Ok... Vicks is going to be off/on sparingly so I guess I'll start the new thread and run the draft. Vicks can start the season-long league thread etc..

do we have a commissioner for the Championship league?

I could probably do it, or at least make the draft thread so we can get started, if no one else is.

ETA: I see AZBayouBengal is the commish. My question about starting the draft thread still stands, though.

Have we established the minimum # of players a team must carry at all positions (i.e. a team must have 2 GKs on roster at all times)?

Good question:

Yes, you must draft and keep 2 GK's at all times. We also discussed having a maximim number of players from any one EPL team but we never set any rules in place. We can still do that if you guys want to....

I don't see a need to make this rule. That would be a pain to try and monitor as well. I think just a minimum # of position players makes sense.

2 GKs
3 Defs
4 Mids
3 Fwds

That's 12 so it gives teams 3 spots to play around with. What do y'all think?

The number on each epl is just something that was thrown out for discussion, no biggie.

I dont think the minimum position rules are crucial tbh, except for 2 GK's. By forcing everyone to keep an extra GK, that leaves 10 more field players in the mix for free agent drop/adds each week. We can set minimums if you guys want but we didnt last year except for GK and it wasnt an issue really.

Min 4 defenders since the formation allows for 3-5 and you need a sub at least.

Also only 2 fwd necessary imo same reasoning 1-3 forwards allowed

I can't remember.. I wouldn't think anyone would need a rule to have a minimum of 4 def 4 mid and 2 fwds though. You'd just be mildly retarded to run without a sub for every position

We are using premierleague.com's fantasy scoring, right?

Yes. Without it, scoring would take too damn long and have a ton of mistakes.

The key is to put your entire roster on your watch list and view by most recent week. Then, just add your score and done.
