The Final week in our MLB 2nd Half Survivor Pool has completed.
The Final Prize Pool is: 44,716 sats
  • @supercyclone (Yankees 2-4) @Bell_curve (Twins 2-4) @pj (Guardians 3-4) all struck out this week and will not be participating in the tiebreaker. (Technically bell_curve and pj could buy a third strike but they cannot win so no point. PJ's total run differential +30, bell_curve's total run differential +1)
For everyone else the only thing that matters this week is run differential:
The final tiebreaker standings are as follows:
Huge shout out to @Undisciplined for almost completing a miraculous comeback from -18 at one point to having an outside shot on the final day. Also a big shout out to @Turdinthepunchbowl and @wumbo for getting through the pool with 0 strikes. @Undisciplined @wumbo and @Turdinthepunchbowl will each receive 5,000 sats as a bonus payout. (Reply below to get zapped guys)
And the winner of the Prize pool of 44,716 sats is @grayruby! (clearly rigged)
Thanks for playing- See you next season!
What! I was rooting for an @Undisciplined victory!
Can't accept it but congrats @grayruby for stealing your own show! 😜

I was rooting for him too when he started making a comeback.

Nice job going 7-0. Congrats.

Thanks. Week 1 picks post will be up tomorrow. Just wanted to wrap the baseball pool up today so we can focus solely on the big one. 21 participants so far. Perfect number I think.
reply
Thought I had you GrayRuby, thanks for going with the glory pick/8-game week to make it interesting. Congrats.

Rangers schedule was looking promising but go figure they would win a bunch of games by 1 or 2 runs and then wipe it all out with a 7 run loss to Oakland. That's baseball.
Great job going 7-0

Are you ready for some football?
reply
Yes. Congrats on the near miraculous comeback. If you take this momentum into the football pool you may be unstoppable.

I'm counting on the Panthers being completely terrible. At least, that's the strategy I'm leaning towards.

Thanks for playing.

Grandest of Congrats to @grayruby for winning his own pool! This is great example for everyone how to run a pool and go on to win it! Cheers 🥂!
Just kidding!!
But it's funny! Isn't it?
reply
2 in a row. When I win the NFL pool the pitch forks will be out. I might be exiled from town and you and will have to take over.
reply
Didn't know this is 2nd in a row! I'm not sure I'm ready to take over. @IamSINGLE and you won't let me win the ~Music Pool at all. Currently @IamSINGLE is just leading there on BOTJ.
reply
Yes I won the first half MLB survivor pool as well.
You should be in the music pool. It is voted by zaps anyways.
reply
You're proving to be invincible here. I didn't participate in the Cricket pool deliberately because I thought I could easily go on to win that. My prediction abilities are supernatural.
reply
Let's not forget to give a shout-out to @grayruby for intentionally making his road to victory more difficult than it needed to be, in the spirit of sportsmanship.
reply
I figured it would be the most fun outcome. The Red Sox week didn't end up being as wild as I expected with only -5. It was compelling up until the last couple days. @supercyclone finally gets a reprieve from me knocking on his bedroom door at night to update him on all the scores for teams stackers had. Hey, he wanted to join SN to participate in the pool- chalk it up to be careful what you wish for.
reply
BTW 21 confirmed entrants for for the NFL pool. Perfect number.
Waiting on one final buy in but I am sure it will come before picks need to be in.
