I'm good with your vote of 2, I just wanted to clarify. Also the server error is cleared and our league page is now accessible. I would also like to vote on monetary rewards for 1st-3rd place. Would everyone be willing to put in  to one of those fantasy football holding sites so we can add some incentives here? Last year was kinda touch and go first year and we really didn't do what I wanted (even though Silly made that awesome gang tag) but cash prizes and punishment for last place is something I would like to do providing everyone else is down.

Thinking we would do a cash prize for 1-3 and then set aside for an avatar for last place.

I’m down with up to four keepers at the cost of draft picks. Also the $10. In another goon league, we just PayPal the commish the money, but whatever everyone wants. I also want a HALL OF CHAMPIONS to be added to the OP. And put my team name/user name in lights under the HALL OF CHAMPIONS dammit.

I strongly oppose any keepers. My reasoning is that I had no idea keepers were a thing and once I realized last season that I wouldn't win I did a lot of random experimentation and ended up with a bunch of random not-very-good players because I was just having fun with it and see if I could hit with an overlooked guy. I may not even have one player worth keeping and I certainly don't have two, and I think it'd be a pretty big bummer for me to have a couple lovely players and then all the best guys aren't even available in the draft so I never recover. I say we start tabula rasa and see who can do that limited game best. If I must vote though, 1.

Thank you all, updated the keeper vote count!Play posted:I strongly oppose any keepers.

It definitely rewards teams that draft well, but I think you will see that even if we have 4 that hardly anyone will keep 4. Plus, if they do...you get first crack at the rookies and there will be some really good names that will not get kept due to age.

If it’s any consolation, I am perfectly happy with a HALL OF FIRST LOSERS section in the OP as well and you can put your team name/user name there.

weird Asian candy posted:Inverse order. That's cool for this year, but I have a proposal for next year. Whoever makes the playoffs gets inverse order of finish the next year (So I'd draft 14th, wAc 13th, etc.). However, whoever makes the consolation bracket, they're playing for the #1 draft pick next year, and the consolation bracket then goes the other way. So the winner of the consolation bracket gets the #1 pick next year, the runner-up gets #2, and so on. I do this in another league, and it's called the Toilet Bowl vs the Super Bowl. However, we have found that it keeps people playing as it gives them something to play for, and it absolutely destroys the urge to tank, because if you deliberately tank, you're not drafting #1, you're drafting #7 or #8. Sometimes people forget that and we point and laugh at them. ********* Suggestion for payout with 14 teams: 1st place - 80 bucks 2nd place - 40 bucks 3rd place - 10 bucks Last place avatar - 10 bucks OR 1st place - 80 bucks 2nd place - 30 bucks 3rd place - 10 bucks Last place avatar - 10 bucks Either highest weekly score of the season or regular season champion - 10 bucks (Personally, I'd say highest weekly score because everyone still qualifies every week to shoot for that)

I'm fine with $10 and 2 keepers. If this wasn't the internet I'd say make it interesting and go with a roll of the dice to see how many keepers you get, but without everyone being in the same room, someone 's gonna complain about cheating.

I'm no math major, but looks like 2 Keepers is going to be it and $10 will be the buy in. I don't mind you guys pay pal'ing me, I just know the poo poo that went down with PWP last year and while I know I would never do such a thing, I would understand if y'all were not comfortable sending me the money and instead using a 3rd party. In the coming weeks, I'll update the keeper settings, and finalize all the monetary rewards and punishments!

I'd sacrifice ten bucks just for the hilarity of someone running off with it, although I know you wouldn't do that. pretty sure I don't have a single person that's worth skipping the first round for, but it's also hard to know who everyone else will be keeping. I suppose once everyone decide who they're keeping, then a list will become available of the players that will be in the draft?

i mean im not bothered if you guys aren't, although I am kind of excited to get started. I'm starting fresh (because I'm not a BITCH) and I'm excited to make a bunch of horrible picks and then back them up with horrible trades. when do fantasy leagues generally start anyways, I mean I suppose as long as it's before the season starts that's all that matters
