I reactivated the league. If it's not a lot of turnover then we can roll with another year. I do want to change the format though. Would like some type of head to head format to see if that makes the league more active. So either straight head to head or a hybrid. Depends on what everyone else thinks though. Also let me know if there are any other changes you would like us to consider.


I came into this one completely unprepared last year and didn't even realize it wasn't head to head. Not that it mattered because my team was straight arse.

I'll give it another shot if the league doesn't fold.

Dont we have a hybrid now? Head to head being top 6 scores vs low 6 scores? What other hybrid are you thinking about? Are we trying to put the best teams in the playoffs or stoke more activity?

I think regardless its a pretty chill league overall minus the occasional disagreements so not sure if it matters.

Oh and of course im in.

Evolve there is a hybrid format on Sleeper and many other sites that basically mean you have a chance at two wins every week (you can either go 2-0, 1-1, or 0-2).

You get a point for having a top 6 score but also another point for winning a H2H matchup.

This is meant to be more fair if say the top 2 teams play each other, instead of the second highest scoring team just getting an L for the week, they would go 1-1.

It does try to do a better job of putting in the best teams while still giving people that weekly H2H matchup if they like watching a matchup against a specific opponent.


I was skeptical about it but have enjoyed it. Sleeper doesn’t offer straight up T6/B6 scoring so I think this format is worth it if it means the league can move to Sleeper, which is by far the best site to host a league imo.

If there’s a vote, this has mine.

I'm in again. Any format is fine with me, I roll with it since this is my only auction league.

Hybrid is the way to go

H2H and T6/B6 each week.

No one can gripe if they have a top 6 scoring team but lose to a higher scoring team that week because they will go 1-1 instead of 0-2.

Plus it usually means the top 6 overall scoring teams make the playoffs

Sleeper is hands down 100 times better than any other platform

I'm in. Using a hybrid scoring system on Sleeper is fine by me.

Looks like we are still waiting to hear from 4 people.
I did just set up the league on Sleeper. Im looking over everything to see if I like it.

If we need a couple of people let me know and I’ll ask in some of the other TD sleeper leagues I’m in. Some really good managers and most have done an auction draft before

Willing to play on either platform, enjoy sleeper signinldicantly more with their chat function, fan of their median win function.

However, I would rather not play in a league with kicker or defense roster spots, would league be open to removing (potentially increasing the number of flex spots to compensate)?

Looking forward to participating again
