Later is preferable after putting the kids to bed, but I could make 7 eastern work if that's what works best.

Felt better about taking a guy like Breece for this exact reason. Really we're probably all overthinking it a little bit because it's hard to be in first! Don't really need to try to not have a good team.

Vargo posted:Who's tanking, who's trying? I think we're playing each other. I'm still rooting for a win though, despite benching my top picks. Week 1 feels the most dangerous to end up getting shelled, so a loss seems acceptable.

Luigi's Death Stare gonna lose JJ because of the Cowboys D haha This league has me so confused in terms of what to root for. Really want to be a couple weeks in and middle of the pack so I can just start my guys. Skyy Moore for Jefferson is catastrophic.

Vargo posted:On the other hand, I'm desperately trying to finish below 60 points so I can drop below Toad Gurley and take the shell. You're also competing with me. My team has absolutely tanked despite me starting all my best guys and actually trying to win. I think I'm currently about 2 points ahead of you and Butker is my last guy. E: Efff Butker has scored enough that I'm gonna be ahead of Toad Gurley by like 4 points

My sample size is obviously only one...but Silly Burrito you just feel like a crazy anomaly to me. Nobody should be able to lose as many guys as you have and still be in first, and yet you keep managing to do it. I think a more typical outcome would be anyone that lost multiple players to the blue shell is likely to drop down out of first and not continue to lose players.

I don't think that's a legal trade - Warren wasn't in his starting lineup so he's not eligible to be acquired.

I guess the two of you agreed to do this instead? That seems fine to me in principle, but... I think that means that second last place (me) gets to blue shell Toad Gurley - if I'm reading the rules right. The blue shell is supposed to be thrown. If Toad didn't realize that I'd be fine with them getting another chance to shell.

Well this is a great development for me. Lot of good options on Toad's team but I think Kelce is the biggest overall upgrade to my roster even if he's not the best guy available. Just sent Engram for Kelce.

Heads up to everyone that it's actually a 15 week regular season because it's only a 4 team playoff (weeks 16 and 17)

Lol I was up 26 with Tyreek against Saquon and Miami D in a matchup I desperately want to win, and Team Waah wants to lose. And now my lead is already down to 1 and Tyreek is hurt.

Heck yeah, 5 straight wins to get into the playoffs. Feel like this all went pretty well for me, mostly by accident. Didn't get shelled, used the shell twice, and got into the playoffs. Now I need Tyreek back.

So....for some more shenanigans... We're past 10 eastern. If I understand right, I think 4th place (Rainbow Road Warriors) was supposed to shell Silly Burrito. But he didn't. Which means 3rd place (me) gets to shell Rainbow Road Warriors. Is that right? If so I'd like to trade Brock Purdy for Josh Allen.

Teams that are mathematically eliminated from the playoffs are not eligible to shell. So it's the lowest placed team that is still alive. Toad Gurley hasn't shelled the last couple weeks despite being in 8th because they had been eliminated from contention. Vargo posted:Just remembered this in my other league so I wanted to declare it here early: You cannot throw a shell if you've been mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.

Yeah it's the inaugural season of a chaos league, it was always likely that there would be some hiccups or unforeseen situations that were not immediately addressed in the initial ruleset. It's just a free league to experiment and get weird. I get your frustration but also these rules have been applied the last few weeks as well, this isn't completely out of nowhere.

The Chiefs (and Amari Cooper) really screwed me. GG Zack. But I gotta root for Silly Burrito because for him to somehow win the whole thing would be hilarious and would really capture how dumb this game we all love is.

I (Bullet Hill) also had 2 steals from being in 2nd last when the last place team forgot to shell. I traded Engram for Kelce (fart) and Purdy for Josh Allen right before the playoffs.
