The league will more or less remain the same as last year. The crux of the league is that it is a different format from the average fantasy league.

This 12 man league is a non-keeper roto auction on ESPN with FAAB that processes daily at 10:00 AM CST. Categories are R/HR/RBI/SB/OPS and QS/K/ERA/WHIP/S.

The league buy-in is in $65 with $15 going towards the bottom-feeder penalty. The payout is 425/150/100 for the top three and -5/-10/-15 for the bottom three.

All 12 members have paid:

1. Vick's Kennel Club
2. Mr. Wiseguy
3. Papz - Captain Kickass
4. Thomas PED Easy as 123
5. Honkus - Hot Stove
6. PSU2LSU - Nyjer Please
7. FloridaTigah
8. Prison Mike
9. RPG37 - Fighten' Gonzos
10. Hullabaloo
11. Mr. Cringleberry - Hingle McCringleberry
12. KD1036 - Tubby Terror Squad

are we going to increase FAAB from more then 2x a week? This was discussed a little at the end of the year but I don't think we came to a resolution.

That is exactly what our discussion will be. I wonder if daily FAAB would work.

From PSU

quote:

The way you can institute a bottom feeder penalty is have everyone prepay. For instance everyone pays $65 instead of the normal $50. At the end of the year everyone gets back $15 except for the last place team. That $15 gets mixed into the payout pot. Just a thought.



I like it

Way too much work. How about this, whoever finishes last pays the damn bottom feeder or they are banished from TD leagues for life

It will get to 12. We just need to discuss bottom feeder possibilities and potential FAAB changes.

Are there any things that need to be addressed?

The only one doing the work is VKC. If he's fine with the extra work of holding $10-$15 and redistributing at the end of the year then I don't see the problem.

I have no problems throwing in a few extra bucks. If someone feels strongly about not throwing in the money, I don't think its a big deal either.

I have no problem with it. My only concern is the number of payments I can make in a day. Does Paypal limit that number?

If we do a bottom feeder, what about a penalty of 5/10/15 for the bottom three spots because it is still easy to get next to last if there is a totally inactive team. All of the bottom feeder money will go to first place.

The other option is 15 to first, 10 to second, and 5 to third. I like the idea of a bottom feeder in roto. It sucks that we need to do it though.

The first step is just to see how many we have.

Me too, especially since first only received 4/7 of the winnings last year ($400).
