Actually I may vacate a spot for you in C as I may be demoted to D.

i am unconvinced that the good, the bad and the ugly is a prequel

i would agree with you!

second "the good the bad and the ugly" question this season!

Right, was wondering about that.

*phew*

I also guessed "bullish" and thought it was a decent guess, but Thorsten had other ideas.

A string of losses at the end dropped me into the E range for my rookie rundle. Despite hopes to maintain my position in the D range, I couldn't clinch it.

This was such a nice experience. Every morning, I looked forward to checking yesterday's match results, current standings, and puzzling over questions. Even felt a little disappointed when there weren't questions to answer on weekends. Really looking forward to next season.

i had the feeling that i always end up right near the middle of the pack by the end of each season, so i checked and i have a .501 career winning percentage

can't believe I'm crashing into C on account of my 3 forfeits this season, somewhat grumpy with myself

Samesies! Mine is .497.

Based on my performance in the first two-thirds of the season, I thought I was going to have a career-high QPct this season, but I didn't do nearly as well in the final stretch. I gather from the message board that this was not an uncommon experience.

I feel like I got more correct as the season went, terrible beginning better muddle/ending.

Getting promoted to C! One point away from first in my rundle.

I'm really pleased with how I did (as I expected, I solidified my standing and will move to C), especially considering that I stumbled out of the gate. I had the hardest schedule among the top 10 for much of the season (except at the end, where the combined winning percentage of my opponents was under 0.400), though I still had a winning record against players above 0.500 (7-5-3).

absolute belly flop, will pretend this season never happened.

beat the top two finishers, lost to the last-place person. so it goes

last four seasons i've finished 10th, 7th, 9th, 8th

I miss it :(

Same! At least some new ODSes start this weekend.

Anyway, I've submitted my member dues and eagerly await my flag becoming visible.

So the 1DS (1DSes?) start up on the 4h?

Yup. I'm looking forward to the General Knowledge Book Club ML, too. Seems like a neat premise.

Not going to say anything more for a few hours, but there are still two hours left to do the 1DS Cryptic Clues 2.

Going up against A-rundlers is going to be a rude awakening!

Are you in A now?

Haha no way, but my opponent in the book club ML is. His lowest subject CA% is 72%.

I actually have come to find that situation somewhat relaxing, there’s nothing to lose.

Oh, no doubt. Why bother overthinking your defense when they're probably going to 9(6) the match?

I know everyone has different knowledge but the person I was against for day one of General Knowledge Book Club has a 76% get rate in Theater but didn’t get Six Degrees of Separation.

Which seemed easy to me, who has a 54% in Theater and was honestly surprised it was that high.

To be fair, movie trivia is my strongest category but I totally flubbed the Movie Pairs One Day.

That is weird about Six Degrees of Separation.

Turns out I am competing with a Type A today as well.

i am enjoying the GKBook Club stuff so far.

I am enjoying as well

You'd think an English degree would help in this ML but not really! Moby Dick aside, anyway.

After a total whiff on the first day of the MCU ML, I think I'm going to regret registering for that one.

Gave that one a wide berth, not in my wheelhouse.

How's everybody doing in the Book Club? I am in third, I think.

But I have a match coming up on Monday against jaymc's distant relative, so I am a little worried.

Four one days coming due tomorrow, I have yet to peep out
Florida Man (Mon)
Salmon (Mon)
The Art World (Mon)
The French Revolution (Mon)
Maybe I will have a look-see now

not-quite-jaymc has a knowledge profile similar to mine and is in A Rundle, so I will proceed with cation.

Caution, even

Also just registered for School of Rock.

not doing well but really enjoying book club! 3-4-1

Synchronicity continues as I too am 3-4-1.

Anyone need a referral? ‘Tis the off-season.

Instead of Fred Willard I put Bob Odenkirk.

I got my first 9(6) AND 12/12 yesterday!

Anyone need a referral? ‘Tis the off-season.
