I'd guess it also allows time for validations to occur just in case some really close matchup flipped on a DQ.
But don't quote me. If you want to play it safe Justin just don't enter anything for the next three challenges.... ;) |
hahaha well thanks :P

I have a question, do the missing link, natural light portrait, and paper challenges count for the DPL (if you win Round 1)? I'm a bit confused on how the playoff's work.
It says Round 2 begins with challenges announced on the 18th, but the FAQ page didnt mention a break in between round 1 and 2...

Bump - because we have the same thing showing up when we go into the 'League' area. Figure it's just a coding error, but never hurts to find out for sure. :)
SC? Langdon? Any word on this? Thanks.

I ended the season with a far better personal average than I expected, and saw some amazing stuff from my teammates as well.
But next time - PLEASE put us in a different conference from Jason's team, LOL :-) |

Is there a problem with the playoff picture? We are getting to the last day before they start on the second of July. As far as we know.
Just wondering!?!

Well said! Good point! Question: Do the teams "re-seed" for Season "2"? I apologize if this has already been asked and answered. It's not in the DPL FAQ. I checked. Impossible to check all forum threads. Please indulge a stupid person. |

why wouldn't head to head decide it? I mean if you beat a team why should they make the payoffs and you don't if you have the same number of wins |
Because if you and I both have 4-1 records playing against the same oppos, and you beat me head-to-head, then there's someone else I beat that you lost to. In the event of a 3-way tie, even head-to-head may not work anyway.
If they're still doing it the way they did last season (or the last time I helped write the playoff rules anyway), If two teams have the same record the team with the higher season average will prevail, and that seems perfectly rational to me. There were also a bunch of other contingencies in case the season averages were identical, but realistically how often will that happen?

only because he is so focused in a tournament. i have heard when he plays Jordon and other friends (head to head) he talks trash allot. The difference is the trash talk is friendly as I think Doc's was as well. |
I guess you have a point. The comparison I was making is that I am more comfortable with professional golf than with professional football, say, or basketball, because I prefer to see people respecting their opponents. A little friendly trash-talk between people who hoist a beer afterwards is a different order of thing, and sure that's what Doc's doing, I agree.
But in the larger sense, I still deplore the modern tendency towards braggadocio in competition, and I admire champions who maintain their humility as their fame mushrooms.
Still, your point is well-taken: DPC is a community of friends, and probably nobody is taking any of this seriously. So I stand more or less corrected :-)
