So I've been busy this morning setting up the league. The season is almost ready to start we need to get this done. I have done the Score Settings as was posted in the other thread. I have set the Roster Positions as well and this is how it looks now (subject to change). Roster Positions:Quarterback: 1 Running Back: 2 Wide Receiver: 2 Tight End: 1 Kicker: 1 Defense: 1 Flex-WR/RB: 1 Flex-WR/RB/TE: 1 Bench: 6 Reserve: 1 I have not done anything to the Standings Tiebreaker, for now it is set on Points For (Was like that when I created the league) We do have 3 options you can have: 1) Points For (I know you hate this Jeff) 2) Division Record 3) Head to Head If we ever start getting the members of the league here we can have a vote on this.What say you all?

Perhaps we need to pick a date and maybe look for replacement owners. I mean what do we have left a month and a half?

Don't we still have work to do with the keepers? I just set the keepers to 3 thought I did that this mornin' but must have forgot to hit submit. I guess we can address those as we go but we need to get people here to do so.

Yes we do need to pick a date I will do that tomorrow and then let everybody know. I know the date of Dive's NFL Big Cheesy so it will be before that. As for the replacement owners I would really like to keep those 2 spots open for DirtyBird (he's been with us a long time) & Indydave.

Okay I have set the Draft Date it will be on Aug 31'2019 at 3:00pm EDT. I need someone to do a random draft for the league then let me know the results in a PM which I will then make a thread with the actual draft order.

Head to head 1st tiebreaker. Then division. Then points
So when you posted this Jeffrey...Me and Dan was the only one who chimed in.
Naturally Im going to vote for and input for H2H as the tiebreaker everytime. But I always go along with whatever,even though it really was demoralizing to have had to play an extra game instead of a bye at the NFFL league last year. And I had to play Miss Venus of all people. But I did it anyway,even though I grumbled about it. If someone ask me what I think,Im going to say H2H every time.
Now,,,If Im not asked....I feel like the LM can do whatever he so chooses. After all he runs the league. Its a thankless job. (Thank you Jeffrey for all your hard work in these leagues)
Number two - I must say that I was under the impression that Jeffrey was going to change the NFFL settings to H2H. He told me that he changed them and I was happy about it naturally. But when he told me,he didnt specify what league,I guessed he was talking about the NFFL league.
Turns out that he changed them to H2H in the GY too. But it isnt like he didnt ask about it.
Then Beverly starts having a coronary about where shes at in the standings after 2 freaking weeks and not even giving the H2H a chance to even play out. My God we have only had 2 weeks and you're already having a hissy fit about the standings???
Thats not something to get worked up about. I just lost Drew Brees for half the year!! THAT is something to get worked up about!
Whats the big freaking deal anyway? We all have to play under the same settings. Its not like one person is getting an advantage over the rest of the league. For all you know these settings may benefit you in the end,but you sure as hell aint gonna know after two weeks of football. Seems like you're just blowing your horn cause you're bored.
I honestly did not know the H2H had been changed in the GY. But as you can see in this thread,Jeffrey could only get 2 people to respond to a question.
As far as Im concerned,nobody has a right to say nothing about the settings now. Especially those who decide to show up a week before the draft.
Beverly...deal with it ok? Youre always complaining about your team and you need to quit playing FF but as soon as you win a game,you're fucking worried about standings in week 2? ? But the week before you wanted to quit because you lose.
Its time for a change anyway. We been under points scored for several years now,it doesnt hurt to change it up. I been dealing with those settings since we all started playing FF,so YOU can deal with it too.
Leave Jeffrey alone and quit going on and on. Hes the LM hes made the settings and its done. He asked for input a long time ago!

Thank you Jeffrey for all your hard work in these leagues Thanks Jeff. Talk about having the wind knocked out of your sails, as I posted in the Week #2 Thread I think I've been hit harder than anyone when it comes to injuries so far in this young season. On the WW/FA list there's little to nothing left to try an find something to replace what you've lost. To top that I had a game won taken away from me because of a stat correction not to mention the grief I got making a trade and if that wasn't enough then I get grief over the tie-breaker. I know this is only heading into week 3 but the season can't end soon enough for me.

This is a pretty fucked up thing to say. I love the game, but I don't wanna be where I'm not wanted. So why don't y'all take a vote to replace me? My own leagues ain't going anywhere. First off, all you harp on is 'after just 2 weeks, bitch and moan bla bla bla'. You obviously didn't read where Craig said it took 5 or 6 weeks for the stupid software to get it straight. I said I did not know that, and still hate the H2H but I dropped it. Let me reiterate, I'd hate it if it benefitted me. Yes, we all play under the same setting, but if (as I thought) the software was not working properly, and you could not figure out what it was doing, then it's not really fair to anybody. I addressed you specifically @ Hive league, asking "Jeppers, what I was trying to say is that the software is goofy. And if we wait til Dec to figure out what the software did, logging each W-L matchup, it's no small task. Why would you assume that if the standings are incorrect now, they will correct themselves later?' and you didn't answer me. Craig answered me later. I last followed with "Why is it listing me as 7th, but Craig (5th) is still listed below me? So it looks like it knows I'm ahead of you, but... " - acknowledging that maybe the software was doing its thing. And that was the end of it. BTW, you say you were naturally all for H2H, so voted yes right away. What do you like about it? I honestly don't get it, but admittedly, you're surely not alone. I do not complain about my teams much more than anyone else. That's what we all do, that's part of the fun, lamenting the injuries, suspensions, benching guys that exploded, and general suckage. Jeffrey started a new thread at Yahoo BC to do the same, and so what I thought nothing of it, and was right there to co-commiserate a bit. That's what we all do. No one (at least not me) ever even hinted that those things are unfair. That's 'shit happens, tough cookies'. It's apples and oranges to compare software that doesn't work. BTW, I didn't see this post til late last night, and didn't feel like dealing with this crap before going to bed, but I did look for said thread asking for input on H2H and couldn't find it. What thread is it buried in? You know damn well I've been here most every day, save a brief moving stretch. Oh, I'm a lot less bored here than I ever was in Philly. I'm off to pickleball. FWIW, I'll live with the setting, no further bitching. So you guys do what you wanna do, let me know. EDIT: Jeffrey, I appreciate all you do, and sorry to cause a bigger fuss than I ever anticipated. Very sorry you feel like you want the season over. I actually felt the same when I saw what the software did, and expected these 'glitches' or whatever it is to be permanent, and that we'd have to go through each and every game to figure out what was what under H2H settings. We can hardly wait all year for FF to get going, and the last thing I want is to ruin it for you. So do what ya gotta do.

This is a pretty fucked up thing to say. I love the game, but I don't wanna be where I'm not wanted. So why don't y'all take a vote to replace me? Nobody suggested that you be replaced. I guess you're putting words in my mouth now. YOU are the one whos always wanting to quit playing because of losses or when things dont go right for you. Yeah I might bitch when I lose but never have I ever said anything about quitting. I been playing since 1989 and probably will til my dying day. Im bitching about Brees because Brees has never been hurt before. But i realize it part of the game. I got Wentz but I dont trust him nearly as much as Brees. So yes another year of not winning a championship in the GY is probably on tap. I'll never quit though,just like I didnt quit when I got...(as you say screwed) last year when I didnt get a bye in the NFFL. Thats what ticked me off more than anything is you saying you got screwed when the standings hasnt reflected where you should be. WTF? how in the blue hell are you being screwed? After two weeks? But this is what Im talking about with you. Somebody calls you out on your BS and you assume we want to replace you? Gimme a fucking break. I have been your biggest advocate and you should know this ...hence why Eddie is no longer in this league and Im no longer on his proboard.

Gimme a fucking break. I have been your biggest advocate and you should know this ...hence why Eddie is no longer in this league and Im no longer on his proboard. lmao. Good grief, don't play semantics with me. Putting words in your mouth? I emboldened it in red so you wouldn't miss it, yet... I don't see how in any way shape or form "you need to quit playing FF" could be construed any other way, your words. I did not threaten to quit here. Please stop bringing up something that happened 4 or 5 years ago at CTM. I don't even recall what happened there or at the old GY league, but I suspect you are over-exaggerating. But I can guarantee you, it had zero to do with me losing matches or players hurt. That is outrageously ludicrous, and not who I am. Like I said before, I may bitch and (be)moan more than most, but it is in the spirit of co-commiseration, and starting a conversation, not to be truly negative. For the 3rd or 4th time, I didn't know the software took 5 or 6 weeks or more to correctly capture the standings. I let it drop in the league chat, satisfied that much would at least be resolved. Then you come here and post all this that I should quit. You still didn't tell me where the thread was that asked about H2H, where only 2 responded. I missed it. Where is it? I appreciate you being my strongest advocate, and if that's true, I'm in trouble, cuz you sure don't sound like it now.
