Anyone up for a /sp/ Fantasy Baseball League?
>> Giovanni Sinclair !kPeYgxvYE2
Sure why the hell not. But how will we do it?
>> Anonymous
didn't we just have a thread?

Yes, only if its a live draft
>> R'
Yahoo good for everyone?

Yes, it will be a live draft.

You won't play because of that?

I'm in, so long as it's not full of retarded stat categories like outfield assists. And we'll live without stat tracker I think.

I'd like to see this shit get stickied, because I'm going to bed, and i don't want to stay up just to get the link.

don't worry the thread will be here in 12 hours even if it doesn't get bumped after this.

Also I'm down, I'd prefer 5x5 roto, the more players the better. But am down for any kind.
>> R'
I'm stilling waiting to make it to see how many people we can get before making it.

>>12575
I was thinking of Roto as well.

Any roto league I've been in has been incredibly boring. Tossing out a request for H2H if league gets made.

I'd do it for sure

I vote Yahoo!

I'm in. Yahoo works.
>> R'
Yahoo! it is.

How long everyone want till draft day?
>> Kilga M. Aya~n !2BklmILFiE
I can do pretty much any time before March 21st.

I'd rather not wait too long.

i'd be in. has the league been created?
>> R'
Creating now.
>> thetruth !!aGXBnMVTlN3
I understand it's hard to weed out people who are all excited, then draft a shitty team and never log on again, but please spare us if this sounds like you. Before joining ask yourself what percentage of your teams you had Ryan Braun on last year, if the answer is not 100% you probably aren't active enough.
>> Anonymous
>>12639

If the answer is 100%, you need to get out of the house more. Srsly.
>> Anonymous
>>12639

by that rationale, there's only one active manager per league. i understand your meaning though. baseball is not for fantasy wimps.
>> thetruth !!aGXBnMVTlN3
>>12642

touche

But I think you active guys know what I mean. Even in pay leagues, if you haven't played with the managers before or know them in RL, the odds you have 3 or fewer active managers at the all star break are pretty high.
>> Anonymous
>>12647

In roto leagues, yeah, because all but the top three teams are so far behind that they know they won't win. In H2H there's usually 75-80% left in july.
>> R'
Head to Head good?
>> Anonymous
yeah, i vote head-to-head all the way. roto is just so dull.
>> Anonymous
>>12667

definitely. more people in contention, playoffs, and we can talk shit to each other.
>> R'
Draft date is March 5th. Any time preferences?

anytime in the afternoon or evening is fine by me
>> Giovanni Sinclair !kPeYgxvYE2
Afternoon/Evening would be good.
>> R'
Noon fine?
>> Anonymous
>>12681

make it in the evening so it has a convenient time for people in the EST and the PST.

>>12700

>> Red Machine D !h1LZxECEVA
>>12681

8pm EST? I'll be sure to schedule work around it, because fantasy baseball is srs bsns.
>> Giovanni Sinclair !kPeYgxvYE2
>>12711
I think 8EST would work good for everyone.
>> R'
8EST it is.
>> Red Machine D !h1LZxECEVA
>>12719

Yeah. 8pm EST seems to be in that magic spot that works for all time zones. Eastern and Central are already home and on the net, Mountain is just getting home, and Pacific is at the tail end of the workday and the boss could give a fuck less. Everybody wins!
>> R'
What does everyone want scores to be on?
>> Anonymous
let's get the league made and then we can discuss scoring and stuff on the league page.
>> Red Machine D !h1LZxECEVA
>>12732

Yahoo! default never seemed to go wrong.

Also, I know it goes without saying, but the max number of teams would be awesome.
>> Anonymous
Set the minimum innings pitched up to like 30-40 so people don't bench their pitchers as much. Adding the IP category works nice for that too.

Add a second utility slot.

Other than that, standard Yahoo settings are fine.
>> R'
Start posting the setting changes you want here.
>> Anonymous
>>12762

Second. That would make things a little more interesting.
>> Anonymous
I say change the max moves to 50-60 too, so people can't keep adding and dropping starting pitchers all season to take the wins and k's categories.
>> R'
Anyone want more Starters or Relievers?

LF,CF,RF or just 3 outfielders?
>> Kilga M. Aya~n !2BklmILFiE
>>12767

Those people get fucked in ERA and WHIP so it's ultimately a wash anyway.
>> Anonymous
the of's are fine, but another sp slot would be nice
>> Kilgamayan !2BklmILFiE
God I'm tired of looking at that gimmick name.

>>12769

3 generic OF is fine. I'd suggest adding a 4th if the turnout isn't great but that doesn't look like it'll be a problem.

You might also want to try SP/SP/SP/RP/RP/RP/P/P.
>> Anonymous
wait why is the draft at 11:00 EST? I thought we agreed on 9?
>> Anonymous
>>12769

How about make one of the utility guys a generic OF and then make LF, CF, RF?
>> Anonymous
>>12775

or 8 i mean
>> Anonymous
>>12770

Not always. And it really gets cheap if someone does that in the playoffs.
>> Ass-Dribbles
>>12780

yes, we need a move cap.
>> Anonymous
err...4 relief pitchers is a bit much.
>> Kilgamayan !2BklmILFiE
>>12776

Outfield distinctions suck. :V

>>12780

So do it right back to them. I took out a rotationfag in the finals of a 06-07 basketball league that way.

The few people I've seen try it in baseball leagues have never succeeded.
>> R'
Whats everyone want as Max pick-up and trade?
>> Anonymous
i vote max moves 60, trades unlimited
>> Ass-Dribbles
max moves 60 or 70, with maybe 8 or so as a weekly cap.
>> Red Machine D !h1LZxECEVA
>>12805

Unlimited trades is fine, but max moves should be 50.
>> R'
Everything's updated.

Have a look.

Looks good. Only thing I'd still suggest is to up the min. innings pitched so people have to use their pitchers.

20 good?
>> Anonymous
>>12833

30 would work. Starting pitching might be a little tight with 20 teams, but everyone should be able to get 30 innings at least.

>>12843
Uped to 35.
>> Ass-Dribbles
>>12847

35 is a little steep, i'd go with 30
>> Anonymous
Yeah, 30 would be better. With 20 teams, we'll all be scrambling to pick up the Royals' fifth starter to boost innings.

With about 2 weeks to go and spots still open....20 teams GET.
>> Red Machine D !h1LZxECEVA
>>12865

We'll for sure have 20 teams as long as we keep a presence on the front page. If a new thread was made with all the info in the first post and it got stickied, we'd have it full by Monday morning. Hell, we might even need to make a new league.

We'd have serious issues filling our rosters with more than 20 teams.
>> Red Machine D !h1LZxECEVA

I have a feeling there's more than 20 /sp/ortsters willing to get some FBB.
>> Anonymous
Could someone sticky this?
>> Anonymous
Actually, I think 20 might be the max number of teams Yahoo allows, so it don't matter anyway.
>> Kilgamayan !2BklmILFiE
>>12882is correct.

On a somewhat related note, how is this board that popular? I remember back when it was around the first time that it was pretty dead, which is why it got deleted.
>> Red Machine D !h1LZxECEVA
>>12882

Thus why I mentioned the possible need for another league.

i don't think we need a sticky, league's already 9/20. if someone bumps this thread tomorrow afternoon, league will be full or close to it.

As long as we keep the wrasslin' fags to a minimum, i think we're on a good track.

It's been, what, three or four days and we're already almost at 13000 posts.
>> Red Machine D !h1LZxECEVA
>>12903

It's not the wrasslin' fags that we need to worry about, it's more like the trolls from other boards and the "armoured amerikkkan wankball" trolls that we have to be concerned with.
>> Lambchop's Death Legion
>>12909

there has been some "amerikkkan" shitstorms, but I think its been fairly civil comparatively since its inception.
>> Red Machine D !h1LZxECEVA

Yeah, this may be the most civil board thus far.
