With the way our league currently awards prize money, weeks 1-14 are pretty meaningless for the actual best teams.
As Bulldog pointed out, the entire fantasy football season basically comes down to weeks 15 and 16...so technically the whole season is only two weeks in mind right now.
If a top BYE team has a stinker game(as happens during 16 weeks of Fantasy football) during week 15 then you're TOAST...no shot to win the money.
That's kinda been my whole point. For a 16 week season, way too much emphasis is being put on those last few weeks, simply in the name of having a "playoff."
I feel, and will continue to feel, that rewarding a modest 25% of the prize pool to the team that ends up with the most total points through 16 weeks involves much less luck than rewarding 70% of the prize pool to the team that wins weeks 14-16.
Our last two champs went into the "playoffs":
2018 7-6, 5th in points
2017 8-5, 5th in points
But I'm just a silly "kid" that loves "memes." What do I know?!

What do you think the winner of a playoff is? ....a high scorer only 3 out of 16 weeks. Hell, in some cases they aren't even the high scorer in weeks 14 and 15.
You and a few others are simply too dense to realize y'all are helping me make my point.

Absolutely nothing. Although, everyone already knew that but you.
Hey, you hang on to those participation trophies as hard as you can little guy.

Locked up the BYE and regular season points title last week. My guys are on cruise control until week 15. Now it’s all a matter of luck to decide who wins money. Can’t wait.

What an ironic statement for ATL to make.
Not lucky enough to finish 1st. Must hurt that fragile ego of yours.

All luck for “best fantasy season” is COMPLETELY eliminated in @darryljames30’ H2H TOP 6/BOTTOM 6 league setup @EVOLVE. It is very open and transparent with this setup.

Says the guy who just finished 1-6 with 4 sub 100 scoring weeks. Actually, in this league, your team is a perfect candidate to win all the money this year.
And, finish 1st??? There are 3 weeks left in the season. Under my proposed payout changes, the $300 to the actual best team in the league would not be decided until after week 16. And I said we could do this by overall points OR overall t6b6 record AFTER 16 weeks of play. Sure, it might not be my team, but I’d still like to see the clear-cut best team walking away with significant money each season.
Untouchables or myself could have an off week in week 15(just one week) and then have no shot at the big prize. And that’s exactly what happened to me last year, I finished with the best overall t6b6 record AND most overall points after SIXTEEN weeks and walked away with $0. And guess what, it could very easily happen again this year. Is that a fair system? I don’t think it is. And it’s a very easy fix. That’s what I’ve been trying to explain to you knuckleheads all year.
But it’s cool, we’ll just let another 7-6 team take home all the money for the third year in a row. That totally seems more fair. Plus...it’s how the NFL does it.

As we all did throughout the season. Holy frick you're dense.

Glad you could share in this statement and insult yourself at the same time.

Yes.

You sound like a scared little bitch.

I was just trying to create a more fair system that would reward the best overall season performance.

H2H Top 6/BOTTOM 6...care to elaborate on what you think our playoff settings are and how "all luck" is "COMPLETELY" eliminated?
Before you answer, I'll just warn you, last year it was Evolve who looked like a total dipshit dumbass when he started blasting the commish for rigging games in week 5 when it turned out the dumb mother fricker didn't even know how weekly wins were awarded in this league.
Posted on 12/4/19 at 1:40 pm to ATLsuTiger
Yes I did. I also appologized to the commish. And? Do you try and insult everyone who misunderstands the league rules their first year in? It doesn't invalidate their view on payout.
You're literally the most dumb pathetic piece of shite I've come across on this board. The fact you're going back years to try and insult someone only solidifies further the little bitch that you are.

I was just making sure SoItGoes actually knew the format of our playoffs. I didn't insult him...only you, you dumb frick.
When you agree to play in a league without knowing the rules, and then you go spouting off with some dumb shite, then that makes you a fricking idiot in my eyes.
I, unlike you, always try to back up my arguments with facts.
And the fact is, you're a dumb frick. As evidenced by all of your responses to my proposed payout changes this year, in addition to you trying to call out the commish for rigging games last year, 5 weeks into the season without knowing how a win and a loss was determined.
I call'em like I see'em.
Next time don't go throwing insults around and maybe you won't receive any in return. ;)

I was literally replying directly to you. Soitgoes can speak for himself. Not suprising you didn't understand that given the lack of comprehension you have with just simple reading.

No one gives a frick what you think. As evidenced clearly in this thread by multiple people multiple times. Again, I know reading is hard for you, but try and keep up.

You'd have to actually have the comprehension of what a fact is in order for you to even understand or make an argument. However, you've already proven you're incapable of doing that.

Well this is ironic. Perhaps you should take a course in negotiating. Trying to get people to agree with you by insulting them and their point of view from the start of your proposal is not the way to go about it. You had already lost your argument before it barely got off the ground on that fact alone.
