Also also, I appreciate the graphs use the correct colours for Cézembre, Benito and Atatürk

Pretty much all of the color choices are intended to be accurate in some sense.

Ataturk: Bicoloreu Red
Benito: Bicoloreu Green
Cezembre: Black, from their flag
Cjovani: Scarlet, one of the colors of an Ohio State University yeah I went there, Go Badgers
Fiova: the darker shade of green from the provincial flag
Florencia: blue from flag
Maricopa: orange from flag
M-M: teal from flag
Pengopats: Silver, because pure white to represent snow made the graph look weird.
Vuode: Sort of a "royal" purple, the RGB average of Bicoloreu Red and Florencia Blue

Week 13

Aquilăs da Benito 39 – 1 Pastours da Florencia
Canards da Cézembre 23 – 16 Capitais d'Atatürk
Escunăs da Maritiimi-Maxhestic 21 – 13 Repúblicánistaes da Fiôvâ
Rexhitaes da Vuode 15 – 23 Squilats da Cjovaní

Interesting tidbits:

• Vuode is eliminated from winning the North Division. Benito can finish no worse than fourth in the division.
• If Atatürk has a better result than Vuode next week, Vuode will be incapable of finishing higher than third in the North Division. Atatürk will be guaranteed to finish no worse than fourth in the division.
• If Cézembre does not win in regulation next week, they will be eliminated from winning the North Division, meaning Benito will be incapable of finishing worse than fourth in the division and will have secured a playoff spot.
• If either Péngöpäts, Maricopa, or Fiôvâ fail to win in regulation next week, that team will be eliminated from winning the South Division, guaranteeing Maritiimi-Maxhestic finishes no worse than fourth in the division. If two of the three fail to win in regulation, M-M will finish no worse than third in the division, securing a playoff spot. If all three fail to win in regulation time, las Escunăs will be guaranteed to finish no worse than second in the division, thereby securing both a playoff spot and home-field advantage in the quarterfinals.
• Benito, Maritiimi-Maxhestic, and Péngöpäts are currently tied as the favorites to make the playoffs; M-M is the favorite to  make the semifinals, make the final, and win the championship.

Escunăs da Maritiimi-Maxhestic 21 – 15 Capitais d'Atatürk

Interesting tidbits:

• No North Division teams won this week.
• Benito's winning streak ends at seven games with a crushing defeat at the hands of Péngöpäts.
• Benito and Maritiimi-Maxhestic have secured playoff spots. Maritiimi-Maxhestic can finish no worse than second in the South Division, meaning they are guaranteed home field in the quarterfinal.
• Atatürk, Cézembre, Florencia, and Péngöpäts can each secure playoff spots next week if they do not lose their respective games in regulation time. It should be noted that Florencia and Péngöpäts play each other -- and Cézembre does not play at all.
• Atatürk and Cézembre will secure playoff spots if Vuode does not win in regulation.
• Florencia and Péngöpäts will secure playoff spots if Fiôvâ does not win in regulation.

Squilats da Cjovaní 10 – 19 Escunăs da Maritiimi-Maxhestic

Interesting tidbits:

• Maritiimi-Maxhestic has clinched the regular-season championship for the AFT.
• Atatürk wins the North Division.
• Florencia, Cjovaní, Maricopa, and Vuode have secured the remaining playoff spots.
• I did not jinx Florencia last week.
• Despite technically finishing last in the North Division on tiebreakers, Vuode earns the higher Wild Card spot (also on tiebreakers), meaning they finished above a team in the Wild Card standings that they finished behind in their own division. Désolés, mes amis Cézembriens.

The AFT has brought together Talossans in a way I did not anticipate -- we can all say we've been bested at our own game by a bunch of penguins.
I'd say "don't that just beat all", but I guess they did, so...
