I would be down for some charity chugging of 4lokos and all that good stuff I've read about in the main thread. Would I have a shot at winning if I pay the initial $25 and then toss a few dollars every now and then as a lifelong member of The Poors?

This is assuming, of course, that you're still taking players. And that you'd have an even amount of players.

How do you know which team donated what? Do I have to put in a message to activate a filter or something?

MY WIFE could also join if we end up with an odd amount of players.

HOLY poo poo IT'S FOOTBAWL!

Couple things:

A) Please let me know what charity you're playing for.

B) We've already raised $2419 for charity, which is pretty awesome!

C) Rather than scour through the charity logs this year I'm going to work on the honor system and please tell me here when you've made a donation. That way it's easier to keep track of things.

D) Don't forget to cheat!

I bid $100 (10 Points) this week!

Is there a list of charities we can choose from or any kind of limitation?

Tossed $50 your way to be equally split between my wife and I.

I'll be playing for the Cure Alzheimer's Fund and she'll be playing for the Give Kids The World charity.

I'll trade a good WR (Sanders, Nelson, Jeffery) for an equally good RB.

or

I'll trade a medicore WR (Crowder, Wallace, Austin) for an equally mediocre RB.

You can even toss a backup QB in there if you must.

Beer the way our points scored by week matches up is pretty uncanny.

I will lose by 40 points.

I was waiting all week for Internet to cheat, then noticed today the stat correction that put it out of reach.

I think it was always out of reach because of your benched safety. Unless I also missed a stat correction or something.

I haven't been able to cheat once so far. :argh:

$100 for 10 points for this week.

Gates (14.3) for Barnage (1.3) for $130 and +13pts
Santos (13) for Tucker (9) for $4 and +4pts

Total last week +27 pts including the 10pt prebid

I'll do Melvin Ingram (18) for Jake Ryan (0) for +18 for a total of +28 if you include the prebid.

No prebid for me this week, though.

I just donated $30 because apparently I like to overspend on lovely bench players.

internet inc unless I've done my math wrong you owe $63. You have $317 in FAAB but spent $380 on cheating.

Yeah I thought so, too. Don't know where it went wrong though.

I'll send the fix when I get home. Plus I think I can cheat for the W this week as well.

Hah, it's fine. I checked the thread probably seconds before you posted to see if I had missed a pre-bid snipe. Didn't really think about the actual kickoff.

Would it help if we could say things like: I'll match the pre-bid if my opponent calls one or I'll out-cheat my opponent if he tries?

It might take the fun out of some of it, but at least no one will bid/cheat while the kicker is running towards the ball for the kickoff or anything like that. Or at 8:24:59.

That said, though, I wouldn't have matched spacejung's pre-bid even if I had seen it on time. I just called him out a bit because I checked at 8:25 sharp and didn't see anything.

63$ that I owe.
100$ pre-bid for this week.
272$ cheating to put the W just out of reach of spacejung.
65$ in leftover FA money.

for a total of $500 or 50 freedom dollars coming your way.

All this so I can try to knock you out of the playoffs.

All right so assuming

lands you at 160.8 + 27.2 = 188.0, then I can...

Kirk Cousins (16) to Matt Ryan (21.5) = 5.5
Spencer Ware (6.8) to Jonathan Stewart (12.6) = 5.8
Tyrell Williams (9.3) Sammy Watkins (13.4) = 4.1
Doug Baldwin (7.6) to Davante Adams (18.4) = 10.8

and then...

Calais Campbell (10.5) to Malcolm Smith (10.5) = 0
Carlos Dunlap (1.5) to Calais Campbell (10.5) = 9

and then...

Frank Gore (15.9) to Tyreek Hill (21.3) = 5.4
Ezekiel Elliott (10.7) to Frank Gore (15.9) = 5.2

for a grand total of 45.8, for $458

That raises my score from 146.4 to 192.2, beating your 188.0 with a 4.2 pt. margin in case of any Stat Corrections that aren't published yet.

After all this, my FAAB is $305 incorporating donations today and 5 days ago ($30 each). Please edit me to that figure when you can. Details below:
code:
+$250 STARTING BANKROLL
+$1900 DONATIONS
-$300 PRE-BID CHEATING
-$956 START/SIT CHEATING 
-$589 SPENT ON WAIVERS

Whaaaaaat you can swap positions around?

E: OP says you can. Guess I should learn to read because I could have beaten you by 5.9 points!

With stats corrections and my 27.2 cheating it puts me at 191.5! :argh:

Also Beer don't bother changing my stats because I miscalculated anyway.

I think I meant to do:

Bort (15.6) for Wilson (5.5) = 10.1
Coleman (18.5) for Ingram (2.8) = 15.7
Ertz (16.2) for Crowder (4.7) = 11.5

for 37.3 total.

I'm trying to find a swap that gives me 27.2 but can't. That'll teach me to half-rear end my math.

This game she is unkind. I hope that a player of your caliber returns to knock me or some other schmuck out at the last minute next year.

You're too kind because I'm sitting here wishing stat corrections will somehow knock off that remaining 0.7 points.

Hats off to you sir, a winner and a gentleman.

I won last week's matchup.

He did. The 37.3 adjustement is what I wanted to do but instead I wrote 27.2 and didn't fix it in time.

See you all next year.
