Looking for 1 - maybe 2 teams willing to spend $40 to play in this SURVIVOR league
***UPFRONT NOTICE*** - I run close to 30 leagues and have done so since 1993. I play in all of them plus others giving me 45+ teams. I do NOT use Leaguesafe and it's not because I don't believe in the product, it's just that if folks feel that unsure about the commissioner then I believe they should not play in the game. That simple - I have lots and lots of long time owners and if you look at my leagues (go to www.myfantasyleague.com and do a search for any year and foursport) you will see many high profile top notch FF players, feel free to ask them about me and my payment history.
• There are 12 teams in this league.
• There will be one division of all 12 teams.
• This is a re-draft league and NOT a keeper league
• The league’s website is located at http://www.myfantasyleague.com.
• The NFL Season starts on Thursday, September 05, 2011.
• The draft process will begin on Saturday - August 21, 2012 at 9 a.m. ET. All participants in this league will draft online using the myfantasyleague.com drafting capabilities. The draft will last for 25 rounds, with each team selecting a player in each round in a serpentine fashion (team 1 through team 12, team 12 through team 1, team 1 through team 12 etc.). There are no rules governing the number of players to be drafted at each position. It is up to the skill and draft strategy of each team owner to decide. The draft is done with a 12 hour clock - the clock will ALWAYS be on. Should an owner miss his pick when the clock runs out, the system will pick a player for that team. DRAFT ORDER will be decided AFTER all teams have paid for the season!
• This is a total points SURVIVOR LEAGUE. For the 1st 7 weeks - the lowest scoring team will have their roster booted from the competition and play will be over for them. The team scoring the highest number of points in a week will gain immunity for the following week meaning that even if they are the lowest scoring team - they will not be boooted and we will then look to the 2nd lowest scoring team that week. In week #8, the lowest scoring team will be booted BUT no immunity is granted and we will be down to the final four (4) teams. The final four (4) teams will then play for 2 week periods and it is the combined score for the 2 week period that will determine which team is the lowest scoring and will be booted next - a team will then be booted in Week 10, Week 12 and finally in Week #14 - leaving the remaining team the winner!
• The franchise fee is $40 – prizes will be shared as follows:
Total Prize Pool = $ 480
Less League Expenses = $ 40 (to cover PayPal fees and a small amount for time and effort!)
Prizes to Distribute = $ 440
1st Place = $310
2nd Place = $130
THE NITTY GRITTY:
• ROSTER – You must have a total roster of 25 players. Once again - there are no rules governing the number of players to be drafted at each position as long as you will be able to field a legal starting lineup. It is up to the skill and draft strategy of each team owner to decide.
LINEUP REQUIREMENTS:
Starting lineups will consist of
1 QB
2 RB
3 WR
1 TE
1 Flex player (a RB or WR, or TE)
1 PK
1 Team Defense/Special team
• SCORING – You can also click on “scoring rules” from the home page and see the details there.
An individual offensive player will be credited points for scoring in the following manner, unless otherwise noted:
a. Passing:
Yards passing divided by 20 (e.g. 215 passing yards = 10.75 fantasy points).
4 points for every passing TD.
Minus one point (-1) for every interception thrown.
2 points for every 2-point conversion.
b. Rushing:
Yards rushing divided by 10 (e.g. 89 rushing yards = 8.9 fantasy points).
6 points for every rushing TD.
2 points for every 2-point conversion.
c. Receiving:
Yards receiving divided by 10 (e.g. 112 receiving yards = 11.2 fantasy points)
6 points for every receiving TD.
1 point for every catch.
2 points for every 2-point conversion.
d. All Other TDs:
6 points for any TD scored by recovered or returned fumbles, laterals, or any other means by which a skill position player (QB, RB, WR, TE, or K) is awarded an individual TD, except kickoff and punt returns. No rushing or receiving yardage is awarded for a TD returned on a fumble.
Placekicking:
1 point for every Extra Point
3 points for every FG of 1 – 39 yards
4 points for every FG of 40 – 49 yards
5 points for every FG of 50+ yards
f. Team Scoring (Defense/Special Teams):
1 point for every sack
2 points for every team takeaway (interception or fumble recovery)**
6 points for every TD (via interception return, fumble return, punt or kickoff return, blocked FG return, missed FG return, blocked punt return)*
2 points for every safety
5 points for every shutout ***
2 points for allowing between 1- 5 points ***
1 point for allowing between 6 – 10 points ***
* TDs scored on “fake” FGs or “fake” punts do NOT count as Defense/Special Teams scoring. TDs scored by the offensive team after a blocked FG or blocked punt do NOT count as a Defense/Special teams score. TDs scored on a double-turnover only count for the individual player who scored the TD, not for the team.
** A double turnover is considered points for the recovering team’s defense and ST. Thus, an example, team A’s offense fumbles and team B’s defense recovers, but then fumbles the ball back to team A’s offense. In that scenario team A’s defense and special teams (along with team B’s defense and ST) are both awarded a fumble recovery.
*** Any and all points scored against a team are considered points scored against the special teams and defense. Thus, as an example, a turnover by the offense that is returned for a TD is considered as points scored against the special teams and defense.
6. CALCULATIONS: Team scoring will be carried out to the hundredth (e.g. a team may score 94.75 points).
• BEST POSSIBLE SCORING LINEUP: There will be no lineup submissions. Instead, each team will get its optimal fantasy point total each week. That means each team will be awarded the fantasy points of their top-scoring QB, 2 RBs, 3 WRs, TE, D/ST, K, and Flex Player. Lineups and fantasy points will be tallied by the sys
