ToC projection update:
With a projected 74 regular-play games to go prior to the Tournament of Champions cutoff, after 250,000 simulations, our model shows:
An average of 3.5952 5+-time champions (standard deviation 1.2659).
An average of 5.0268 4+-time champions (standard deviation 1.5472).
An early cutoff took place 22.852% of the time (or a 5-game winner will be left out).
Tim Kutz qualified 46.168% of the time.
Todd Giese qualified 11.310% of the time.
Rob Liguori qualified 1.718% of the time.
Fred Vaughn qualified 0.176% of the time.
(Note: Due to the possibility of a WGA strike, I feel that it is more accurate for ToC projections to add 20 games to the end of the previous projected qualifying period.)
