High Buy-in league

[Cheme82]

It's 1,500 we are adding:

500 points to the best regular season record (tiebreaker is division record first, and total points second)
500 points to the hardest regular season schedule (most points against)
500 points to the longest win streak (tiebreaker is total points on the week in which the streak was broken)
300 points each to the 3 2nd. place division finishers

I wanted to move it because of college football, but if you can't do it early we can do it at 1 Central

I'm not big on all the bonus crap, but since I missed the vote, I'll play along. But 2 ET would be great. If it's any earlier then T Powell may have to take my place. I will send the points for now.

Thank you buddy, I hope there are no objections

[Ez Money 77]

Yeah I work till 10am pst so I can't make it any earlier. I won't be home till about 10:30 so a 11:00 start time would be the earliest I can do.

[Koldazzice]

I just saw we bumped it to 1500 so I sent the 100 in post 283

Longest win-streak will probably be also the person with the best record/points so maybe we should find another type of bonus. jmo

1500 x 12 = 18000

Can we get a complete break down of points so far??

[Jrod124]

I am with LT, I was digging the 3 or 4 ET start time. I was going to have football on while drafting.

I don't get up before noon et usually on Saturdays but if there is a vote I will set a alarm

Will be there!

[Cheme82]

I need you guys to vote on the last bonus 500 points, should we give it to the longest win streak or to the highest scoring team for the regular season?

Also, are you guys ok making week 12 (last regular season week) a rivalry week which means everyone plays someone from the same division and the loser of that week needs to ship 100 points to the winner?

[k13]

I'd say the 2nd place in division bonuses just go to the winner, 7k.

Maybe the last 500 bonus, goes to the worst bad beat (closest loss) ???

Is the schedule right, there should be playoffs on there, not 17 weeks of regular season unless i'm seeing it wrong.

[Cheme82]

We need a vote:

500 points go to:
A) Longest win streak
B) Most regular season points
C) Closest loss

Also:
A) 300 points each to the 3 2nd. place finishers
B) Add the 900 points to the league winner to get to 6,900 points.

The way we are playing the Super Bowl (over 2 weeks) I need to make the schedule 17 weeks with no playoffs.

[LT Profits]

Just my Votes:

500 points go to:
A) Longest win streak NO
B) Most regular season points YES
C) Closest loss NO

Also:
A) 300 points each to the 3 2nd. place finishers YES
B) Add the 900 points to the league winner to get to 6,900 points. YES (depending on availability)

The way we are playing the Super Bowl (over 2 weeks) I need to make the schedule 17 weeks with no playoffs. WHAT? lol. Please explain. I don't think yahoo allows you to go past Week 17 and Week 17 should not be included. Regular Season or Playoffs/Super Bowl should end with Week 16.

[k13]

We need a vote:

The way we are playing the Super Bowl (over 2 weeks) I need to make the schedule 17 weeks with no playoffs.

How is this going to work?

[k13]

Not even sure Yahoo lets you do 2 week super bowl....but

Week 17 Nothing
Week 16 Super Bowl
Week 15 Super Bowl
Week 14 Semi-Finals
Week 13 First Round Playoffs.


The optimal way if Week 17 was not gay would be to play everyone ONCE and everyone in your division TWICE then playoffs and super bowl last week but no one wants a super bowl in week 17 right?

[CarolinaDaze]

Agree wk #16 should be end of it.

[Cheme82]

We are playing week 1 to 3 and 10 to 12 within our division. Weeks 4 to 9 are out of our division. So we will play our division opponents twice and 6 out of the 8 teams outside our division.

Yahoo won't let me do 2-week Super Bowl so after week 12 the schedule will be ignored and we just compare scores to see who moves on.

Week 13 is wild card week, all 3 2nd. place finishers and the worst division winner will play. Top 2 division winners get a bye. Week 14 is semi-final, top 2 division winners play against winner from week 13. Weeks 15 and 16 the 2 winners from week 14 play a 2-week Super Bowl so their scores in both weeks are added.

So on playoff weeks you might be scheduled against someone that might already be eliminated but it doesn't matter, we will know who we are "supposed" to be playing against so we will just compare scores like that.

[k13]

Just checked, you can't do 2 week super bowls.

The only real option is 6 team playoff, top 2 get byes, division winners make playoffs. Sorted by points.

Weeks 14,15,16.


Unless I'm missing something.

[BIGDAY]

Cool!

Paid the 100 more.

I would probably vote B for most Pts during season.

[Cheme82]

Schedule is final, draft order also set. We are ready to rumble!

Everyone in for 1,500, here is a list of the people that still have to pay.

k13 owes 100
EZ owes 100
Jeffie owes 100

We don't care what the yahoo settings are, that's why I made it 17 weeks with no playoffs. We will keep track of who is going against who and change the schedule once we get to week 13.

[JAKEPEAVY21]

[CarolinaDaze]

Question #1 im good with either B or C.
Question #2 I prefer A.

I think your idea of playoffs starting WK#13 works fine, like you said, the last 4 weeks Match Ups will just have to be put up manually?

[Cheme82]

Draft Order:

1) Carolina
2) Acampbell
3) Jrod
4) Jeffie (Phinatics)
5) Peavy
6) Leafer (from cheme)
7) LT
8) kold
9) BIGDAY
10)Ez
11)k14
12)cheme (from leafer)

[k13]

But can you even change the schedule once the season starts?

Things could get really screwed up.

Voting for highest point total.....

[k13]

Anyone want to trade my #11 pick for #7-9?

[Cheme82]

Question #1 im good with either B or C.
Question #2 I prefer A.

I think your idea of playoffs starting WK#13 works fine, like you said, the last 4 weeks Match Ups will just have to be put up manually?

Yeah, after week 12 we will set up the match ups manually.

Just fyi, seeds will be given like this:

Top 3 seeds will be division winners.
Seeds from 4 to 6 will be best record regardless of division (so one division could have more than 2 teams make the playoffs, but each division will have at least 1 team in the playoffs).

Tiebrakers:
Overall record>head-to-head record>division record>common games record>total points

Week 13
Seed 3 vs. Seed 6
Seed 4 vs. Seed 5
Seeds 1 and 2 have a bye

Week 14
Seed 1 vs. lowest seed still alive
Seed 2 vs. remaining team

Week 15
Superbowl 1st. half

Week 16
Superbowl 2nd. half

League winner will be the team with the highest combined score from weeks 15 and 16.

[k13]

Do we really need two weeks for the final?

The rest of the set up is already in yahoo.
Have you done it manually before?

[Cheme82]

We don't need to do anything. But the 2-week Super Bowl is to to minimize the luck factor. I have never done it manually before but it doesn't matter, even if I can't change the schedule after week 12, we will know who is going against who and then we just compare their scores to see who advances.

I'm covering Acampbell's extra 200 points, so we just need 100 more from k13, and Jeffie.

[Ez Money 77]

Sorry I didn't post but I paid the 100 PTS a couple days ago in post 267.

My vote is for total points to get the bonus.

[Ez Money 77]

Also I like the 2 week Super Bowl. Will be exciting.

[Cheme82]

Yeah, will be nice to play it through 2 weeks. Maybe a deal can be worked out in between weeks lol. Ez is paid up, only k13 and Jeffie owe 100 each.
