Lies :P

The only real difference I could spot between them was the fact that one's opponent went 3-11, and the other went 4-5. Based on that I think this one is clearcut, and there is nothing here that justifies an overturn (unless of course, we want to argue that Sznajder deserves the 3)

are you serious? 4-5 was agaisnt my 9k backup C since he didnt even get any shots off in the first half. only 1 guy was scoring - sznajder and he was shooting like 39% until he came up against my scrubs. so blocks and still dont matter? if he played lower minutes which is 3 mins less, why do you give him so much credit for defense then since my PF who play 21 mins would also get a lot of credit for that. 3 more assist 2 more TO also 2 steals as well. also shumkovski beat his man at boards and cause him to TO 5 times.

I have been meaning to appeal just that I wrote that I didnt have the time to do so.

rules are rules :)

Man i love the fishbowl PL, you even have a way of disputing mvp votes without getting kicked out of the league!

hahaha nice :D

(unless of course, we want to argue that Sznajder deserves the 3)

if you want to argue that mllama i wont stop you

but I have already launched an appeal earlier just that the hearing was delayed.

I think the point is, that you can argue both ways on this one, its merely a difference of opinion. I see the appeals system as being in place to remove obvious howlers, not decisions that could really go either way, and I don't see this one as being overturnable really.

I can assure everyone that I don't sit down in front of the viewer and watch the entire match as it unfolds. I look at the box score. In close matches I usually look at the last few minutes of the play by play. If something important like an ejection or injury happened I will look at that. Then I make my decisions. Probably 10 minutes a match maximum. If anyone is prepared to spend longer then let me know. I agree with tremell and mllama, the appeals will give everyone a chance to overturn in a fair and friendly way really bad decisions we make becuase we missed something obvious, but they are not for splitting hairs one guy had 7 rebounds 6 assists and the other 6 rebounds and 7 assists we will not be changing anything.

agreed

Allright here comes my second appeal this season as I feel the MVP voting is completely wrong in my game. Here is the match report as it stands:

Monkey Business vs. Chelsea Seagulls 98 - 78

3 Yakir Elbaz Monkey Business 28 PTS 9 REB. There was a shootout between the SFs in this match and while the scores were even Yakir came away with the victory.

2 Rober Forbes Chelsea Seagulls 28 PTS 6 REB. While normal stars Oliver (2-14) and Jared (3-14) couldn't buy a basket Rober was the one effective Seagull. He was interviewed after the game but no-one could understand what he was saying.

1 Zoltán Bui Monkey Business 18 PTS 13.5 rating. With Monkey Business having their trademark "everyone performs at about the same level" (TM) results Bui stands out purely due to a few extra points and a fair FG%.

The reason I believe it is inaccurate is because it is a blowout. The game was done by the 3rd and my bench played his starters in the 4th. Hence, I believe stats should be looked at at the end of 3rd quarter rather than the stats at the end of the game. Here is what I believe is wrong with it:

3 points: Yakir Elbaz played a majority of the game with 46 minutes. Despite the shootout in the 4th, He was only on 13 points at the end of the 3rd. I don't believe he is worthy on all 3 points.

2 points:Rober Forbes. Forbes scored 15 points in the 4th quarter against my scrubs. My backup SG (deltell) was marking him at SF in a M2M defense in the 4th. You can't be valuable in garbage time no matter what stats you put up against scrubs.

1 point: Zoltán Bui. Clearly the best player at the end of the 3rd quarter. The fact that it was a blowout means he only played 31 minutes for the game as he wasn't needed in the 4th.

Therefore, I believe that Bui should get 3 points, Elbaz get 2 and Forbes get 1 for a consolation prize.

Anyone agree?
