113milesprower Ballot for 2018 Week 4
Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Sept. 17, 2018, 11 p.m.
Overall Rationale: My poll is a resume based, backward looking poll. It isn't meant to predict who will win, or who would beat who next week. It is meant to show who has accomplished the most in the season to date. Also, in general, if you are undefeated you are much more likely to be placed over someone that has a loss. Don't be too concerned, the good teams will keep winning and the bad teams won't. I would also like to work on assigning points for wins in the future to take some of the subjectivity out of it, but I'm still working on that. pm me or call me out in the thread if you think I fucked something up. This first ballot is going to be gross, it should work itself out as the season progresses. Don't hate me too much.
