Deuce Commissioner Berlage The Bull released his League’s “End of Regular Season Financials” which, among other notables, projected the 2011 weekly skin to be worth $71.17 if there are no more transactions this year. This is a 43.8% increase over last year’s $49.47.

From The Bull.

Fines

Polaq $20
Sooms $5, $2= $7

Slaggers Dues ($.25/pt behind the 2nd highest scoring team= Qonies 1024.07)
MDW- 1062.02……………………..None
Qonies- 1024.07…………………..None
Membrillos 971.08…………………$13.25
Pimps 958.04……………………….$16.51
Catch 931.45……………………….$23.16
Bombers 885.89…………………..$34.55
NOJOQ 885.02…………………….$34.76
Enemy 870.93……………………..$38.29
Sooms 837.09……………………..$46.75
Turds 830.07……………………….$48.50
Polaq 796.05………………………..$57.01
Quahogs 770.57………………….$63.38

The lowest weekly score was Quahogs, Week 8 with 23.55…………………….$20

In the Consolation Tournament those teams finishing 4th, 5th, and 6th will pay $10, $20, $30 respectively (the monies I was referring to in my last email)

All of this money goes into the POT for skins (additional money will be added for any Playoff Transactions or Fines if any)
Current total is $925.16

That makes each skin worth $71.17 at this point.

MDW won 4 skins currently valued at $284.68
Bombers, Qonies, and Pimps each won 3 skins currently valued at $213.51

The available Prize Money in the Playoffs and Consolation Bracket is based upon everyone paying their $200 entry fee and $25 parallel prize fee:
Champion………………….$991.57 (+ $150, $250 or $500 in parallel prize money)
2nd Place………………….$535.51
3rd Place…………………..$327.30
4th Place…………………..$247.84
5th Place…………………..$20 paid by the 6th place finisher
6th Place…………………..-$20 paid to the 5th place finisher
Consolation Champion $148.79

This serves as my working numbers right now. Again, new fines and transaction fees will change the skins payout.

Funny to note that while Brian had a rough year at the bottom of rankings and points scored he’s “spent” $4 less than Rob (NOJOQ), the overall 5 seed. If he wins the Consolation Bracket and Rob loses in the 1st round of the playoffs he could outearn Rob by over $170 for the season.

Also, while Catch didn’t spike a score to capture a skin, he spent only $7 in transaction fees and was never fined. Nevertheless he is the overall #2 seed and managed to place 5th in overall points scored. There is always luck involved but this looks to be one of the few examples of fiscal conservatism being repaid. With a 1st round bye, Catch is guaranteed at least the 4th place prize of $247.84. Without further transactions or fines he will at worst have to scratch a $9 check.

Keith (sickening) is guaranteed at least $247.84 + the skins of $284.68 (less his $225 payment and $32 in fees and fines) is already UP over $270. All gravy from here for Keith.

Food for thought.

Good luck everybody….except Rob.
