June 24, 20205 yr what's the buy in going to be? and then what will regular season/playoffs payouts be?
June 24, 20205 yr what's the buy in going to be? and then what will regular season/playoffs payouts be?Assuming we do roto points I think the final standings payout would look something like $400/$150/$50. Assuming all 12 members stay in at a $50 buyin.
June 24, 20205 yr not if we are doing roto. the regular season winner IS the "playoff" winner. if we did H2H, i would think the season would be too short to pay off that winner and the playoff teams.
June 24, 20205 yr head to head wont work in this unless we have divisions and only play the other teams in our division. top 2 go from each division goes to the playoffs.
June 25, 20205 yr we need to get a check-in from everyone in the league to make sure we'll all still in to play, amd so that everyone has a chance to be part of the decision making. obviously those of us who've been posting the last few days are in. let's try and get a hold of everyone else as soon as possible.

June 28, 20205 yr Never saw an email but I’m on roto Might have gone to spam? It comes from ESPN. Or you put in a bogus email. Either way, it just said come on here and post so you’re good.
June 29, 20205 yr Author Hopefully I did not miss this above, but with the real possibility of the season not fully being played, is there a set numbers of games that we will use to determine that enough games were played to count? Or will all 60 games need to be completed for our league to count?
June 29, 20205 yr Yeah we might need to make a decision now about what happens if the season gets canceled halfway through.
June 29, 20205 yr if the season is cut short, the person with the first overall pick should be declared the winner. congratulations derka.
June 29, 20205 yr Author I guess I should have said my take above when I asked the question. I say that at least 45 games should be played for anything to count. 3/4 seems like a good number to make things official. I am also cool with all or nothing.
July 7, 20205 yr Do we have a synopsis of everything we decided on? Roto, payouts, playoffs, etcFrom what I’ve gathered from this thread 12 guys, $50 buyin, full roto format, no playoffs Payout: $400, $150, $50Season must play at least 50 games. Full refunds if season ends before that. Did I miss anything?
July 7, 20205 yr same draft order or re-draw? same is probably good since we just pushed it back a few months.
July 7, 20205 yr same draft order or re-draw? same is probably good since we just pushed it back a few months.“Same is probably good so we don’t have to listen to derka bitch and moan for 3 months”FIFYBut yeah same order makes the most sense. Nothing has really changed except a delay.
July 7, 20205 yr yep, all sounds good. the first games are thursday night (the 23rd) so maybe that tuesday (the 21st) - 2 weeks from today? otherwise, espn has adjusted their settings for standard leagues. they upped the amount of ir spots for covid, and reduced the min/max for starts/innings where applicable. everyone needs to get a new team name/pic and get to fucking work already i'm tired of this shit.

July 15, 20205 yr If they are out that might be good. I would like us to expand rosters for the short season. If guys get the covid and are out a few weeks that could kill your team.

So we doing this Tuesday?
July 17, 20205 yr I'll stay out if thats OK. If it fucks everything up I'll be there. I am not feeling this and I am seriously busy all goddamn day anyway for the last few weeks.

July 19, 20205 yr Here is a good FAQ for the ESPN changes: https://www.espn.com/fantasy/baseball/story/_/id/29360092/2020-mlb-shortened-fantasy-baseball-season-faq

July 20, 20205 yr Author What are we doing with the draft order since beer is out?The only right thing to do. Reverse the order with no snake.
