As I like to say, if you can score 100 pts but only manage 80 in a GW, even if the top10k average is 30, it is still 20 pts wasted (it's the same than scoring 10 pts instead of 30 in a GW where the average would be 15pts for example) so you're not on for such a great GW IMO. There are not that many opportunities to catch up or break free so when you/we can do it, you/we better do itAnyway, don't want to sound like bitching for nothing but I always felt that these averages only show part of the real story. We all have different teams and some GWs suit them better than others. To perform, I feel we have to capitalise on our favourable ones and minimise the losses on the unfavourable ones. THis one (a posteriori) looked favourable to my team

but Kane (C) fail made it a just above average one. Of course it could have been much worse but in the end I see it as a wasted opportunity. Not the end of the world but a bit raging in the meantime. 0 -

You moved up 40k its a big jump when you were already in the 200ks. A 40k jump for someone outside the top million isnt the same. You have gained points on the other 19 players in the FSA premier all players with a good history in the game. Most of us also captained kane so we are all in the same boat there. You also got souare in for Kolarov. A lot of us wouldnt have got a clean sheet coming off the bench for kolorav. Your 4th midfielder delefeou outperformed a lot of other teams 4th mid barkley/coutinho.0 -

Top10k average is 62.9. I got 67 pts.
So in a GW where I got 14 pts from my Palace duo at the back (won't happen often in the season) including a lucky escape 6 pts autosub for Kolarov, where most expected CS did not happen (United/Spurs/'Pool) and where my 4th mid outscored or matched most other big guns, I only gained 4.1 pts over competitive teams ?!!?!!
It's better than nothing alright but in my bad GWs I lost a lot more than 4.1 average pts over top10k. Hence my "disappointment". 0 -

As you can see most of us are deeply affected by your 'disappointment' at a 40k rise in OR to the zone of despair that is just outside the top 200k. We are concerned you may never recover and be cast into deep depression by this cruel blow. We would like to offer our collective shoulder for you to cry on until you feel a bit better and able to face day to day life again.
Even those of us who dropped 100k in OR this week and almost 400k in the last 2 weeks and find ourselves in the nether regions of high 600k.
We feel your pain iroced. Be strong mon ami. This too will pass.

Ahah touché :P. I guess the correct phrasing for me here is "explaining is digging" :pac:.As you can see most of us are deeply affected by your 'disappointment' at a 40k rise in OR to the zone of despair that is just outside the top 200k.

Probably not the right GW to explain my controversial theory of mine but like Busts and his pts hits theory, I'm sticking to my guns here (whether you score a glorious 150 pts or a miserable 15 doesn't make any difference on you missing out on 5, 10, 15 or more pts from a 50/50 choice).0 -
