Here's my attempt at a brief synopsis (but don't guarantee this to be 100% accurate):
- Hootie notices that the people winning big on Fanduel are submitting a large number of varied lineups rather than just doing 1-2 per week and suggests to the forum that a bunch of guys pool their money and cooperate on their picks. 50 guys pitch in $100 each to join.
- Rather than take their time to develop a real strategy, Hootie kind of went all LLEEEROOOYYYY JEEENNNNKINS the first week and lost 2/3rds of what they started with.
- At some point, other members get pissed that Hootie's just doing it all rather than cooperating and boot him out of a leadership role. Hootie posts the other thread in the Lounge to complain about it. Somewhere in here, Hootie is also a dick to Flopnuts to the point that he gets banned for the 5719th time. There was some other drama here, but it's all a bit fuzzy what really went down. EDIT: He also broke some sort of rule that everyone agreed upon from the beginning.
The end.
