Weird thing to doubt when you can just Google the info. I can even just link you. You can look at years before 2020 as well.

But yeah, ppr vs half ppr is probably a matter of preference, but standard is just clearly inferior if you care about rb being too thin and too strong compared to wideout or are concerned about the top few RBs giving to much of an advantage.

Oh okay I thought you were comparing 1/2 vs 1 ppr not 1 ppr vs 0 ppr (Standard). I already knew 0 ppr was awful

uh...How did you possibly think that?

ftr PPR vs half is as stark as the difference between half and standard. the difference between the top 3 WR scores and top 3 RB scores from last year in PPR is only 33 pts. It's 125 in half. it's 212 in standard. The issue that some people have in with full PPR is it makes the 2nd tier wideouts just flat better than the 2nd tier of RBs. and so on.

Yay I am not sure what I was thinking.

By the way I saw this in our league settings that I figured should be discussed sooner rather than later

Playoff Tie-Breaker: Best regular season record vs opponent wins
Playoff Reseeding: No

We should vote on playoff reseeding now since we gonna have 6 in playoffs. I would vote yes

Also could someone better explain to me how this tie breaker? I not really get it

In the event that a playoff match ties at say, 103.24 to 103.24, whoever won the regular season matchup between those two teams advances.

I don't have a strong opinion on whether we reseed or not.

I mean the other option is higher seed wins and eh...I don't feel like one is significantly better than the other but we can talk about it if ya want

Is "Higher Seasonal Point Total" an option for that tie-breaker?

Dang. That would've been my vote.

Are there any options
other than
the two that have been given (higher seed, better H2H reg season record)? I find the latter preferable to the former but I don't really like either of them.

Why are we worrying about this, I have literally never seen a tie in a fantasy football league where scores go down to the 0.01

At some point just yell at your quarterback for losing -2 yards from taking a knee and not -1

It came up in the finals of baseball last year and I got the short end of the stick.

...Which means I am maybe probably not the most objective viewpoint on the matter.

I mean, it’s several orders of magnitude more likely in category based sports than points-based ones.

oh ok, thats what that means. I am fine with whatever tie breaker we use. both options seem fine

I think reseed should happen only because it happens in real football too

Best of luck to those drafting tomorrow

The schedules do not currently match the divisions or the standings since they still display last years. Has it always been like this in league 1 when new teams come in? If not, then I do not like the way this looks at all. Got a bad feeling there could be a yahoo software bug here. Should be noted that my profession in real life is in Software QA. Also known as getting paid to find software bugs. And Yahoo is not paying me. So I really not like this if its a bug
