Can you elaborate and give a better alternative?

If its anywhere close just do 50/50 split

I was 65%, we are splitting 50/50.

Then you have to define “close”

Mine was at 95%. The only thing I can think to offer the guy is to roll with Diggs total this week. I’m fairly confident he’ll get the 6 needed or offer him a 95-5 split but I don’t think an even split should be on the table

Am I wrong waiting. Have Allen and Knox. Allen could easily put up 40+points to cut the lead he has on me. Knox has also been playing well. He has Chase but he could have injury etc or put up only 13 like last week.

How do you determine that it’s 50/50?

I feel the best solution would be to give each player in last nights game their “predicted score” by the site. Maybe their score minus 10%

A lot of leagues this is only semifinal weekend.

So if some guy have Allen and Chase going he could still get some points. As it is, he would lose because they scored nothing.

I was down 60 at the time of suspension. I have Mixon, Chase, Singletary and Hurst while he's done. Sleeper says I have a 19% chance of winning. I agreed to a split of 80-20 of the money for first if the game isn't played so long as I get the 11th pick in the draft.

There’s no boom/bust factor in this scenario as there’s a winner and loser. Allowing for a % gets you closer to expected value.

Leagues that have semifinals this week should really reconsider their format next year.

No, you would assign a % that each team would win and split the money based on that % after both teams get second place money

If I were commissioner I would just go with whatever fantasy platform your league uses (Yahoo, ESPN, Sleeper, etc..) decides to do. Sleeper had already put out a statement on what they intend to do. Other platforms will follow. If someone in the league doesn't like that blame it on the platform.

CBS Sports awarded no points and converted all players to bye week. Points week closed….

my opponent ended up deciding to live or die by Higgins. If the game gets replayed he takes his total for the game. If not he takes his week 18 total. If he doesn’t play in either game he’ll concede.

Our league is very low key so it wasn’t a brutal decision really.

I had Chase and Bass to play last night, all opponent's players already played. I was down 7.8 going into the game, 86% win probability. I got 3 from Bass before the game was stopped so still down 4.8, but 86% win prob. My league and opponent are pushing for leaving the final score as is which would result in me losing. Curious if anyone else is experiencing a similar situation where a team is losing but was projected to win handily and how its being handled.

What should I do guys?

I'm up by 7.16 in PPR. I have Singletary and he has Gabe Davis. I'm on Sleeper with 86% probability with Singletary and Davis projecting same 8.6 pts remainder of game (if played).

Commish is leaving it to me and opponent. My opponent wants to split pot 50/50.


Just an update on my situation, I said I wanted to use Sleeper default (I win). Commish decided to put to vote without his vote. I lost 1-10 in voting. Everyone said projecting to win by 7pts was too close and unfair to declare winner in such a close, non finished game.

So me and opponent are splitting 50/50.

Yes and still working out how to solve. No resolution yet. Team A has no players left and was up 8 points, Team B has Josh Allen left. I think all have agreed if the game plays, the points for Allen will decide it. It’s the what if the game isn’t played, what happens that hasn’t been agreed on.

Maybe it was covered, I like the idea of splitting based on the projections. But if combining the money from both 1st and 2nd then need to make sure the second place guy gets at least what second should pay out.

As in if 1st gets 400 and 2nd gets 100 for a total of 500, but the split is 85% to 15% then the second place guy would only get $75. Just something that popped up.


Thats now how you calculate it if the 2 teams are splitting.

Give 2nd place their $100. Then take the $300 difference between 1st and 2nd and multiply that by whatever percentage split. So if doing 85-15, then 2nd would get $145 and 1st would get the remaining $355

What’s your qb scoring? Team B wins probably >90% of the time.
