2018 Forum H2H League & Pigeon Cup

If you haven't created a fantasy team on mlssoccer.com go ahead and do that now. There is going to be a short window to try and make the Forum H2H League expansion happen for the Fall season.
I've made it already c: Waiting on future details, if there will be! Even if not, I'm gonna just practice and keep track of the fall season on my own

Spring Season Final Results

Congrats to JayH JayH [Edit] Welcome to the Zungul for winning the Spring League with a 16-1-4 record.

The final hour adjustment of Quintero's scoring provided some late drama as Jack Jack 3 Piece Suit Ultras went from a win to a tie and the dropped 2 points resulted in identical 15-1-5 records with my own Berget's BadAss Beard but I have him on the tiebreaker with 2201 season points to 2112 (I am skeptical of the GD tiebreaker).

More than half the prize pot is still up for grabs and everybody in the league can still win the Pigeon Cup and Fall Season.

Technically I can open the Fall League on July 31st but I am going to be travelling and it might not happen until August 1st. I believe everybody will be automatically reentered when I open the league but keep your eyes open that week because the league will lock on August 4th.

JayH JayH is the Zungul coach.

Please remind me what the current prizes are so I may distribute.

Does this week have any effect whatsoever on anything?

Man, the 74th best MLS Fantasy Soccer Manager in the world gets no respect. :)
 
I think so Shwafta Shwafta but we aren't 100% sure. I have assumed all along that team values will reset to $100M so there is a level playing field but it doesn't actually say that anywhere. It wouldn't be fair if you were at $100M and everyone else was at $130M-$160M.

At what point will we know if it resets or not?

Late drama indeed. Its pretty cool how an overnight correction of only a couple points could change the final week results and the final standings and the $$ all in one sweep. I'm happy it was a tight Spring season throughout.

Looking forward to the Fall season.

Ended up 51st out of 32,720. Although that probably makes me the 51st biggest dork in the world.
That's great. If bitnomad didn't screw up the last 2 weeks you would have gotten the $200 for being top in Fans of NYCFC too.
