I believe I choose 0.5 ppr. I'm indifferent toward 1.0 ppr. I have been doing at least 1 fantasy football league a year since 2007. I recall doing 1.0 ppr once or twice. I did like it and think it was cool, but I'm not convinced its better. One of the other leagues I am in this year will have 3wr 2rb 1flex 1te with 1ppr. Considering how many positions are there, I feel this will be good way for me to experience if its better and if its needed for deeper leagues.

I drafted 11th in that 12 team league. I was originally drafting 2nd in that league but traded back since I wanted to get some good wr options early. I felt drafting later would help me with that. Also I felt drafting late in my first draft of the year would be good for me to get a feel for who is going when.

I like my leagues to have variety so going 4th here seems fine.

Can we also get confirmation that the list that Kmd randomized is actually the list we’re using

As of right now Wednesday September 1 at 9pm looks like a frontrunner but we haven't finalized who is in the league yet.

this means replacing 3rd wr w/ a flex right? because when i did my survey, adding an extra roster spot was losing by a landslide.

Guessing so because adding a bench slot is also listed in that point (though apparently it got considerably closer between you doing the survey and Nero listing results).

I think it's weird that I can change the divisions but they don't show up on the main page but on the scedule editor I can see them. Maybe the new season has to begin for them to be on the front page.

but right now

peg, panzer, d3 and reck are in the DoD

voodoo is kila, racefan, yiley, kk

miths envy is me, poker, uncle joey and tali

So there were 17 responses to the survey/questionnaire.

FAAB was defeated by a score of 10 no votes to 7 yes votes therefore there will be no FAAB and we will continue with continual rolling list.

adding .5 ppr won big with 12 yes votes to 6 no votes

Getting rid of kickers was defeated by 13 no votes to 4 yes votes

The ability to allow draft pick trades won with 12 yes votes to 5 no votes

8 votes or 47.1% voted to change the 3rd WR slot into a flex (at least its not a superflex)

adding an extra WR/TE slot was voted down 14-3

2 IR slots is the winner of the slot battle with 6 votes

the question about the promotion scheme won big with a 15-2 vote

ranged scoring for kickers narrowly wins with 9 votes to 8

no divisions and only 4 go to the playoffs wins 10-7

adding an extra bench slot also won 9-8


TL;DR

no FAAB
.5 ppr
we are keeping kickers but they now have yardage scoring
we can now trade draft picks
we are adding a flex
We get 2 IR slots
we now have 7 bench slots

I would like to thanks everyone that took the time to fill this out.

I sorta feel like this is a step in the wrong direction. Like we are all going to be starting 3 RBs and prob have a good 2 or 3 backups. That RB pool is gonna be thin. Even when we were starting 2 RBs with injuries and covid it felt very thin.

I agree we are going in the wrong direction. Do not agree it's because of changing the third wideout to flex, which is standard on all of the major sites.

I mean, I mocked yesterday and ended up with multiple WRs and even a second TE that I’d rather start in the flex spot than my third best RB. But yeah, I think making RB and WR depth roughly equal is good and I’m curious to see how it shakes out (because even though it’s the default literally everywhere, I have very little experience with it).

Everything you changed for L1 looks right except kicker points, needs to be 10 yards per point not 1 yard per point.

If 17 people voted, how is 8 (47.1%) a majority to replace wide receiver with a flex?

I would prefer more wide receivers than running backs myself. At least I am drafting top 4 so I can get one of cmc, cook, kamara, henry no matter what. I will not be trading my spot in this league this year.

The kicker thing is interesting. I did not vote for it but I okay with trying it

There were three options for that question so I’m guessing it got a plurality

EDIT: Yeah - 8 people said full flex, 3 said change it to WR/TE, 4 said keep it as-is

flex just got more votes than keeping the 3rd WR or adding a WR/TE slot
