For those who want to taunt me in the future, this is my general preference of SAS finishes:
1) First place, all streaks, for 35M
2) Second place, all streaks, for 35M (Where SAS finished)
3) First place, all streaks, for 60M
4) Third place, all streaks, for 35M
5) First place, no streaks, for 35M
6) Second place, no streaks, for 35M
7) Third place, no streaks, for 21M (where SC finished)
8) First place, no streaks, for 60M (where TAW finished)
If you think all that goes into our strategy is "low levels and tap real fast" then I suppose you should just go on believing it. But our actual strategies and the remarkable dedication of our members is what actually allows us to go undefeated. We beat TAW three times, beat SC three times, beat LOC three times, and I believe every other team in the top ten at least once or more.
I also believe SAS is the only team in the top 10/top 25 who have completed the streak goals every single time. If you can name another one, please correct me.
Regarding the lead over third, it isn't like TAW and SAS agreed that the first team to 100K would win and we would both stand down. I think those three fights counted for at least 10m of our IP. Go look at what the last few LTQs cost. Second place and all streak prizes for an average of 5-6 vaults per person (not accounting for bonus program) is actually not bad.
And as spartacus once said... Can you really put a price on fun?
