Yah, Martin's league went belly up quick. Lol

I think I'll just do one SBR league so it may as well be a high roller league. Count me in. I'll be transferring the down payment shortly. Someone that I've actually met a couple times I feel a little more safe as well.

Which league are you talking about bro? What happened to it?

And yes, I have been building rapport around this motherfuker so I can get people in and then keep all the points.

Thanks for taking the time to set that up, i'll definitly play some of them, especially closer to the start of season.

If I have time I'll make weekly lines as well with over unders and spreads. I'll definitely make one for the big baller league as well.

Oh shit, I just read that thread. People stiffing with SBR points, what the fock has the world come to?

Yup, crazy. Really it was just 50pts and a lot of good people were interested so was looking forward to it. 50 freekin Pts! That amounts to about $3

Oh well, thanks again for setting this up should be a good time.

Cheme82 · 07-22-12, 09:59 PM

I barely wanted to play the LT league. 50 points is too little to have to look after your team for the hole season. I just wanted to get at least one draft down before the big one comes up since I never do mock drafts.

Cheme82 · 07-22-12, 11:18 PM

4 spots already taken, 8 left in the league. You can hold your spot with 200 points. The rest can be paid before the draft on September 1st.

LT Profits · 07-23-12, 07:38 AM

I paid you half.

I already registered the league so that we can lock in a good draft day. It's scheduled on Saturday September 1st. at 3 p.m. central. Hopefully it's a time that works for most people.

Is it standard scoring with no PPR? In fact, can you post the rules here?

JAKEPEAVY21 · 07-23-12, 10:24 AM

looking forward to this boys...cheme count me in for the extra 500 for the high scores as well...just remembering that I was in your league last year as well..

Cheme82 · 07-23-12, 01:15 PM

5 spots filled now that LT jumped in, 7 still available.

Here is what I have set up right now:

12 teams, 3 divisions.
12 weeks regular season
3 division winners go to the next round (top 2 get a bye on week 13)
3 best records (besides division winners) also go to the next round. Note that it's not the 3 second place teams, if a 3rd. place team has a better record than a 2nd. place team then the 3rd. place team will go on.
Week 13 is wildcard week. the 3rd. best division winner plays the 6th. playoff team, 4th. and 5th. playoff teams also play.
Week 14 is semi finals. #1 seed plays the lowest seed still alive, #2 team plays the only remaining team.
Week 15 is Superbowl (1st half)
week 16 is Superbowl (2nd. half)
Winner of week 15 + Week 16 is Superbowl Champ

Division winners get their 1,000 back
2nd. Place gets 3,000
1st. Place gets 6,000

Maximum win by 1 team is 7,000 (division and superbowl)

Roster
QB
RB
RB
WR
WR
Flex (RB/WR)
TE
K
DEF
6 Backups

20 passing yards = 1 point
passing TD = 4 points
no points per reception

I am a commissioner by the people and for the people so anything you guys want to change I'm all ears.

Every week we'll have the high score contest, the last 6 weeks are mandatory, the first 6 weeks are optional. 50 points to enter, winner takes all. You are welcome to send them ahead of time for the whole season or pay as you go.

Every week we'll have the high score contest. 50 points to enter, winner takes all. You are welcome to send them ahead of time for the whole season or pay as you go. I would love to have everyone playing every week so that the payout is 600 points but it's not mandatory.

I like what I see as far as the league settings and lineup except instead of 3 wrs, I would prefer 2 wrs and add a flex(rb or wr) instead...I would like to see the weekly high score pool be mandatory, at least for the 2nd half of the season..this gives incentive to owners that are out of the running to continue putting in valid lineups and gift wrapping wins for whoever they happen to be playing that week..

Cheme82 · 07-23-12, 01:45 PM

I'm cool with both of those. So 300 mandatory extra so that we can have 600 points to the highest score from week 7 to 12. Week 1-6 are optional. What do you guys think?

LT Profits · 07-23-12, 01:53 PM

I see you have standard Yahoo roster (understanding that Flex may be substituted for third WR) except that Yahoo has 6 backups for 15 man roster. Can you go to 6 backups too?

CarolinaDaze · 07-23-12, 01:57 PM

Im down with both those suggestions, ive always been a fan of the flex postion, and i plan on playing weekly side pot everyweek anyways.

Cheme82 · 07-23-12, 02:26 PM

So instead of 3rd. WR we add a flex, make the 300 for the last 6 weeks high score mandatory, and go to 6 bench players?

BIGDAY · 07-23-12, 02:46 PM

I'm in for the weekly high score as well. Agreed with Flex position also (no homo)

Cheme82 · 07-23-12, 06:45 PM

Changes noted on the original post.

Flex (RB/WR) instead of 3rd. WR
6 bench players instead of 5
Last 6 weeks of the regular season are mandatory for the high score contest. 50 points per week so the total cost of the league is 1,300 points.

daysleeper · 07-23-12, 10:00 PM

I'll start accumulating points.

you will have to become a PRO, otherwise it will take roughly 2 years to pay the league dues at 2 pts/day..

Koldazzice · 07-23-12, 11:36 PM

I'm in, Also in LT's -

Thx for doing these leagues and putting in the time for us. This makes it so I have skin in the game but don't need to use actual money to make it interesting

Cheme82 · 07-23-12, 11:43 PM

Cool, 6 spots available. At this pace, the league might fill up before the bash.

BigDeem5 · 07-24-12, 11:10 AM

I need to accumulate some points, hmmm..

Cheme82 · 07-24-12, 10:15 PM

Get at least 200 to lock your place in bro.

opie1988 · 07-25-12, 12:18 AM

This looks very cool, pal.

Good luck to all the players this year.

Cheme82 · 07-25-12, 10:28 AM

opie you're gonna have to refund everyone their 1,300 if I run with the points.

JAKEPEAVY21 · 07-25-12, 11:37 AM

sent another 200...

Cheme82 · 07-25-12, 12:13 PM

Jakepeavy21 400/1300

Cheme82 · 07-26-12, 09:36 AM

Just a reminder for you degens to try to pay off the league before you go all casino-happy and blow all the points. Remember the total is 1,300 because of the last 6 weeks of high score.

LT Profits · 07-26-12, 11:31 AM

Paid in Full. Hey can you PM me league link? I am not sure if Yahoo has max number of free leagues you are allowed to join and it would be embarrassing if I max out before joining this one,

k13 · 07-26-12, 11:44 AM

I mentioned a 1000 point league a week or two ago and no one was really interested, mind you my thread got moved to the points forum.

Steep price but it keeps people more interested and not quitting on teams and ruining a league.

I'm interested.

Just prefer 14+ teams not the 10-12 team leagues for little kids with dream teams.

Rest of the settings/options we should vote on.

k13 · 07-26-12, 11:56 AM

Last year we had a 14 team league, QB, QB, WR, WR, WR, RB, RB, W/R, most never played this format....

Was fun besides a few quitters late and maybe a stiff or two.

k13 · 07-26-12, 12:00 PM

16 team league. 4 divisions, 10000 points to winner. Hardcore!!!!!!!!!!!!

but 14 teamer, 2 divisions, 2 byes, 6 make playoffs is cool too.

Sorry bro, the first people to sign up and I already decided on the settings. You can still make 7k if you win your divisions and the super bowl. There is also the high scoring contest (1,200 points for the last 6 weeks for sure) and I know a few of us will play the first 6 weeks as well.

If you are looking for more action I can play you every week for a couple hundred points and we can take our whole lineup (starters and bench players) into the total. If you want action you are gonna get it believe me.

Cheme82 · 07-26-12, 01:25 PM

Update on points paid:

Cheme82 1300/1300
CarolinaDaze 1300/1300
JAKEPEAVY21 400/1300
BIGDAY 200/1300
LT Profits 1300/1300
Koldazzice 1300/1300
k13 200/1300 (if you agree to our settings, if not I can send the 200 back)

5 spots open as of right now.

I was thinking of making a video from the bash where we will draw to assign the teams to the 3 divisions and set the draft order. Everyone that is in attendance will draw their own division/draft spot. For those owners not there we will draw for them and then post the video here so they can watch it.
