 Fishbowl invites sent Contact me if you didn't get oneGobias IND, Turdstown Tom, and I hosed JEsus, need emails from you. Feel free to sign up if you haven't already, and invite your friends. 7 More expansion teams and we can launch a 4th division! Feel free to check out the league settings, and bitch to me about them. Keep in mind, though: - I'm pretty married to the settings listed here: http://scottfishbowl.com/2017/rules.php - I'm still stuck on the playoffs settings. I have 6 months to figure it out, and at worst I can just manually seed EDIT: The expansion division is already half full, so

I just made my account on MFL, but now it's asking me specifically for a password for which franchise I want to request control of. Am I supposed to just pick a random one? It would have been nice to have a little more information on how to actually get into the league on the website itself

It would have been nice to have a little more information on how to actually get into the league on the website itself Thanks for bringing this to my attention. This is a little bit trial-and-error, because I am unsure how to send the login email without re-sending it to all 4 dozen teams. So bear with me while I figure this out. Edit: Figured it out. Check your email for a link, and get back to me if there's still issues.

Went back to the league in MFL and didn't get asked to link franchises, so it looks like everything is good to go! Thanks.

Are you done doing scoring? I noticed that with the current setup, there are no fractional points: e.g., passing yards are 1 per 25 yards instead of .04 per yard, so 49 yards of passing is still just 1 point scored.

You're welcome. Quick question: currently, "conditional blind bids" are turned off. I think this means I can't, say, bid $2 for my preferred streaming TE, bid $1 for a less-preferred TE, except set a condition of "don't try to grab the second guy if I get the first guy." So I run the risk of getting both unless I set both bids to replace the same player on my roster and I have no extra open roster slots. Is there any specific reason to disable conditional blind bids? I'm OK if it's turned off, but I figured I'd ask now, in case it's just an oversight. Blind bidding ties are currently broken by "earliest submitted bid wins" which is maybe unusual compared to for example reverse order of standings or something?

Drunk Nerds posted:Okay so I fixed that stuff. https://www50.myfantasyleague.com/2017/support?L=38058&SEARCH=maximum+number+of+conditional+groups quote:Note that in Conditional Bidding you would enter players in multiple groups in order to receive several players, but the Groups are merely placeholders for these bids and have no weighted value. So players in group 1 have no higher priority than those in group 2. It is based on higher bid amounts. This is explained in more detail on this page: http://www03.myfantasyleague.com/2016/support?L=71137&FAQ=537&SKIP=1 complete with two detailed examples. So to answer your question... I don't know why there's a max or why it's default is four, but it's tough to imagine any owner needing to make more than four conditional groups for a single bid period but on the other hand, why have any limit? Everyone who does conditional bids should look at that page, though, because it can be counterintuitive. See the second example, where Team A bid higher than Team C for Player 2, but Team C got Player 2 due to having that player higher in priority within a given bid group. (Team A could have avoided this by structuring his group differently.) Leperflesh fucked around with this message at 02:58 on Jul 19, 2017 |

Hahaha that's pretty great. I always feel bad when I'm in charge of organizing something like this and I happen to get first pick. I'm pretty sure nobody thinks I would cheat, and of course I never would, but it's just awkward.

Please be sure to change the passing yards. Currently it's set to 0.04 point for every 25 yards. That might weaken the QB spot just a weeeee bit.

I think the point of having points for first downs for RB/WR/TE (with extra for the TE) is to make their average points closer to those of QBs, so that'd be counterproductive. I'm presuming this is why in this two QB league, the first picks have not been QBs.
