Keep kickers in.
Keep kickers in.
i used your specific portion of the money to buy drugs
Super Flex is shit.
Kickers are fine, just tweak the scoring a bit so there isn't such a huge difference between a decent week and a good week.
Doesn't really matter that much to me. I play to win (or come second...) not for the money.Originally Posted by Fro
That said seeing as my cars clutch and gearbox have just broke the money has came in handy.
I'll go with whatever Torn thinks, I mean we are the only international players who are ever going to win any money....
No offence.
i also beat beefy in the finals

@Torn I owe you £20 but looks like I’ll finish above you in RFF, so that will cancel it out. But still offering to you want the money now?
Haha we will see at the end of RFF season, we can wait as it's easier if they cancel each other out. Cheers mate.
I vote NO.
Well you wanted -10 for missed XP so we can't take that vote very seriously let's be fair
We should do 1 keeper in 2019.
IDK, I think my vote should be taken as seriously as anyone else who pays money to be in the league.
I prefer a clean slate every year in this league.
Fair enough. I just wanted some guaranteed Zeke Elliott love in 2019.
Can someone get hold of me please when this gets underway this year? I thought I saw the other day that a draft date was set but that might have been automated.
Cheers
I set the draft date tentatively but we will lock that down in July/early August. I've been tinkering with the scoring for kickers and D/ST as well. I will post about that soon and begin counting heads on who is returning to the league.
Updated Scoring: Kickers (changes in red)
Each PAT Made (PAT) 1
Each PAT Missed (PATM) -1
FG Made (0-39 yards) (FG0) 2.5
FG Made (40-49 yards) (FG40) 3
FG Made (50+ yards) (FG50) 3.5
FG Missed (0-39 yards) (FGM0) -1
FG Missed (40-49 yards) (FGM40) -0.5
Result: Kickers are nerfed by around 1 or 1.5 points per game. Now the leader last year (Fairbairn) averaged 8.6.
Updated scoring: Defense/Special Teams (changes highlighted)
Kickoff Return TD (KRTD) 0 (-6)
Punt Return TD (PRTD) 0 (-6)
Interception Return TD (INTTD) 4 (-2)
Fumble Return TD (FRTD) 4 (-2)
Blocked Punt or FG return for TD (BLKKRTD) 4 (-2)
2pt Return (2PTRET) 2
1pt Safety (1PSF) 1
Each Sack (SK) 1
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) 2 (+1)
18-21 points allowed (PA18) 1 (+1)
28-34 points allowed (PA28) -1
35-45 points allowed (PA35) -2 (+1)
46+ points allowed (PA46) -4 (+1)
Less than 100 total yards allowed (YA100) 5
100-199 total yards allowed (YA199) 3
200-299 total yards allowed (YA299) 1 (-1)
350-399 total yards allowed (YA399) 0 (+1)
400-449 total yards allowed (YA449) -1 (+2)
450-499 total yards allowed (YA499) -2 (+3)
500-549 total yards allowed (YA549) -3 (+3)
550+ total yards allowed (YA550) -4 (+3)
Kick return points are removed from D/ST to make this a straight DEFENSE position. I prefer this and it helps offset the scoring boosts in points and yards allowed. There will be significantly less negative D/ST scores, although still a few (this was the main point of tweaking). Bears and Ravens are the only teams who got fewer points in my new system, the rest got a small bump (.5 to 1.5 PPG with the worst teams getting the most boost).

i am in if my name is first on the list, as i won everything last year
Yeah fuck it I'm in again
When we drafting
Good question. So the last 2 years we've done a 6PM US Eastern time draft on a weeknight and I presume that's what will work best again. The final 2 weekends before the opener are holidays in the UK and US respectively.When we drafting
Currently I have it set for: Tue, Aug 27 at 6:00 PM US Eastern Time.
That could easily be pushed back a day to Wednesday.
Good with me that.
wow this is fucking ridiculous why the fuck you disrespectin me like this
And again @Torn £20
Yes thanks for the free money again
LOL
@BGMaverick not in this year?
Your yearly reminder that this shit is RIGGED and Fro still never wins
2015
2016
2017
2018
@Fro how about have $0 minimum bids on players instead of $1 for FAAB so we can just put the guys we want for free on our auction list thing instead of jumping online as soon as it all clears and grabbing them
I'm in.
Morrison over Myles job done you are welcome Fro
done
I'll be setting up the PayPal pool shortly and people can begin to pay. venmo is also fine.
but for reals im up for being in if a spot opens up.
Cool. I'm fine with booting Myles, I would prefer to have active posters who talk shit in the thread, but he has been in since year 1 so I'll likely give him a short leash to show up and pay. And if people want me to just boot him now, I wouldn't strongly oppose.
Caito has re-emerged as an active poster since June, so that's good.

One thing I forgot to highlight, which I have now highlighted, is that I reduced defensive touchdowns (INT TD, FR TD, Blocked kick TD) from 6 to 4 (rows 3-5 below). If your team scores a defensive TD you used to get 8 total points (6 for the TD plus 2 for the turnover). Now you get only 6 points (4 for the TD plus 2 for the turnover). 8 points seemed overpowered to me, 6 seems more fair, and this helped balance the other changes I made to scoring/yards.

-Draft order will be set once everyone is paid.

still something wrong with the list
I will be paying shortly.
We should implement a rule that when you pay you get to pick your draft spot, so the 1st person to pay gets first dibs, ongoing. Just another "fun" element to add to the mix.
i'm sure people who can't afford to pay immediately because of their financial situation will have a ton of 'fun' with that.
Get Morrison in, every one pay so I can know my draft position thanks
Paid.
I'll pay this week
Yeah end of the week for me too.
Should be end of the week. Worst-case scenario is Friday of next week.
I’ll pay by deadline no worries.
Who did I pick 1st? I can’t remember now.
Fro a better version of Honey Badger's weird idea is to randomise the draft order NOW but keep it hidden, and when someone pays you give them their draft position
Do this please
And make sure I'm not in the bottom 3 for the 5th year in a row too
I don't get why it isn't released until everyone pays.
I also second the suggestion for Morrison to just be put in the league.
It isn't, we are just impatient
yes. good idea.
I do it for a couple reasons.
1. Incentive for everyone to pay in a timely fashion
2. don't want someone to see they have the 12th spot and feel like they don't want to play anymore
People who follow that second reason are simpletons.
Draft order is being set now. I'm using Cewsh's email for verification purposes (he will receive it via email from the random draft generator website).
Your random draft order for 2019:
1. Torn
2. Honey_Badger
3. ????
4. ????
5. ????
6. Fro
7. ????
8. Cewsh
9. ????
10. ????

Aww shit, I got the whole list, ya’ll.
this begs the obvious question. will Torn take Zeke over Saquon
sorry, scratch the word question with certainty, and move the word Torn in front of the word will
WOW you delivered thanks man
Yeah shouldn't be too hard to figure out who I will take
I don't think it's a terrible idea to pick Zeke first anyway.
I wouldn't pick him if it was
Well thats good
Fuck of @Torn
We have a what’s app group for out football game(English football) it’s a good laugh and banter. Thinking @Fro if you might want to set one up. Not sure how it works though with all the international numbers.
I don't mind the 6th pick except I can already anticipate the Melvin Gordon holdout saga coming into play there
RB holding out? That guy will be my pick...
Paid.
You have the #2 pick. Enjoy Saquon
What?! No way.
This isn't a sign of my disinterest in the league but more of Morrison's apparent interest in being in. If Myles is still in and that leaves Morrison out, Morrison can have my spot.
yea Morrison can have Myles's spot.
Cool, cool. Just wanted to throw that out there. Welcome aboard, Morrison.
@Fro
I don’t know how it’s different than bantering in the thread but set it up if you think it’s cool
See your point I just find what’s app easier.
yea I would keep it in the thread but I do already have WhatsApp so I would join. I suppose it would be better for live-in-game shit talking instead of more delayed forum posting. I formally deputize you to organize it and set it up, if you wish.
Ok mate I’ll see if I can get one set up. Think it could be good banter for live action.
