I've figured out the Otter League logic puzzle.

As for the badger complex, I know who all the upstairs tenants and all the downstairs tenants.  I know the upstairs/downstairs pairings of three of the matchups.  However, with the clues given I cannot pair off the other 3 matchups.   I know the favorite player of 8 of the 12 tenants.

Am I missing something in the clues that signifies which "J" WR player [member=2226]Mel[/member] and [member=414]karatekid[/member] actually has?

As for assigning which QB to Sassasfrass and Mel.I.Am its another toss up.

Wow! I didn't think anyone would actually try to solve it :) When I was at the end of it, there were still 3 ambiguities I had to resolve, and those you listed were the last two. I left my notes at home, so I could be wrong, but I think "The favorite players have the same number of characters in their name in only one unit" comes into play for one of those. (I could also have made a mistake of course.)

Alright, I went through the clue one more time and figured out who Alyssa played in the Badgers league, so I know 4 of the 6 matchups now.

The only ambiguities I have left:

Which "J" WR Mel and Karate Kid had?
Who did Mark and MickeyJack3 face off against (between Mel and Karate Kid)?
Which QB SassaFrass and Mel.I.AM had (both are from Cali).


I tried to go back through the thread to gleam any hints from comments or week 1's recap.  No luck.

I think I did make a mistake with the QBs for sassafrass and Mel.I.Am. Somehow I didn't have Rivers being from California, not to mention I misspelled his name. Weird mental block on my part.

Maybe I should add that only one upstairs occupant has a favorite player from an L.A. team?

I think the other stuff is ok.

My previous comment was wrong, I have my scratch notes in hand now and [member=4351]corgikohmander[/member] called it perfectly, I did leave two ambiguities. I have added 2 more rules to the original post, there are more redundancies now alas but it should be solvable.

These were:

Only one upstairs occupant has a favorite player from an L.A. team
Mel's favorite player is a Bear. Unfortunately the person upstairs from her snores like one.

(The second part of that last one is true, but only sometimes.)

Still, props to corgikohmander for solving what could be solved, it's even more impressive that he completely identified my mistakes, so a special prize for him! That's 2 special prizes in 2 weeks, better up my game here.

Just reading it hurt my brain. All respect to Corgi for solving it!

Surprisingly good game between the Rams and the 49ers last night, seems like the Rams strategy of blinding their opponents with those bright yellow uniforms didn't work. Likewise my strategy of playing the Rams DST and Cooper Kupp against [member=2125]mickeyjack3[/member] . Lots of empty seats at Levi stadium apparently.

Also, our dog has decided he needs to bark at the refs when they make an announcement, men ... all the same.

There's a lot of (fantasy) football left to be played this week yet.

Aww man I feel you on the Cooper Kupp lineup.  I just put him in there temporarily (in another league) because Kelvin Benjamin was questionable and i moved him out in every league but that one.  But like MJ said there's still a lot of Foosball to be had as Mama Bouche would say.  (Look it up kids)

WEEK 3 RECAP: Lame edition (hence the color)

First things first, mis compadres. It is imperative that we crush the freedom fighters before the start of the rainy season. And remember! A shiny new donkey for whomever brings me the head of Colonel Mon... oops, I have been informed that I am reading the wrong speech, heh-he. Moving on.

No theme this week, but if there was it should be "How to Get Away with Murder." Some of us, myself included, got absolutely slaughtered. Four undefeated teams overall, Gavin and [member=4351]corgikohmander[/member] in the otters and  [member=2125]mickeyjack3[/member] and @Cut That Meat in the badgers.

Good luck to all in week 4!!! Packers versus da Bears tonight! I'll be at the movies surreptitiously checking my phone.

Week 5 starts in a bit with the Pats v the Buccaneers! The regular bye weeks start this week too so be careful.  [member=4351]corgikohmander[/member] , Gavin, [member=2125]mickeyjack3[/member] and [member=3450]Cut That Meat[/member] are still undefeated, hmpf.

Good luck to all, and to our friends at NYCC: have fun, be safe and make the rest of us jealous :)

There are a few matchups still to be determined tonight, but there's a strong possibility that all of the 4-0 teams will have their first loss. Not to mention the new Star Wars trailer during the game (and tickets going on sale.)
