Competitions BBL|14: SCS Finals Competition

[blue dreamer]

I don't think you did much damage, Brian. Nothing super special in tonight's scores, so you're still in it.

After missing the first game I wasn't going to compete but this simple post gave enough encouragement to continue.
Thanks Rowan I enjoyed it and if there was one more game I was coming for you all.😉

Thanks everybody for participating this year and hopefully it was a bit of fun to finish off BBL Supercoach for 24/25. A field of 32 is a nice number for this sort of comp.

I have used the concept a few times in comps and must admit that I was worried it was turning out to be a bit of a fizzer after the first 3 games but tonight's game I think showed that it can work. In theory people should feel they are always a chance to improve significantly and that happened for quite a few tonight. In truth 4 games for the BBL finals is probably not quite enough for it to work well.

Still not sure I got the scoring quite right. I probably over-corrected on the bowling ER bonus where very few points were scored and even SR bonus points for batters seemed quite difficult to earn. Food for thought if I used this again in future.

Thanks all and happy to take any feedback.

Sorry, things got away from me and I didn't get a chance to put a team in.
Thanks for running the comp, it's a fun format.

Thanks @Beg2Differ, always like playing in these finals formats you run, good fun. Also nice to not sweat on a quick 20 every time! Would much rather this scoring system in SuperCoach. Well done to @Aston for taking it out.

Thanks for organising @Beg2Differ.
Congratulations @Aston.
I think that's my worst ever result in a B2D finals comp!

Congrats to @Aston, and thanks for the comp and in play updates @Beg2Differ.

Well I was consistently 3rd or 4th throughout, but couldn't deliver a killer blow. Still, I'll take 4th. Well done on @Aston for the win and thanks @Beg2Differ for running the comp!

Congrats @Aston on taking out what was a very close run competition with the final results still hanging in the balance during the final innings of the Grand Final.

Great work as usual @Beg2Differ
