Exclusive 2017 RipCityTwo Fantasy Football

[BonesJones]

Hello everyone!

I'm going to start setting up Fantasy Football for this year.

Heres a few basic things I'll be keeping in this league:
1.) 10-12 Teams
2.) PPR Scoring
3.) 6 Team Playoffs (1 & 2 get BYES)

I have a couple new ideas that are changes from last year, and I'm looking for feedback:
1.) FLEX instead of RB/WR
2.) 2 QBs (Especially w/ 10 Teams)
3.) Small payouts to highest scoring team in a week.

As far as payouts:
Id like to do a $50 buy-in, but I want everyone to be happy with the buy-in, so of its lower, that's fine. A $50 buy-in would allow me to pay out $10 a week to the highest scorer. Lower than $50 would mean I'd do $5 per week.

As far as the draft:
I'd love to meet some of you guys and do an offline draft (maybe at BWW?). For those that couldn't attend, I'd post a thread with live draft results, and would tag you when your pick is up. You would post your pick in the thread and we'd move on our way.

@Sedatedfork @VanillaGorilla @BoBoBREWSKI @HAAK72 @trailblazer18 @RipCityDSCPL @JDC @RipCityWarrior So you guys plan on returning and what do you think about an in-person draft?

Is anyone else interested in joining this upcoming season?

FLEX instead of RB/WR - good idea
I vote for $25 buy in and no weekly winners. All the $$ goes to 1st and 2nd place at the end of the season.

I'm definitely in. I am good with a $50 buy in and weekly payouts. This is not crucial for me though, so if a $25 buy in is better for the majority, I am fine with that.

I like the updates proposed. I'm always interested in trying new tweaks to fantasy football.

I'm not local, so most likely I couldn't attend an in person draft, but I could post my picks in a thread, no problem.

Thanks for putting this together again @BonesJones

Awesome, sounds good man. Thanks!

1.) yes
2.) maybe
3.) could be interesting, but lowers final payouts

Still think standard payout of 1st = 60% // 2nd = 30% // 3rd = 10% would be the best way to go -- last year's payouts were disappointing (and I'm not just talking about the speed in which they happened either )

I am interested and am onboard with the idea of a flex as well as the 2 Qb's I already spend a decent clip on fantasy football so 25 would make my wife happier. But if you all decide that 50 is the dollar amount that is fine also.

If we have 12 teams, then we cant do 2 QB's. I prefer to keep it at 1 QB.
