CP $100 Fantasy Football League (Update to other thread with rules in thread starter)

[doomy3]

Alright guys, here is a new thread for the CP $100 Fantasy Football League. The settings are listed below.


Buy-In will be $100 and will be due 1 week before the draft. Please get your payments in earlier than that though, so we can have the draft order generated. I will not have draft order generated before everyone has paid. We will be using Paypal for payments. I have sent payment instructions out to everyone, so please start getting this paid. If you need the instructions again, please let me know.


As soon as everyone has paid, we will have a draft order generated by using a random order generator online (we used one of these last year, and it worked great). Everyone's emails are entered into the system, and everyone receives the email with the draft order direct from the website, so it is fair to everyone.

I will allow the trading of draft picks as well, and ESPN is set up for such.

Now, please send me some entry fees, and let's get this going.

alright, count me in...the scoring is good enough where I will suck it up and not complain about it being a 1 QB league.

A fantasy coach?

JFC.

[blazzin311]

Sweet! All sounds good to me. I do have one question...what site are we going to be using for this?

[CoMoChief]

A fantasy coach?

I've never seen that in ANY fantasy league I've seen. I've seen as far as a single defensive player, which is somewhat common, but a coach? hmmm, dunno about that one.

Nzoner was talking about it...

It's just like predicting who's going to win one week and getting 5 points...oh well. I'm neither for or against it...seems basically irrelevant.

[MahiMike]

Interested pending answers to these questions:

1) Is it a max of 8 combined RB's and WR's?
2) 17 rounds of drafting, right? 11 starters, 6 bench
3) You've got some strange point calcs in here (40+ yd td pass), etc. Is that programmable in the software or a manual deal?
4) What's you I/R rule (if any)?
5) When is playoffs and how many make it in?

Thanks

1) No, it is a max of 8 RBs and a max of 8 WRs
2) Yes
3) Yes, that is a setting in ESPN, so it automatically calculates this
5) No IR
6) 4 teams make the playoffs. Playoffs start week 13. There are 2 rounds of playoffs, each lasting 2 weeks. So, first round is weeks 13 and 14 and the second round is weeks 15 and 16. Nothing in week 17.

It was just something that nzoner brought up in our other thread and some people thought it was a cool twist. Really don't understand what the big deal is about it. We're talking about 5 points a week max just to decide who is going to win one game. Doesn't seem like a big deal to me either way.

[Short Leash Hootie]

lets assume we get 12 teams...

12 teams = $1200 prize pool

payouts should be like this (IMO):

League Champ: $600
Runner-up: $300

1st place (all 16 weeks) in total points scored: $300

or

League Champ: $400
Runner-up: $200
3rd place: $100

1st in points (16): $300
2nd in points (16): $200

Rules look like fun for the most part. I have no problem with a fantasy coach, in fact I like the idea. The kicker rules look pretty brutal, though. Kickers don't score much to begin with. I'm thinking about this one...

One thought on the payouts: Option 2 looks a little better, but probably needs the "points" categories shaved a little and put into the "League Champ" payout. I'm of the belief that no combination of events should result in anybody getting paid more than the champ.

[Short Leash Hootie]

I just kind of disagree...

since the majority of the time the league champion isn't the best team...

I think the team with the most points...the most consistent team...the BEST team...should be rewarded as such...and if they happen to win the league and the points...they get a GREAT payout like they deserve

[rtmike]

I'd like to join if possible.

Only thing I question is only 4 playoff teams. If the league expands to 12 I vote 6 playoff teams.

[Short Leash Hootie]

I'm never for more playoff teams in a FFL league (too much luck) unless a good chunk of the final payout goes to 1st and 2nd in overall points scored.
