Re: E90-1, The Kraken (AKA The E-Monster) - post your collection progress
The latest revision brings me up to 190, if my math is correct. Perhaps someone would be kind enough to double check for me. I lack Jackson, Keeler (throwing), McLean, Miller (no sunset). O'Connor, Richie, Sheckard, Stahl, Stovall, both Wagners and both Youngs.

I Suck
All I can say is I suck. Frank will probably bust a gut laughing after seeing all the changes I have made to the Kraken (because of my foolhardiness) whilst his T206 Monster has been clean and pristine from the get go.
Here is the bad news...I was just about to tally up edhans total and I saw that at some point I accidently removed Cy Young (Cleveland) from my point list. The other Brian (the guy who movitated me to create this thing) pointed out in post #43 that my point total only came up to 244 points, not 250. Why that happened is that when I updated the points I accidentally left off Cy Young (Cleveland) which I valued in my previous point system at 7. Dropping him off essentially left him at a point value of 1, thus creating that 6 point spread. I subsquentially bumped up the value of Bemis, O'Connor and Seigle to 3 (from 1 point) to get things back to the 250 total value. Here is our dilemma...what to do. I drop down to my knees and beg your forgiveness, and present two options: 1. Assign the re-instituted Cy Young (Cleveland) a 7 point value, and drop the Bemis, O'Connor and Seigle from 3 points to 1 point, giving us 250 points. 2. Assign the reinstituted Cy Young (Cleveland) a 5 point value, and drop two 3 pointers back to 1 point status, giving us 250 points. Man I really screwed things up by leaving that Young off...please don't put me on your naughty list this Christmas season, and I will heed any suggestions you might fling my way, including those involving punishment involving a wet noodle.

Make Young Cleveland 10 points and call 260 the set. Just a suggestion.

Right now, as the listing in your original post stands, you have 122 cards, with a total of 255 points. That's one too many cards, and 5 too many points.

Here is edhans point total, somebody (please!) check my work:
Lacking... Jackson -20 Keeler (throwing) -3 McLean -3 Miller (no sunset) -1 O'Connor -1 Richie -1 Sheckard -1 Stahl -5 Stovall -1 Wagner (batting) -7 Wagner (throwing) -10 Young (Boston) - 4 Young (Cleveland) -7 250 points minus 64 points equals 186 points.

OK, if the only change was to elevate Cy Young (Cleveland) from 1 to 10 points, the total now stands at 259. This is due to there being 85 one-point cards before, instead of 86.
Here's my math (from the op, as revised at 8:20: 1 x 20 = 20 3 x 10 = 30 3 x 7 = 21 6 x 5 = 30 4 x 4 = 16 19 x 3 = 57 85 x 1 = 85 --------------- 121 cards 259 points Steve

Dammit! Thanks Steve for making my head burst into a million particles of tiny shame. You are absolutely correct. I officially make you my double-checking right hand man, because the fellow typing this sentence obviously should not be in accounting.
Here is what I have to offer now, which is what I originally came up with but accidentally eliminated Cy Cleve from the list, causing this whirl of blunderbusses. Please note that besides Cy (Cleveland) now being 7 points, I have downgraded Bemis, O'Connor and Seigle from 3 points back to 1 point each. 20 Joe Jackson 10 Tris Speaker 10 Honus Wagner (throwing) 7 Hugh Duffy 7 Mike Mitchell 7 Honus Wagner (batting) 7 Cy Young (Cleveland) 5 Fred Clarke (Pittsburgh) 5 Ty Cobb 5 Willie Keeler (red background) 5 Jake Stahl 5 Bill Sweeney (Boston) 5 Ed Walsh 4 Peaches Graham 4 Christy Mathewson 4 Eddie Plank 4 Cy Young (Boston) 3 Bob Bescher 3 Patsy Dougherty 3 George Gibson (back) 3 Harry Howell (wind up) 3 Ed Karger 3 Willie Keeler (throwing) 3 Addie Joss (throwing) 3 Nap Lajoie 3 Tommy Leach (throwing) 3 Hans Lobert 3 Larry McLean 3 Dots Miller (sunset) 3 Orval Overall 3 Dave Shean 3 George Stone (left hand showing) 3 Jerry Upp 1 each for the rest of the 88 cards A complete set of 121 would thus be 250 points And here is a breakdown of each point level: 1 x 20 = 20 2 x 10 = 20 4 x 7 = 28 6 x 5 = 30 4 x 4 = 16 16 x 3 = 48 88 x 1 = 88 --------------- 121 cards 250 points Am I right? If so, let's put me out of my misery. Brian Last edited by brianp-beme; 12-04-2017 at 09:00 PM. |

I apologize for causing so much grief Brian.
If it's any consolation, I agree with your calculations in your latest post. I think we can finally set this in concrete Steve

Kraken abacus
The abacus was easy to edit, I just changed a couple cells to reflect the final (?) scoring weights.
The hard part was having to reduce my number by 6 full points because I had all three of the players that were downgraded : So put me down for 104. Also please do email me for a version of the abacus if you’d like...

Frank, the Kraken, within its watery environment, is a force to be reckoned with, and I believe Leon has succumbed to its power of liquid persuasion.
Perhaps the fine people of Japan should begin producing movies featuring these fiery combatants...T-Monster vs. the E-Monster. Brian |

It is a MS Excel file, and it has formulae built in to do all the work...if you can host the excel file that would be ideal. A picture would just give anyone interested an idea of what it looks like. The file calculates both the Kraken number and the Set number...as if anyone would calculate their E90-1 set progress the "old" way....

Kraken up
Jess Tannehill added today, another low grade gem that provides a see through hole in the jersey.
I have both Tannehill players now after confusing who was who... But the most important part is that i’ll be ending the 2017 calendar year with a Kraken number of 110. I’ll get more next year!

The Kraken monthly flow
Being that the E90-1 collecting base is nowhere as large as that of the T206, I have decided that I would give this thread a bump every month or so if no activity as a reminder to all who do collect it or are interested. The Monster needs no provoking, while the Kraken quite often reacts when poked with a pointy stick

Thanks Patrick for posting the link to your E90-1 plate scratch album. It is nice to know that other sets than T206 suffered from these potential sheet arrangement markings. Someday I will check my other cards to see if I have any others...maybe eventually someone can put things together and figure out card placement/printing patterns.

Big bump
Brian,
I jumped up 9 points with two cards this week. Ty Cobb and Peaches Graham bring me to 119. I might still have a few more points in me this spring...I might even take some pics for the rogues gallery since my set is primarily pretty low grade. Holes in the cards are much more tolerable than holes in the wantlist

Just thought I would throw a little McIntyre into this thread gumbo. Also a little reminder for judsonhamlin, cozumeleno and fistner10...the point system was updated (see post #1, ignore all the frantic point jumbling posts afterwards) and still need updated point amounts from you all so I can remove (parenthetical) comments after your point total on the master Kraken list.
