Greetings sirs!

New SA member and new to dynasty leagues, I have a lot of reading to do. I'll try to keep up! I'll be administering the Balls of Fury team - formerly Percy Riot. My usual nickname is Vecna or some variant but it was taken.

Welcome aboard, Vecna!

Take your time to absorb the rules. The immediate things you'll need to do:
-Claim your team, if you haven't already
-Team rosters will be locked on Saturday night, ahead of the rookie/free agent draft on Saturday the 3rd. Be sure to drop any players you want to drop (to make room for rookies/free agents, and/or to get more room below your salary cap) before then. At the moment your total player salary is only $180, though, so you have $70 worth of cap space to draft with which should be plenty. You can also try to trade away/for players instead of dropping them if you want. Any trade deals can include draft picks in this or a future draft... but if you want to trade future draft picks, you (and your trade partner) have to pay the dues for that future year in advance. E.g., to trade 2017 picks, you have to pay your 2017 dues first.
-Keepers also need to be selected by saturday night. Every player you didn't drop is probably a keeper, unless you're about to trade them. At the very top of the MFL page click Reports > Franchise > Keepers. Check all the boxes and then click Select Keepers.
-Bookmark this thread. You can do that with your browser's bookmarks, or, SA has a bookmark feature - click the yellow star in the corner of the first or last post, and visit "User Control Panel" (http://forums.somethingawful.com/usercp.php) at any time to see all of your bookmarked threads.


I've already received your dues for this year, so you're good there. You'll want to review our rules at your leisure, particularly stuff like scoring, the tournament format, etc. If you want to receive emails at something other than the email you provided for MFL, let me know: otherwise that's how I'll try to contact you e.g. next summer when we're getting ready for another year, or if you're owed a prize, that kind of thing.

On SomethingAwful, we don't sign our posts - if you do that in well-trafficked threads, you might get a probation.

Thanks Leperflesh! Haven't played in a league with defensive players in some time, need to get acclimated with that again. Should have my team setup later today or tomorrow. But yeah.. it's already under cap so that works out nice.

whoops.. I should've read page 26. I dumped bridgewater and ladarius green (before catching up on the thread) since they're both IR, it let me drop them but it still shows them on my keeper list.

Grandpa Gates has always been pretty impressive playing through injuries and still having multi-TD games but it's time to hang up the cleats for both of those players. I'm still trying to figure out who Charles Johnson is.. never even heard of the guy!

Woke up this morning and already had 36 pts.. pretty sweet!

Now if I could just figure out how to break the combined 20pt barrier with my RB's. What a bunch of turdsluts.

I need andy dalton to sprain his mangina in the first quarter and landon collins to get 3 defensive TD's... it could happen.

I desperately need this win. I started this year going 4-0 and then I lost five games in a row.

So, of course that's exactly what's going to happen, and it'll especially sting because I could have secured a very solid win already if I'd started Colin loving Kaepernick and maybe any other WR on my roster than Sammy Coates.


gg. Andy Dalton didn't get the memo but he wasn't fantastic either. I thought maybe Rashad Jennings was going to make a difference but .. no, my RB situation is probably the worst scenario I've ever encountered in any league I've ever played. What a basket of deplorables.

Ahh I must've been looking at another dude or the stats weren't refreshed.. actually Jennings wasn't too bad considering the past performances of my dumpster fire of a RB squad

cool story bro! I can't seem to muster 20 fuckin points with my gimp RB's so I think you'll be good. Hopefully Rawls will be good next year. My WR group isn't too shabby... except for the part where the cardinals throw 2 passes to Fitzgerald in the 1st quarter then forget about him the entire game. panicking palmer doesn't help matters either. have fun in the real playoffs, jackasses!

that's hella close. think the previous score was 127-130 (?) in favor of Spermy. I seem to recall a 3 pt gap. More point adjustment is in order for sure! About .3 should do it!

Is that an accurate score for Bobby Wagner? 12.5pts for 4 tackles, 2 assists, 1/2 sack 1 fumble recovery and a TD? seems low for all that
