Atlantic Hockey Postseason Pick'em 2013

Re: Atlantic Hockey Postseason Pick'em 2013

Sweeps by the Western teams this weekend. There were a maximum of 16 points available in this round (3 "games" correct plus picking the correct series winner in each of the 4 series.).

RIT Winters led with 14 points.

1 RIT Winters....14
2 RITProf..........13
3 Bing..............12
3 mar7967........12
3 cplinford........12
6 Snively5.........11
6 CornwallAce....11
6 5hole.............11
6 Sons of Vaval..11
6 burgie12.........11
11 AFHockeyFan...10
12 blazer777.........9
12 Patronick.........9
12 komey1...........9
12 TWEET.............9

If I made a mistake (and it is likely I did as I made a lot of changes to the spreadsheet), let me know.
I think I only scored 10. 4 from RoMo, 3 from Hurst, only 1 from Canisius, and 2 from RIT.

You are right. I mistakenly listed Canisius as your pick for series winner even though you called Canisius, bentley, bentley in the series. Thanks for the honestly!

Re: Atlantic Hockey Postseason Pick'em 2013

First let me apologize for my picks coming through in lower case letters. When
I typed them they were all upper case. I don't know what happened.
Not only was my typing poor, so were my choices. By my count I should only
have seven points if I understand your scoring system correctly. I picked
five individual games and two series winners.

Actually, we are both wrong - you should have 8 points. You got 5 individual games correctly, plus two series winners as you stated, but the extra point was from predicting that there wouldn't be a 3rd game in the Army/Mercyhurst Series.
 
Re: Atlantic Hockey Postseason Pick'em 2013

I did some thinking about calling the same team in all 3 games, to see if it makes sense to do, especially when you get a point for correctly predicting no third game.

Calling the same team in all 3 games will give you anywhere from 0 to 2 points.
Team A vs Team B - call A, A, A
0 points: Team B in 2
1 point: Team B in 3 (1 point for the game Team A wins)
2 points: Team A in 2 or 3 games (for Team A's two wins).

Calling a sweep by a team will give you only 1 or 3 points.
Team A vs Team B - Call A, A, no game 3
1 point: Team B in 2 (the point is from the lack of game 3), or Any 3 game series (If B wins in 3, A gets 1 win. If A wins in 3, only one win gets a point because you called no game 3)
3 points: Team A in 2 (you called all 3 games correctly).

Statistically, I am not sure why way makes sense. It is a lot easier to get 2 points out of Scenario 1 than it is to get 3 out of scenario 2 I would think, but last weekend we had 4 sweeps. Pick at your own will!


Edit: I did not include the extra point for choosing the underdog in this case...That would change things a bit.

Re: Atlantic Hockey Postseason Pick'em 2013

Sorry for the delay! Patronick led the week with 16 points. Current standings:

1 Patronick........25
2 AFHockeyFan...24
2 CornwallAce....24
2 cplinford.........24
5 Bing...............23
6 mar7967.........22
7 Snively5.........21
8 RIT Winters.....20
9 Sons of Vaval..17
9 burgie12.........17
9 komey1..........17
12 RITProf...........16
13 blazer777.......15
14 TWEET...........13
15 5hole.............11

Remember, scoring was 1 point for correctly picking the higher seed, 2 points for correctly picking the lower seed, 1 point for correctly picking no game 3 (if applicable), 1 point if you had the winners of game 1 and 2 reversed (only valid in the 3 game series), and 2 points for correctly picking the series winner...

If I made a mistake, please let me know (I need to make scoring less complicated!)
 
Re: Atlantic Hockey Postseason Pick'em 2013

This weekend is a bit easier. 2 points for correctly picking the lower seed to win, 1 points for correctly picking the higher seed to win, with a 3 point bonus for semi final rounds and a 4 point bonus for the final. (So really, Friday's games are 4 or 5 points, and the final is worth 5 or 6).

Semifinals (Friday)
Canisius vs Niagara:
Mercyhurst vs UConn:

Final (Saturday)
Pick the Winner:


Good luck!
