TimeBroken Ballot for 2025 Week 4
Ballot Type: Hybrid
Submitted: Sept. 14, 2025, 1:32 p.m.
Overall Rationale: I've created a predictive computer ranking system that I use for my base results. I've been continually upgrading and adjusting it for 4 years now. I still include a human touch to the results, to ensure "intangibles" are able to be accounted for. The computer rankings are super reactive this early in the year, so I'll be tweaking things manually a good deal at the start.
