Hi Chase,

Yeah I think I did – I went (no spaces) – put the text in and then ? I like the preview thing though, that really helped on the second post (just to make sure that it was more readable).

Re: the model, I totally changed it up to include every game (as it just felt more right). 1 – 10,000 row data table per teams wins, takes my iMac around 6 minutes to calculate. I only thought about it last night, that I could put division tables in, did so this afternoon but have not figured out the formulas to enforce the tiebrakers. Once I have that solved (I have an Excel forum that I bounce things around in – that I think will assist me with this), I have a play-off model that works (my figures were within about 1% of the figures Wayne Winston posted last year and I know he was using the @Risk add-in, and I also only went 5,000 rows on the play-off model which I think would account for the difference) – I think I can simulate the whole season out (every week and track the difference). If that makes sense? – it’s just going to be a case of sorting the seeds out from the regular season and feeding them in. All good fun.
