League Season 2 Awards

Though Cogs is hardly a west team anymore!

Absolutely, take us out of that darned category.

fine emmet, will do.

i was saying do we need a vote for best team of the west? as i believe the game results show that, so we dont need poll results.

but its different if its a vote of best player of the west.

sorry if i confused you!

Maybe we can vote for our top 3 choices for MVP? To get a better selection of players?

+1 on being able to vote three people. There are too many to choose just one.

Who suggested voting for best of west? I don't think anyone did. I think it should just go on results.

you can't vote for yourself three times.

But if I don't, who will?

...

I can look into setting up a google form for people to vote through.

I'm nearly done on the google form, Will get something up later today if those questions are pretty much set.

thanks for this Gabes!!

It was on the list of the things you were writing a voting thing for!

so i was just saying we didnt need it :) BUT if it was best player of the west, we do!

Best player of west doesn't need to be voted either.
Louis ftw!

Is the 'Most improved player' the player who improved the most during this season of the league - i think that is what we did last year?

yes, it's not restrictive to new players only, it can be any player.

most improved can be anyone, even horatio, 'rookie' is someone who is new to polo this season.

for suggesting the first i nominate you in the second.

is MVP the best player, or the most valuable player to a team?

MostValuablePlayer as in the player you think makes the most difference I guess. The best player is ... i dont suppose it matters, they are the same to me.

for sure the MVP will be the most valuable player for his team

yes its the most valuable player 'in the league' though. not just someones team.

Yeah otherwise you could say Louis was mvp.

Gonna give you my tuppence on MVP, you usually get two, most valuable player in the league, loosely defined as the player without whom their team would not be much cop, scores most, assists most, defends most. Usually in American sports you'll have an award for each of those catergories and then an overall, this is usually the player that means the most to their team, without whom the team would struggle to be as good/competitive as they are, and who you could draft into any team and they would be better instantly. Then you've got the MVP of a game, tournament which is just the player who has done the most in helping the team to win said game or tournament, whether it's goalie keeping games close by saving anything and everything, player scoring lots of winning goals, or someone providing lots of assists.
Voting for an MVP is usually stat based, so arguments can be made for and against with some statistical reference to back up your point of view, otherwise it becomes fairly subjective, though it still does in the states even with the stats to back them up.
So what I'm trying to say in a kinda long winded way is if you have an MVP award the player who should win it should be the one that you believe for that season every team would want to have playing for them, because they give them best chance of winning.

Hope that makes sense, I'll go back to lurking in the football thread and eating copious amounts of empanada's.

Ps Brendan email coming your way..
