Wow what a loser. Few things piss me off more than people who try to win at all cost disregarding character and integrity.
I'm competetive as you can get but I will not cheat to win. I want to know that when I win it's because I am flat out better. Not that I won by cheating and deep down know you're still better than me.
This guy sucks and should be kicked out of the league for good.

Update for everyone that wanted it.
I raised hell about changing the format the week of the playoffs. He "claimed" that he did not notice that the playoffs were set at four teams (how could he not notice? I noticed first week of the fricking season) which is the ESPN default settings for ten team leagues.
Anyway he claimed he would have changed it to six teams regardless of his place in the league. Which is absolute bullshite. Nobody does that. After more bitching he says he's changing it back to four but he's dropping his entire team to try and frick me over (I would have last waiver claim being in first). Which is also a whole nother level of gay.
We continued bitching at each other and he eventually said he was leaving it at six and I was pissed to the point where I told him to just fricking leave it and I'll beat his dick into the dirt anyway.
So this morning I wake up and have a text saying we're back at four teams.
So there ya go.

Was there anyone besides you raising hell?

I would tell him to give me my money back, quit the league for the year, and he's not allowed in next year. What a douche.

I'm more than likely going to win. My team it's stacked. No way I'm giving up my claim/chance at winning.
Besides we're all friends. I'd rather win and rub it in his face.
PPR
Rivers/luck
Bush
Forte
J Gordon
Pierre Garçon
Jimmy Graham
Flex Cruz/Woodson/Keenan Allen/wright
K, flavor of the week
D same as K

You said you were the commissioner last year.
How many made the playoffs last year?

Six, but I also knew that I needed to make the changes in the settings.
I'm typically the commissioner. Have been since 2005. He jumped the gun and started the league this year.

So it has been 6 every year since 2005? It should be 6 then.

This.... In your OP you made it sound like the league agreed on 4 teams and it always has been 4 teams. When it hasnt.
Its always been 6, and most teams were expecting 6. Just took the commish a while to change it.
I mean did you notify the commish that he needed to change it? If you did and he said its just 4 this year, then yea bitch all you want. But if it was supposed to be 6, but was set at 4 because thats the standard setting, and nobody notified him, i have no problem with the commish changing it. I mean nobody notified him it was messed up.
Sounds like you are angry that he took initiative and started up the league and became the commish this year, instead of you, more than anything. I mean you knew the setting needed to be changed, but didnt notify the guy. And then when he changed it to what it should be, you bitch about it. Jealous this guy stole your thunder as commish...

Yup, in different territory now that he says it's been 6 for the past 9 seasons. Unless it was voted to change it to 4 at the beginning of the year, I would just have assumed it was 6 too.

I didn't clarify. He's actually new to the league.
7 of 10 people in the league are in a group text together. We were talking about getting it started so he made he league. That I have no problem with. I was typically the commish because I could restart the league and add new people as needed but I hate bugging people to join on time and getting the money sent in so it saves me the hassle. I could never be commish again and be happy. So it's not a jealousy thing.
The problem I had was no change was made until he realized he had missed the playoffs. I get a bye with six teams which I'm fine with. I also prefer a six team playoff. Problem I had was changing the setting the week of the playoffs without asking those who actually made the playoffs.
And for the record I had a change of heart and we voted today before kickoff and I was voted down on the six team so we stuck with four.

Or maybe he didn't notice until the playoffs started. Is that hard to believe?

WTF? Then why did you cry your eyes out?

You literally go through each setting when you set up the league. It's pretty hard to frick up the amount of playoff teams considering that's one of the most important things
You can't just change something like that in week 13, especially if it isn't an unanimous league decision.
And, if he didn't play last season, how did he know to change it to 6 teams?

ESPN is very basic. I don't remember having to confirm every single setting when I set up our league. And I fricked up the first time I set the league up. I can see this being an oversight.
And I don't see where the commish is a new player. Must have missed that. I thought they've been together for years.

There are a few tabs you click through when setting up a league . Assuming you go through each one (I mean, you are the commish setting up the league?) then it's hard to miss.
Under schedule, you do the regular season setup and playoff bracket setup.

How is that likely going to win?
I'm in a 12 team PPR and I'd kick your arse.
Peyton
McCoy
Stacy
AJ Green
Marshall
Flex Douglas or Vereen and not likely Ivory
Gronk
Rams/Patriots
Prater
I have Cobb as well and if he was playing i'd be pretty untouchable, which i think i already am.

This. Your team isn't that stacked, brosif.

I'm sure the OP would have mentioned it to the Commissioner if his team was going to finish as the 5th or 6th seed.
