I do doubt Hobart would've lost to LIU (and SHU as well), but sure if Knox, Archer and Scott were 2/35 then yeah we'd probably lose to anyone. Those kids have been together for 1.5yrs, 2.5 for Archer and Scott and I don't think any combo of 2 or 3 has had that shooting percentage ever in their careers.
It's all in good fun though.

Re: SimSeason 2020
But in all simulated seriousness, I guess the odds were pretty good that the simulations would have at least one team that hit a rough patch, and it looks like it was Hobart. Kind of wish it had been a team with less-passionate fans...laxreference wrote: ↑Sun Apr 05, 2020 5:28 am But in all simulated seriousness, I guess the odds were pretty good that the simulations would have at least one team that hits a rough patch, and it looks like it was Hobart.

Re: SimSeason 2020
Actually, on a macro scale, I think your sims are amazingly in the ballpark. No outrageous scores, at least magnitude wise. No one is putting up 30 or 40, nor 1 or 2. Upsets happen.
On the micro scale - your player stats and box scores - okay, sometimes things stand out. The fact that you even simulate with that kind of granularity and wind up with anything that mostly holds together is fairly impressive in my opinion.
Well done. I will never be a critic, because I know that what you are doing isn’t easy and is quite impressive.
Now, if you simulate a Hopkins NC$$ championship, I’ll buy you some beer just for making everyone’s heads explode around here.

Re: SimSeason 2020
Question. Cornell beat Penn, Dartmouth and Harvard and lost to Yale. Yet you have them at 2-1 in the Ivy League. Why haven't they been credited with that third win in the SimSeason standings? I know it's simulated, but it's all we have. Thanks for doing the SimSeason. It is fun to follow.laxreference wrote: ↑Tue Apr 07, 2020 8:55 pm That's a wrap on another SimSeason Tuesday:

Re: SimSeason 2020
Thank you for pointing this out. I was confused why Cornell had such low odds of ending up with the top seed in the IL tournament despite being the top ELO team in the conf. It was because the Dartmouth game never got officially uploaded to the simDB.Chousnake wrote: ↑Wed Apr 08, 2020 12:39 am

It's been updated and the Big Red are now 3-1 in conf and have a 30% chance at snagging the top seed.
