> All,
> 
> All of the makeup matches were played and we officially closed out the Spring 2012 session.
> 
> The rankings are posted on

> 
> There were ties for 3rd place and for 6th place.  The prize money for 3rd and 4th place will be combined and divided by two and shared between teams 1 and 7.  The prize money for 6th and 7th place will be combined and divided by two and shared between teams 4 and 9.
> 
> When ranking teams for the play off bracket, the teams that were tied for 6th place had their previous direct matchups compared.  This had the result of seeding team 9 (8 wins) in the 6th seed bracket and team 4 (2 wins) in the 7th.
> 
> When attempting to rank the teams tied for 3rd place, things weren't as easy.  Both teams 1 and 7 had the same number of wins versus each other in regular season play (5 wins and 5 wins).  The Argonne Pool League rules state when this happens, "the seeding position will be determined by a coin toss".  So, before we start tournament play next Tuesday, we are going to have to flip a coin to see who gets the 3rd place berth and who gets the 4th place berth. 
> 
> The schedule for the next three weeks is as follows:
> 
> April 10:
> 1st night of playoffs; best of five determines the winner; all playing members pay $6
> 
> April 17:
> 2nd night of playoffs; best of five determines the winner; all playing members pay $6
> 
> April 24:
> 3rd night of playoffs; best of five determines the winner; Banquet; no one pays ; prize money handed out
> 
> I will actively be recruiting new players for the Fall 2012 session.  So, if you need people, let me know how many.
