It was a I don't follow CHL very closely and I am just guessing right now kind of response.

[GirlySports]

Yeah right.. says the Quebec runner-up.

CofR knows nothing either, he's just talkin'

[Hockey]

He's just mad i beat him at fantasy football last week.

[GirlySports]

deadline has passed, games starting soon.. everyone sent except PlayfulGenius so he's out and ineedanother in in the semis.

So 2 quarterfinals only.

Aeneas vs 3thirty has 8 differences

Hockey vs CofR has 6 differences

So it could get complex and go into tiebreakers if the differences are split.

Here's the chart.



Good luck

[CofR]

Hey Hockey, let's make a friendly wager. If you beat me, I'll change my sig to "Go Canucks Go" for a week. If I win, you put "Go Flames Go"

Well, I sent the list anyway. I didn't look at any games, I had no idea the WHL started already but I'll leave it up to you, no biggie.

I assumed it coincided with the start of the NHL season, so I didn't pay much attention

[PlayfulGenius]

Hey, I just checked on the WHL website, one game is 10 minutes in, so the game would not have started when I sent in my picks.

EDIT : oops, one game had the 1st just finish, so it would have started, but taht game is tied 1-1, so even if I did look, it wouldn't have helped by picking (though, I didn't look as I didn't even know there was anything to look for).

[GirlySports]

OK, I'll let you in since we're scarce and I'm nice!

and having byes and forfeits are no fun

Don't be late again :P

[GirlySports]

ineedanother and PlayfulGenius have 4 differences

[GirlySports]

first blood to 3thirty and CofR
not only did they get moose jaw correct, they got the margin correct too (MA2: Moose Jaw 1) as the Warriors beat the Wheat Kings 4-3

[GirlySports]

After the first night

Quarter Finals

Games Counted: 6
Games Remaining: 9

00:00 | Drake vs BYE
04:06 | Aeneas vs 3thirty #MA: 1-1
05:05 | Hockey vs CofR #MA: 2-1
05:03 | ineedanother vs PlayfulGenius #MA: 1-2

3thirty and ineedanother with a healthy lead.

Aeneas still has 6 differences left, he needs to win 5 or 6 of them to advance, 4 out of 6, he'll need some help with MAs.

The Hockey/CofR grudge match is even at 5-5. Hockey has the MA advantage 2 to 1 plus he got MA1 right.

PlayfulGenius is in the most trouble. Even though he got the Sask game perfectly (4-3), he is 2 down with only 2 differences left. He does have the MA advantage and MA1 so if both Medicine Hat and Vancouver to win tomorrow he'll probably advance.

[3thirty]

6/6 picking the winner last night, hopefully I can keep it going today!

[GirlySports]

Quarter Finals

Games Counted: 15
Games Remaining: 0

Winners in red

00:00 | Drake vs BYE
05:11 | Aeneas vs 3thirty #MA: 2-2
08:10 | Hockey vs CofR #MA: 3-4
12:08 | ineedanother vs PlayfulGenius #MA: 4-3

12 out of 15 was a great score from ineedanother.
And CofR gets his revenge getting 10 correct and more importantly 4 out of the 6 differences.


Semi Finals

Games Counted: 0
Games Remaining: 9

00:00 | Drake vs 3thirty
00:00 | CofR vs ineedanother

If you can't send for the final on Saturday, you can send for both now. If you don't make the final, those picks will be discarded.

Looks like I got hustled by CofR. So does this mean I have to put Go Flames Go in my sig now?

[CofR]

Yep, just for a week... you can also say in it that you lost a bet here and that's why you're doing it... Hopefully that will stir up a bit more interest in this

Thanks

[GirlySports]

This could be an ongoing grudge match, this won't be the last time you play each other
