is it possible to do 7 or 9 categories to avoid ties?

Think I’m gonna keep the draft time as is. I’ll mull Over adding another category. I find 8 cat the best. Head to head winner doesn’t matter as much as head to head category record so a tie won’t really matter in the end

We got 8 it’s on
― de-mamba mentality (Spottie), Sunday, 20 October 2019 16:49 (five years ago) link
please just don’t change the settings again, I initially assumed it was 8 category then saw yesterday it was points and so I redid my rankings accordingly and so now I learn that was a total waste of time

Sorry evol I dunno how it changed I never set it as a points league so maybe that was the default and I never set it up right. 8 cat will be the way.

no worries, just glad we're all on the same page now.

About an hour til draft time y’all I hope you’re geared up and ready to draft the best team possible.

so am I correct in surmising that we can adjust our lineups every day in this league? in other words you don't have to use the same lineup for an entire week? I couldn't find anything that would enable me to lock in a lineup for a whole week so I'm assuming this is the case, but maybe I just overlooked something.
― Evans on Hammond (evol j), Monday, 21 October 2019 14:00 (five years ago) link
correct. but if you want there is a 'start active players' button on the top left (or its the lightning button on the app) which lets you set the active players for the day or for the rest of the week. if you set it and then make a trade or waiver pickup then i think it resets it.

Set those lineups boys! lightning button is your best friend.
― de-mamba mentality (Spottie), Friday, 25 October 2019 00:21 (five years ago) link
yeah that was pretty smart, forgot I needed to reset after picking someone up
― Jeff Bathos (symsymsym), Friday, 25 October 2019 06:10 (five years ago) link
at least I saved myself from Eric Gordon going 4/19

hey y'all let's do it
if we are establishing a precedent of multiyear participation, what are ppl's thoughts about keepers?
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Tuesday, 1 December 2020 14:57 (three years ago) link
yah for the crew we had last time i auto-renewed the league with the 8 of us. We can add some more so if anyone else wants in let me know. Or if one of the OGs cant do it also let me know.
― Spottie, Tuesday, 1 December 2020 16:29 (three years ago) link
I'm down...keepers might be tough if anybody ever quits, but would be fun. As long as I'm not keeping last season's team
― Wayne Grotski (symsymsym), Tuesday, 1 December 2020 18:41 (three years ago) link
yah i like the idea of keepers but with a transient group it will be hard. think i'll just keep it as is for this league.
― Spottie, Tuesday, 1 December 2020 18:51 (three years ago) link
Works for me. A zoom draft would be cool. I missed the draft night zoom but would love to put some faces (and real names) to all you fine ballers
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Tuesday, 1 December 2020 22:34 (three years ago) link
yeah i don't see a renew my team type function but i'm in as well
― Clay, Tuesday, 1 December 2020 23:32 (three years ago) link
I think i just renewed and it says yall are in again but i'll look more into it soon
― Spottie, Tuesday, 1 December 2020 23:40 (three years ago) link
i think it's fine! just thought i remembered in previous years each player had to press a "yep, I'm back" button or whatever
― Clay, Tuesday, 1 December 2020 23:44 (three years ago) link
I think yahoo does automatic renewals now. Down for the zoom draft too.
― Wayne Grotski (symsymsym), Wednesday, 2 December 2020 00:06 (three years ago) link
zoom draft should be good. initial thought is sunday night Dec 20th. Usually the later the better for me but im on MST.
― Spottie, Wednesday, 2 December 2020 00:16 (three years ago) link
we should prob nail down the draft date/time bc apparently the season starts in a week (?!?)
― Clay, Monday, 14 December 2020 03:11 (three years ago) link
Yah I’ll nail it down tomorrow during work
― Spottie, Monday, 14 December 2020 05:15 (three years ago) link
Sunday looks good for me! East coast here but 3 young kids so all bets are off with best times. schedule as you will
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Monday, 14 December 2020 16:06 (three years ago) link
i'd rather not do keepers but i'll play either way
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Monday, 14 December 2020 17:36 (three years ago) link
yah not doing keepers i decided.
― Spottie, Monday, 14 December 2020 17:40 (three years ago) link
