• I like the playoff plan and incentives to keep everyone playing for the duration of the season. Looking forward to the season!

• Hey guys, welcome to fouball, thanks for joining.
  
  A few things before we kickoff the season:
  
  Draft is currently set for Sept 3rd at 730 eastern. I anticipate the draft will last a few hours. We have a few guys on the west coast and i think it will be hard for them to draft much earlier than that. If this time doesn't work for anyone please let me know ASAP so we can try to find a different time that works for everyone. We only have a week left.
  
  Six teams will make the playoffs, the team with the best record and the team with the most total points will both be given a bye. The rest of the 4 wildcard teams will be decided by record. If the team with the most most points also has the best record the second best record will get a bye.
  
  It will be required that teams always have a full active lineup, every week of the season. We will give everyone one mulligan for late injuries etc, but after that we will dock future draft $ for repeat offenders. This also applies to the end of season and during consolation brackets. You can fill your bench with injured or college players but you will still need to maintain a full active roster at all times every week of the season.
  
  I'd like give some incentive to the consolation bracket, I suggest whoever wins the consolation bracket gets a $5 token to decrease the price on any of their keepers at the end of the season. And we'll give the consolation runner up a $2 token to use. (token for one individual player, player value won't ever go below $1)
  
  Lastly, in future seasons i would want to change this to a $20 ottoneu league with a league safe side-pot where the juice will be less than ottoneu takes and it will also allow us to do custom payouts. Whatever we want to decide on as a group, some suggestions are weekly most points, regular season points / record. I would not be opposed to a side pot this year as well if we all agree on something right away, but with such little time left before the season i'd rather concentrate on getting the draft going.
  Open to suggestions!
  
  Thanks everyone
