[PLEASE NOTE: I HAVE PLACED THE LEAGUES IN A RANDOM ORDER].
Diamond Division
BNR: The absence of Tanmay is kinda effecting BNR. He was 8-0 therefore undefeated and was playing every single week, now is missing in action, this is the 4th week in a row. Not that BNR can't win matches without Tanmay but cmon, the guy wins every week and gives them a point more. BNR still has a lot of talent and is ran by a great captain, Dina that is. My advise to you guys is [dont give up], you started the season well and let it end well. Hopefully Tanmay will be back soon and help them out. Now there has been this ''drama'' going on this week between FR and BNR. Not something very bad that happened, everyone is still cool, Petey and Dina are good friends. It's just that BNR caught an FR player with 4 legit games and said they had faked the 2 others or they were timer wins or losses. Anyways, there was a rematch apparently yesterday night where Petey played Palp in a bo3 i suppose and Petey won 2-1 I think. BNR are currently on a long streak and PFN keep winning, they really needa catcup if they wanna be #1 in the division, bol guys.
Key players: Tanmay, Luis, Josh
DS: There are some players in their roster that I don't know of, but I see some talents like Adambuddy, Koty and their hero of a captain Ashton cuebank. I'm sure ya'll wanna know why I'm calling this guy hero. Well to begin with, I don't even like the guy but hey, loo at what he's been doing with DeadStrokes. Not only is he 8-2 and barely ever loses, but he brings talented players to the league with him to help out. Roy, you are 1 lucky guy I can say to have a captain like that. I read the interview he did with Jlips and he's a pretty wise guy too. I mean, he can do anything he sets his mind to. Though this isn't needed to be said, I will say it.. He still holds the Dreampool record of most trnys ran in 1 day. He even beat his own record once. He also holds the record of most trnys hosted in 1 week, how nice is that. He used to do whole day marathons and gift rares. This proves that this guy wants to be the best at anything he does, and shit, hes gettin there. I hope that defines the word hero well enough, lol.
Key players: Adam, Koty, Ashton
FR: I just love this league, not cuz its active or good or anything, just cuz Petey is captain! He's a smart guy, very wise in English voc. n all =p. He started UIC with a little team. Well look at it now. The bigest upser for them this season was beating PK 5-0. This was a day where PK had a full team I think, except for 1 player who was d/q'ed. Well I don't like Petey just cuz he's smart, but he also never backs down or gives up. See for example, Rick or someone from BNR was caught with a trny game reported at 6:00:30 or w/e, and Petey let the guy play. He has told me he rathers win fair n square than to get a free win by d/q'ing his opponents. I think that's how everyone should be. Though they don;t have so many wins this season, they won't give up and keep doing theit absolute best with the will that they can take a championship with them. With Dan now in FR, he will be helping them out the best he can, he is a good shooter, and I think will do well in UIC to say the least.
Key Players: Petey, Dan, Alips
LPL: Tino, jesus and their LPL team currently sitting in the last spot of the 4 playoff qualifying teams, though they are tied with True Champs and Freedom on the points. A rollercoaster of a sesson for LPL. 1 Week they win, other week they lose. Then 3 weeks in a row they lose, 2 weeks ina row they win. Not the best outcome the had wished for. But stay tight and keep trying. They have impressed me by having less no shows weekly. I checked their player stats page and saw that only twice they had short player, quite an improvement, at least from what I had heard about you guys at the start of the season. We all thought jesus would be a bad captain for LPL but nah hes doing just fine, getting players at the tbl week in week out, congrats. Their biggest upset this season was defeating BNR 4-1 2 weeks ago, that shocked a lot of people including me.
Key Players: Ant, p0olz, Tino
PFN: Pool Fiction expected a good season and they are succesfully living their expectations and accomplishing w/e they had planned. In week 1 they lost to DeadSrokes and were trully shocked, but Cubby said that will be his first and last loss of the season and we can see he is a man of his word. They currently are the #1 league in the Diamond Division and have a 11 winning streak and a sexyazz 11-1 record to go with that. As we see, Cubby being captain of this team, he stands most of the time and gives his players the opportunaty to play and demonstrate their skills. Lewis been playing the most, he's a good player, good english, he once went +4 winning streak which is great. Other than him, they have Stu who is a pro player and +5 streak.
Key Players: Cubby, Lewis, StuSP: A pretty bad season for them, horrible even. They are at the bottom of the ladder in the Diamond Division. Looking at their roster, 1 would think this league pwnz and are in the top 4. They dont suck cuz they dont have the players. They got a lot aof decent shooters in their roster like Ketan, Pete, Snooky but they dont try hard. It's like they dont care. Oh wait, something just hit me. I was talking to Pete 1 day on yim, and he told me he doesnt care of UIC, its the least important interlg for them, oh well. If it's not important why participate? To lose? There are players in SP that wanna win, they joined the league to play, win and have fun. So if the guy in charge of SP interlgs doesnt care about UIC, then why participate? Snooky is a nice guy, and a good shooter, he been getting the players at the table every week, I think he's a better captain than both Ketan and Pete, sorry if you dont agree, but i've been in SP last season and even played UIC for them for 2 weeks, and lets just say, I didnt like how they were trearing me.
Key Players: Ketan, Snooky
TC: True champs is the league to watch at this time of the season ladies and gentleman. Though they havn't won every match they have played, if ya'll havn't noticed, they are getting tpl players like pommy and travis, also an old poollegends admin emocal. Yes, they arent so high in the standings but they got good players and can make a little impact in the 2 remaining weeks if they play well, since they are tied on 4th i think with 2 other teams. If Pommy restarts winning that'll help them a lot, also cal n trav that are free wins, eh. Even if they make playoffs, I don't know if they will survive long since DD has strong teams like DS, PFN, BNR, and yes, even FR P etey =p but I wish ya'll bol.
Match #1 - FR v SP
Freedom last week won their match against BNR, but some people complained about fake reports or missing games, so they had a game 5 rematch 1 night and Petey was victor as he beat palp 3-2 and got the win. That win gave them another shot at the playoffs. Now, FR needs to beat SP this week and PFN next week to assure a playoff spot as they are currently tied for 4th with TC & LPL. But can they? With Petey and his will, anything can become reality. I kinda ranted on SP up there in recaps and I don't know what else to say about them cuz honestly, I dont enjoy predicting quitters. Cuz cmon, God knows will they show up? Will they even try and win? Will it make any difference since they are so far behind? I doubt it. But since Snooky is their captain this season, they might still show up and give it their best.
Score: FR 4-1!
Match #2 - BnR v PFN
This is the match we have all been waiting for, well atleast I have. I interviewed both Dina & Cubby 1 or 2 weeks before thsi big matchup to know what are their expectations. Now I shall do the honor of pasting here what they both said. Dina said: ''Im expecting them to come with their full team of course like they did last time we met... and We will come out and play as hard or even harder like we always do but, we will be more ready this time'', and Cubby said: "That we will have gone into that match without looking past a team that's actually more dangerous to us than they are. Sexy Poolerz ALWAYS give us fits. I think we beat them pretty bad in MLP once but everything else comes down to the last game. I think Simon said the last 3 times we played a 5v5 carry match (going back to Pro) it went all 9 games. I don't doubt it. As for BNR, I don't expect it to be a huge deal. Most likely we're gonna end up 1-2 in some order or another anyways. And home advantage isn't really a big deal." Some good stuff, eh. We can obviously see that PFN will be much more confident going to this match and BNR less after their shocking loss vs FR last week. Then again, anything can happen. So like M/p said, this is the Match Of The Week!
Score: PFN 3-2
Match #3 - DS v TC
Like Mister Predictor said, no one would have thought at the start of the season that DS would be this advanced in the standings, guess we all were underestimating them. Only had we known that Ashton was a good captain. With the effort put in UIC this season, they almost reached the top, but they still need to concentrate more and play better than ever if they wanna win the Cup. As for TC, as I mentioned above, yes, they do have a big team full of talents but I have a slight feeling that they wont make the playoffs, I do feel that FR & LPL want it more. Therefore TC's chances of making the playoffs are pretty slim, but prove me wrong.
Score: DS 3-2!
Match #4 - LPL v BYE
So with this beautiful bye, LPL gets higher chances of making the playoffs. Therefore, FR & TC will have to try 2 times harder and win both remaining matches, and I think LPL would have to lose next week if they wanna pass them, but they will need a lot of will.
Score: LPL 5-0!
EMERALD DIVISION
CuE mAsTerS
At the beginning of the season, believe it or not, I was having a hard time predicting CM, because I knw almost nothing about them. I went around asking many people what they think about CM[This was when I was doing my pre-season predictions]. Most would say they aren't very known or other would say they suck, they don't have any good player and they wont make playoffs. So that was why I gave them a bad prediction for the first few weeks. And now is when I kinda regret having underestimated them since they proved me and everyone else who lied to me by saying "CM sux". Anyhow, now I look at CM differently, and damnit, these guys are so damn good. They dont have ''Pro'' players so I don't know how they do it. Probably its their will and team spirit that took them this far. They dropped IPA at midpoint of the season and some thought they were dying. Maybe they just couldnt take 2 and wanted to concentrate on 1. Their record so far is 8-4. Their best player is Enabled I believe, and their newly arrived player Stevon red_taz from GR will look to help them in their quest to win the Cup.
Key Players: Luke, cuenoob, J., and since I was just speakin with Sean on yim, i'll add him too =p
RaNk MoNsTeRs
This is another league that I didn't know woot about at the start of the season, and quite frankly, well I still don't. I still know of them what I knew at week 0 which is pretty damn funny, eh. Well of course, I predict them every week and I check how they are doing in the ED overall, but eh. I mean, at week 1 I asked around about 2 teams[one was CM] and other was RM. Everyone said RM will rape and CM will suck. I guess it's the exact opposite of whats happening now. RM supposingly don;t carer uch about interleagues. All that aside, hell, hey didnt even bother showing up last week and gave GR a free 5-0 win. So what else do I know of RM? They disrrespect other team players, I know it cuz i've seen it, their button.ownz guy has a big mouth behind his arse, they get too many D/q's,[reminds me of GPC in the past]. Oh, and they arent a cases league. Ba,nothin else honestly, anyone got a dictionary?
ExTrEmE pOoL cOmPeTiToRs
Eh, as ya'll know, predicting yourself or your own team is pretty damn hard. Yes, I can easily say I own, we gonna win every match, we gonna take the Cup, but guess what it aint as easy as it seems. Of course I want EPC to win every week and I hope we do, but I can't predict us to win each and every match we play. Mister Predictor is right by saying im kinda weird. I admit I am. 1 week we own a team, other week we get owned by another. Why can't we own all the time, sigh. And what is very weird is that we can;t ever win both IPA & UIC in the same week, we always either win 1 or the other, or sometimes even lose both which isn't very fun. We got 2 powerful teams to face this week, them being SS in IPA & X8B in UIC. So no time to fuck up or waste time anymore as UIC season is almost coming to it's end, even for ED. We need big wins, and hopefully with my members' support we reach the playoffs in both. So I have been talkng to my ol' players and trying to get them to restart playing, so watch out for us ED, cuz we are comin to get ya! >:)
Key Players: Steven (Croz), Mina, Fabian, Craig

As much as I would love to keep on doing these long-ass recaps, time is running out and I wanna get these posted before 6 uic so im'a keep them short n nice. So...GR...came in UIC in week 3, started bad, horrible even with 6 losses in a row, fialy to get their first win vs a ''once in a lifetime noshowing from EPC'', [bite me Jlips]. Then another losses that was followed by their first legit UIC win 4-1 against a not so powerful UO side, but still a win, so grats. They have no shot at the playoffs, im sorry, unless they pull out a miracle and win every remaining week, I think even that way they wouldnt get a playoff position. But they can still play for the fun of it, and have a good time. Some leagues just dont mind losing, some do.
Key Players: Jenn, Tim
KiNkY bRiT pOoL
Drew will never give up! A true Warrior eh? No, im not being sarcastic. Since Annie left them, he's been working on his wn and hes doing a nice job getting players at the table all the time. They have good players like steven and jeremy[wont name all] that are trying to keep Drew's hopes up of making it to the playoffs. As they were rising back up, they lost to CM last week but thats no problem, still many weeks to go.
Key Players: Jeremy, Doh!Boy
UlTiMaTe OuTlAwS
Though Jlips believes in UO and claims they are very sportsmanlike[not that I don't], they aren't very powerful nor are they the team to watch this season. Since week 1, they only got 2 legit wins and 1 win due to a noshow. Last week they won against a dying MP side[Yes Jips, dying!] and surely they were very happy. But then again, you gotta face it that Jlips didnt have a full MP team, thats why UO won, or they wouldnt have had stood a chance. Just like GE, I dont think UO will make it to the playoffs unless a miracle takes place which I doubt, prove me wrong.
Key Players: Eh, idk them but xlx_sniped_xlx and Ryan?
MaGiC pOoL
Lucky for them, they started off the season pretty well, so now their slacking wont payoff that bad. They are 4th in ED, I think tahst the last playoff spot like DD, but if they keep slacking, EPC who is 5th and seeking playoff will easily pass them. But, if they restart winning, they'll for sure make playoffs, all depends on jlips.
Key Players: Ian, Joe
PoOl DrAgOnZ
Only 1 win this season, lack of good players maybe? It sucks that Charles is busy saturday nights, so can't be there for UIC, also seeing that Brice their second best player don't have a computer to get on at the moment. So poor Ashley can't do everything on her own. Not only does she have kids to take care of, plus she has to admin the league,and does everything for PDZ since Charles can barely get online due his long work scheduales, eh anyways. They did not show up last week. Hope they can today, we will see.Key Players: Brice, Ashley
8bAlL cRuShErS
8BC started off well this season I think, went 8-0 at some point I believe, but unfortuantly their winning habit got lost along with their league activity due to apparent room problems that caused many people to withdraw the league. In those players, there was ll_plan_ll, one of their best and most needed players. 8BC still stands as top team in the division though. So even if they dont win 2-3 matches, they still in playoffs!
Key Players: Mikey, Rackem, boston
XtReMe 8 bAlL
The fearless wolves! They have done a good job this season, won 9, lost only 3, though they were expecting much more at the start of the season. They were telling everyone they will own DD, well to lost to 8BC and 2 others supposingly, but still they are ''fearless'' and they are powerfui so beware, arghh. They are 2nd in the ED currently and should make playoffs unles they start a losing streak whick is doubty.
Key Players: James, Corey, Ben
Match #1 - 8bc v MP
8BC[as mentioned above] been having a rough time, started well, lost last week, and today missed 2 ipa players, and lost the match, I feel bad for them. But they have done well even after Andrew dissapeared, atx david took his place as captain and did a very nice job. So I hope this room issue gets fixed soon and 8bc get their members back and kick some more azz. Jlips on the other hand apparently will not sign MP in UIC, well atleast what I heard from left n right. But today is money for MP. Since 8bc is weaker this week, MP should take prior advantage and destroy 8bc . But who knows what is going on in Atx David's mind...
Score: MP 3-2
March #2 - X8B v EPC
After a great match with 8bc this past week, X8B come face to face against EPC. They might make fun of us and say we'rer garbage and that they will own us, but don't underestimate us. We're impoving slowly, not bragging or anything, just stating facts. Now X8B has very good players, like Stephen, Ben, Eric, Conor, James, etc, etc. But today it will come down to who wants the win more and not who is stronger. EPC wants this win and NEEDS it just like he NEEDED the win in IPA vs SS. We want a shot at the playoffs in both interleagues we participate in, so X8B, prepare for a hell of a battle! ;)
Score: X8B 3-2
Match #3 - PDZ v RM
PDZ lg activity has dropped and their good players seem to be ''occupied'' somewhat. They did not show up, we hope they do tonight. RM seem to have given up already, abit too early in the season, but whatever. Both these teams no showed last week, hopefully 1 will show ''atleast'' tonight and get timer on the other. I vote for PDZ, RM dont really care anyways.
Score: PDZ 5-0 (If Rm shows then RM 3-2?)
Match #4 - CM vs UO
CM is lookin hot peeps, they hit 50 trnys few days ago, league activity rising, getting new players[red_taz is one], and kicking ass. This week they will do no different. No offense but UO are week! Sorry to say that but they were better with PDZ, didnt have to leave them and make own league. I mean, why make a new league if you will have same players.
Score: CM 5-0!
KBP vs GR
Tami is on her own this week, I mean there's no Drew. Tami will capt I think. Hope all goes well with them and they get a good full team. Last week they lost vs CM, tough loss, now they are outside and watching the inside, EPC bounced up and left KBP 5th. A good chance to get back up the notch this week as GR is the weaker team. But hey, like M/p said, Tim (dope.skill) is gonna capt them from now on now that JEN N resigned or idk what. So ya, keep an eye on GR this week, lets see what Tim can really do!
Score: BKP 3-2!
WELL THERE THEY ARE, BEEN WORKING ON THEM SINCE THURSDAY, TOOK ME FUKIN LONG, I THOUGHT I'D MAKE UP FORTHE WEEKS I DID SHITTY PREDS, HOPE U ALL ENJOY, HAPPY READING AND HAPPY POOLING! GL IN MATCHES ALL ;)
