Subscriber Contest to be Unveiled by Wednesday Morning (3 Viewers)

So, here is a position by position breakdown of the likely demise of my team:

My 3 headed QB of Schaub, Vick & Kaepernick laid a collective egg this week...Vick wins the suckfest with 13.15pts. Kaepernick has been an absolute bust.

My RB's continued to suck. Trent Richardson's lackluster performance left me with Eddy Lacy & David Wilson who combined for 18.3 pts. woot.

WR's had been carrying my team, but weak games from Demaryius and Andre Johnson left me with a below average effort. Denarius Moore and Vincent Brown take my top to WR spots with 19 apiece and DThomas takes up a flex spot with 10.7.

TE's were OK, with Witten giving me 28.6 after Jordan Cameron's subpar 8.1 (which was still good enough for a flex spot on my crappy roster)

PK & DEF may end up saving my week here.18.5 from Hauschka and 17 from the ARZ Cards are a nice total.

Total points are 153.45 and I've got no one in tonights game. Playing for low scores as I'm 7.15 above the projected cut line right now. :fingerscrossed:

Also, wondering how unique my roster is? Anyone willing to throw me a bone?
Hangin tough! Amazing how my RBs are holding together.
 
Eli Manning 14

Vick 9

Manuel 7

Charles 31

Wilson 21

Bernard 16

Lacy 16

Julio Jones 27

Dez 26

Givens 10

Heyward-Bey 7

Thompkins 2

Graham 31

Cameron 12

Thomas 2

Bullock 3

Forbath 3

Brown 3

Lions 3

Panthers 3

Redskins 3

Like my QB trio. Hope Charles and Lacy can carry RB until Wilson stops fumbling and Bernard takes over for BGE. WR is a minor weakness, but I only need 2 each week. TE is a strength. I feel like I'll get at least 1 flex from the TE every week. Always have 3 kickers and 3 Def/ST.
196 last week. 243 this week (#33 overall). However, Lacy hurt, Wilson still not getting the carries. Think Bernard will get more touches every week. Bullock is awful, Forbath hurt, Redskins Def/ST blows. This is why I always take 3/3 .

Dez,Julio, and my TE trio carrying my team so far. Still like my QBs as long as Vick is healthy.
222.35 this week. Eli blows, but Vick keeps saving the day, even on an off week. Charles and Bernard getting good points at RB, which is a good thing with Lacy hurt/on a bye and Wilson sucking. Julio and Dez still the WR anchor, but we had a Kembrell Tompkins sighting, so I didn't even need Dez this week, as my dynamic TE trio once again accounted for my two flex scores. Panthers had a big week, but they are off week 4. No points from Forbath (inj) or Brown (Giants blow), so again glad I took 3 kickers and 3 def/ST.
181.8 with Julio to go (-4.6). I sound like a broken record, but once again I owe my survival to Charles, at least one big WR performance (this time Dez), and my TE combo.

 
I have Tony Romo, Mason Crosby and Jimmy Graham...and I'm sweating it a little, thanks to my pitiful RBs and WRs (including Megatron). If the projected cut is right, I'll be okay though.

 
Moving on to week 6 after a 190. With some big games from my TE's. While my 3 QBs laid a dud. And a Browns Def sighting.

So far 23 out of 29 have played (79.3%).

Newton (2/5) Vick (3/5) Weeden (0/5)

Bush (4/5) D. Williams (1/5) Lacy (2/5) Helu (1/5) J. Bell (3/5) Redman (0/5) Polk (1/5)

Mi. Floyd (2/5) Hopkins (1/5) G. Tate (2/5) Hartline (3/5) Patterson (0/5) Wheaton (0/5) Kerley (1/5) K. Allen (2/5) Thompkins (2/5) J. Hunter (0/5)

Graham (5/5) D. Allen (0/5) Eifert (1/5) J. Thomas (4/5)

Zuerlein (3/5) Forbath (0/5) Gano (2/5)

Browns (1/5) Ravens (4/5)

Flex: RB 2, WR 3, TE 5

Players out for the year: D. Allen ($9/$250)

Players passed Bye week 9/29 (31.0%)

I know I'll be in the minority on this but I also know others do the same thing. I think it is great someone set something up for $5 to tally it all up, I'm sure it is worth the money for a lot of people.

Maybe it's because I started out gathering the scores from newspapers on Monday/Tue, and yes sometimes Wed when the MNF game ran late, but I actually enjoy taking the time to grab the box scores at CBS and start running the numbers in my head. Is 6/120/TD that hard to figure out in your head? I know trying to get an exact number is a little tricky but I add u[p my QB, RB, WR, TE, use round numbers and usually by that point I have a pretty good gauge if I need to get more involved in the numbers.

Surprised to see more people who don't enjoy that part of the process. I like to start adding the numbers up while the games are going on in the late afternoon. I actually don't like looking in during Sunday on most of my league sites like MFL and RTSports because it has the totals already tallied, I enjoy going over the game center casts to try and see how we got to the numbers I am looking at.

I guess I'm the weirdo though for doing this.

 
I get my scores using the My FBG page.

Go to My FBG page

Create a new league profile

Input scoring, your roster, etc...

Go to View Stats in the In Season section of My FBG page (you have to scroll down a bit)

Change the default setting from view week 1 - week 17 to view the current week - week 17

Then use the feature to add up your top QB, top 2 RB, top 2 WR, top TE, top 2 RB/WR/TE Flex, top K & top DST

It took about 10 minutes to set up the 1st time, but really easy to use after that.

I'm really surprised that the Subscriber contest and various daily leagues are not in the "importable" league options.

If for nothing else than to have the scoring system baked in without having to do it ourselves.

 
Moving on, think I'm further this year then last year at this point. Should be around ~207.

Rice showing up again, plus Julius, Henery and Dez

Vernon with a nice flex line, hopefully he can continue scoring.

 
Everyone calculating their scores relatively manually, or is someone doing the live scoring this year?
FBG35K Gameday Scoring Organized Chaos set it up costs 4.99.
Or you can set your team up at MFL for free...
Thanks, it's worth the $5 to me and OC has set this up in the past for free, so even if I go out this week (need a bigish game from JJones to have a chance), it's worth it to say thanks for doing it in the first place.

I think it's worth it to see an estimated cut line. You're not seeing that at MFL or scoring your own team.

 
Had Julio caught that touchdown pass that he barely missed, I might have eeked it out.

Where's the :dropsturd: emoticon when you need it? QB, RB's and TE's completely whiffed this week.

See you next year, good luck to the rest of you.

 
Should advance this week thanks almost entirely to Romo and Hilton. My RB situation is a mess. My TEs have scored reasonably well for me, but I feel like I'm clinging to a rope there as well. I have injured players who should return, but I don't see any of them being difference-makers. I really need Britt to find a new home, Austin to get healthy, and a couple of my "project" RBs to get more PT. Every year it's the same thing for me -- my RBs are the biggest problem. I just can't bring myself to spend the money necessary to get one of the top-flight guys and I seem to hit no more than doubles with my 2nd and 3rd tier guys.

I think I'll hang with you guys for just one more week. Tony G :moneybag: saved my bacon again last night. Too bad he's on bye next week. Just scraped by this week in the low 150s. :thumbup:

Is that still working for you? When I looked into it in the past, I though they limited it to like a 4 week trial or something?
Draft only leagues are free for the entire season.

I did not know that, thanks!

Yesssss. Cleared it by only 1.15 this week.

After the late game Sunday I did not think I was going to survive Newton/Andre Johnson this week.

Get it together, Cam.

 
Wondering how many Gronk owners got cut this week/are left in the contest?
Doing a little worse than than average

972 started, down to 509 - 52.4% survival, compared to 62.5% overall

This week, Gronk owners fared relatively well, 79.4% survival v. 81.8% overall

 
Like a lot of people, my RBs are my weak spot. Still scoring about 200 a week, but outside of McCoy, the rest of my RBs CJ2K, Lacy, Wilson just aren't getting it done right now. Will need those 3 RBs to start stepping it up and I need Amendola to finish strong to have a shot at going deep in the tourney.

Teams that paired him with Julius Thomas are at 75.5% remaining.

Forget to pair him with Julius Thomas? Those teams are at 36.7% remaining.
