kalensc posted:I was looking through last season's thread to try and figure out what type of team to draft. Does it make sense to draft for this like you would any other normal league and then be ready to use waivers to claim gimmick players week-to-week, or does drafting a "great team" not really matter much due to all the modifiers and rules? you can change rules to make almost any player rosterable. Pick players with cool names IMO e: I wrote up a draft strategy for the league here it is

I notice that tons of roster spots are left empty on each team, so just to clarify we can max out our rosters and then bench as many as desired so long as we fulfill the positions listed in: "We are starting the season with your basic QB, RB, RB, WR, WR, TE, FLEX(no qb), K, DEF setup until rules start changing it." yea? yes rules and rosters will start at ESPN standard but they won't stay like that for very long. still, for week 1 we'll likely start with a lot of dudes on the bench

NEW RULE! NEW RULE! I've made a Huge Mistake  HC scoring is now 150/point instead of 500. I HAVE THE CALVIN BALL Later Bedtimes, Fewer baths!  Your starting lineup must include a player from a night game (Broncos @ Chiefs, Seahawks @ Packers, Jets @ Colts) Reminder The commissioners are LAZY. It is the responsibility of each manager to police their opponents rosters and tattle if they are fielding illegal lineups (extra players/omitting a slot with negative points) or restricted players (0 snap players/Calvin Ball rule). Please also help us out if it appears we've missed a rule - there are a ton of rule changes each week and sometimes we miss things Fight Club Sandwich fucked around with this message at 17:41 on Sep 15, 2015 |

JPrime posted:I have Rivers and Jameis on my bench, and I picked up Shaun Hill on the Vikings to be my starting QB (even though he's not his team's starter), is that kosher or do I need to start rivers or winston? They would need to play a snap. you can gamble that there is a trick play for shaun hill but if he doesn't play we will insert the most negative QB into your lineup

Marshmallow Blue posted:Both are the kick holders for our respective teams. What's the call on that? Any snaps are fine. If your opponent is playing someone you're suspicious of, look them up here and if they played zero snaps squeal on them. For wk 1, mccown would have been fine while we would have thrown the book at anyone who started hill  Also - don't start injured players and expect us to fix your lineup. we will only tinker with a team if it HURTS YOU, and we'll only find out about it if the opposing manager tattles

Anubis posted:Uck, self violation reporting here. I forgot a 2nd kicker which should give me Succop for -160. However, my opponent played a defense (-3996) and no TE, so hopefully someone out there got negative points on that. If Joe Webb didn't get any snaps I'll pull one out but I think he did. Yoshifan823 posted:I'm Telling!!!  Snowgoon house of horror will not be penalized for starting Joe Webb while Hill and Bernard IRL will be penalized for starting Zack Mettenberger  I discussed with anubis and  for this week and all future roster violations, we will replace the offending player with the most negative player on anyone's roster (adjustment C in the above screenshot) Our rationale is that (1) it's easier to see negative players on rosters while we might miss a negative player in FA and (2) rostered players will be higher usage and therefore tend to be more damaging when negative points are involved.Since Joe Webb is legal, Snowgoon House of Horror (11,989) will win over A Nauseous Nocturne (4,643) Since Mettenberger is a violation, Mark Sanchez Passes Go Boink (8,332) will win over Hill and Bernard IRL (-7,100) Standings 2-0 Baldrash - Building Character 2-0 Aredna - It's a Magical League, Hobbes 2-0 Marshmallow Blue - All QBs are Just Sacked --- 1-1 Fenrir - The Endzone is Lava 1-1 JPrime - The Noodle Incidents 1-1 gardenald - "Y" as in "Y do we care?" 1-1 KalenSC - A Philistine on the Sidewalk 1-1 Fight Club Sandwich - Snowgoon House of Horror 1-1 Yoshifan823 - Mark Sanchez Passes Go Boink --- 0-2 old dog child- Kaepernick Caepadick 0-2 Anubis - A Nauseous Nocturne 0-2 OxySnake - Hill and Bernard IRL For Week 3, OxySnake has the Calvin Ball

Baldrash posted:So I guess I'm telling on myself? You will either get a zero or negative points depending on if any of the currently rostered kickers score negative points. It won't end up mattering and I will probably forego doing the math depending on how close the game is since projected scores are 15-25K this week and the most negative kicker only has -340 on the season.

Marshmallow Blue posted:I have no objection. Baldrash posted:New Rule! New Rule! These rules basically cancel each other out. ESPN or at least the league we have set up does not allow QBs in the flex slot - in essence, Marshmallow Blue opened up the 2nd QB slot and Baldrash closed the 1st QB slot so everyone starts 1 QB this week.

Marshmallow Blue posted:So we can play 2 Qbs and 0 FLEX instead? Per the letter of the rule yes, also I checked rosters and most are already doing it so good on you guys However some managers are definitely cheating. There should only be 2 slots filled between QB, QB, FLEX, FLEX some players are doing QB QB FLEX or QB FLEX FLEX and will be penalized once rosters locked. Aredna posted:Did this not make it so it is 2 WR slots? OxySnake posted:Didn't the HC spot get reopened this week? Yes to both these things. re: WR, the rule is clearly in place so it makes sense to have 2 WRs but the commish roster only has 1 WR listed so I can see why some may only start a single WR. If both managers start 1 (there is currently a game doing that) that's fair, but if 1 manager starts 2 and the opposing manager starts 1 that isn't fair and me and anubis will have to think of the fairest solution. A lot of teams are already starting 2 WRs but can the rest of you update your teams to start 2? re: HC yes this is definitely open, thanks for raising and reposting the rule. since the rule was highlighted for everyone days in advance i think its fair to assume everyone should consider the slot open.

Week 5 Scores We had already implemented the negative rule by the time I got around to screenshotting - the actual scoreboard for Week 5 would have been the absolute values of these scores Roster notes: It's a Magical League Hobbes started 0 snap Alshon Jeffery, replaced with worse WR (3 way tie of Nate Washington, DJax, and Stevie all @ -500). Does not affect result Noodle Incidents started a QB and 2 FLEX, lost his game anyway so does not affect the result Kaepernick Caepadick started 2 WRs and lost to The End Zone is Lava who started 1 WR (so no need to adjust either team), all other games had 1 WR vs 1 WR or 2 WRs vs 2 WRs so great job guys!
