Competitions 2024 Midprice Madness Competition

[Ironhawk]

Mentioned it multiple times already, and forgot to again when I updated late last night, but huge thanks to @Beg2Differ for stepping in here this year with all the updates he has provided. This competition wouldn't be anywhere near as good without your regular input, and also for providing updates on my behalf when I was absolutely smashed by work mid season. Definitely appreciate everything you have done not just here, but in various other topics throughout the site. Thank you.

Absolutely agree that @Beg2Differ, with his input, made this Competition much more enjoyable. And thankyou @Ironhawk for running this Comp so well, I really enjoyed it.
Congratulations @Diabolical on winning this Comp.

Round 24 Results:

Congratulations to @Diabolical on becoming the fourth player to win this competition! I guess being an Essendon fan, at least your season here ended up far better, great effort. @T-Rex just edged out @xanderdom for second place overall in a very tight finish, with @Athomas not being able to do quite enough to make the overall podium.

It's worth pointing out the result @Beijing_Sting managed this season - first in Lock and Load, last here. As both require locking in a team at the start of the season and have similar strategies in a way, it's quite impressive to see such a large difference between the two results - that'd actually be tough to achieve.

As for Rd 24 results, @randomcliche can take some consolation from a round win (and seeing his team make finals), edging out @Old Big 'Ead and @toxic who complete the podium.

Thanks to everyone for participating again this season. If results didn't go your way this year, maybe next year will be the one for you. I'm just wanting to beat the Cookie Monster at least once in this comp, but I'm not sure that'll ever happen!

Thanks for your time in running this comp @Ironhawk

Let me tell you that it wasn’t just my saviour from Essendon disappointment, it was also a nice distraction from my deplorable SuperCoach, Dreamteam, Fantasy, Ultimate League and Mid Price Madness seasons!

I guess it shows if we enter enough things, then luck might run our way in one of them!

If you had a deplorable Mid Price Madness season, just imagine how bad everyone else's was!

Happy to be in the top 50 🤔

"If you ain't first, you're last."

Congratulation ya'all on your collectively shared wooden spoon.

Biggest Congratulations to @Diabolical of course

Congratulations to @Diabolical - I'm a confirmed mid-pricer in the main event, but still cant get much above middling in this comp..

Many thanks in particular to @Ironhawk and @Beg2Differ for their dedication and time.

Anyone who can be bothered, or has the capacity - I'd love to see a breakdown of all the best picks from the midpricers this year

 

[Beg2Differ]

The question from @MC's Mix above reminded me I hadn't calculated the maximum score achievable this year for the MPM. I believe that team is as follows which would have scored 42,245 (avg 1760) or 4,305 points more than @Diabolical's winning score of 37,940 (avg 1580).

The following shows all the MPM players ranked by total points for each team. Note that it would include mid-season draftees who obviously couldn't be selected as I don't have a record handy of who they were.

Looks like plenty of these players will be available again next year, priced in the MPM range again.

Thanks a lot for these stats / best team.
