Actually pindicator knocked you out of the playoffs by losing. You would be eighth seed if he had won.

Yes, this is seriously true. Let's recap this mess.

Cheater Hater and Boldly both lost (Kuro out-scored the two of them combined!), Kuro won, and my comment on Pindicator here was wrong - he merely needed to finish ahead of the loser in points-for.
It gets better, or maybe worse depending on your perspective.
Wetbandit beat Pindicator by 24 points, but 18.8 of them came on that ridiculous hail mary where he doubled up on getting QB + WR points with 0 seconds left on the clock. That means with two plays (that one and any other rushing/receiving TD) would total 24.8 points, Wetbandit got into the playoffs (without it being at Pindicator's expense) AND eliminated Kuro from the playoffs.
It gets better/worse.
Pindicator could have won (and got Kuro in and Wetbandit out) anyway. When you consider the fact that Pindicator had a RB and WR on his bench combine for 31.5 points while he got 6.1 points out of his RB/Flex positions... ouch. Glancing at recent weeks, I think he probably started the right guys and just got unlucky, but Kuro is the one paying for those decisions. Fantasy football is cruel.

That Jarvis Landry dud was the biggest surprise of the week for me -- top 10 WR with 6.6 as his lowest total all year, until then he lays that 0.5 egg.
That was a fun weekend, everything came down to the last two minutes of that MNF game where I was yelling "Don't throw it to Witten!" Thankfully my roommate also plays fantasy football, so I didn't have to explain myself

Wow, that's crazy. ![lol lol](https://www.realmsbeyond.net/forums/images/smilies/lol.gif) How did I get even remotely close when my team was so crummy all year? It was pretty fun watching last week and paying attention to everyone's scores once I realized it was looking remotely possible, though. Dangit though, Pindicator, why couldn't you have done better!
Landry messed me over in like 2 other Leagues too, tho fortunately one of them will probably reach the playoffs either, but thato ne also has rather weak WR corps.
EDIT: Also, just wanna point out, if I scored 0.4 points the week before that, I'd be in too. Is this what happens when 3 people with losing records get in the playoffs?
EDIT 2: Also, this is the first time I've missed the playoffs with you guys...I'll get you next time, Gadget!

I did a quick check of your box score in that game, and by my math if we were still using whole numbers this year for scoring, that game would have tied 104-104.

Would I still get in with a tie, though?

Really can't handle another week of Demarco Murray disappointing me, and I lack another viable option so... Gonna YOLO this and grab some Denver RB I've never heard of. My annual late season meltdown already started two weeks ago anyway, so what's the worst that could happen?

I am in four leagues. Thomas Rawls was a starter in three of them

Noble's trying to convince me OBJ isn't going to eat my team alive in the 2nd half. I'm not buying it
But it's still fun to have this one so down-to-the-wire!
Edit: Well, it was close... lol
