As we pass from Twilight into the Shadow I thought it would be a good time to reflect on the Survivor series and how it has grown here on the FBG Mock Draft forum over the years. Unfortunately; like the Christian raid on the pagan library of Alexandria, much of the history was lost when ffplace ceased to be and vanished from the internet.
Determined, I have dug through the dust of the archives. I’ve reviewed all available records. While FBG historical posts end in 2006, I was able to tabulate the following…..
From 2002-2011, there have been 120 Survivor drafts and corresponding leagues. At last tally in 2009, there were over 260 unique participants (or at least 260+ aliases). The current championship hall of fame standings are as follows:
5 Wins – Rudy, BikeSeatSniffer
4 Wins – Fiddles, Jeter23
3 Wins – BassNBrew, Capt Hook, Dpeease, Duckboy, JeffPasquino, Pictus Cat, Radballs, Twilight, Valence
2 Wins – Air Fryar/FM696969, Atomic Punk, Construx Boy, Fullback Fro, Gamma1210, Joffer, Krsone21, LHUCKS, Preds, Reaper, Shadowfax
Single Winners Pool:
Aaron Rudnicki, Abrecher, AhrnCityPahnder, Andy Dufresne, Ardethan, Beachbum, Blue Kun, Crippler, Dallas428, Domination, El Super Gringo, EvilGrin72, Family Matters, ffweasel, Football Critic, Frank Black, Fubar, Getinthemix, Ghost of Bill Walsh, Glumpy, Go DC Yourself, Gonads, Grouse, Hear the Footsteps, Iwannabeacowboy, JaxFan, Jeff Tefertiller, Jmills, Mike2670, Nathan, NorrisB, Nugget, Old Milwaukee, Oldfatguy, Pimpin Aint Easy, Preds, Radballs, Renesauz, SKA, Steel Dillo, Stinkin Ref, Tag, Wannabee, Wolverine, Yellow Line is Unofficial
So that accounts for 92 117 of the 120 leagues, which leaves 28 3 in a mystery status. If I have your win tally wrong, or if your name is missing – send over a PM and I’ll get you onto the historical archive. One name you don’t see there is Shadowmaster. Hoping to change that AGAIN this year, but enough about the past….. Let’s move on to 2012.
On tap for 2012 are 11 leagues in the survivor series.
As most are aware, we have all these leagues tracked over at MyFantasyLeagues. Thanks to everyone over there who helped make that all possible and thanks to all the volunteers who loaded all the draft data for all eleven, very deep, sixteen team drafts. Current scores are easy to read, but the remaining players display can be deceptive. Keep all this in mind when viewing the these early results. As this is the first week with the new system, please verify your scores for accuracy.
We’ll start with the US Open of survivor leagues – the Winter Survivor League (WSL). Drafted while the Lambeau tundra is still newly frozen and requiring the prognostic foresight of a soothsayer, this is really anyone’s league to win.
WSL1 is bogged down with errors. Please hold….
WSL2 has Jeter23 currently on top with Uruk-Hai fighting for survival
WSL3 shows Restless Native leading and RedZone in last
Next up is the PreDraft Survivor League (PDSL). Participants are drafted into their slots by the league captains. Drafted in March while most sports lovers are into the NCAA basketball tourney; these draft addicts are thinking nothing but fantasy pigskin.
PDSL Krsone21 has JeffPasquino ready to claim immunity and ironically Krsone21 could be first out
PDSL StinkinRef shows Shadowfax as high score and Crippler struggling to keep up
This brings us to the Spring Survivor League (SSL). Participants are seeded based on their previous year’s finish. Newbies all start in SSL4, with SSL1 representing the best from the past year. Because of this, winning the SSL1 title is considered by many as the pinnacle achievement in the Survivor league series.
SSL1 shows staffer Jason Wood leading with Snellman playing catchup
SSL2 has Team Legacy in front and Go Blue in last
SSL3 has Survivor commish BassNBrew leading and Crippler again in a dog fight to stay
SSL4 is being led by Phenix and has solorca currently in last
Closing us out is the grand-daddy of them all – the Message Board Survivor Leagues (MBSL). Drafted late in training camp right before the season starts, participants have a lot more data to work with. However; still with all the challenges that a no roster move, best ball format presents.
MBSL1 front runner is my fellow south beach bum Ministry of Pain with Sinrman on the ropes
MBSL2 has JeffP leading this league too while it looks like doom for fellow staffer Sigmund Bloom
Some notable performances of week 1 -
Dirty Mark Sanchez keeps his job for at least another week with 31.30 against the Bills
Buffalo backup RB CJ Spiller currently leads all RB scoring with 27.40 against the Jets
Dallas slot WR3 Kevin Ogletree currently leads all WR scoring with 31.40 againt the Giants
The JetsD had a great week with 20.0
Back Tuesday morning with the Final results update.
Hope everyone enjoyed the kickoff weekend and have a great Monday.
