Congratulations to the winner, mh.3.9!
mh.3.9 and his captain Flash crushed the dreams of IntoTheWow on tiebreakers winning on the back of the KT / Flash / ZerO combination and only four trades. Luckily, post count is no tiebreaker as the 0 post mh.3.9 bested the 25000+ post forum veteran IntoTheWow and the tiebreaker it did come down to was the Captain with mh.3.9's
Flash towering over IntoTheWow's 
Movie. Competition was fierce this round with a staggering 1800+ entries and the top five seperated by fewer than five points.Final Top 10

Owner Awards
The "Boxer" Award for best Repeat Performance
Easily goes to DalaiLameR who managed to improve on his Fifth place last season with a stunning Third place finish falling only a few points short of first place. Honorable mention to IntoTheWow, Hot_Bid and Samurai- who also made returns to the Top Ten after finishing there in previous seasons.
The "Savior" Award for Best Slump Predictor
Belongs to our champion mh.3.9 who coasted through the competition with a low anti-team score despite no anti-team trades. Honorable mention to 12th placed RecYouGood who also managed to keep his anti-team low after a team saving trade which involved offloading
free for his lesser skilled protoss pal GuemChi.The "Wall Street" Award for Best Trader
In a record breaking trade gain (for a top ten finisher) both ThePUNisher and IntoTheWow crushed the pizzown's previous record of +54 with huge gains of +77 and +75 respectively.
The "KTF" Award for Worst Trader
While there are significantly worse traders (like a certain pachi who traded away ZerO and Woongjin Stars), the award must go to DalaiLameR who traded away (coincidently) KT Rolster for CJ Entus in the panic week where they didn't play which ultimately cost him the FPL crown.
The "Nal_Rock" Award for Refusing to Change Anything
Is awarded to abomi.nation who managed a clean #31 finish with his stubborness.
The "Hite Sparkyz" Award for Biggest Surprise Team
Goes to MBCGame HERO who despite a second place finish in total points for a low low cost of 3 at the start of the season, had fewer than 30 owners. Other mentions include Woongjin Stars who rebounded after a slow start and WeMade FOX which shone throughout the early weeks of the season.
The "LeBron" Award for Best Rookie
In a top ten of old returning players, KP_CollectoR interviewed earlier in the season for his stubborness to trades, managed to finish fourth in his first venture into fantasy proleagueing with an honorable mention to Neptuneajax who finished in the Top 10 at 7th in his first season.
The "Manifesto7" Award for Best Staff Performance
Is awarded to Fantasy Proleague kingpin, Hot_Bid who managed a Top 10 finish despite being pressured by various other staff like his sidekick Abydos1 who finished at #20.
The "Kennigit" Award for Worst Staff Performance
Goes to CENSORED, who apparently didn't try and totally does not deserve a mention in this newspost. Instead I will use this space to again mention how heartbroken IntoTheWow should be for his loss on tiebreakers.
Thanks to everyone for participating, and I hope you guys had fun!
Sadly, the current scoring system will be retired for next season. So make sure to read the new scoring system carefully and maybe you can exploit your way into the Top 10!
