Ladies and gentlemen. Boys and girls.
It's time for the 1st ever... 1st annual...
Monero Fantasy Football League!
Due to the pretty good turnout of
Monero Madness, I figured that hopefully we'll get the same good turn out and not dread the upcoming winter months with a good ol' fashion fantasy football league.
This thread is just to be able to see how many people would want to participate, but the tricky part is that for fantasy football to work, we need to get an even amount of players (6,8,10,etc.). This is why I want to get word out there early so we can have some time to find more people as we get closer to football season.
As of right now we still got some things to decide on:
1.Buy in: I'm suggesting a 1 xmr buy in, but if people want to do more or less, let me know in this thread so we can discuss.
2.Escrow: Since we had Jwinterm hold the "pool wallet" for Monero Madness, and the fact that I personally just trust the guy not to pull any bamboozles or flim-flams; I say we use him as escrow.
But if someone else wants to recommend someone to hold funds (
that is trustworthy) for the league we can do that too since Jwinterm will be participating.
3.Trophy: I'm willing to purchase a nice little trophy for the winner. I'm thinking it would be pretty cool to have a trophy passed around over the years to the winners and have their names (pseudonyms) engraved on plaques. I'm thinking 1st place gets the "Golden Barolo"? I'm really interested to hear peoples thoughts on this, so please let me know below.
4.Scoring: Since I'm not quite sure if anyone is
super into fantasy football or not, I just wanted to make sure if people were ok with the scoring system that ESPN had on default. I copied and pasted it
here. If anyone has any recommendations of changes, let me know.
5.Draft Time: This is flexible. I still don't know my schedule for work and I'm sure everyone has to figure out what times they are available as well. I went ahead and set the draft time for Saturday, August 12th @ 5 PM EST or 2 PM PDT. Let me know what day/time will work for people and we'll figure out a time everyone can dedicate at least 2 hours or so to drafting players.
More ideas to make this better will be well received. Please post in this thread if you will like to participate and state how much you are willing to put in the pot (1 xmr?). After you post on here, you can also include your email you want me to send an invite link too, or you could just PM it to me. From there you can sign up, join the league, and I will put your name below:

You can verify that you have paid by using
https://xmrchain.net/For example (using the link above), here is mine:
1. Enter in the
Transaction Hash: b3b1fca595bb912a6477d3aaee6cb3379571a6fa06ee104555f4ff15dc29b354 ... then click 'Search'.
- You can see that something was in fact sent there, but you can't see where too or how much (thanks Monero!). So in order to verify I didn't short change the wallet, scroll down to 'Decode outputs'.
2. Enter in the
Private View Key: 5dbecbe20690535114d70b78184e0553ebc7ae2dec2e3c657ad94c55e0463e0f

Once, you have sent 1 XMR to the "Monero Fantasy Football League" wallet, post your transaction hash here so everyone can be able to verify it in this thread and I will update you to the list as well as send you a PM with your email address and I will send you a personal invite to the league's Yahoo page.
This is a
WINNER TAKE ALL event.
But, when it comes down to the championship game, the two people who are playing
can negotiate a deal if they want too. Like for example, the two people in the championship don't want to risk losing everything since they've gotten so far. So the two people talk to each other and negotiate a deal that the person who wins gets 75% of the pot and loser gets 25% of the pot. That's how my fantasy league has always done it and think it's a pretty good system and interesting to see what the two people end up doing at the end.
Current Jackpot Is: 5 XMR
