Scott Tournament of Hearts - 2004
The final standings ...
I updated the points to reflect the bonus playoff points.
Only Aryn and Ray picked
Canada to win so they got 6 points each. Nobody
picked Quebec but Russ and
Mike picked Ontario and rocketed up the
standings with an extra
point each. Rusty earned his way into a tie with
Greg for 23rd overall.
Congrats.
Please get your Brier picks
in ASAP. Winners: I'll send the cheques out after
the Brier.
Thursday Feb. 26th ... 11:59m
... the round robin is complete, the chickens
have hatched, and they are
all there just as B. Diddy counted them a day
or two ago. Since
Jason and Clay both picked Sask as their first overall pick
they will finish in the
same order. Daryl picked Alberta 1st so he won't get
any more points either.
So, it's all over folks! Big Daddy Ackerman wins and
picks up $162 for his efforts!
Clay and Daryl will end up in 2nd and 3rd respectively
and get $81 and $27 for
their showings. ALSO, Slurpy managed to overpower
Mike for last place overall
and since he picked Alberta as his top team he will
not earn any more points.
Therefore, he is the recipient of the 2004 Burrows
Brothers Award for the Scott
and a $10 prize! Congratulations Chopper!
Thanks everyone! Please
get your entry fees to me ASAP if you haven't done
so already. Also,
get your picks in for the Brier pool ASAP... NOTE the deadline
is next Thursday at 1pm
as I am flying out at 6 or 7 that night.
Thursday Feb. 26th ... 6pm ... Draw 16 complete...
Thursday Feb. 26th ... Draw 15 complete... no comment.
Weds Feb. 25th ... 11:50pm
... Draw 14 is in the books. Well, B. Diddy
has held onto the lead going
into the final day of the round robin. Don't
forget about the bonus points
for your top team making it to the final 3.
This could determine the
winner.
I'll send out the Brier choices
soon. If anyone doesn't get the email just
send me your picks anyway.
Also, I'd like some feedback on whether or
not you like the idea of
getting points for how your top team does in the
playoffs and whether or
not 6,3,1 point is too much or too little. Thanks.
Oh ya, if anyone is having
trouble registering on the message board, just
email me and I'll set you
up.
Weds Feb. 25th ... 6pm
Draw 13 complete and we HAVE A NEW
LEADER FOLKS! B. Diddy
Ackerman has overpowered Brian for
the lead. Lets see
if he can hold onto the lead at the end of the day.
Weds Feb. 25th ... 4pm
Draw 12 complete and 13 in progress.
B. Diddy is making a charge
for the top.
Tuesday Feb. 24th, 11:50pm
... draw 11 complete ... with 2 more
Manitoba wins, Hicke is
moving back toward the top. Check below
for who's who...
In no particular order, sorry if I miss anyone:

Hudson Bay Kid

good at these pools.

only 7 points out of 27th place!
Unabomber - Shawn Koester

Clay - ditto.
Feb. 24th, 5:30pm ... draw
10 complete ... Lots of action at the top
of the pack. Some
interesting games tonight that could really affect
the standings. I see
that the elder Burrows brother is settling in
nicely at 23rd place ...
well done Greg, be proud and strong in your
tradition! I see that
your co-workers are pummelling you in the
standings too. I hope
you didn't make that side bet.
I also just realized I haven't
put up a list of who's who. I'll do that
later tonight if I have
time. Also, I'll add Lady Random to the standings
if I have time.
Tues. Feb 24th ... draw 9
is now in the books... and Brian is extending
his lead. I don't
get it.
Feb 23rd ... Draw 8, Draw
9 whatever ... after Tuesday it seems that
Brian is at his usual spot
on top of the standings, followed closely by
Mr. Hicke and Mr. Moskowy.
I've said it before and I'll say it again,...
it's still early folks.
Feb. 22 ... 10:30pm ... draw 4 complete ... still early folks...
Feb 21st, 1:50pm ... the
picks are in. A few notables are missing but I can't
wait forever... Cactus,
the younger Burrows brother won't be in the hunt for
the award that bears his
family name. I also had responses from Nixon and
Grant Cooper but didn't
get their picks. Oh well, the Brier is just around the
corner.
So it appears that we have
28 entries ... a nice size field. So the payout will
be as follows:
- If there is a sole last
place finisher - 1st = $162, 2nd = $81, 3rd = $27,
BB award = $10.
- If there is a tie at last
place and no BB award - 1st = $168, 2nd = $84,
3rd = $28.
Here
is the Excel97 spreadsheet that I use to keep track. As usual, only
change
the wins and losses on the
1st sheet ... all others are updated automatically.
Please let me know if you
find any mistakes.
Good luck to everyone,
chube
