Gencon 2011 Main Event Fantasy Contest
TO MAKE AN ENTRY, PM BROWNSFAN82. Your entry is not official until Brownsfan82 confirms it.
Hey all, Since the championship has already sold out, I figure we may as well start hashing out who's playing and what their points values should be. We will have prize support. To allow for the grade inflation that naturally happens during the pre-pick discussion, I've raised the points allowed from 70 to 80. Other than that, I've kept the rules the same:
Spoiler Alert!
The main point of having his up right now is to try to get the players list right, and to discuss/refine/trashtalk the points values for the players. Here's what I have right now. I've included everyone in the "who's going" thread, plus anyone else I know for sure is going. Points are carryovers from 2010, or 2009 for those who weren't there in 2010.

I am pretty sure that the first sentence of Dok's post reads:

I'm not 100% sure if he's gonna be in the main event. I'll get back to this thread when I know.
I do know that he's a lot less serious about winning than Kaboomboomboom or I, and probably hasn't played any Heroscape since last summer. |

Re: Gencon 2011 Main Event Fantasy Contest
I'd agree with the changes to wdgrant and Tiny Timmy. Both have excellent tournament skills and were Day 2 participants, as well as regular powerhouses in the local scene. IMHO tom should not be priced the same as Eternalthanos86. One has a looooong history of success and the other a very short one. To be priced the same means one is overpriced or the other is underpriced. I'd hope for the latter.

Re: Gencon 2011 Main Event Fantasy Contest
I'm a good player, as jschild, Deroche, Brownsfan, and NecroBlade can say.
I think I should be worth 10-15 pts, if I can make the points for myself. Again, you can ask jschild, Deroche, Brownsfan and NecroBlade to come up for points for me. |

Re: Gencon 2011 Main Event Fantasy Contest
See I'm not sure the point system will work as well this time. There's no way the army I'm bringing is worth 35 points. I'm taking this reverse the whip thing seriously and if I make day 2 with the army I'm bringing I want to own the house, so my day 1 army isn't going to be near as powerful as it could be. The way I'm looking at it is man if I make day 2 the championship is mine, and if I don't that's totally cool with me anyway because there's a dragon dice event I really want to play in Saturday morning.
And I know a few of the Nebraska Scapers have the same mind set. Also JUSTchris and Raider30 are playing in the main event.

Re: Gencon 2011 Main Event Fantasy Contest
Mega is definitely a good player, only luck never *quite* being on his side keeps him out of the top spot each of our tournaments. jschild needs to be added to the list, and he's also a good player. Deroche deserves to win more, just needs to learn how to read (as you've noticed) . As for me, I guess I'm worth 20 points because I've won a tournament?

Re: Gencon 2011 Main Event Fantasy Contest
That guy who won last year probably raised his stock 5-10 pts.
Drizzt Do'Urden and Guenhwyvar keep on giving. I recommend everyone try Darth Vader's Massivescape suggestions. Last edited by mrkurtb; June 1st, 2011 at 11:53 AM. Reason: Since we're accounting for inflation, I'm going with adding 10 pts. |
