Re: ECAC Pick the Standings 2019-2020
The "predictability" of the conference really amounts to the fact that there are only 2 teams between .333 and .607.
Last season there were 7.
The league has bifurcated. Perhaps it will melt back together during the second half.Cornell University

Re: ECAC Pick the Standings 2019-2020
After a few weeks of lurking, sgt12 has once again reclaimed the top spot as we enter February. Also the seven-way tie fell apart, but we do have a five-way for 13th.

Re: ECAC Pick the Standings 2019-2020
We're so good at this. sgt12 maintains their lead with a historically low score and the Fan Average sits not too far behind!

Re: ECAC Pick the Standings 2019-2020
Well uhh, this is weird. Despite 12 games being played, the standings did not move at all. As such, nothing changed in our little contest. sgt12 remains atop the standings, the RNG remains at the bottom, and we can just forget this weekend even happened.Code:Rk Post# Contestant Raw 1 37 sgt12 10 2 38 apple2k 28 3 9 iowabasedtraveler 30 34 Rainman 30 51 The Fan Average 30 6 12 Go Puckman 32 13 Patronick 32 8 6 Ralph Baer 34 9 8 techtodenver 36 14 Turk 36 11 35 bothman 40 12 19 GoldenBear 48 31 slumulva 48 32 still an empty net 48 43 DrDemento+JennyRN 48 16 2 The Media 50 18 cudmud 50 25 TalonsUpPuckDown 50 19 7 drshoen 52 27 GreenBear 52 21 39 red133883 54 47 SnowDogFlyer 54 23 5 allnightwong 56 15 ecachawkeyfan 56 25 41 sshablak 58 48 NPC19850330 58 27 26 Saints#1 60 33 Mike Hutter 60 29 2 The Coaches 62 23 fr. joe 62 44 johnk 62 32 4 sezenack 64 33 30 lugnut92 68 34 3 CLKHockey 72 11 kdiff77 72 36 17 goldenbriggsy 76 42 BIG Green 76 38 24 Bronco Hockey Fan 78 39 2 Dr. Last Year 80 16 Dutchman 80 41 22 TchrBill 88 50 TBRW 88 43 40 Rjm7272 94 44 29 ColSkate65 108 45 20 Earl_Leatherland 110 46 2 The Random Number 264 -- 50 -- 62

Re: ECAC Pick the Standings 2019-2020
I mentioned that last week was weird because there was no change in the standings, but I have to say that this is even weirder, because The Fan Average has nudged past sgt12 to take over the top spot with just one weekend left to play. Finally, the wisdom of the masses has asserted itself and we're set to have a 2006 Time Person of the Year-type event where every single one of us can claim victory. What a time to be alive.

Re: ECAC Pick the Standings 2019-2020
The final results are in and this year's winner is........ Go Puckman! He just edged out Ralph and the Fan Average to take the #1 spot with the best final score in the history of this contest. In fact, the top five contestants this year would match or beat the previous best winning score (jmhusker, 24, 2015-16). As expected, the Random Number generator put up the worst score by a huge margin, though still only a middle-of-the-road worst score historically. Our worst human poster ColSkate65 had far and away the best worst score ever, and even finished better than two of our past winners.

Re: ECAC Pick the Standings 2019-2020
Let's go a little more in-depth. Obviously congrats again to Go Puckman, who didn't miss any team by more than two spots and nailed 5 teams. This is going to get repetitive, but we all did extremely well this year. Our worst poster (ColSkate65) this year would have beaten half of the field last year, which was already a pretty good year. Last year's winner didn't compete for reasons, but last year's loser (me), improved significantly for no discernable reason (*cough* it's because RPI didn't cost me 100 points *cough*).
Given that all of our scores were very good and the Fan Average finished so close to the top, it should come as no surprise we came pretty close on pretty much every team. More than half of us pegged Cornell and SLU for first and last, respectively, with the former costing us less than a point on average. Further, there were seven more teams that cost us less than 4 points on average. The only real shocker of the bunch was RPI, who no one picked correctly and cost us about 19 points on average. You could interpret all of this as the league being very predictable, but I choose to read it as us all being very smart.

lugnut, I'm not a math wizard so don't have the foggiest about your "diagrams." But I believe this is the 3rd year out of the last 4 that I've come in last. At least I'm consistent :-( Thanks for doing the contest again!COLGATE HOCKEY:"Is this the year?"
