OK, I think we are going to have to put a timeframe on setting our draft time.
I'm sure most of us need to know at least a few days ahead of time when the draft will be so as to set our schedules not to conflict with other drafts and RL shit.
So I think I will have to give a cutoff time for discussion of Wed and have a last and FINAL vote on thurs if we don't have a consensus before then.
We are currently waiting on nutildah and Hhampuz to figure a out a timeframe they can both make and give that to us to verify we can all make that range.
*****************************************************************************************************************************
RULES CHANGES:OK, I went back and reread all the posts and started applying peoples votes but found it became unwieldy as some of the discussions changed the questions and I didn't feel the people that voted should be locked in to their votes and rather than make a whole discussion over each change here are the current questions and everyone can vote again.
* denotes last years setting
1) South Park: Should we change the playoff format?
And let 6 teams to move to the playoffs with the top two teams getting a BYE or maybe expand it to 8 teams as some may not like not playing their teams on
the most important part of the season?
Playoff spots:
a)4 *
b)6
c)8
2)DireWolfM14:What do you guys think of having two payouts? I was thinking the second place team gets double the entry fee, and winner takes the rest.
Payout places
a)1*
b)2*
c)3
d)MORE
*note 1st place was split last year as the death on the field cancelled a game with league players original was winner take all
3)morvillz7z: replace kicker with a flex spot
a) yes
b) no*
C) don't care/abstain
4) OK now on the waiver method, due to the choices being multifaceted it can become complicated to vote for one.
So I think what we can do is break it down and vote multiple times on the method to choose.
OK if that was not clear this is an example of what I am saying.
We will vote on whether to use reverse order or continuous rolling
or a mix of the two (hybrid). If we choose reverse order then there are 2 different choices of that (I will explain that if that is our choice before the next vote)
and if we do hybrid then obviously those 2 choices also come into play. So we will not need a second vote only if continuous rolling is chosen.
Now correct me if i'm wrong but I think 2 years ago we used reverse order and last year we used continuous rolling.
NOW a Hybrid just means that we can use both.
I will change the method depending on what we decide.
For instance my choice would be to use Reverse for the beginning of the league (like first 5 weeks) and then change to continuous rolling for the remainder of the league.
My argument for this is that if you draft horrible then the first 5 weeks you can get good waiver picks and make a decent team BUT after 5 weeks it will not hurt good teams that get injured players by pushing them down to the bottom of the waiver list every week which I believe is unfair.
So the current voting options are.
a)reverse order
b)continuous rolling
c)
Hybrid *Yahoo removed this option by making waiver settings changeable only pre draft now
d) don't care/abstain
******************************************************************************************************************************
My votes:
1)a
I feel more than 4 teams in the playoffs will add to the luck factor as 6 would add 2 buys and 8 is just far to many.
2)c
I think 3 payouts would be decent as I used to run pool tourneys for years and 3 is a good number when you have over 10 participants and a split of 70%, 20%, 10% is a fair distribution.
3)b
I really don't care to much on kickers but would like to point out that with 12 teams if we add another flex spot then the waiver wire will be brutal. Hmm, now that I think of it I think removing kickers all together would be a better choice then making it a flex spot. So I just changed my vote from abstain to no.
4) not sure atm will have to think on it.
I want to see this league stay fun so I will vote in any way that I think will go to that end therefore I will vote for the hybrid which should help poorly drafted teams in the beginning but keep the league competitive for the rest of the season.

ALSO a reminder dues must be paid.
And if I made any errors in this let me know guys, i'm getting dumber every year.
