It took some time. Data had to be collected and collated and, in some cases, entered.
Rankings needed to be made.
And finally, a blog post written. All done? We now have final results for Doubt Wars 2017.
For those who don’t know, Doubt Wars is the game in which contestants choose their own fantasy teams based on the prices paid in the Tout Wars Auctions, before the season starts. For the price a player went for, plus $1, teams roster 23 player squads with a $260 budget and compete all season long in the 10 Tout Wars categories (5×5 with OBP instead of BA) using the same rosters. There are no substitutions.
When it comes to collating, the multiple leagues are joined and compared to the draft day results of the actual Tout Wars teams. For the first time this year, all three Doubt Wars leagues were won by Tout Wars owners, not surprising in a year in which Tout Wars winning owners set records for most points and biggest margin of victory.
The winners are:
Doubt Wars NL:
- Grey Albright, Tout Champ
- LynchMob, civilian
- Witty Puns, civilian
- Team 19, civilian
- Phil Hertz, Tout
Doubt Wars AL
- Jason Collette, Tout
