Great suggestion
We can have a poll or something on the best way to sort out draft picks next year to negate tanking
Yeah looks interesting. Will PayPal you the money now. I’ll be the Fresno State Bulldogs

Great, I’ve sent you an invite to the league only 2 to go.
Can we not just have a code of conduct and kick out anyone who tanks on purpose? Most people in the league are known anyway and would be surprised if they’d do such a thing.
Yeah I agree Mark. All players in the league already compete in other leagues. But we can thrash it all out when we have filled the league
It’s not just a conduct thing, though I think it helps with that, also think the lottery system would add another angle of intrigue for the offseason, the NHL have the same sort of system, but its weighted toward the last place team being more likely to get the 1 pick
Plus I don’t think telling people they have to play their best team or you’re out or punished is the way forward, think there should be an incentive too (which the lottery system is), but at the end of the day it’s their team their decision
When the league is full I will do a poll to see what the consensus is on how to allocate the first draft pick
All of these presume 1st place picks last, 2nd picks second last etc for the top 6 placed teams. These are for 7 down only.
a) Inverse of League standings - Worst team gets the first pick same as the NFL (Penalty for tanking)
b) Lottery - Giving more tickets to the worst team
c) Lottery - Giving more tickets to the winner of the consolation ladder
d) Let’s play for it - Winner of the consolation ladder wins 1st pick and so on - Keeps it competitive till the end and negates tanking
e) Order in which teams are eliminated
f) Best non playoff teams get 1st pick so 7th gets first 8th 2nd etc. Again keeps it competitive.
g) A mix - Consolation ladder decides first round picks, 2nd-5th round inverse of league standings
If anyone has any other thoughts let me know.
There will also be a poll on if and when there is a trade deadline
a) Locked for the playoffs only Week 13 and open again when winner and draft picks are known.
b) Week 12 onwards same as above
c) No trade deadline.
Personally think C and F are the only way to incentivise not tanking without having punishments, would have the Cs tickets to be assigned on the league finish not the consolation standings, cos once you in the playoff stage, tanking doesn’t affect anyone anyway. Also would prefer just for the poll, Lottery, to be one option, then how to assign tickets/entries to be another discussion, I.e each win gets you and entry etc.
Just a side note, I’ve just checked the scoring settings, is there a specific reason why bonus points for RBs are double the bonuses for other positions? Also the kicking points, for 40-49, shouldn’t a made kick be 4 points if a miss is -2?

- Dynasty tends to value receivers over running backs - WRs tend to last more years and be more consistent. So the higher bonuses were a way to balance this
- Yep I’d agree with your extra point for the field goal - dont think it’s a huge deal but i would back nudging it up to +4 /-2 for 40 - 49 yards

Nice one David, we could start drafting in the next few days
I can see that you guys have put a lot of thought into it, my thinking was that RBs already outscore WRs by quite a bit without the extra boost, if you look at last years points.
