Commish says we are charging from H2H to scoring format.

Never played that 50/50 win/loss based on scoring each week.

Is there a huge difference?

It is still like head to head but better. TDFL was the first league to do it that I am aware of.

I enjoy head to head, but i think a good way to make it a little more fair is to reward H2H winner a W, and also award a win if they finish in the top half of points that week, or a L if they finish in bottom six.

This way, someone that loses 135-130 gets 1 win and 1 loss that week, because their point total was in the top half that week.

Someone that wins 67-65 would also get 1 win and 1 loss for that week because they scored in the bottom 6.

This helps balance out strength of schedule, and would help prevent a team with pure luck that finishes in the bottom of points scored, but had the least amount of points against from making playoffs over a team more deserving

it shouldn't alter your draft strategy at all.

It definitely rewards the consistently good teams vs. guys that get lucky on matchups

Im all for eliminating as much of the luck factor involved in fantasy football and this is a big help. I wish I could get the guys in my leagues to think likewise.

How do the playoffs work in the scoring and scoring + H2H formats?

Not sure. I know H2H was different from the format we had the past two years. Goes by W-L record, then its total points scored as the tiebreaker. Once in playoffs its all about scoring the most points against your opponent. Thought it was fair. 12 man league.

So I was interested in how this would have affected our league this year and I spent the last 30 minutes or so figuring out the standings in this new proposed scoring format. The conclusion I came to was that the same 6 teams would make the playoffs with only the 4 and 6 seeds flip flopping in the new format. I get that there is definitely an outlier every now and then but usually these things tend to even themselves out over the course of a year.
