It kills me to make this pick and I can't win anyway:

Yankees in 6

You're already out of the game with only 12 points remaining. Are you picking it to announce your favourite to win? I've also picked the same.

Siggy is no quitter. He fights until the end, even when defeat is certain.

135 sats \ 14 replies \ @Coinsreporter 22 Oct

Yupp! That's true. It'd be better if we had more than four players who are still living. But the fight has just come down to between @BlokchainB 24, points @Undisciplined, @DTom 20 points, me at 19 points, @supercyclone 17 points

It's easier for @BlokchainB he just requires his pick wins. Whereas I and @supercyclone will need a victory with bonus points and also it depends on others.

The only sure defeat for me would be making the same pick as BlockchainB, so I need to wait and let him take the best option.

50 sats \ 5 replies \ @grayruby OP 22 Oct

You could pick the same team as long as you don't pick the same amount of games as him. I don't recall if we have a tiebreaker. Might have been an oversight by me.

That's fine. This is my final entry. No matters what others do I want Dodgers to lose. They have given me and siggy a heartbreak.

30 sats \ 3 replies \ @Undisciplined 22 Oct

Exactly, but I need to see what he does before I can pick. Of course, he might have a similar thought and be waiting to see what we do.

BTW. I sent you 4700 sats over fountain. That's the remaining sats I owed you from last weeks pod and the split from this week.

My only (really long) chance of winning is if you and @BlokchainB both go the same way and get it wrong, so I'm trying to wait all of you out in a game of chicken here.

I'm not against 'winner takes all' but I like at least top three should be the winners.

My first zap failed. I don't know if it's you or me.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @siggy47 22 Oct

Exactly. I have lots of practice.

40 sats \ 1 reply \ @siggy47 22 Oct

I don't know. I'm confused and bitter about the Mets.

94 sats \ 0 replies \ @Coinsreporter 22 Oct

Yes, it was a tough pill to swallow. If they had won, I would have also won this challenge. I'll still go with NY's team. I've a strong feeling Dodgers are gonna make it very difficult for Yankees but ultimately Yankees will lead to glory. Fingers crossed.

You can't win but you can still improve your standing. Moral victories.

Dodgers in 7

22 sats \ 1 reply \ @grayruby OP 25 Oct

Thought you might forget in your effort to wait everyone else out. This is also my prediction so you are assured defeat. Haha

40 sats \ 0 replies \ @Undisciplined 25 Oct

I would have preferred Dodgers in 6, but it is what it is.

20 sats \ 1 reply \ @kepford 22 Oct

Dodgers in 6. Should have posted my NLCS prediction because I was right about it.

48 sats \ 0 replies \ @grayruby OP 22 Oct

No one has picked Dodgers in 6 yet so at least you will have bragging rights for being first if it is corret.

20 sats \ 2 replies \ @kepford 22 Oct

Is this open to anyone?

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @grayruby OP 22 Oct

Yes but this is the final of 4 rounds so it’s not possible for a new entrant to win as the leader has 24 points and the most you can score in the World Series is 12 points. But if you want to submit a pick for fun and bragging rights, have at it.

Got it. Thanks

Yankees in 4, why not....

21 sats \ 1 reply \ @grayruby OP 22 Oct

Ok but you didn't play the first 3 rounds so it is not possible for you to win as the leader has 24 points and you at most could get 12 so all you are playing for is bragging rights.
