You can set them up on Yahoo! now. Someone post a good scoring system and I'll set up.

[Talking Poker]

PLEASE, whatever you do, don't use that ridiculous QB only scoring system Aeq set up last year.

I can post a good one for you if you want... does Yahoo have a default one though?

This is a league I've been in for years. We've tweaked the scoring system year after year, and IMO, it's really good:


It's lower scoring than the typical fantasy league, but the best teams win.

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have our league! I decided to go ahead and set it up and this way we get a decent draft time and lots of time to modify things. Hopefully we can get a whole bunch of people in this, or maybe you guys want to limit it, another thing we can change. Anyhoo, if you want to sign up now or in a month, feel free.



You can see the league settings on the side bar right at this registration page. These are the same settings I used for my league last year and it seemed to work out well.

I hate the scoring system , and as it stands, there's no way I coul make that draft time, since that's when my REAL FFL draft is.

[lightfungus]

Apparently it all sucks, but try to break the problem areas down a bit so I can try and modify, Mr. Constructive. And what day is best for everyone? The times go quick in the next couple of weeks so let me know. I want to point out though, that at least this system doesn't contribute to Peyton's team winning, like last years. I think this one is pretty balanced.

[Talking Poker]

It's way too high for defense, for starters. I hate when defensive scoring (more of a crapshoot than anything else) decides fantasy football games.

I would recommend scheduling it for a Wedensday night, around 9:30 - those are our best turnouts for tourneys, so it stands to reason they would be for this as well. During the day on weekend is a bad idea. How about the Wednesday after you have it now? 9/6? That's right before the season starts, so any last minute injuries will be known too.

As I agree with, and now remember, that defensive scoring is fickle at times I went ahead and lowered their point values a good bit. However, I do not think it is so fickle as to delete individual defensive players all together. And the draft time has been changed to September 6th, 9:30 EST .
