"Cutthroat" League Needs a Few Active & Dedicated Owners (12 teams, redraft) (1 Viewer)

Cutthroat Fantasy Football is back for year #2.

This is a very unique league that rewards the top teams each week, and penalizes lazy, inactive, and/or bad owners.

2016 Rules - http://j.mp/2bvJOVv

The basics:

  • Redraft. 12 teams. 4 divisions.
  • Draft will be at night on Sunday 9/4, Monday 9/5, Tuesday 9/6 or Wednesday 9/7
  • You choose your entry fee $25-$50. Each round of the draft is determined via lottery. Every teams gets one "ping pong ball" per round. Owners will receive 1 additional ping pong ball per round for each additional dollar they pay in entry fees
  • Owners are expected to be active. This means, each owner must log into the website (myfantasyleague.com) every 24 hours. If an owner exceeds 24 hours, their upcoming opponent may "lock" a player on their roster - meaning that player cannot be in the upcoming week's starting lineup
  • Each week, top teams get to steal a player from the bottom teams. In turn, bottom teams get to steal a player from the top teams. Bottom teams get to protect 2 players. Top teams get to protect 5 players
  • Each week, free agent claims process with the top scorer from the previous week getting #1 seed, 2nd scorer gets #2, etc. Claims processing is a straight-line (no snaking)
It may sound like the bottom teams would get completely decimated, but we found that was not the case in 2015. Many times a bottom team actually gets better, since their 3rd best player may not be as good as a top team's #6 player.

This league is really tough, but it is lots of fun. It does take dedication, and even the most dedicated owner slipped up from time to time.

Take a look at the rules - http://j.mp/2bvJOVv - and shoot me a message if you want to play.

 
Strange. I don't see that I'm blocking private messages... But I also don't see that I am ALLOWING messages. I don't see a setting at all.

Anyway... I sent you an email.
