    Yes, we were talking past each other. If you have two teams, you are supposed to ship double the amount of beer. I was offering a savings on shipping costs not on beer sent. So when those with two teams ship, they are expected to ship a minimum of 88 ozs, others need to ship a min of 44 oz.

    EDIT: Not being a pain in the ass at all, this BIF was thrown together haphazardly and it's better to have things cleared up before winners are declared. I welcome any second guessing.

    Glad that is settled. In in for 88oz of beer. I don't care how I ship it. We are good now.

    Thanks for working it out with me. I'll go back to work now.

    Well, if I can keep you from working, maybe we can argue about something to keep it going?

    My Raptors are better at getting unique scores than your Wizards. Your team is so duplicative. [Shots fired!]

    Less than a month to go before the 1st half winner is declared. Feb 12 is the start of the All-Star Break.

    All up to date, but not proofread. I will proofread at some point this week (match up number of games played vs. games entered for each team). If you find an error, please let me know. This is all hand entered data entry, mistakes may (probably) will happen. Don't feel bad about telling me about a mistake.

    You know what was a terrible idea? This BIF...

    the MLB one with eight thousand side BIFs was way worse... the good news is BAers are fantastical types and you're providing such a wonderful service and infinite enjoyment to a whole group of them!

    That reminds me, I need to set up a side BIF.

    First team to hold James Harden (I know I have the Thunder but the Rockets are my team in real life) to under 10 points in a "complete game" get a box of hoppy goodness from me. Complete Game means I'm not considering games he misses or leaves due to injury, ejection, etc. This included regular season, playoffs and Championship games THEY WILL be playing.

    It's only happend once this season and he's only been close a couple times.

    That was so much fun! Unfortunately I am not as invested in this one as I am the MLB because I don't watch the NBA, I do appreciate the hard work in this one and will try to help out if I can.

    We are now all proofread. A couple of changes, but nothing drastic.

    Well, in game 1 since this LIF started, Harden scored 33 points. So no early winner.

    There is an insane 6 way tie for first place right now.

    EDIT: Added a new column for % Unique, which doesn't mean all that much, but thought it was interesting.

    Reposting the tiebreaker from much earlier in the thread:

    ****Tiebreakers: (changed from above to account for randomness of BIF)
    1) least number of games played
    2) most number of unique scores that are palindromes (77, 88, 99, 101, 111, etc.)
    3) most unique scores that end in 0
    4) most unique scores that end in 5

    Since it seems very likely that there will be a tie, I went through and highlighted all palindromes. I need to go through and cull (de-highlight) duplicate palindromes, which I will try to get done today.

    Last update of the day, only orange highlighted boxes count for the palindrome tiebreaker. The pink ones are duplicate palindromes. They remained highlighted so that I know that I checked them.
