    Yeah, maybe I will make sure that my draft is "double stuffed" next year too.

    I don't want to be that guy. But the playoff brackets are wrong. I was the 3 seed and I was matched up with the 1 seed. I should have been matched up with the 2 seed. I know it was an honest mistake but shouldn't that be corrected?

    I want to be completely transparent here. I did not and neither did the other 5 teams realize the bracket was wrong. That is an issue with manually putting in the brackets. But it wasn't until I was looking to see if I still had a chance at winning the most points boxes that I realized that I was the team with the most points then was matched with the number 1 seed. I am not asking for scores to change or anything like that. I am just saying the matchups were not correct. That is an easy fix. The commisioner has told me that he will not be changing the bracket, but this does not feel fair.

    This issue is closed. I'm not changing the bracket after results are posted. Had this been brought up before the games started, then fine. Teams watched their teams win over the weekend and we have our final two. The rest of us can start getting our extras together and look forward to the addresses being passed out.

    Overall, I thought this was a fun, but strange, season. Good luck to the last two teams.

    I do not feel as if this is closed. I am not satisfied with your response regarding this and then telling me not to air this in a public forum. This is simply unacceptable, the commissioner made a mistake and you agree that you put the wrong bracket out there. There has to be some integrity here. I now have to question if this was done intentionally due to the lack of action.

    Was never intentional. But bringing this up after it had been posted for a couple of weeks is petty. Had you won this would not have been an issue. I'm not changing the bracket at this point in the playoffs. All playoff teams had a chance to review the playoff schedule when I set them first thing after the regular season ended. Once the matchups were set and we finished 2 rounds, I am supposed to go change them? No, not happening.

    I asked that we put this behind us and move on. I have taken plenty of things into account when setting up this league. Many have had suggestions and I have made changes to improve the league upon those suggestions. This is not one of these moments.

    But I looked up last year's playoff bracket and it was done properly. The winner of the 3/6 game played the 2 seed and the 4/5 winner played the 1 seed. I really don't see how anything done preseason can change that. I honestly assumed you were doing it right and didn't think I had to check the commissioner's manual edits. It wasn't until I was calculating if I still had a shot at the total points boxes that I realized that in fact I was playing the 1st seed while I should have been playing the 2nd seed. The first round of the playoff matchups were right 3 played 6 and 4 played 5, but the 2nd round was incorrect.

    @kdcyo,

    Granted you win overall points, I will cover your box. You will get the three that you are due. Keep the bottle that you offered as your entry fee.

    I do not adjust the second round of the playoffs or re-seed them. Once they were set it follows the outline. It's obvious you feel slighted and that is unfortunate. Once this week is completed we will see who gets boxes and I will communicate where they are going. I'm sorry, but I now consider this matter closed.

    Congrats to Matt Roden for winning overall points and the big game. He is choosing 8 boxes. The final 3 boxes go to Aaron Cook. I will send out an email letting everyone know where to ship. Start looking for your 90 ounces of impressive extras to pack along with your bottle.

    I had fun this season and hope everyone else did as well. Talk soon.

    I’m looking to get out some boxes this week while the weather is favorable. I don’t have a message with who I’m sending to. We figured all this out yet?

    There was an email sent out on January 2nd regarding payouts and addresses.. I think the commissioner should copy the email and post on BA, whether in this thread or private messages. Easier to keep up with than through personal emails.

    I did that last year and kinda got ripped for it because this was a public thread. Just check your emails. The address information you need is there.

    Use this thread to communicate that it has been sent. Loved the photos last year as the winner was getting them.

    Thanks everyone

    @Mateo2699, that is not my package. Check the return address on the shipping label. Glad they are rolling in.
