2-0 at home before halftime… and actually 3-0 as of typing this. russell martin needs to fucking go

According to the timer, the league is going to end tomorrow or Friday instead of Sunday at 11:00 PM like it normally does for my time zone. There are also only 15 people here instead of 20. Does anyone know what's going on?

so i'm assuming almost everyone here has dealt with wait times like the M train in the picture before. because trains have AC and the stations do not, these long waits can be brutal especially in the summer. here's my tactic to beat the heat using something I call the "Nabbit Transfer" (named after myself, because I am guilty of some egregious examples). let's say i need to get from 66th street on the 1 to 96th street on the Q. the 1 train ride goes as normal and i arrive at times square just to see that the next Q train is in 12 minutes. now there is an R train in 5 minutes that i can take to 57th street where i can then catch the same physical Q train. by taking the R train from 42nd to 57th, you are splitting a 12 minute wait into two smaller waits of 5 and 6 minutes, something that can be very useful during the summer to keep your sanity. Now I mentioned I call that a Nabbit Transfer because I am guilty of some egregious examples. once i had to take a Q train from 14th street to 96th street, and the next Q train was in 13 minutes, so i did what any normal person (just kidding) would do and took an R train arriving in 2 minutes to 34th street, then took an uptown D train arriving in 2 minutes at 34th to 42nd, then took an uptown F that was 1 minute away to 47-50th, where i waited 2 minutes for an uptown M to lex-63rd, where i finally only waited 1 minute for the exact same physical Q train that i would have been on had i just waited 13 minutes at union square. because the R/D/F/M combo makes less total stops (23rd, 28th, and 47-50th) i was also able to reduce my total wait time from 13 minutes to 8 minutes. have any of you guys done similarly egregious nabbit transfers? lmk in the comments.
