Decimal Point Scoring? (1 Viewer)

I'm the commissioner of a league on ESPN and we just decided this year to go to the decimal point scoring 

my question is how to set it up

Rush&Rec - .1 for every 10 yards

Passing - .4 for every 25 yards

is this correct? 

Our old system was 1pt every 10 and 1pt every 25 yards passing

 
It would still be the same.  You would just get decimals for single yards.

example 1 pt for every 10 yards

10 yards = 1 point

13 yards = 1.3

Not good at math?

 
It looks like options are:

msg BobbyLane because Im thinking he provided the best answer

Use standard scoring

Make a post in the League forums stating "Hey I figured we go small decimal places in a big way" and list the scoring, along with a request for comments

Ben&Jerry and Shamrock gave the best answers.

Just depends on whether you prefer .04 or .05 per passing yard.

You're welcome.

Yeah that looked like reinventing the wheel type stuff to me 

Hopefully OP understands that "1pt every 10 and 1pt every 25 yards passing" can actually be two different answers

1)The british pound system aka imperial units (metric system for the layman)

2) As stated so clearly above

Passing - 0.04 for every yard

Passing - 1.00 for every 25 yards

I already told you.   This isn't rocket philosophy.

.10 per rushing and receiving yard

.04 or .05 per passing yard (depending on preference)

.04 per passing yard = 1 point for every 25 passing yards

.05 per passing yard = 1 point for every 20 passing yards

My league uses .05 per passing yard, but I think I'd prefer .04.

Help explain the .05  Is it something like half a point for 10 yds   ie. 1 pt for 20 yds 

So he needs to use .04 to get closer to 1 pt. per 25?

So .05 is a point per 20 yards. Essentially break the field up into 5 blocks of 20 (.05) or 4 blocks of 25 (.04). The .05 raises QB scores just a teeny bit to make QB's more valuable.

Yeah when I designed my scoring for my league years ago (dynasty), I honestly don't mind the .04 (I use .05), I just prefer nice neat numbers ending in 5 or 0 for the QB position.

 
:welcome:  to never having to worry about the dreadful fantasy football tie... use bench scoring as tiebreaker for that minut chance
