It's time. Football is almost upon us... actually its still far away but I wanted to get started on this to make sure we get the league going again this year. This will be the 4th season we've done this, last year was probably the best one we did. We had the buy-in set at $15 with a payout of $100 for first, $35 for second and $15 for third. We can always switch this up or adjust if we raise the buy-in. The draft will either be during the last week of preseason or the week before the first regular season game. The league will be on ESPN also. I think we will cap the league at 10 teams, maybe we can go to 12 if we get tons of interest. Last year we all got on google hangout or tinychat during the draft and had a grand ole time, I say we do that again as well.

I can't remember the specific rules of the league as far as PPR and all that. Who ever has some input on that post it. If you want to make some changes to the rules, suggest them.

How to get into this league you ask? PM Steezy_P, he is the guy who you will send money to. He has collected all 4 years and paid out all for years. He will send you his paypal e-mail and once he gets paid you get an invite to the league with your e-mail.

I'm a big fan of ten teams but for something like this, I'm not opposed to pushing it to twelve. I wouldn't mind doing PPR this season either.

Yeah i'd be most interested in 10, 12 is fun if you have a good active group though.

As for rules, draft style? playoff rules? This league i played in last year the super bowl game was just one game, not two combined, I kind of like the latter.

As for scoring, im a fan of standard basically becauses its all ive played. PPR sounds confusing to me, can someone clear it up? It is the same as standard + point for receptions? Or just points for receptions?

I assume you are referring to Steezy_P. I talked with him last week about it, he said he is in, he just did redbull flugtag this past weekend so I guess hes not yet come on since. But I am fairly certain he is in to run the league and collect again.

With everyone who said they're in, counting me and steezyp, we have 6 right now.

I'm in.

Let's do 10 or 12 team league, no divisions, decimal scoring, .5 PPR, and a new way I found to do D/ST scoring (more balanced due to less points for certain things and more points for stingy defenses + turnovers/TDs). I would also be down to add another WR position if we wanted to. Buy in at $20 bucks or more would be good.

I could start a new league and manage if we can't get one rolling.

Thanks for the thread! We are gonna get this going soon. Everyone get your vote in for buy-in and we'll debate on the top 2 options.

I have been slammed busy lately, but things are starting to slow down, and we can finally start to let this thing take shape again. Can't wait for another fun FF season with y'all!

Should have added that we should just reactivate last years espn league. You can change owners, scoring, etc in there just fine. I just gives those of us who were in it last year an easier way to sign up.

Down for that. Just want to be sure people pay before they get in. One year nobody paid. It sucked.

Both of these are good ideas.

I'm cool with PPR. But if we do it, I'm not a fan of 1/2. PPR changes how you draft, so if we do it, do it all the way or don't.

If I just reactivate the league isn't that going to automatically join the people that played last year that aren't going to this year?

You can edit owners in the league manager settings. I did the same thing this year with my home league to kick out a few scrubs.

Because it is an online league I cannot be the LM. Therefore... I reactivated the league and do not have a way of deleting players. I am going to just have to create a new one tonight.

IMPORTANT:

If you are on the list above ^ please message me for paypal instructions. I think we can settle for $25 as the buy-in. You will not be invited into the league until the money arrives in my account.

We had problems getting a high buy in first year, ended up at $10. I think $25 is a good amount for this.

I had already included cornholio in the 10, so astomp makes it 11. Pretty sure.

Right now we have, Myself, Steezy_P, Sno, Hugo, Chewy, eheath, cornholio, toddsteez, granite state, flatland, and astomp. So that's 11. Get the 12th man (not a Seahawks reference).
