FBG Subscriber - "Fake" Cheatsheet? (1 Viewer)

Is the "fake" cheat sheet posted yet? Maybe I'm still hungover, but I couldnt find it on the Clayton Gray 150+ cheatsheet page, or the article page.

I'm hosting a draft at my place and wanted to leave it on the coffee table so the guys wont hound me for my real lists. Last year it was pretty effective at my live draft at throwing people off from what I was doing.

Thanks for the assist and good luck to everyone drafting soon! :lmao: :lmao:

 
hi fellow Ben :lmao:

yea this is the only screenname i post with on FBG, so we're not in the same league unless your draft is at 1pm today and its a 1 keeper league :lmao:

i may just have to print the magazine ADP list... but the one from last year had sweet comments next to the players such as:

from 2007 (if i recall correctly)

1. L Tomlinson --- Comment: Duh

2. Portis (actually wasnt such a terrible ranking) Comment: ~

3. Rudi Johnson : "Mr Consistency" etc etc

 
I'd LOVE to find the fake cheatsheet again.

It worked to perfection on 2 owners last season in a league I've regularly dominated. Left it in a closed folder & left the room for a few minutes. Came back, and nothing 'seemed' out of the ordinary. Then the auction starts, and these two are both reading off what looks like hastily scribbled notes in the margins of their original (generic) cheatsheet. The best part was watching them go back and forth over obviously planted players. Not being able to resist, I kept myself in the bidding (to a point) as well.

Haven't had that much fun at a draft in a long time!

If you need it immediately, I recommend you download an old version of the VBD app with old projections, put in weird rules, and leave that out instead.If you can't figure out how to get an old version together, just use weird rules, greatly reduce the yardage projections for the players you are most interested in, and go from there.

AWESOME:eek:
 
Not to hijack, but I also seem to remember some sort of customizable webpage that you could enter players into (Tomlinson, for example) and it had an accompanying writeup about how he had suffered an injury and was either out for a long while or the rest of the season. Anyone familiar with something like this? It got me good once, then I used it a time or 2 afterwards....

To be fair, I think this fake cheatsheet is pretty tongue in cheek.Plus the website doesn't promote it as legit.

This is something I was thinking about as well. I know its not apples to apples, but the intent is the same. To intentionally mislead someone. I'm having a hard time resolving these conflicts - quote taken from the forum ToS: "You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this bulletin board to post any material which is knowingly false and/or defamatory, inaccurate..."I realize the "fake" cheatsheet is not using the board to propagate false info, but like I said, the intent certainly appears to be the same. Oh, and fwiw, I find the "fake" to be very funny. Just in conflict with the "rules".

Using this sheet to mislead Guppies who are looking for help would be weak, but if Sharks are snooping in your notes or looking over your shoulder, they are getting what they deserve. Thumbs up.

Exactly. It is one thing if someone is asking your advice and you give them knowingly bad advice. It is something else entirely if they are sneaking a peak at your notes uninvited. This list is not "good" or "bad" but how it is used could be either. Be excellent with it and there is no problem.
 
Honest question, how could this be bogus if David Boston isn't even listed? The guy is the Duke Nukem Forever of fantasy football.

So a "shark" is going to look over your shoulder and pick a guy way out of order? Riiiight... this whole concept to me seems pretty weak, and is only designed to take advantage of beginners or people that, if you're good at fantasy football, you should be beating anyway...Funny as a joke, I suppose...
 
Jesus.

I looked at the sheet. I laughed.

Pretty sure that's the intent. If you're going ape#### over this, you need some perspective.
