Zeeky_Bomb 02/28/18 5:58:03 PM #62:	I'd pay loans, put some amount in a trust, buy a home, and then donate whatever's left. I've become less comfortable with the idea of having millions of dollars, which sounds ridiculous I admit, but it can be best used elsewhere. Oh, and on the subject of tanking and draft lotteries, have you heard of the Gold Plan? Because it's perfect for anti-tanking. Simply, once a team is eliminated from the playoffs, a new set of standings is created for the teams eliminated. Teams are added only when they are out. Whoever is on top of these standings at the end of the season gets the first overall pick. It definitely doesn't work in the NFL (which is kind of immune to true tanking due to roster sizes), but I think the NHL and NBA should put it in place. --- http://i.imgur.com/yPyOj0i.jpg <cite>Zeeky_Bomb posted [p:896947852] in Sports Dis...

SteamedHams 02/28/18 6:40:01 PM #63:	I'm not sure I follow. You're saying the team with the most wins after being eliminated gets a better pick? Then wouldn't they still just tank to get eliminated sooner and have a chance to get more wins? Or if you meant fewest wins, then it wouldn't really be different than it is now. I don't really understand it either way since official elimination happens very late in the season, even if a team obviously has no chance otherwise. Why base something around a sample size of like an eighth of a season? <cite>SteamedHams posted [p:896950164] in Sports Dis... [t:76361234]...</cite> <quote>I'm not sure I follow.

SteamedHams 02/28/18 6:49:07 PM #64:	Just to make the math more concrete, imagine an NBA team having an 0-50 start. For them to be eliminated, you'd have to have eight other teams in their conference with a 33-17 record (0.660 winning percentage) or better. Both ends of those are very extreme and you're talking about 60% of the season already at that point. <cite>SteamedHams posted [p:896950718] in Sports Dis...

And it's not like you can obviously tank, either. If you try to tank by coaching, wouldn't you just try to be a fringe playoff team if you have the talent to win after elimination? If you drop all of your players, then you aren't gonna win after you get eliminated. I mean, yeah, being a fringe playoff team doesn't give you any advantages in the NBA.

MNTwins1991 02/28/18 7:05:29 PM #67:	I heard somewhere that the NBA was also looking at adding MLB style 1 game play-ins for a real playoff slot. I guess the idea behind is that the more teams that are potentially in contention the less tanking there will be. I don't love this idea but I like it better than the one slurpee brought up I guess one good thing about that plan would be that it would eliminate the lottery (which nobody likes), but if has the potential to make really bad teams stay really bad, or if a team's star player gets hurt, can put them in a really bad spot <cite>MNTwins1991 posted [p:896951687] in Sports Dis...

SteamedHams 02/28/18 7:10:29 PM #69:	That doesn't make sense to me either. They have a ton of playoff teams already, and any team that might potentially miss out on the playoffs because of a tiebreaker probably wasn't going to tank anyway. Maybe they should just equally randomize the lottery, or put it into tiers or something. Obviously there's no way to satisfy everybody or they probably would have done it already <cite>SteamedHams posted [p:896951984] in Sports Dis...

SteamedHams 02/28/18 7:19:02 PM #70:	I have an idea I just made up. Is it crazy? Worst 4 teams = tier 1, next-worst 5 = tier 2, next-worst 5 = tier 3 Every tier 1 team has 12.5% chance at the top pick Tier 2 = 7% Tier 3 = 3% After the top three are set, go down in order of tier BUT within each tier draw proportional to record for the order. So like the 9-14 teams would still be 9-14, but it could be any order. Seems like it would add some variation but not move the teams around too much.

I have never opened my $60 copy of Nioh <cite>CaptainHammer posted [p:896957961] in Sports Dis... [t:76361234]...</cite> <quote>I used to watch a lot of TV shows and then I slowed down a ton because there were too many. Last year there were too many games and that became a risk but with my gamer powers I powered through and I think this will be a lighter year. I have never opened my $60 copy of Nioh</quote> ...

Well, luckily I built mine a while ago, but I wouldn't mind adding more RAM if it actually cost around what it did a few years ago. CaptainHammer posted... Last year there were too many games and that became a risk but with my gamer powers I powered through and I think this will be a lighter year. BotW, Odyssey and the SNES Classic were too much for me to pass up, but I don't know of anything like that this year (maybe the NES Classic). Now that I have those things though I feel like my urge to get new games is satiated for a while. So far I've only made one small gaming purchase in 2018 that I can remember. <cite>SteamedHams posted [p:896958322] in Sports Dis...

STLCards1991 02/28/18 9:59:16 PM #91:	I'll be getting A Way Out and Yakuza 6 in the not too distant future. There's still stuff like Resident Evil 7 and Persona 6 that I'd like to get around to as well. And I'm planning to get Into The Breach at some point but I'm focused on Yakuza Kiwami at the moment. I've still got a lot of that left to dig into. <cite>STLCards1991 posted [p:896961381] in Sports Dis...

SteamedHams 02/28/18 10:16:11 PM #95:	Where's the Switch version? They never announced one but you know it's a real possibility. I already have the game on two systems and I mostly dock my Switch, but it would be cool anyway As in 4, not 7 <cite>SteamedHams posted [p:896962211] in Sports Dis...

MNTwins1991 02/28/18 10:18:50 PM #96:	yeah it's definitely do-able. They've ported that game to like 18 systems at this point, might as well do the switch. Especially if it's only $5. If I had a car trip and I was bored, I'd play $5 for a few hours of portable RE4 <cite>MNTwins1991 posted [p:896962312] in Sports Dis... [t:76361234]...</cite> <quote>yeah it's definitely do-able.

STLCards1991 02/28/18 10:22:30 PM #97:	RE4 is so great. I always mean to buy one of the millions of re-releases but never have. That's one of my favorite games. I don't actually have RE7 for the record, it's just been on my "to buy" list for over a year. <cite>STLCards1991 posted [p:896962503] in Sports Dis... [t:76361234]...</cite> <quote>RE4 is so great.

SteamedHams 02/28/18 10:25:37 PM #98:	Should I play any of the older RE games? They seem like they might really suck for somebody whose first (and still only) one is 4. I have no interest in 5 and 6, but 7 seems interesting enough if I end up getting a PS4 or Xbone <cite>SteamedHams posted [p:896962654] in Sports Dis...
