Blind GM Test (Championship Edition)

Post by Bowtothebill23 »

So a couple of weeks ago, a couple of us were talking about where we rank some long-time GMs on an all-time list. This is not that list. But I had been doing a bit of research and I don't really have an article idea so I figured I'd let people see how well they really knew the accomplishments of some fellow GMs. So in this edition, I took some key stats from every GM who has won a championship: all-time win %, playoff appearances (this is our 25th season), playoff series wins, and division titles. You'll notice I left out championships. That's just because it'd be too easy to guess which GM is which if you saw how many championships they had.

With that said, here are the Championship-winning GMs in alphabetical order:
Aburns
Balls
Bow
Conroy
Darth
Eazy
GMessi
Inner
Nola.
Quail
Sound
Syndicate
Wig

Here are the stats in order of all-time win %:

A: 61.9% win %, 19 playoff appearances, 33 playoff series wins, 12 division titles
B: 61.7% win %, 19 playoff appearances, 27 playoff series wins, 6 division titles
C: 59.5% win %, 19 playoff appearances, 20 playoff series wins, 10 division titles
D: 57.5% win%, 19 playoff appearances, 26 playoff series wins, 9 division titles
E: 56.6% win %, 15 playoff appearances, 25 playoff series wins, 5 division titles
F: 56% win%, 10 playoff appearances, 12 playoff series wins, 2 division titles
G: 53.6% win %, 18 playoff appearances, 17 playoff series wins, 3 division titles
H: 53.2% win%, 12 playoff appearances, 20 playoff series wins, 7 division titles
I: 52.7% win%, 16 playoff appearances, 16 playoff series wins, 1 division title
J: 51.1% win %, 16 playoff appearances, 23 playoff series wins, 6 division titles
K: 48% win%, 13 playoff appearances, 14 playoff series wins, 4 division titles
L: 46.6% win %, 9 playoff appearances, 6 playoff series wins, 1 division title
M: 45.2% win%, 10 playoff appearances, 8 playoff series wins, 2 division titles


See how many y'all can get right. Don't cheat. I'll try to do another one for GMs without a title yet.

You got 6 as well, but this was the closest to being right. Just a couple that you put back to back that are flipped.

Sure - and just forget my first 4 seasons while I was crawling out from a shitty situation too. (like a 55% GM without those)

What my results on that list tells me is that there are a number of GMs that I am guilty of underrating.
