Edward says: These scoring settings for D/ST & Kickers must be adjusted next season if you care that I stay or not. This is ridiculous, even though it worked in my benefit this week, it takes away from Integrity of league whom those do good in draft process only to get beat by some streaming D/ST or Kicker. Mark my words. This shit needs to change back to whatever normal standards apply to D'ST & Kickers.

I'm addressing this issue here where it should be instead of the league page.
1.) First and foremost do not threaten, bully or demand the settings to be changed in order for you to stay or leave.
2.) The settings for D/ST & Kickers have been in place for the last 3 years an nothing has been said up until now. I've done the research & math an in that 3 year time period the D/ST have scored over 30 points only 5.5% (out of 50 games). The kickers over that same period have not put up any real big points.
3.) "it takes away from Integerity of the league whom those do good in draft process only to get beat by some streaming D/ST or Kicker" Wow really. A.) Everyone does or should know the settings an draft accordingly also if you're lucky enough to draft 1 of the top defenses or kickers you won't need to be streaming that much before the bye weeks.
Need I remind you that this is a custom league with custom settings. If you want standard scoring then I suggest you join a managed league where some show up for the draft an half are absent after the first couple weeks.

A friend of mine at work, Cowgirls fan BTW, was shocked about the performance of the Cowgirls defense and won his game despite starting Joe Burrows.
Eye read it as the rantings of Eddie, but Eye like Eddie ranting. The Packers got me over 30pts Eye think. 5.5% of the time sounds legit to me, and Eddie will stick it out this year. So maybe he'll come around or maybe he won't. Eye also think fuck week one and decisions based upon week one. Eye like how he misspelled "Integrity," btw. Eye don't know if on purpose or not. Effective either way, lol.
Eye was pretty mad about my own Kelce decision but had to do it. Week One hijinks? IDK.

If anything I'm more pissed off with the NFL.com interface and denying any movement of Kamara to any IR before week one. Eye consulted people on Twitter and could have made a move before Toney turned into one of the worst dudes I've ever seen on a football field. But now my roster is safer than before. I'll still probably drop or trade Toney but I'm not really ranting about any of it. Eye made my own adult decision and maybe I'll eat it in week 14 or whenever.
Eye think play around the numbers. Getting mad about the numbers in week one, particularly when owning the Dallas defense? Well Eye understand his qualms as he understood them. But if you're being truthful about no change to league settings, I'd be thankful for such luck. Anyway, a little week one drama but Eye see no need to justify it unless it continues in some kind of weird way.
Eye recall talk of adjustments to kickers last season, but nothing came of it right?

Anyway, a little week one drama but Eye see no need to justify it unless it continues in some kind of weird way. Eye recall talk of adjustments to kickers last season, but nothing came of it right? Yeah, I was projected to win that match by a lot. Was I sad the Cowboys D got an unprecedented 66 pts? Of course. Did it ruin my life, my week, my day? No. Agreed, you DO play around the numbers. I've never cared how many of what you draft either. If the LM/league doesn't like the results you change it -like 3 WRs 1 flex vs. previous 2 WR 2 flex. I don't care. Draft or stream as you see fit, it's within the rules. You can probably set a max for any position too. I don't like it, but really don't care either. Draft 12 RBs for all I care. Something else has gotta give. Read the rules and strategize accordingly. I adjusted the kickers 2 (?) seasons ago. Made it 1.5 pts for a PAT, upgraded from 3 to 4 pts for a 40+ kick, and 6 pts for 50+ yds. Somewhat generous, but brings more relevance and balance to the position IMO in light of our other upgrades. Never had a problem with not starting a kicker. There is a 'wait and see if it matters' strategy to that too. A little upgrade there alters that strategy as well, as your best options will likely be taken. It's a small gamble. And within the rules. Some leagues require the K, oh well, decisions decisions.

What a joke with this bullshit, like a bulletin point with all this nonsense. Fuck your bulletin points. All I was saying doesn't matter anymore. Count me out of this cowardly shit next season. EDIT: Me and Jeffrey have talked. We agree to disagree. We're cool.

Fuck what you got to say. Remember that time when your ex/friend(Stewart) decided he was done here and you worked out all kinds of sweetheart deals with him before he even considered any other offers? Collusion. Go fucking lie to somebody else that wants to buy it. You're a desperate loser and cheater. Fuck outta here with your dizzy bullshit.

Remember that time? It was a month ago. FTR, me and Jeppers planned a trade a few years ago in Oct for the next year (Henry for Aaron Jones). My trade was for Etienne OR Pierce (he was gonna drop both of them, not smart). But we talked spring, and I said it was in the works, to be announced late summer. In the meantime, he never got got a single trade offer. He had a family emergency mid Aug in a foreign country. He did not choose to "be done here". He knew he was gonna be gone 1 or 2 - 3 months. Would you say your daughter takes precedence over FF? Maybe not. Cuz I told you and Jeffrey what happened.
In my 15th season at FF, never been hinted at any impropriety. Leave it to you. I don't need to say another word in defense, or call you a loser, sink to your level. Probably just another 4 AM drunken rant.

after all these years i got accustomed to the crazy juiced settings in leagues with you guys. at first i didn't like them. well before this year i had my fair share of losses or wins from a huge dst performance. even player performances can get ridiculous with 70+ points at times. but now i appreciate the scoring. it can be quite fun and you have more chances for huge comebacks. it's also different from your bog standard ppr. so the variance of league style is also appreciated

Let's score some big points and see who stands tall at the end. If it was a matter of big points, I'd be 2-0 or at worst 1-1 in a league or 2. Instead I'm 0-8 with the 2nd most pts scored the most pts or 2nd most pts scored against me in all leagues. lol Glad I can keep a sense of humor about it all. But lousy start to my entire season. Actually I'm 2-0 in an NFL-managed league I never signed up for. Half the people are not there.
