Congratulations. I just realized that losing one senior to graduation doesn't mean that I get only one scholarship for next year since we started with only 12 players. Now that most of the good recruits are gone, we'll see what I can do with my remaining scholarship spots.

Damn, you got Kuehne. He's a stud. Boss and I need to start a contest of "who can get the first player above the first two levels"

New messages in the inbox- looks like those got implemented. Except it lists everyone who recruited- not the ones you were going after. Or is that part of it? Still same results for myself and Boss: nothing above level 2. Is this even mathematically possible?

With national #2 Harrenhall losing at San Jose A&T, Northeastern still has a shot at a tie in the Sectoid Conference. Harrenhall will be playing at Blade Bombers, and Northeastern will be at TTDI Rednecked Hicks.

The Spheroids continue to roll on (spheres? rolling on? get it?!?). Talahassee's Marcel Arndt missed a shot at the buzzer as Kansas escaped 65-64 for their eighth win in a row. It was a very streaky conference season as we won 3 in a row to start, then dropped 4 in a row, evened up the record at 5-5 by winning 2 of the next three, and now have won 8 in a row. Non conference play begins next week

Make sure to get non-conference games scheduled. They start Sunday.

Also, in shamelessly looking for votes, top 25 voting is due today. There are 4 teams in the country who are 13-5 and have won 5+ in a row with Kansas being just one. Poughkeepsie, Maryland State, and Allendale also are hot right now.

Cloud Peak got blown out by Erie. I changed things too much in the lineup. Dumb me.

Oh ya, big time score. The recruit is interested

I think we are doing something wrong, didnt match up the right attributes our school offers vs. what the player wants or something.

You're going down tonight!

In other news, I got me another recruit, hurrah that's #2! A big mother of a guy, he is already decent in physical and notable in strength. He will probably start right away as a freshman next season.

Something really messed up with the stats. Somehow Kansas is now only 6-5 and the stats are only dividing by 11 games or something.

Right, I think the non-conference games have completely screwed up the standings. FUNY is 11-7 in the conference and should be 11-8 overall, but right now it's shown as 8-7...

Paging CW.

The records are still messed up and tomorrow is the last non-conference game before, presumably, the tourney.

The Sectoid Conference has different teams showing different numbers of games played. The difference between overall and conference record for NU is correct (three games), but for some of the teams, the record with more games (parenthetical or not) is swapped.

On the plus side, we can't seem to vote for the polls, so maybe it is being worked on.

Oh well. Time to keep shamelessly bumping this thread and eventually CW might see it.

Yes, records are still screwed up and now the season is over so it *should* be tourney time.

Bumping again. Because my record shows as 7-5, I am no longer a tournament team. I should be either a #1 or #2 seed with my real record of 16-6. Not cool.

Problem is- the tourney's supposed to start tomorrow and he hasn't said anything in a couple of weeks since the bug started.

I'm assuming it's been taken down until CW gets sufficiently motivated (and/or enough free time) to fix the records and the tournament.

Edit: But it would be really nice to get an update and confirmation instead of having it just disappear.
