                Week 17 belongs solely to Soulbeaver who correctly picked the winner of all 8 games this week. There were 238 penalty minutes this week; no one picked up any bonus points. No movement at the top of the standings. No movement in the race for the final playoff spots. No movement in the Mason Cup standings. Not much for me to write about.

                The bonus this week is the total number of penalties called, not the total minutes.

                    • How do you even pick ties? Just leave no selection for that game? Every once in a while, usually for non-con games, I'll see an option for it but most games just display the two teams to select and no third option.

                          Officially for ncaa purposes the game is a tie after the 5 on 5 overtime

                            Conference games cannot end in a tie for conference standing purposes. For NCAA ranking purposes, the game ends after the 5 on 5 OT period.

                            So for the pick 'em, conference games do not have a tie option.
