but boosting early is fail. You will look good at start and have a decent season but get owned in post.

I know you guys keep saying this (and I wouldn't boost early either), but I don't see how it is going to hurt you in the playoffs of season 1 if you boost early. Long term your dot would be at a disadvantage against others that don't, but the difference at the end of season one is negligible. Mostly just XP lost after reaching level 16 earlier than the other players, which will hurt later on.

Orkan hasn't boosted yet and we won't until day 48, but still made the playoffs. We are building for the long haul not just for this season.

Playoff outlook:

WEST
Exp Score  Matchup
  31 -   16    Granwinsnell PolarKats def. Bremerhaven Orkan
Polarkats took Orkan in regular season, and in the first round of the GLB Tourney. 3rd time a charm for Orkan?

  26 -   20    Chesterfield HumDingers def. Xenia Xplosion
Cheterfield took Xenia in head to head regular season. HOWEVER: Xenia took Bama and FDFL - both teams that the dingers lost to in regular season. Could go either way.

  30 -   14    Alabama Crimson Tide def. Syndrome Cerebral Assassins
Bama handily beat the Assassins in regular season. Expect a repeat performance this game, even with much of SCAs dots all in.

  27 -   25    Los Angeles Centurions def. FreeDots ForLife
LA took FDFL in regular season, barely lost to Bama and beat the kats in OT. FDFL lost to both those teams. Since then, looks like much of FDFL took some vitamin-Boost and most of LA is inactive. I like FDFL in the upset win.


EAST

Exp Score  Matchup
  80 -   10    San Francisco Brawlers def. Lancaster Red Tornado's
No surprise here. San Fran has been dominating and move to 17-0.

  37 -   17    PARRIS ISLAND DEVIL DOGS def. Ford Merkins
PIDD just trounced FM to games ago. Unless FM was sandbagging, which I personally think they were (check out the San Fran losses for both teams), PIDD will advance. The triple boost by PIDD will also ensure the win.

  85 -     7    Whiteaker Free Range Vegans def. Olympian Vise
Olympians plead "no contest" and give WFRV the win.

  73 -   14    Cincinnati Thundercats def. New York Trojans
Thundercats continue to remain unchallenged and move forward with an easy win over NYT.

But I mean, only maybe 5 people on the smokers have boosted AT ALL. Your team is full of level 15s, mine is full of level 12s

GG Chesterfield! I wanted to strangle your KR after the 2nd half kickoff, there is good reason why he is the ST MVP. Great barnburner of a game and it really could have gone either way.
