MB Playoff Roundup – May 17
Posted: May 17, 2013 Filed under: MB 2013 | Tags: MB Playoffs Leave a comment »MB Playoffs – Round 2
Only 2 days remain in Round 2 as it comes to a close on Saturday. With busy days today & tomorrow and 4 head-to-head events (D-III Men’s Golf, D-II & D-III Women’s Golf & the Preakness Stakes) all 4 quarterfinals are still up for grabs. All 4 consolation quarterfinals are foregone conclusions at this point.
Notes:
- D-III Men’s & Women’s Golf conclude today; D-II Women’s Golf ends and the Preakness Stakes is run on Saturday
- There are 96 points available and 112 possible today
- Saturday is a big ticket day with 468 points available and another 176 possible
- The two-day points remaining total is 564 definitely available and other 288 possible, meaning even in the matchups where there is currently a large disparity, the door is still open for comebacks

With busy days coming today, tomorrow & Saturday and 4 head-to-head events (D-III Men’s Golf, D-II & D-III Women’s Golf & the Preakness Stakes) all 4 quarterfinals are still up for grabs. All 4 consolation quarterfinals are foregone conclusions at this point.
Notes from Round 2:
- The D-III Men’s Golf tournament involved a cut after yesterday’s 2nd round which will take some of the drama out of one of the tight matchups through the first two days
- There is not cut in either the D-II or D-III Women’s Golf events
- At this point, the higher seed leads in only 5 out of 8 head-to-head events excluding MegaBot, although it seems that the Randomizer was likely used in some of those 8 matchups
- There are 112 points available and another 56 possible today

MB Playoff Roundup – May 10

Today is the final day of Round 1. Winners advance to the quarterfinals beginning tomorrow, while the losers move to the consolation bracket and the 9th place quarterfinals. Round 2 lasts only 8 furious days from tomorrow through next Sunday, May 18.
Notes from Thursday:
- JP had the highest Thursday point total with 155, some of that coming via Randomized picks from earlier in the round that had been missed
- Due to that, he has sliced Chris’ lead to just 33, making that a battle again; Doug leads Greg by 49 in the other matchup that is up for grabs
- Today there are a whopping 346 points available and another 164 points possible
