This will fill before the season...we need to start getting the type of league/scoring/platform down.

I'm all about H2H playoffs, and highest total point getting paid for sure.

But I'm in another league (usually around $300) that pays out weekly to various things. One week is highest TE, or best qb, or highest margin of victory, or highest margin of defeat, or winning the week by the smallest margin, etc. a fun twist every week.

I'm in, but I guess HC has already signed me up lol

I like something a little different from the norm.. no h2h pints only or either TheFalls suggestion with other unique payouts

I wouldnt like 12 teams though, just too big...

if all our maybes commit, then we have enough. just do it.

Are you married to the H2H concept?

I just think it's flawed in so many ways. You have an incredibly dominant team all season, and in the playoffs play against one guy who happens to luck into 230 points, and you're done? Worse is when you lead the league in points and miss the playoffs.

I know that's all part of the game, it's just annoying to me. I'm still in some other leagues, all H2H, was hoping to try something different with this league. I've done these in the past and they are super fun.

What do some other people think?

H2H is way more fun come playoff time.
That's part of the drafting strategy...got to know who's playing who at the end.
And it gives everyone a shot and rewards for moves made later in the season.

That's why I said pay the top reg season point person.
Or even top 3 I guess.

Mr Who is in.

NBACapper - we will not be doing a 12 person league, so I assume you're out.

Scottcarter and GGW have 24 hours, if they don't want in we will stick with 8. If they do, we will go to 10. If one of them wants in, we will have a 10 person league and open it up to one more participant.

scottcarter - maybe
GGW - maybe


As far as rules, here is what I suggest. Please chime in.


  • Total Points league, not h2h. This means no playoffs. League runs all the way through week 17. Standings are determined only by total points. I already have league majority on this, so if you are not interested in a points league, this ain't the league for you.
  • $100 entry towards the final pot. $5/week towards weekly bonus category. This means that everyone will owe $185 before the draft. I will hold the weekly high points funds and disperse each week, on Tuesday.
  • I would like to try a rotating weekly position bonus. Suggested weekly bonus schedule:
    • Week 1: highest total points
    • Week 2: highest scoring QB
    • Week 3: highest scoring individual RB*
    • Week 4: highest scoring TE*
    • Week 5: highest scoring individual WR*
    • Week 6: highest scoring flex
    • Week 7: highest scoring total RB tandem*
    • Week 8: highest scoring total WR tandem*
    • Week 9: highest total points
    • Week 10: highest scoring QB
    • Week 11: highest scoring individual RB*
    • Week 12: highest scoring TE*
    • Week 13: highest scoring individual WR*
    • Week 14: highest scoring flex
    • Week 15: highest scoring total RB tandem*
    • Week 16: highest scoring total WR tandem*
    • Week 17: highest total points

* - players started in that position slot, i.e. flex players don't count towards that bonus


  • All funds to be paid and dispersed via ppal.
  • I'd prefer a snake draft. Might have to put this one to a vote.
  • 1 QB, 2 WR, 2 RB, 1 TE, 1 Flex - I'd like to remove K and D. Might have to put this one to a vote too.
  • Standard PPR scoring
  • If 8 person, payouts will be:
    • $550 to highest season total points (league champion)
    • $250 to 2nd highest season total points (league runner up)
    • $40 per week dispersed to weekly bonus winner
  • If 10 person, payouts will be:
    • $600 to league champion
    • $250 to runner up
    • $150 to 3rd
    • $50 per week dispersed to weekly bonus winner

Not sure if I'm leaving anything out. Just wanted to get a starting point out there.

Thoughts?

why is 12 out of the question? i think once you lay out the rules especially not being h2h we will get 12 easily
