I’ll redirect the beer I’m sending Sinn to you.#1 waiver priority checking in here. Send me your best offers for Gareth Bale.
I’ll trade you Bale for #4 priority and Sinn/Gator can never post in the PSF again. If it happens, I keep the waiver and get Bale back.I’ll redirect the beer I’m sending Sinn to you.
Good job avoiding, "Administration"Suck it all of you! My team now has positive points! That means I win!
Suck it #####es!
you can play whoever or nobody as long as the roster is legal (3D, 2M, 1F, 1G)Do you have to start a full 11 or can we sit players?

So I'm the "Settings Guy" for all three of the magic football leagues I commish or co-commish. My home league is in its 19th year while the other two have been around for at least six.Sinn Fein said:In anticipation of @Poke_4_Life complaining about the scoring - I created a separate league using our scoring from last year:
Slow Pokes:
2019 - 18.93 - teams get 22 points just for showing up
2020 - 15
Sinn/Gator/Bluto
2019 - 50.03 - this would be a winning score in most weeks
2020 - 101.75
The differences in scoring are at the extremes. This year the scoring really rewards Goal/Assists/Clean Sheets, and really punishes bad results like Goals Against and Yellow Cards. In this particular game, we had 5 assists, 2 goals, 1 clean sheet and Poke had none of those, so it should not be close. Poke just had a down week, after leading the league in scoring in week 1.
Last year we also rewarded teams with 22 points just for picking players who started - so Poke's team actually would have lost points for on-field performance.
I think there may be room for some tweaking at the end of the season, but I think this scoring is not really impacting results in any meaningful way from last year.
3. I have added 2 injured reserve spots to the teams - these can ONLY be used if/while a player who is already on your roster is forced to quarantine for some period of time (typically it will be 14 days). Players cannot be added for any other reason (in keeping with previous years). And, you may not add a player from waivers/FA to the IR - only players that were already on your roster when they were required to quarantine.*
Bruno Fernandes and David de Gea
I thought about that - but in theory they could have picked those players up by dropping someone else.It shouldn't just be 2 players. It should be the 2 players they picked up.
It was bolded in the original...Didn't read the fine print. If you put 'em there I'm going to use them.
Went ahead and fixed it.
The original what?It was bolded in the original...

I think I tagged everyone.
First, good luck in the upcoming season. I hope everyone has an injury-free season.
Second, just a reminder that the goal is to run waivers in between each match week - so that may mean running waivers on Monday nights and Thursday nights - 9:00 ET each night - depending on how the mid-weeks are setup. I will post a reminder when we get close.
Third - and most important - COVID rules:
1. If the season is canceled with less than 19 games played for all PL teams - we will simply refund everyone the $35.
2. If the season is canceled after 19 games have been played - we will pay out according to the standings at that time.
3. I have added 2 injured reserve spots to the teams - these can ONLY be used if/while a player who is already on your roster is forced to quarantine for some period of time (typically it will be 14 days). Players cannot be added for any other reason (in keeping with previous years). And, you may not add a player from waivers/FA to the IR - only players that were already on your roster when they were required to quarantine.*
4. I am doing this somewhat on the fly, I reserve the right to make reasonable adjustments if the situation warrants. Hopefully it does not come to that.
5. If the season is "postponed" we will simply wait it out until they reach a conclusion - like last season.
*If you use the IR inappropriately, I will send a message, and if its not fixed, I will cut the player from the roster as punishment...
Any questions? PM @Bluto Blutarsky
I thought about you when he picked up the yellow - but assumed you had him on the bench this week...I almost had no negative points. If only Lewis had stayed on the bench.
No other defenders healthy to fill the roster.I thought about you when he picked up the yellow - but assumed you had him on the bench this week...
Done.Not letting me move Thiago to the COVID IR spot. Please adivce.
He’s holding out for a transfer to AFCNot letting me move Thiago to the COVID IR spot. Please adivce.
You got that right. For players and teams.There will be a much higher variance from game-to-game.
SRCUFC - 110, 101, 41, 105 (which was a loss while outscoring 9 teams)
Was never in doubt imo.
I am guessing you did not follow the results as closely as I did on Sunday...(seeing as you never used your 11th player)
This was a crazy matchup - with wild lead changes after every match.
Going into the last game - we had a ~28 point lead, after overcoming a 26-point deficit heading into Spurs/United - I assumed we were home free. As the game went on, I was texting/cursing @Bluto Blutarsky with each goal that Liverpool shipped - even hoping that Villa would simply kill off the game at halftime...
Fortunately, Trezeguet was subbed off with 4 minutes to go, and we held on to a 4-point win.
