rhyscartwright_avfc Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 (edited) I play football then. Pretty sure last year we did it quite late on the Monday night. Haven't kept up to date or done any research whatsoever as of yet. We keeping scoring, squad structure, rules etc all the same? EDIT - Just checked, we did at 9.30 last year.

Yeah keep everything the same . It's ridiculous and RB's shouldn't get points just for getting handoffs but everybody seems to like the lunacy. 5 bench spots and one IR.

rhyscartwright_avfc Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Yeah usually back about 9.15/9.20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumerican Posted July 20, 2019 Author Share Posted July 20, 2019 OK Monday September 2nd @ 21.30 UK time. I think that's about 16.30 Boston time or possibly 17.30. I know there is about a 2 week window where the USA is only 4 hours behind rather than 5. @maqroll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should take about an hour to get to round 11. Or you could do some coke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milfner Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 I’d like to change the hand off points for running backs (keep them for the WRs maybe) and QB completing passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexbelowsound Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 Anyone fancy letting people choose their draft positions? So the person who finished last last season gets to choose their draft position first rather than just getting the 1st pick. Sometimes that might not be the slot they'd want to pick from. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really . I'm already getting used to mocking in my current slot. If Tubby doesn't like picking first then he needs to be better. It would be chaos if everybody picked their own spots. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just throwing an idea out there. Better start mocking from my position! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So no previous league history to base a draft order around then Does your league include 14 strangers across the world ? I can't see how allowing everybody to pick their own spots would even work without being a nightmare to organise? I'd love to know how your league arranged that so easily.

I've done a couple of mocks (To get familiar with the byes more than anything)and I pretty much have to take McCaffrey at 4. Nobody really "falls" to you with a high pick so you have to nail those early selections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly mate, it was done in 10 minutes. No fuss at all. The commish just randomised the order and the first person on the list got to pick where they were drafting from, then the 2nd, so on and so forth. Obviously once a slot has been taken you can't go ahead and say you want it. It was just a suggestion. I'm happy with how it is, just thought i'd throw it out there.

Why didn't you just have a random order then . ? Your way seems convoluted , unfair and just straight up weird. Especially for a start up league. How long do you think it would take for everyone on VT to reply with their preferred spot when we haven't even had everybody confirm and less than half have OK'd the draft time . I can only assume you are in a 4 man league with your 3 kids ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 With Ryan on point changes Definitely remove points per run and points per pass for RB/QB and maybe even do 0.5 PPC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more for the it ain't broke why fix it. How system is now suits those who only play this league and have no idea of the differences this would make - i.e. Me :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
