Note: Apologies if I’m stepping on any toes or am out of line - delete if so. I see that Doomy3 has a few CP cash leagues that started ~10 years ago… but I don’t see anything more recent or for a more casual experience (ie no cash - just bragging rights).

Thanks Burt!

I opened this thread to the last message (yours) and immediately had a panic attack thinking you meant I botched the date and missed the live draft.

Lesson learned - don't read new messages in reverse order.

For all - as Burt quoted - we are locked in to the 8pm CT on Saturday August 28th!

I devised a different defensive scoring system myself on a flea flicker league a few years ago. But without reading into deep detail on that reddit thread, I don't think it's inherently better than the standard system. I'd have to go back to mine to see how it performed as it was a test league to play with scoring settings but totally biased me says it was better than that.

Standard.

I set up a different thread for a potential second league with an auction style draft... But it didn't garner much interest.

Thats what i thought i just needed to know. Ive never had a sucescful auction draft so i was going to do some studying.

Also a quick scoring note:

I set field goals to fractional scoring. Under traditional scoring systems, a 10 yard field goal and a 19 yard field goal are both worth 1 point. Under fractional, the 19 yard field goal is worth 1.9 points. The scoring rate is the same across all distances, 1 yard = .1 points. So a 52 yard field goal is 5.2 points.

Everything else is set to default scoring - but reminder - this is a PPR league.
