Guess we're going to go ahead and use this process.  So here are the final results.
 

Experts
Jace = 92.28 + 29.1 (Allen) = 121.38
Jaxom = 85.92 + 12.82 (Mixon) + 5.85 (Knox) + 8.19 (McPherson) = 112.78

Jace wins

Westeros A
Tywin = 126.42 + 13.04 (Diggs) + 8.74 (Singletary) = 148.2
Jaime = 110.18 + 26.29 (Burrow) + 5.85 (Knox) = 142.32

Tywin wins

Westeros B
Ross = 120.92 + 29.1 (Allen) = 150.02
Whiskeyjack = 83.66 + 10.49 (Higgins) + 8.24 (Davis) = 102.39

Ross wins

Westeros C
POTN = 137.36
Jaime = 88.44 + 29.1 (Allen) = 117.54

POTN wins

 

All of these results are actually the same as what we already have in Yahoo after the Buffalo/Cincy game was canceled, so nothing changes there.

Tywin, Ross, and POTN are all invited into Experts.

Congrats everyone!

Congrats @Tywin et al.! A recurring story in Experts is me giving someone hell for years until they ultimately shut me up by beating me in a pivotal matchup, like Jaxom did winning his first Experts title over me, and like you did in the W-A finals beating me to finally make it after years of frustration. Well earned. 

Also welcome back @Prince of the North! I liked my W-C team. Wish it had put up more of a fight in the finals.

I just can't help but laugh that this is the team that got me in. I had a team that probably scored more than any other team in the history of this forum, I've built so many good teams that finished second or third, and this dog shit team that started 1-4 that I almost quit on is what did it.

Justin Fields saved my ass.

Thanks, @Jaime L!  Certainly a strange final!  But, as always, that's why they/we play the games, right?

[Jaxom 1974]

Jace gets an asterisk next to that winning trophy in Experts though, right?

Yeah, it says:  *Whiskeyjack gets 10% credit for setting Jace's lineup the last 2 months(**)

(**Minus 1% credit for forgetting to set it in the championship while he was on vacation, thereby leaving in Deandre Hopkins to get a 0......but she won anyway, so lets just forget about that)

Thanks @Whiskeyjack

fun season. Glad my aggressive two qb approach didn’t blow up in my face.

For Westeros B and C, I'm just going to copy the intro I posted last year.

B and C are leagues that start over with new owners every year.  No preference or priority given to people who have been in the leagues in the past. 

B is a snake draft, while C is an auction.  Otherwise, they are the same setup.  The most important feature being that each one uses expanded lineups (2 QB, 3 RB, 4 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DEF, 10 Bench).

Post here if you would like to signup for either league.  Going to start by limiting it to one of either B or C per person, just to make sure everyone has a chance to play.  So please specify which league you are joining when you post. 

But, be sure it will help you https://onlinecasinohex.ph/blog/how-to-calculate-sports-betting-odds/ and you will use it.

Thank you for sharing this information about Westeros B and C leagues. It's good to know that both leagues start fresh every year and that there is no preference or priority given to past owners. It's also helpful to know that B is a snake draft and C is an auction, and that both leagues use expanded lineups.

Maybe I'm biased because I came up through C, but it has much closer settings to Experts than a snake draft would, so keep that in mind if you want to make noise long term.

As for me, just Dynasty only this year.  Too many other leagues.

[Mr. Chatywin et al.]

Speaking of Experts:

 

[mcbigski]

So it looks like we need at least 1-3 new owners in Dynasty if thats going to stay viable.  Any volunteers?

[grozeng]

And keeper.  It would be a shame to have these leagues go away.  They have been on the board for, I don't know how many years, bu probably the longest leagues we have.  Even if it is a 1-year commitment we can try to find a new owner earlier next year.

[grozeng]

We need 1-3 more owners for the keeper league.  It's a quick snake draft due to the keepers and fun to build a team over the years.  I posted the rosters on the Fantasy Keeper Thread.  There is an open team, JJ's team and JJ's brother's team (JJ's team led the league in points for most of the season and JJ's brother's team came in 2nd).

Let me know if you want to join.  Draft will be some time this week.  We also need another owner for Dynasty.   I will get those rosters up tonight.

 

[mcbigski]

Took Kelce tonight in a twelve team 1 keeper league.  Can't keep anyone from the first three rounds and your keeper is one round higher the second year, and automatically 3rd round if you keep him twice.  So ADP ends up being off by about 2 spots by the middle of the first, and about 4 by the turn.

I had Rhamondre for a 6th or 7th, picking out of the 9 spot.  Nick Chubb went one pick before mine, so I went with Amon-Ra 10th.  Not sure if I like that pick or not, but I just couldn't pull the trigger on Pollard or Henry at that price, and like St Brown better than Adams or AJ Brown, who went before my next pick.  (Chase, J Wilson, Jacobs, Burrow, and Olave were all kept btw).  Full PPR.

Coming back around I took Kelce 15th overall , and figured I'd just scramble week 1.  Grabbed Okonkwo fairly late to start this week.  

I think it was the right call.  Got Metcalf and Breece Hall as follow ups, so I ended up reaching a round I think on Geno (8th) to make the stack, and took Conner at a good price, though I have great fears for AZ's offense. 

I figure one I get past the first week or two, if Kelce and Hall start trending up I should be a very strong team.

Thoughts?

 

[grozeng]

One last ditch effort (until next week if this does not work).  We just need one owner to draft.  No long term commitment.  Right after the draft, I will switch the league to a generic email (or we can do that before and you just login) and then I will edit the lineups during the season based on Yahoo projected points.

So if anyone has time Friday for one last draft, please consider helping us out!!
