Do we have the results of the poll?
-
So far, 9 of us have responded to the poll - thank you! I'll keep the poll open until midnight Friday, then share the results, so you three stragglers, let's hear your voice!
-
Here's the poll: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSczmH7vBGVaL6_CBIbyUwwTsSAI6HVtZogiU7oU9xzxCzk7_A/viewform
It covers 1) pitching starts cap, 2) number of games played per week, 3) your interest in turning this into a money league. Thanks for your patience, rub your unicorns for a short lockout.
-
I'll have the poll out this week. Sorry for the delay, life has been busy.
-
I've only played a couple head-to-head seasons, but I believe I would prefer more daily SP slots and a weekly cap on starts to the 2/day with no cap/week.
-
Can we have the vote on the possible change of the pitching starts ASAP because me staying in this league depends on changing the rule? I am in 6 other leagues and none have such a rule. Please let me know ASAP.
-
I will vote on the pitching starts and then decide if I am coming back.
-
Arbitration is over! Thanks for everyone who contributed. You can now make penalty-free roster cuts between now and January 31. You can also make trades. Please let me know if you are playing the 2022 season, and don't forget to renew your team before it expires. Also, in the next few weeks I'll put out the poll re: how many pitching starts to allow during the game week. Thanks!
-
The last day for Arbitration is Sunday. Louiville Sluggers, Socrates, and CRISPR, please allocate your funds!
-
12 days left for arbitration! Remember, if you don't allocate all $25, none of it gets allocated.
-
Arbitration is on! You have until November 14 to allocate $25 to the salaries of the other teams, minimum of $1 per team, max of $3. Holler if you have questions!
-
Thanks for the kind words, all. Great season, Lollygaggers. In my defense, before I’m sentenced to fantasy prison, I simply had a good auction a couple years back. Beyond that I’ve earned nothing. Nothing! Re: changing starts… I’m open to change but probably prefer the current system. It forces one to manage their roster and make choices; much as one can’t start more than 1-2 1B on any given day.

Yes, what I mean is that if you switch formats you can set the max starts, but you can only set it up to 10 which is the highest, you can't set 14. Personally I prefer to keep it as it is now for the simple reason that most of my leagues have already switched and I like to have some diversity in the formats I play.

Risen , you are in the Bridwell League with me we use 9 and it works fine. You have more control over which pitcher you can use.
-
I believe that the max is 10 starts per week if you switch formats.

What might work is setting the number of starts per week allowed to 14 or something like that anyway.

I'll send out a poll about the SP question w/in the next week or so, before arbitration.
Welcome aboard, Mutos v.2!
-
Congratulations Joke TBA. A truly great season. . I want to come back next year because I think I can be better.I don't like the SP two starts a day rule.Lets have the vote on changing the number of starts ASAP. I don't want to play under that rule another year. This way you will know if you need to get another owner.

Welcome!

I keep running into Lollygaggers every now and then, but I don't think I've played against any of the other owners before.
-
Hello, everybody. I just picked up Mostly Bogus Mutos. I'm an experienced Ottoneu player, but relatively new to head-to-head. Looking forward to mixing it up.
-
On another note, I'm managing a playoff pool - you rank the 10 teams in order of confidence, plus enter a prediction of the total number of HRs hit in the playoffs for a tie-breaker and, if you want, enter that prediction in a separate pool. $10 per playoff entry, max of 2, $5 for the optional HR derby, one entry only. If this appeals to you, email me at geeweber@gmail.com for details.

Congratulations to Peter for continuing the dynasty. You are now sentenced to fantasy baseball prison.
Arbitration begins Oct. 15 and goes on for a month, so be sure to schedule some time to stick it to your fellow owners.
Thanks for another fun season, hope to see you all next year!
-
Thanks Peter! 799 is not a bad score, but pretty tough to beat a 945. Good luck in the final Lollygaggers, you will need it lol!

It was an incredible run, Risen! In case others didn’t notice: Risen has been totally dominant for the last several weeks. Well done.

Meanwhile, check out that cinderella run that Risen is on!!
-
Niv reported about 40 minutes ago that the problem was fixed. Lollygaggers, Joke, Tebow, Risen, let me know ASAP if you're able to set your lineups.
-
Lollygaggers reports not being able to change his lineup. Mine are grayed out too (but I'm out of the playoffs). Anyone else still playing having the same issue? It looks like a lot of leagues are reporting this problem at the community site.
-
I endorse TT's message. I hereby decree Joke TBD's payroll to be set at $49.
-
I don’t care if we change things up next year as long as we work in a hefty handicap for Peter.

You are Risen indeed!
-
I was bad this season mostly because I had 10-13 players I was counting on for large potions of the year on the IL. I want to come back next year because I think I can be better.I don't like the SP two starts a day rule. I didn't enjoy it nor the fact we only had 3 trades during the season. All my trade proposals were turned down. I only got one proposals with no counter offer. Again, I want to stay but I want to see how the vote goes for the SP.
-
After starting the season 22-42 I thought I was done with this team, but after a 23-1 run to finish the season and sneak into the playoffs, I will probably be sticking around for another season ;)

The playoffs have started! Good luck to the 6 finalists. Great season everyone. After the champ is crowned, the offseason begins. Arbitration begins in October (i think), and final roster cuts are due by January 31. Also, let me know if you'll be back next season. I hope you will!
-
My best 5 SP are all starting today and can only start 2. Give mt back control and give me 9 starters for the week and let me decide who start and when !!!!!!
-
Thanks, fair enough.
-
I'll put together a poll in the off-season and give everyone a chance to weigh in.
-
Commissioner Oy, what do you think?
-
Hmm, my thoughts on the matter don't seem to translate into real life. Regardless, I prefer it stay the same.

There have been only two trades during the season. None involving a SP. It's a non factor.
-
I prefer to keep it at 2 starts. Encourages trading when someone has too many SP starting on the same slot.

Are you in any leagues with 9 starts? I am in two. I am also in the same league your are that has 7 and 9 starts give you my control to start you best pitchers.
-
I personally think 9 is too many starts. 7 might be better, then you still have to plan it out a bit. 9 just feels like you get to have everyone start. And with 9 stats we might see a hoarding of pitchers regardless of quality to just get the innings. Although I'm fine with the 2 start thing (which encourages the same hoarding).

Can we change the the SP from two starts a day to 9 starts a week. It give the owner more control. Example if your best 3 or 4 starters pitch pitch Wednesday of that week you can only use 2 and since they won't pitch again that week you those pitcher for the week. This is the only league that I am in that does it that way.
-
Alright- I'm blowing it up. Looking to move anyone who isn't young or a prospect. Looking for prospects or controllable pieces for the next few seasons in return for any of my immediately playable players. Willing to send loans for win now teams looking to make a push. Will also accept long term injured or other currently non-productive players with strong or potentially strong future. Take a look and send me a message/offers.
