Okay so I came across this thread from last year and I've created a league in Fantrax. I created it for 16 teams. Cost is set at $75.00 per person and I am going to use the Fantrax Treasurer because it's just easier that way. For those of you that have never used it, basically you won't have access to the league until you log in and pay your $75.00. Then at the end of the season I (the commish) tell them how to divide the money to each winner and you can have it transferred to Paypal, leave it in your Fantrax account, or they will send you a check for your winnings and they don't charge any fee, so if we get 16 teams that will be $1200.00 in prize money. It will be head-to-head matchups with 6 teams making the playoffs. It will be full point PPR. It's going to be a live draft sometime in August (date is set for August 12th right now, but that's just because I had to put something in) and we are going to draft 16 rounds with the following starting lineup:
1 QB
2 RB
2 WR/TE
2 RB/WR/TE
1 K
1 D/ST
1 IDP
You will notice that you do not have to start a tight end. I am all about flexibility and I hate tight ends, so you can actually play 4 running backs, 4 wide receivers, or 4 tight ends depending on how you want to set the lineup. I just set it at 1 D/ST and 1 IDP so that way anybody that's never done IDP can get their feet wet without feeling like they are drowning. Anybody that wants in will need to send me their email addresses via private message so I can send you the invite because it is set as a private league. Scoring is pretty standard except I do 5 point quarterback touchdowns (always thought 6 is too many and 4 is too few, besides it drives Treff crazy so that makes it worth it). All return touchdowns count for both offensive and defensive players. Small bonuses for long offensive touchdowns for QB, RB, and WR. Decimal scoring. Try to make the IDP scoring as equal as I can for each position so that your defensive lineman with a lot of sacks score the same as your high tackling linebackers and your DB's, but for those that have never done it, just draft a linebacker that makes a lot of tackles. They will always be your most consistent scorers. Team defense scoring is all pretty standard for turnovers, sacks, and touchdowns. The only negative points for yards against is to give up at least 500 yards (-2) and the only negative points for points against is to give up at least 45 points (-2). Any other questions, please let me know and I'll be happy to answer them.
