Do we have a finalised draft order...? I do like the look of the FF setup
As FF draft is conducted on their site iI cant edit the draft for 2021 until we hit the 2021 season. Ive still got the spreadsheet with all the changes draft picks etc and the final draft order to work off when im able to edit the draft on the site.

For the record, the draft order for 2021 is.....(just when im able to ill adjust the actual draft with all the changed picks)

DRAFT ORDER
GG.exe Riders
Helfarch Pounders
Beinpurplengreen Vandals
J Shuttlesworth Conquerors
Peterbuch74 Donkeys
TheDarkDwarf Tornadoes
Blacky Wolves
Manureid Cursed
ClassyGranty Comrades
Drd23 Potatoes
Wizard Warriors
Maverik Wildcats
 
Also, I must say I am not a fan of adding punters (and no, its not just because Cam Johnston likely cost me winning Empire). I don't think there is a position in fantasy football less dependent on the player's actual ability/more dependent on his team mates than punter
theres ability there...shanks vs good hang time vs distance, and how many i20s vs touchbacks you get....and in the scoring ive done, a punter is punished by having touchbacks, how many return yards against his punt (distance no hang time), and average per punt being too mediocre.

Same as why are kickers even in....bad hold, laces in, wind/snow factor, bad kickers miss more than good kickers and bad punters are more inconsistent than good ones.

Btw, i also added a way for CBs especially, shutdown corners who are avoided, for them to get points for being too good...FF category "times targeted" and other such things that help to make good CBs score as well as bad Cbs who see the ball alot and get pass breakups.

Im still playing around with such finer detail scoring rules, nothing is final until ive done the weeks long work once i get some sleep next next couple days.

Sure...

In large part a function of the team's offense - you need to be punting within a certain part of the field to be a chance of getting a punt to remain inside the 20
how many return yards against his punt (distance no hang time), and average per punt being too mediocre.
Also a function of the coverage team.

Add in massive negative points for a blocked punt which is almost always entirely the fault of the long snapper or one of the blockers and the scoring for punters in fantasy football proves my point about it being more about all the other players

I know youre really angry because of Cam Johnson. I can tell with your reply above too. I think you cut him the day after. My sincerest sympathies to you. Sincerely. Still, theyre a function of football like kickers and its good to include them all, and have good/bad affect them all.
 
I cut him on Monday, along with a couple of defensive players - a whole week after I lost the semi-final...
Just bad timing with his score that week. Always luck plays a part in playoffs. But also regular season....who was it in empire that fell over the line due to some bizarre play right at the end of the game? A fumble recovery TD.or something?
 
Literally nobody besides you wants punters in fantasy football.

Couple that with your apparent desire to make scoring the same between every league and it makes being in all 3 of Alpha, Omega and Empire kinda pointless.
Omega and Empire are my two versions of a dynasty league....one paid site with monetary prizemoney, the other a free version.

FF allows me to do many things a free site like espn and nfl would/have never allowed. You gotta pay usually to be able to fully customize a league.

Alpha has long not been mine i just commish it, but its omega/empire i care about. All i aim for is a league where theres good balance (not everything dead equal) between all the positions to make an almost true to the NFL management and gameday experience. A challenge, management savvy, tricky roster situations etc etc. Its only two dynasty leagues i own/run. Im just bringing Omega (free version) up out of the espn dark ages. Once its where i want it to be (FF) I dont keep trying to change it. Let it age like fine wine as per Empire. Alpha i give up trying to encourage change in.
 
There are billions of those QB-2RB-2WR-1TE-DST leagues out there. All with their standard boring offense-only masturbatory scoring.
I always try to bring a unique and more flavored experience to fantasy (and anything else for that matter).
I truly appreciate it when people tolerate my ways, embrace and maybe even learn to enjoy/love the fantasy I create.
I hope you all continue to put up with me, suck it in, and forge on with embracing Omega/Empire/Cutthroat leagues. :(
 
Am thinking I'll try to force trade on the FF site the following picks so that 2021 Draft is up to date (which picks belong to which people)....don't think I can order the draft itself until 2021 FF season opens in February.

The good thing with FF and Drafts...not only all done on site, but you also have two years of future picks to trade! Dont worry, don't worry, I wont be cashing them in for 5ths and 6ths. Am actually gonna stop doing that -- for the most part.

Go to your TEAM top menu tab and then click PICKS from the secondary menu tab.

screenshot-docs.google.com-2020.12.31-17_39_55.png


When you're there, I need the following people to initiate the following pick trades....

manureid click the arrow on the PICKS tab, select Colorado Donkeys, click their 1st round 2021 pick and then press OK. This will send his 1st rounder to you, pending him joining and approving. Then, go back to PICKS, your picks, select your 6th click OK and then choose Philadelphia Vandals as the destination. This will send your 6th to BPG once he joins and approves. Then click your 1st round pick and send it to Oklahoma Wolves. Once Blacky joins and approves it will go there.

Blacky click the arrow on the PICKS tab, choose your 5th round pick, click OK, then select Louisiana Wildcats and select their 3rd round pick. Once he joins and approves, this will send your 5th to him and his 3rd to you.

Once all that is done, and the people I've traded my picks to accept what I sent....that should have all the 2021 future picks sorted out.
 
For the record....I'll pay $25 a year to the site so that everyone in the league has Ad-Free experience with the Edge fantasy stuff added to it.

Don't want nothing from you lot, I'll pay it as my thank-you for tolerating me and my ways, and having the best available resources to improve your drafting and fantasy management.

I'll pay it when season opens 2/21.
 
Go to your TEAM top menu tab and then click PICKS from the secondary menu tab.

Think that is all done.

Sorry, didn’t realise you were doing this. Try again.

Check your email junk folder for a league invite to this league. Once you join, you may have a trade needing your approval. Or Blackys case, trades he needs to propose. Click accept as these are trades to bring the 2021 picks we traded away on the spreadsheet to take effect on the Fleaflicker site.
 
Another cool feature with FF....you can have a Supplementary Draft in-sesson or end of season. Any number of rounds.

Once everyone joins, we can take the draft features for a test drive...how it works, the app function of sending phone alerts once a pick is made and you're on the clock, etc Was thinking a one round Supp Draft for the punters. Tho we can also leave this to Blind Bid waivers in the off-season if no one is keen to do a Supp. But in future, each mid season, it might be something we can do — have a 2 or 3 round Supp Draft for something, if anyone comes up with a good idea for why.
 
ClassyGranty why reject the trade? Remember, all these trades ive sent, and waiting on others to propose to others ...is just a way to get all the picks traded this last season over to the new site. In future, all trades will be done there not manually spreadsheet.
