Well I mean, in a 10 team you are generally looking at

2 QB

8 RB

10 WR

2 TE

2 Def

that would normally be rostered not be rostered and that's in addition to all the other WW gems out there. But this is not a super important argument so if you and Panzer like smaller leagues then you just do and that's ok.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I've never done anything other than 11 or 12, but I'd imagine less than 12 would be similar to the deeper 12-man league I'm in (same lineup but nine bench slots instead of six).

I think L2 being 12 would be ideal, but that's not possible this year without L3 being four people (which hey, I'm sure Panzer would be down for). Not being PPR isn't that weird, but hey at least this isn't my point per quarterback completion league...

several of us have stated that we'd pull double duty in L3 if the need be. I'd be for a 12/12/8?

I think it'd be more likely that we go 12/10/10 but yeah I'd be down for basically anything, just put me in a league and I'll do my damnedest to win

Yeah, the list is in order.

Signups are officially closed - I'll set up L2/L3 tomorrow (I'll commish both). We'll go 12/10/10, with five of us pulling double duty in L3.

Given that only half of L3 will even count for promotion, I'm going to just split the divisions that way (all dupes and all non-dupes). L3 will not promote directly to L1, and their promotion status will depend solely on relative finish to one another. Promotion will be as follows:

L1 - bottom three to L2
L2 - top three to L1, bottom two (?) to L3
L3 - top two among the non-dupes (?) to L2

The actual number of promotions and relegations in L2/L3 depends on how many L2 has next year (and realistically, we will probably have enough turnover in L2 again that everyone returning will be in). Full priority order:

L1 #1
L1 #2
L1 #3
L1 #4
L2 #1
L1 #5
L1 #6
L1 #7
L2 #2
L1 #8
L2 #3
L1 #9
----
L1 #10
L2 #4
L1 #11
L2 #5
L3 #1
L2 #6
L1 #12
L2 #7
L2 #8
L3 #2
L2 #9
L3 #3
L2 #10
L3 #4
L3 #5

(And someone please check the OP to make sure I didn't miss anyone. I've removed hascow since he would only reduce the number of dupes, not remove them entirely.)

The funniest thing about it is I'm pretty sure he wouldn't even be in L1 if I wasn't wrongfully demoted for missing 3 weeks of a season, (2 of those weeks I won anyway, ftr).

But yeah, mostly just don't read Nero post. They are all nonsense.

I agree. I personally only want to play with 10 or 12 players as 8 or 14 players are too far in their spectrums

10 >>>>> 12 > 8

Better of doing daily with less 8 or more than 12(probably better off doing daily regardless of number). But I would play less than 8 but not for money. I'd never play more than 12.

Wasn't that like 4 years ago? Time to get over it? And that's not even true b/c of my 3 years in L1 I've finished 6 and 7th and 11th. So like, I was above being demoted the year you were for a lack of activity.
