I've been a league that used Buzzfeed and it seemed to work pretty well.

So I see others have noticed that YAHOO is out of the Golf fantasy biz. Are we going to try having groups anywhere else or just ,,,,,,, BAGGING it this 2018 seaon?

I went and looked at Buzzfantasyleagues.com.

 

They allow you set up a tiered league similar to what we had on Yahoo.  This is the details, what does everyone think?

 

Tiered Team Selection
Each fantasy team will choose a set amount of golfers from different tiers. Each team will be required to select a specific amount of golfers from each of the tiers. The tiers and golfer amounts can be set by the commissioner of the league. Buzz Fantasy Leagues allows up to 20 different tiers for a league. A commissioner may also choose the default values.

Buzz Fantasy Leagues Defaults:

• Tier A: Teams must draft 2 golfers
• Tier B: Teams must draft 2 golfers
• Tier C: Teams must draft 1 golfer

Id be more than willing to run it.  It does cost a small bit to set up.  Here is the pricing scale:

 

Standard League

Pricing Teams Tournaments Price

Up to 25 Teams Single Tournament $20.00   Multiple Tournaments $50.00 

Up to 50 Teams Single Tournament $30.00   Multiple Tournament $75.00

Up to 100 Teams Single Tournament $40.00   Multiple Tournaments $100.00

Unlimited Teams Single Tournament $50.00   Multiple Tournaments $125.00

I'm in ... whatever the format ... know it well .. You can also set up the prize structure ...  I prefer Multiple Tournament .. 

You can easily recoop the cost .. by getting a committment from all who are interested ... and the left over amount would go to the top 3 or top 10 ... etc...

 

You decide ... most of us can pay by paypal I imagine...

I was thinking like 10 or 20.  Then after it pays for the tournament, then we do a Top 3 payout or something like that.

 

If MGS wants to still do the Bridgestone thing we can figure that out too.

I'm in if y'all set it up. I'd done Yahoo for years; was really bummed they dropped it. Always a fun distraction, unless you forget to set your roster...

Sounds good to me, I've paid for that type league before and anything around $10 to $20 is reasonable, sounds like there would be a sizable amount to pay out.  One think I liked about the MGS one was there were some payout times along the way.  It doesn't have to be weekly, but say one after each major then a final one at the playoffs.  The amount can be determined obviously by the number of players that sign up.  But say you have 50 players sign up at $20 each, the $1,000 minus the $75 fee for 50 person multiple tournament league leaves a good amount to be paid out in prize money.

Seems to be just what we're looking for. I think it even has free options. I could take a stab at commish if there's enough interested folks.

I just started a separate thread for 2018 so go ahead and vote for format on that one.
