And did some analytics on our record. All time record. Sharing is caring.

One of those wins is a forfeit

On every other map we have boths wins and losses or have only played once.
My takeaways:
I've heard some people say how much we rock Payload. Well, here's the proof. Luckily it's the most common game type as well. My opinion of why we rock it is because it gives us a clear objective. We have the individual talent, it's the strategy we often lack. Payload forces us to a central point. Maybe.
What happened last season? All the trends point to us actually being a decent team, with the exception of last season. I think a lot was in flux last season. Our first season everyone had a gig and stuck to it. Then we had people quit and/or go AWOL, so last season there was a lot of transition. This year has been like our first season, everyone's had a gig and not only stuck to it, but we've had awesome attendance rates from our starting 9. Subs have done a FANTASTIC job filling in admirably as well, and we have diverse subs so no one's had to play a class they're flat out awful at.
We're good against good teams. 7-2 all time against teams that are at or above .500 at the time we played them (this does NOT include games against 0-0 teams, the first game of the season). The flip side of that is...
We're bad against bad teams. Of our 2 losses this year, one of those teams that beat us is currently 2-4.
Finally... we're currently in 17th place. As I understand it, the top 16 teams make playoffs, the next 16 make the consolation playoffs. Which means we'd be the first team out of the playoffs and the #1 seed in the consolation playoffs. Since you play a team with the number of wins as you every week, half the teams above us are about to lose. This means we control our own fate from here on out. 5-3 is a maybe for the main playoffs, 6-2 means we're in for sure. We've known this all season though. At the moment, finishing 4-4 would get us into the consolation playoffs.
Yeah... it's a slow day at work. And I'm one of those people that thinks stats are fun.
