Rather than doing a traditional dyasty league, I wanted to spin one up that plays differently than other leagues I am in. Inspired largely by the Scott Fish Bowl, I came up with this 12 man SuperFlex monstronsity. Auction draft, blind bidding waivers, no defense/kickers, large starting lineups with lots of flex spots, whats not to like? Feel free to ask for clarification on anything that may not have been covered well. League Page: http://www79.myfantasyleague.com/2016/home/64289 Draft: The startup draft will be an action draft. Each team will get $400 to bid on and purchase the players they want. Rookie drafts from future seasons will be a traditional draft where the order is determined by record (worst to first). Waivers: Blind bidding system period each week. After that period players are considered free agents and can be free picked up in a first come first serve manner. Scoring System: Full ppr for RB/WR 1.5 ppr for TE .2 points per carry everything else is pretty standard. Roster Size: 26 Roster spots w/ 3 IR spots to help with those pesky injuries. Each year we have a 4 round rookie draft, after which teams will have to cut down to 26 players again. Starting Lineups: 1 QB 2 RB 3 WR 1 TE 1 Superflex 3 RB/WR/TE Flex that means everyone is starting 11 players. Playoffs: 3 division winners by record WC determined by most points scored by a non division winning team. Prizes: I'm thinking ~$30 entry fee which after fees gives us about $310. Once the league fills we can decide how we want to distribute that amongst the top finishers. Players: 1. papes 2. Cervixalot 3. Metapod 4. papes irl friend #1 5. papes irl friend #2 6. DeliciousMonster 7. Forever_Peace 8. Yoshifan823 9. Cervixalot's friend 10. Mr Sargent 11. Papes irl friend #3 12. Papes fucked around with this message at 14:05 on Aug 24, 2016 |

I've actually been giving it some thought and I think we might need to drop the roster spots to 24. Each team could realistically only have 3-4 qbs and with 22 other spots to hammer the other 3 spots there would be pretty slim pickings for waivers. I feel like every team would try to bid their entire budget on the 3-4 Tim Hightowers that come from nowhere every year.

Forever_Peace posted:Pretty sure I have to throw my hat into any spreadsheet-themed leagues. I figured with a draft that will take this long we would have to coordinate it once more people joined, so I intentionally did not set a date. I think at this point we can start trying to decide a date. I'm free any day past 6pm central, and anytime on weekends this month. I'm not familiar with a slow auction draft, how does that work? That could be an option if we can't decide on a date.

Epi Lepi posted:I've been really really wanting to do a dynasty league so I'm considering this but I've never done an auction draft. How do they work and when will this one be? Draft date will probably be deciding factor of if I can join. An action draft involves taking turns nominating a player. Once a player is nominated then we bid on them until the high bidder wins. This continued until teams fill out their roster or go broke.

http://doodle.com/poll/ivbfdd6tf3eft5f4 Please select all times when you would be able to draft. The draft will probably take 2-3 hours to complete but plan for 3-4 to be on the safe side. Cervixalot posted:Need help recruiting any league mates? We getting close to the magic 12? I think once we set a time all we will have to do is post in the main thread to get the other 4-5 people. If you know someone who would be interested though, by all means invite them. I only ask that they will remain active during the year. Papes fucked around with this message at 23:48 on Aug 16, 2016 |

Ive talked to the people who didn't do the doodle poll and the draft date where the most players can make it is: Wednesday, August 24th Sorry Epi Lepi, I was trying to push for 9/2 but 2 guys who already paid up cannot do that time. If there is a way you could work it into the schedule or even set default values and let the cpu draft for you, we'd like to have you. If not I understand.

I think I have all the invites out, still need to find 4 more people. Feel free to invite anyone who would be an active user. A groupme sounds like a lot of fun. I've never used it before so it would save me some time figuring it out if you are familiar with it.

Epi Lepi posted:Unfortunately I'm not gonna be able to do that. I considered trying to set values for autodrafting but I don't think that will work out very well. Sorry for wasting time if you were holding that slot but I'll have to back out of this league. You didn't waste any time mate. Sorry we couldn't find a time that worked for everyone.

I just tested it out and it seems doable. There is a bid +1 button that should be easy to hit via mobile. Nominating a player could be a pain. Let me know when you are free tonight and we'll do a test run. Edit: reading your post makes me think you might think the draft is tonight, it's tomorrow evening just to confirm. Apologies if I misread that.

How do you guys feel about having 2 nominations going on at once during the draft? It would be a little more hectic but would cut the draft time nearly in half. If it's a really dumb idea feel free to say so.
