  • There is a line for this league and new members had to wait for old ones to drop.  I'll have to double check but I think you are one spot ahead of @HazletonEagle

    I mean come on is this really a controversy? I had the best record by far and most points scored anyway (including starting a benched Jameis Winston one week ). The rest of you are basically a bunch o

Second flex slot that can also be kickers? :whistle:

F it, 3 kickers slots per team. XP are worth 5, short field goals worth 10, long field goals 50.  Missed XP = auto loss.

It's what you get for drafting the Cowboys kicker

Draft will be moved to 9/7 @ 8 pm.  To make sure we get it done before kickoff, each person has 5 seconds to pick their player.

PPR will be eliminated.  In it's place we will do Points Per Carry.

League format will change.  We are switching to a vampire league

 

@Agent23 will be the vampire because he sucks at fantasy.

OK - time to reinstate @Machine as commissioner :lol: 

@paco - serious Kicker discussion... because each year there is never "adequate" discussion in advance of the draft (according to Mach) to actually nix it.

If we eliminate (which I am fine with), so we add an additional bench spot, or just have 1 fewer round of the draft and player per team? In either case its not like a Kicker always taking up a 16th spot is different than only having 15 players with no kicker, but now there is no longer a garbage round at the end that (smart) people always draft that specific position

Adding 2 additional kickers so we stay at an even number of rounds.  

 

I know that means there will not be enough to go around, so expect a run on them in the first round.

Dibs on David Akers! 

Since @Machine is the laziest commish of all time and letting me completely bastardize the league, lets at least get a roll call.

Seriously though, if we eliminate kickers, I would add a bench spot OR a second flex.  Leaning toward second Flex.

 

While minimal, having an even number of rounds reduces the advantage people picking 1-3 have over 10-12

Also, and I've been in leagues where this worked well, TE spot is eliminated and instead have one (or two) WR\TE slots.  Might be a way to get the roster back to an even number of players when we eliminate kickers.

I agree the extra flex "balances" out the snake format, and adds a little challenge during BYE weeks since folks may have to add-drop if they want to fill a full roster.

I've rather win\lose due to the randomness of an extra flex (making you choose between your 8th, 9th, or 10th player having a good week) than a kicker having 3 points one week and 14 the next.

I'll do a vote once we confirm rosters.  To avoid ties, @Machine doesn't get a vote because he's a big whiny quitter.

 

Unless he votes to eliminate kickers.  Then I get two votes.

@Mat  Are we still doing the you tubes again?  I'm still getting up early to yell at folks in India so I can likely witness.  It just depends on how long it takes Kelce to take a crap outside.
