I'm back. I think we should switch back to QS. Its not a perfect stat but I still prefer over wins.

I think part of the reason for wins was a shortened season.

The saves + holds from 2019 was something we tried and felt like it wasn’t the best idea after all.

I'm back

I like QS and SV+HD. I liked having a larger universe of RPs with value. Saves alone seem more fickle/luck-based to me.

So far, we have nine owners who have responded and everyone is back for 2021. Here are the people that we have not heard from yet.

LSUMatman - The Mudhens
Floridatigah
TThomasJR
CM84 - The Disabled List

I guess March 28th would sense for the draft, since that is a Sunday evening and it is during the Sweet 16 (on Saturday and Sunday, not Thursday and Friday this year) and not the first two rounds of March Madness. Is anyone opposed to that day?

We will definitely vote on any rule changes and payout again, and I will post this exact same message on the TD thread.

Yeah, there’s an opening. It’s anywhere from 10-14 in general and we had 13 last year, so there’s a spot.

Same. How about Monday 29, Tuesday 30, Wednesday 31st night? Also can we make it 9pm EST. I may or may not have the baby to sleep by 8pm.

Okay, the 28th is OUT. I’ll send out a google form with every possible date between the 21st and Opening Day.

As for time, we can do it by 15 minute intervals. Seems like we always propose 8 and then push it to 9.

I think we have heard back from everyone but CM84 - The Disabled List to return + Drunken Clams will be joining.

Any other rule changes we should vote on (besides the ones below? I will be getting out a Google Form with draft dates and buy-in amount pretty soon this week.

- The IP limit remained at 1,400 in 2019. Should we drop it to 1,300?
- Should we add any extra IL spots due to Covid-19?
- In 2020, we switched to wins (instead of QS) and saves (instead of saves + holds). Should we stick with wins and saves?
