Like, if we're facing elimination (ESPECIALLY down in a series) I think we have to send GOLDBLUM our resident Kamikaze pilot in with machine guns. But if we just need a steady hand to close it out, make the metaphorical short putt on the 18th, I think we need planetmars to come in and handle business.
DanH: WWWW -> I like this scenario
DanH: WWWL -> planetmars: W
DanH: WWWL -> planetmars: L -> Zainab: W
DanH: WWWL -> planetmars: L -> Zainab: L -> Game 7
The number of wins each person gets is actually irrelevant. The number of losses control the starter. So an elimination game will be the 4th option.
That fits with our current breakdown if we slot Goldblum ahead of Scraptor. But you are right - as long as we settle on the pool we are drawing from, that does leave us three options at 80% win % we can slide in late in the series if it gets to that point.

Love and respect to all the great thread-makers throughout the season.
Nice job taking the bull by the horns Dan.
Definitely agree Zainab should start third.
I'm super cool with being a game-time decision whenever called upon,
between me or Scraptor or whoever else if need be.
Maybe there can be some convo about that when the moment presents itself,
or Scraptor and I can figure it out when the time comes. I'm easy.
I'm going against the grain slightly here though, I don't think the Raps should shorten their bench in the playoffs and neither should we. Too much good work from 007, Consmap, et all. (with an additional thumbs up to the addition of Joey and JClaw)
Lastly, I fully agree with Dan and maybe we need a separate poll to make the mods agree to such a thing... I think we should delete any thread that hops in out of nowhere to eff shit up, as was the case last year. Bad juju. This year's Raps are holding their stars accountable, let's hold our playoff gamethread-makers accountable.
