OK, there isn't much left here as there is only one game left, so I'm only going to shorten what I normally do...
Alpha
1. Dublin, 15-0.
Dublin has clinched the #1 seed.
Prediction: 16-0
2. London, 14-1.
Can't get the #1 seed, clinched #2 seed.
Prediction: 15-1
3. Malta, 12-3.
Beat Western Europe, and they clinch the #3 seed. A loss plus Dresden win puts them in the #4 seed.
Prediction: 13-3
4. Dresden, 12-3.
Win vs. London guarantees them a home playoff game. Beat London, and Malta loss gets them the #3 seed. Loss plus Hollywood win gets them the #5 seed.
Prediction: 12-4, #5 seed.
5. Hollywood, 11-4.
Win and Dresden loss gives them a home playoff game and the #4 seed. Win and Dresden win gives them #5 seed. Somehow lose to Blackpool, plus Mandi's win, gives them #6 seed.
Prediction: 12-4, #4 seed.
6. Mandi's, 10-5.
Win and Hollywood loss gets them the #5 seed. Otherwise, they end up #6 seed.
Prediction: 11.5, #6 seed.
7. Birmingham, 8-7.
Win and clinch #7 seed. Can still end up out of the playoffs with a loss and wins by both Western Europe and Belgian.
Prediction: 9-7, #7 seed.
8. Western Europe, 8-7.
Win and clinch a playoff spot. Win and loss by Birmingham gives them the #7 seed. Win and Birmingham win gives them the #8 seed. Loss and Belgian loss gives them the #8 seed. Loss and Belgian win puts them out of the playoffs.
Prediction: 8-8, #8 seed due to win vs. Belgian.
9. Belgian, 8-7.
They need to beat 15-0 Dublin, PLUS need a loss by Western Europe OR Birmingham. A large order.
Prediction, 8-8 and out of playoffs due to loss vs. Western Europe.
I have a feeling both 8-8 teams this season are going to have 10-12 wins each next season...
Zeta
STILL VERY murky in the top 3 in Zeta. Last game will be finalize everything.
1. Wildcat, 15-0.
Win and they have the #1 seed. Lose to Chernobyl, combined with Brussels loss, and they end up #2 seed. If they lose to Chernobyl and Brussels wins, the 15-1 team with the most points ends up #1.
2. Brussels, 14-1.
Win combined with Wildcat loss, and score 149 more points than Wildcat and 51 more than Chernobyl in Week 16 game, and they have the #1 seed. Unfortunately, a win doesn't even guarantee them #2 seed, as a Chernobyl win could see them in 3rd, as they are the lowest scoring team of the top 3, being 50 points scored behind Chernobyl and 148 behind Wildcat.
3. Chernobyl, 14-1.
Win and they could end up anywhere from #1 to #3. Doesn't help much, does it? Well, a loss guarantees them #3 seed. If they end up in a 3 way tie at 15-1, they need to beat Wildcat by 99 points to get the #1 seed, or not have Brussels outscore them by more than 50 to get the #3 seed. If they win by less than 99, and Brussels scores 50 more points than they do in week 16, then they sit in the #3 seed.
4. Stuuttgart, 12-3
Clinched #4 seed. Can play a spoiler in game vs. Brussels, as a win against Brussels plus a win for Chernobyl will give Chernobyl the #1 seed and drop Brussels to #3.
5. Disciples, 10-5.
Win against Hawaii, and clinch the #5 seed. Loss, plus win by Canterbury puts them in #6 seed.
6. Canterbury, 10-5.
Win vs Milan, plus loss by Disciples to Hawaii can get the #5 seed. Otherwise, clinched #6 seed.
7. Zurich, 9-6.
Clinched #7 seed. Can't pass Zurich or Canterbury, since they lose tiebreakers against them, and can't be passed by Dresden or Noregr, as Zurich owns the tiebreakers. Still have no clue who they will play in first round of playoffs...
8. Noregr and Dresden. They play each other. Winner sees a playoff game, loser goes home. Tie, and Noregr gets in due to points scored, having scored 1334 so far this season where Dresden has only scored 1123.
Good luck to everyone. In Alpha, 3, 4, 5, and 8 are still up for grabs, basically. In Zeta, 1, 2, 3, and 8 are still up for grabs. This is, unless a miracle loss to a playoff team by a non playoff team...
