I'm a beer nerd but not to the extent that I know what the latest things are in my area, or what's popular now. That said, I live south of Boston and there are a crazy amount of good breweries around here. I'm sure I could put a box together that wouldn't disappoint.

The easiest thing to do is to just go to your local places and get some bottles and cans. The box I sent last year was 9 cans from 3 local breweries that most people haven't heard of (RAR, Burley Oak, and Aslin). Not everything has to be a whale. It should just be beer we wouldn't normally be able to get.

That said, you're south of Boston and nobody is gonna be mad if they get a box of Trillium and Jack's Abby.

So we're 6 votes for auction to 5 votes for snake, with Zam unaccounted for- we may need a tie-breaker.

I could flip a coin or something, but it isn't really mutually observable. I'm thinking we pick a random pre-season game this weekend and assign the over and under on the point total to auction and snake and use that to decide. It isn't random per se, but it's I suppose at least unpredictable.

OK, so it looks like Auction is the winner, and RB/WR/TE flex passes unanimously and has been changed.

Are there any other rules or facets of the league that we might want to discuss changing?

Yes, absolutely you can change your team name. Does it allow you to do it, or do I need to edit it for you?

Ok so Tuesday, August 28th is the overwhelming winner for draft date. Most everyone was available for 7:30pm ET and 9pm ET, so any preference as to earlier or later?

I think the earliest time that our west coast people can make probably works the best- That's Zam, spacejung, and YamataNoOrochi, I think.

So I'm assuming that return yards only count for D/ST? Like if the return man on your ST also happens to be starting at WR that week, is he getting points for kickoff yardage?

I believe the player who generated the yards also scores points but it’s a very small number.

Other way around- only the individual ball carriers get points for yardage generated on kick or punt returns(at a rate of 1 point per 25 yards, with punts and kicks calculated separately), while D/ST only gets points of the ball-carrier makes it into the end zone.

Here's the scoring in our league:

Miscellaneous
Every 25 kickoff return yards (KR25) 1
Every 25 punt return yards (PR25) 1
Kickoff Return TD (KRTD) 6
Punt Return TD (PRTD) 6
Fumble Recovered for TD (FTD) 6
Total Fumbles Lost (FUML) -2


Team Defense / Special Teams
Each Sack (SK) 1
Interception Return TD (INTTD) 6
Fumble Return TD (FRTD) 6
Kickoff Return TD (KRTD) 6
Punt Return TD (PRTD) 6
Blocked Punt or FG return for TD (BLKKRTD) 6
Blocked Punt, PAT or FG (BLKK) 2
Each Interception (INT) 2
Each Fumble Recovered (FR) 2
Each Safety (SF) 2
0 points allowed (PA0) 5
1-6 points allowed (PA1) 4
7-13 points allowed (PA7) 3
14-17 points allowed (PA14) 1
Less than 100 total yards allowed (YA100) 5
100-199 total yards allowed (YA199) 3
200-299 total yards allowed (YA299) 2
350-399 total yards allowed (YA399) -1
400-449 total yards allowed (YA449) -3
