ILH Fantasy Talk

i havent taught math in years, i teach gov/econ and academic decathlon friend!!!!! #update.xls

sorry was away today. lol i hadnt set up the scoring settings yet. bison you are a genius and im sorry you wasted time but we're going with a standard weekly head to head 8 category league.

Ulysses youre the last one to sign up we need you. i sent the email let me know if you didnt get it.

Did we decide on a draft time?

is it possible to do 7 or 9 categories to avoid ties?

Think I’m gonna keep the draft time as is. I’ll mull Over adding another category. I find 8 cat the best. Head to head winner doesn’t matter as much as head to head category record so a tie won’t really matter in the end

We got 8 it’s on

please just don’t change the settings again, I initially assumed it was 8 category then saw yesterday it was points and so I redid my rankings accordingly and so now I learn that was a total waste of time

xpost got it

Sorry evol I dunno how it changed I never set it as a points league so maybe that was the default and I never set it up right. 8 cat will be the way.

no worries, just glad we're all on the same page now.

About an hour til draft time y’all I hope you’re geared up and ready to draft the best team possible.

i am ready to make some bad decisions

so am I correct in surmising that we can adjust our lineups every day in this league? in other words you don't have to use the same lineup for an entire week? I couldn't find anything that would enable me to lock in a lineup for a whole week so I'm assuming this is the case, but maybe I just overlooked something.

correct. but if you want there is a 'start active players' button on the top left (or its the lightning button on the app) which lets you set the active players for the day or for the rest of the week. if you set it and then make a trade or waiver pickup then i think it resets it.

finally have steph curry on a fantasy team, gonna be a fun season

Starting five are russ, kawhi, lebron, blake and julius randle; i'm goin' to the superbowl

that’s a very injury prone starting five!

lol, you should see my backups!

role player hollafame candidate Danny green came through last night leading the lakers

yeah he balled out. im sure thats sustainable :)

my guys Lowry and Gasol combined for 6/24 from the field last night. Kobe!

championship hangover

having not played fantasy in a few years, the updated game tracker thing is really solid

thanks for sitting giannis against me, sym

Set those lineups boys! lightning button is your best friend.

yeah that was pretty smart, forgot I needed to reset after picking someone up

at least I saved myself from Eric Gordon going 4/19

arrrrrrrrrgh, literally two blocks and ONE MISSED SHOT away from running the table this week

that’s a very injury prone starting five!

half my top ten picks are out, (druss, lowry, vucevic, kyrie, bagley)

rough. yeah ive been dealing with carrying injured players as well. curry and my 4th pick john collins getting suspended was rough cos i cant IR slot him. just trying to survive a few more weeks til i get him back.

hey y'all let's do it

if we are establishing a precedent of multiyear participation, what are ppl's thoughts about keepers?

yah for the crew we had last time i auto-renewed the league with the 8 of us. We can add some more so if anyone else wants in let me know. Or if one of the OGs cant do it also let me know.

I'm down...keepers might be tough if anybody ever quits, but would be fun. As long as I'm not keeping last season's team

yah i like the idea of keepers but with a transient group it will be hard. think i'll just keep it as is for this league.

Works for me. A zoom draft would be cool. I missed the draft night zoom but would love to put some faces (and real names) to all you fine ballers

yeah i don't see a renew my team type function but i'm in as well

I think i just renewed and it says yall are in again but i'll look more into it soon

i think it's fine! just thought i remembered in previous years each player had to press a "yep, I'm back" button or whatever

I think yahoo does automatic renewals now. Down for the zoom draft too.

zoom draft should be good. initial thought is sunday night Dec 20th. Usually the later the better for me but im on MST.

we should prob nail down the draft date/time bc apparently the season starts in a week (?!?)

Yah I’ll nail it down tomorrow during work

Sunday looks good for me! East coast here but 3 young kids so all bets are off with best times. schedule as you will

i'd rather not do keepers but i'll play either way

yah not doing keepers i decided.

do we have everyone?

i know voodoo and heez have posted in this thread as well... feel free to join (just use the link) we want at least 8 teams but can take as many as 12. Any other regular ilhors that want in dont be bashful. I'll lock the teams in a few days.

if get more than 8 teams i will adjust roster sizes. I usually try to keep it around 150 total rostered players in the league.

4 injury slots cos of all the weirdness that the rona will cause.
