New PPR League on Fantrax

[SmokingMonkey]

how many playoff teams?? if 6, then it seems weird that the 6th team doesn't win money in that payout

lose back-to-back playoff games and you want to get paid?

 

[MikeMed]

Okay, so updated list. Nosferatu is in and I think Ram wants in but have to make sure so I just added him to the maybe list for now. If he's in we're at 13 and if we can twist the arms of @SmokingMonkey , @ehb5 , and @obxyankeefan we will have our 16. Once we have our 16 we need to get everybody paid on the site and then we can start looking for a draft date and make a couple of decisions as a league. Just as a reminder this will be full point PPR and the starting lineup will be:

1 QB
1 RB
2 WR/TE
3 RB/WR/TE
1 K
1 D/ST
1 IDP

6 bench spots

Definite No's

Treff
Foot
Barilko
Joe
Shady
Lefty
Trudem
Smitty
Stomp
Jwolt
TKO
Sam
Tlance
Ritzarmy

Definite Yes (12)

Bandit (already paid)
Femurov (already paid)
Harold (already paid)
Fuzzy (already paid)
J.D. (my brother-in-law already paid)
Scott C. (my brother already paid)

I'm not even sure we are going this playoff route yet, but if you have 6 teams make the playoffs then #1 and #2 have a bye. #3 plays #6 and #4 plays #5 in the first round. Let's say #3 and #4 win those games. So in the 2nd week of the playoffs #1 plays #4, #2 plays #3, and #5 plays #6 (the two losers from the previous week) and the winner of that game finishes 5th. Then the next week if #1 and #2 play each other for the title, #3 and #4 play against each other and the winner of that game finishes 3rd.

well that was a shit ton more polite (and accurate) than what my response was going to be.

Ways to Lose back-to-back playoff games:
1) you suck, so there's that
2) bad luck, which often happens to people that suck
3) bad decisions, so yea, you suck
4) opponent team goes bananas, which still means you suck

I lost back-to-back playoff games in bandits dynasty league last year, so I suck

Ok. Sorry. I haven’t yet accepted the invite so I haven’t seen the playoff rules yet. Didn’t realize it wasn’t a NORMAL fantasy playoffs.

Now I see. Now it makes more sense to see the payouts.

It's normal in all my leagues!! It's cracking me up that Monkey is that one talking about the teams sucking when he was the one that finished 6th in my dynasty league last year. (That's funny, I just read your "spoiler") He still won money though because he had the biggest single week during the season.

I'll refer you to item #3 in my list, good sir

Had the right players........on my bench

I suck

 

[TREFF]

I told him and he's looking it over, but will have to discuss with his partner. He told me what it was and for what it's worth, I told him that I would take the trade, but we don't always see things the same so we'll see what he says.

He shot me down...wtf??

Counter to the counter to the counter..done deal

Okay bringing this back up to the front. We have 11 people that say they are in but only 6 have paid. The draft is still a little over a month away, but I would like to get all of the teams locked in and paid. @ehb5 @obxyankeefan @SmokingMonkey you guys said that you would possibly do the league and I would really appreciate it if you guys did, which would put us at 14 and leave us with only finding two more. Just let me know. If you guys don't, then we'll have to start recruiting outside of the hoop unless anybody else knows of somebody that would want in.

Well let u draft djax

 

[femurov]

Has the draft date been set yet?

 

[Bandit]

Not really. I have to get all the teams set before we can decide on a draft date. It will some time in August. I'm looking at Sunday the 19th right now, but that is subject to change based on who ends up in the league.

@femurov @HaroldSeattle @Yellow Fuzzies @MilkSpiller22 @Nosferatu @bksballer89 @SteelersPride

Alright, so the guys that are already in, do you have guys that you know of that might want to do the league? Still at 11 right now and EHB is a no, so that still leaves @obxyankeefan and @SmokingMonkey as the only other MBBRLers that might do it. I've sent a post to one of the other big money leagues I'm in to see if any of them might be interested.
