Returners should be the only ones getting points for touchdowns and should also get the yardage, says I.
Am I not needed this time? :(
Baz you are welcome to join up, we are only at 8 players if everyone accepts so we could still do with a couple more.
I will have to send you an invite this evening after work, unless someone else can forward the link on to you.
I quite like yardage points, especially in a bigger league with bigger rosters.Quote:

Return yards can be added I guess. What is the normal point value for it?
Same as for receiving/rushing yards is how I've always seen it.
Unless you have a freak like a young Devin Hester they're never stars even with the yardage.
No, it's usually less.
1 point per 25 or 30 yards.
If it's the same as rushing/receiving then a player could get a maximum of 16.9 points for a return TD.
I have invited Baz, which takes us to 9 invites sent (5 teams confirmed so far).
If we end up with 9 (or 7) and no one else from the forum wants in I'll just invite 'Fay's Fall Guys' who has played in every other TTH league so far (well since I've been doing it anyway). Invite goes to forum members first though so if anyone else is interested who hasn't posted yet then let me know.
Should we try @Mert again?
Does this include @bruhnaldo ?
I was sent an invitation if that's the Q. Work computer has yahoo blocked so will try and jump on mobile/home pc to set up my team tonight.
What are we thinking for draft date/time?
Saturday the 2nd September at roughly 9:30-10pmGMT should do us fine surely?
I have no idea what I'll be doing next week, let alone in September :D
The answer is probably 'nothing' though, so whenever is fine for me.
We are still only at 6/10 teams, still waiting on Ian, Gray Fox and Bruhnaldo to join up.
Still got that 1 open spot if anyone else on the forum wants it too.
I'm useless for seeing the notifications at the top. Will sort it out.
Have we invited @Limoutsonik yet?Quote:

Sorry fellas, was on an away day bus trip and haven't really been near a computer that actually lets me into yahoo.
Apologies.
I love a bit of Fantasy Football drama in the afternoon.
Commissioner of a league I'm in announced a new keeper rule which I was always sceptical about but willing to try. Basically you could keep 1 player at last year's draft cost but also had the option of keeping a 2nd player for a 3rd round pick, unless you kept picks 1 and 2 (not getting a discount for doing that) or your first keeper was round 3, in which case the 2nd guy would be round 2. When it was announced I didn't really like it, but I was willing to roll with it.
He quickly told everyone he was keeping Shady (round 4) and Brady (round 5 last year, but he'd have to pay round 3). In a 2 QB league that's good value on both. This morning I looked at my options. I was inclined to keep Antonio Brown (round 1) and Zeke (round 2) even though it cost a fuck ton, why not? But no... he tells me anyone who keeps a round 1 guy doesn't get a 2nd keeper. Goal posts moved already, but whatever. I'll keep Zeke (round 2) and Luck (round 5 last year, the same as Brady, but I'd have to pay round 3 right..... RIGHT?!)
Lol Nope.
He wanted me to pay a 1st for Luck because the idea is the 2nd keeper (later keeper) has to cost more than the first keeper. What the fuck is that? I pointed out we'd both be keeping a RB at last years cost and a 5th round QB... but he wanted me to pay a 1st to his 3rd? He wasn't budging so I outright told him it's funny how he designed a system to punish people who wanted to keep a round 1-3 guy in a year where he wanted his round 4 and round 5 picks and to remove me from the league. Rather than do the right thing (make EVERYONE'S 2nd keeper a 3rd rounder) he decided we'll just have a 1 keeper system rather than see me walk out. It's so fucking transparent he was hoping no one would call him out on the BS system.
I really shouldn't care so much about such things, but he's the same guy I've mentioned before with a long history of trying to twist things to his advantage, and I wasn't having it.
God I love this game. :drool:
tldr but :D
That's fucking mental.
Why have you all not set up a new league without him yet? :D
Well, he quit my main league, which helps, but I was in a number of leagues with him. Thankfully he only runs 1 of them, and he can't do too much damage in the other one I'm in with him because it's my league and I won't listen to him.
Frankly I wish he had let me quit though as I could stand to lose a league and that one is the one I care least about by a considerable margin.
Ian has joined so just waiting on two now.
Still need another player as well.
Are we all in? :sherlock:
Still waiting on Gray Fox and Bruhnaldo I think.
And still need 1 more player, but I have confirmed my back up option will play if no one else does.
Is Bruh ever coming back after the latest meltdown? :D
I'm in. I had Yahoo open in 2 tabs, so signed up the Mrs accidentally. I've deleted her out now though.
I never left you fucking goofball.Quote:

Any issues with the Sunday night let me know and we'll see where we can fit it in.
Are you still intending to join Bruhnaldo?
What we going for in the end? Normal, dynasty or what?
I don't see it being a dynasty.
A keeper league potentially (probably 1-2 per team) depending how many return.
We have actual preseason football tonight :alan:
I watched the full, 3hr broadcast replay of the hall of fame game I was so starved (think I swapped to condensed midway through, to be fair), so it's a glorious prospect to have regular football back.
1-2 keeper I think, a dynasty isn't for the faint at heart.
If people are interested (you keep as many of your team as you want and you add to those players with rookies/players coming back/people who were cut etc in each new draft) I would be willing to create the league.
I think we see if we get the same turnout over again this year. If people are still interested in 2018 then start a Dynasty league.
I'm not sure I can handle 2 dynasty leagues (I've just created 1) but maybe I'd be up for it, we will see how I get on with this one.
lol at anyone who drafted early and ended up taking 'Zeke'.
My bad I'll jump on this tonight.
This is why you dont draft early :D
In one of my leagues,i have Zeke on my team,should i dangle him like a carrot?
I would to see what offers you get.
What are your backups like?
I had Zeke locked in as a keeper in one league but have had to change it to Cousins. Good times.
Mark Ingram and Latavius Murray :happycry:Quote:

My money is on 4 after appeal.
If Zeke goes down to 4 after appeal he's probably worth storing.
