Wait did suchmoon vote for 25bitcoin buy in lol. Let's do it! Can I borrow 25bitcoin from someone for the buy in?

With that being said September 1st my kid has a soccer tournament all day. If this is the day I will try my best to draft in-between games and/or while they are playing but I can't promise anything so I might have to go on auto draft for a couple of rounds or so. Link I said I'm in so I will make it work one way or another.

Can I ask why certain things are a deal breaker for some? IMO you either would like to participate or you wouldn't right? Should it matter the platform it's on? or if certain things such as PPR or PPFD are in? Or the buyin is too low? too high?

Just saying this is a small buyin for the most part and a way for us to talk shit to each other and have a good time for football season. Everything worked out pretty good last year. Could it be better? Probably, but if the majority votes one way let's just all agree to go with it please. I really enjoyed getting my ass kicked last year and chatting in the discord occasionally.

Not trying to offend anyone, I just wanna have some fun. Had enough bad shit in my life last couple years, so i need some good fun and something to look forward to.

Okay, I updated the table with all the data I have. Still waiting on South Park, ChiBitCTy, and seek3r to vote. @Hhampuz, you also have a couple of items to vote on.

So that's 11 am EST; would be far more ideal for me as well.

Actually it's 10am EST. With Daylight Savings eastern time is currently GMT-5

If that works for you, I'm changing my vote to 15:00GMT. That's 7am in Cali which is perfect for me.

One option I forgot to include for votes was draft timing, but I just added it.

I vote for Sunday September 1st at 4pm Eastern Time. That'll put Hhampuz at 11p, and East Asia at 5am Monday morning, which seems like a fair split.

Actually thats 4 AM where I am now; the worst possible time. I can somewhat manage if we bump it up one hour.

Code:

Commitment? In
Platform? Yahoo
PPFD? Yes
PPR? Yes
Entry Fee? 2mBTC
Three Payouts? Yes (as described by morvillz7z)
Draft Time? Sep 1, 11 am EST*

In terms of platform I don't care I use multiple sites. Never used sleeper so I'd be open to use it. PPFD I'm a no. PPR yes. Entry fee, let's make it interesting and make it 1btc buy in lol. No I'm all good for anything. $100 equivalent is always a nice benchmark. Payouts first and second only. Championship game gets paid everyone else needs to try harder! Those are my votes but I'm in regardless. Can't wait

Meh.

I'm in if we do it on Sleeper as I'll be playing other leagues there and don't want to do multi platform. It's fine with me if majority want to stay on yahoo and that'll make it an even number for you guys

The NFL seems to be testing the hawk-eye technology to measure the line of gain during preseason. Don't know how i feel about this...

Considering how modern technology could take the human/referee error out of the equation and speed up game-time decisions, I think it's long past due.

As for the FFL, only seek3r has not responded. We currently have 10 confirmed with suchmoon, but I don't see why we can't have an odd number of teams if seek3r is still interested. bbc.reporter seems determined to drop out, unfortunately.

I think most of the settings are fine, but we had some contention between Point Per Reception and Point Per First Down last year, so I'll put that up for a vote. The other issue is the platform, it's between Sleeper and Yahoo at this point. Entry fee and payouts are also worth voting on, so here's the list to reply with.

Code:

Commitment? In or Out
Platform? Yahoo or Sleeper
PPFD? Yes or No
PPR? Yes or No
Entry Fee? List your preferred fee
Three Payouts? Yes or No (Third place get's entry fee back, remainder is split 70% for the winner and 30% for second place.)
Draft Time

I've filled in some answers from previous responses, but please respond to all questions above so they're all in one post.

The commish, could you please send PMs to suchmoon and seek3r and see if they want to play? Without them, we are nine and will need to find one more to join, presuming bbc.reporter does not play. This needs to be done asap.

I'm in.

Edit: I should clarify - if no changes. I would not have the time and the energy to learn how to use a new site or anything like that, sorry. So I'm in if it's yahoo and similar rules as last year.

Yay, got my first preseason bet right despite the shit weather at the Patriots game, hopefully it's an omen of things to come this season.

-----------------

Yo, are we doing the fantasy league or not? It's three weeks till a possible draft date, and we're absolutely nowhere.

Then, like we've done in the past, let's vote on everything important: platform, entry fee, league settings, draft date/time, etc. (i know most of us have already expressed their likes and preferences) but still...let's do it properly.

There's no time, people!!!

Football is BACK, baby!

Congrats boys, we made it through the doldrums of another gruesomely boring offseason.

Patriots vs. Panthers right now, 4 mins into the 1st quarter.

Ahhh... suddenly life has more profound reason & there's a deeper meaning to existence.

Quote from: bbc.reporter on August 08, 2024, 12:45:40 AM

I also do not want everyone to lower the entry fee for me to join. What I will do is practice NFL fantasy by joining other leagues or play in Duelbits and maybe I can join you next year for any entry fee if there is a slot.

Haven't you already played for like 3 season with us now? That's some serious practice already. Besides, the best testing is done on the mainnet. That's always been my approach to development.

I'm willing to put in an extra 10% to help bbc cover his entry.

I thank you and everyone for your concern. However, please do not misunderstand. I can pay the entry fee if I am willing. I am only playing this to encourage myself to learn more about this sport and because this is something very fun to do with the other participants. But if the entry fee is high for me and it appears that this is becoming serious, I do not like to play feeling afraid like this.

Sleeper seems very easy, even more so than Yahoo, let's make the switch. There is no time like the present!

I'll do mock drafts with anyone who's on the fence.

I am so confident that everyone will like Sleeper more that I'm almost willing to pay peoples buy-ins if at the end they still say they like yahoo or espn more. The beautiful thing about Sleeper is that its owned by a company who actually gives a shit about fantasy. Fantasy football is not something thats that important to yahoo or espn. They are large businesses with a lot more thing to worry about versus sleeper is all about fantasy. I think the most impressive thing about them is they take *good suggestions from the community and implement where necessary, and quickly.

Hey, is there a way to snch a yahoo league with sleeper so those that want to use the app can yet still have it on yahoo?

That’s a good question, let me look in to it.
