More controversy! More split titles!!!

WG_Dawg = BCS title holder of the 2011 SEC Rant ATS Competition
Wolfpacleader & Emergent C Steve = AP title holders of the 2011 SEC Rant ATS Competition ( LINK)

Sunday night I was browsing over some old posts when I noticed that LSU Tigerhead had caught an error of mine. It seems that I made a spreadsheet error in Week 4. My best guess is that I just took that week's tally and just skipped the first entry in the list (WG_Dawg, 3-0) and started on the second entry for some reason. However it happened, I left a 0-0 entry for WG_Dawg in the Week 4 column.

Looking over the entire Top 20, there was only one other mistake like that which I made--I also blanked out on Alahunter's 2-1 score for Week 8 for some reason. Whatever.

I feel like WG_Dawg deserves his due as the poster with the best record, while at the same time, I feel like the other 2 winners also deserve to be called winners because everybody made adjustments based on the Leader Board standings for the last couple of weeks.

For example, WG_Dawg himself wrote, "I hate making this many picks but I don't have a choice if I want to win, assuming first place doesn't make any picks this week." In other words, it looks like I screwed up everything.

Oh well, life goes on, and thankfully no actual money was put on the line here.

My apologies to all 3 parties involved.

I think Chicken and Circus Child need to implement a fool-proof version of this competition next fall so I don't have to worry about making any more clerical errors.
