I like the 2/week idea, though I wonder if Fantrax would even support that.

They can, a keeper league that I am in has it set up that way through Fantrax - granted I have no idea how to make the settings do that. I can ask them if we decide to go that route though.

My entire gimmick is that I keep winning because USFs quarterback gets my 100points in a game that no one knows is happening, and then Bama defense gets three touchdowns and 5 sacks.

I'm feeling real good about my team depth, looking for 1 or maybe 2 trades to finish off the year. Looking to trade 2 mid-upper guys for 1 elite.

I should probably sell high on Dede Westbrook. But my only team need right now is a stud QB which don't exactly grow on trees.

You missed your chance. That was one of the offers I made with Davis Webb, I think.

e: I'll come up with something to offer you. Gotta figure out how to approach it. Also let Ninja Bob turn me down (or accept, or counter, oh please accept/counter) because the two players I'd offer you wouldn't be the same two I offered him.

Webb is possibly injured, has a bye left, and faces much tougher defenses in the coming weeks. I felt like his upgrade over my current QB was not worth the recent best WR in the nation.

He's past his bye (was last week), the injury was a 1 game thing, and I've found that proper Air Raid QB's still put up points against good defenses.

Plus, you could have easily countered for something to sweeten. I've got a deep roster and would have entertained a lot.

I'm thinking about it, but you've offended my Arizona homer honor by calling Nick Wilson "a dude". Also I'm not certain it's strategically wise to let you upgrade your team into the stratosphere, but whatever. Let me look at possible counters.

Sorry. I picked the one sub-20 PPG guy on your roster that I thought had the most potential to turn into a contributor later if I decided to keep him, provided he comes back from injury OK. The "just a dude" label was to encourage you to counter with a different dude if you wanted to. Feel free to counter with whoever. Same with my team, Pumphrey and maybe Hansen are really the only skill players that I won't consider trading.

5-3 with 5 straight wins, and 2 losses by a combined 3.5 points. i can work with that, especially given I think i won 5 games the last teo years combined.

Any idea what the division tiebreaker is? head-to-head or total points?

If it's total points I could feasibly lock up my division this week and make my showdown with Rich Rod's Rage Face the following weekend meaningless.

Are we only doing a 4 team playoff? I just realized that week 11 is set up as a regular season week.

That means you've gotta win your division to get in.

Right now, all 4 divisions are still in question with 3 weeks to go.

league settings are:

1. most fantasy points
2. most fantasy points
3. random.

(and while I love most fantasy points being the tiebreaker, that's not h2h)

e: Also, with 8 games in the books, I would have placed 4th in total points last year (35 points back, 10 games), 4th in total points in 2014 (350 points back, 11 games), 3rd in total points in 2013 (370 points back, 11 games). I'm truly sorry guys >_<

We traditionally do weeks 12 and 13 for playoffs.

I don't know where the hell Fantrax is getting that setting from - there's no way to set that in League Settings. I set up playoffs manually by ranking in division, then by most fantasy points.

Past seasons we've done the last 3 weeks as playoffs, 8 teams, 2 from each division. With 2 weeks, we're only going to be doing 4 teams, only division champ.

So, I went to change and realized how loving late we are in the season.

That being said, I feel like it'd be loving stupid to change it this late. For some reason I thought we had more weeks :(

For 2016, unless anyone can make a good case, we'll stick with 2 week playoffs. It sucks, but it's better than nothing.
