Yea you can go and look at my roster if you want. I kid, I kid. It's too early to tell. Quick breakdown of FAAB for those new to it. Alright, so start off by selecting the player you want. On the right hand side of the screen a reddish box will appear, asking for a bid amount. Bid how much you think it will cost to get him. Keep in mind others may want him, but also keep in mind that you have a budget. $2 = 1% of your budget for the rest of the year. Bid sizes are from $0 to $200 in $1 increments. Yes you can bid $0 and win. Myself and @GolfSpy Stroker did this quite a bit in football(him more than me). You just have to hope that nobody else bids, if you bid $0. Also, if 2 players bid the same on a player, tie goes to the player that bid first. These waivers will run every Tuesday morning at 5am. Dropped players will go to waivers until 5am Wednesday giving people time to bid on them as well. If any player makes it through waivers without a bid, then they are a free agent and can be claimed by anyone immediately at no cost. 3 Quote Driver- Tmag 2017 M2 tour issue 8.5* actual loft 7.8* w/ Diamana Ahina 80X 44" Fairway Metal- Tour Edge Exotics XCG7 Beta 3W 13* w/ Matrix 7m4 X 42.5" Utility- Mizuno MPH5 1 iron w/ Aldila RIP 85X (depending on course/ conditions) Irons- Mizuno MP-18 FLI HI 3i and 4i w/ KBS C-taper lite X Mizuno MP59 5i and 6I w/ PX 6.5 Mizuno MP69 7i-PW w/ PX 6.5 Wedges- Scratch 8620 Driver/Slider set. 50*, 56* bent to 55* w/ rifle spinner shafts and Titleist Vokey 60* M grind Putter- Never Compromise Dinero Mogul Ball- Bridgestone Tour B XS Bag- Ogio Aquatech Cart Bag Link to post Share on other sites

Apolloshowl 2,669 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Good draft night for sure... Late on for me with working in Europe but only managed to sleep through my first pick and still got rahm who I wanted anyway. Thanks for all those who participated and organized went very smooth and only missed out on 2 of the guys I was hopeful for. More then willing to wheel and deal and see what we can come up with! Good luck everyone and looking forward to another fun season. 3 Quote as of Sept 24, 2020 SuperSpeed 2020 from 100-112 and climbing!

Wedgie 5,050 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I drafted on my iPad and with my first pick at 54 I was trying to get "Cantlay" and the iPad kept auto correcting to "can't lay" when I was searching for him. With the clock ticking I had to get Day, he is on the trading block if anyone is interested. 1 Quote Wedgie Driver - XXIO X Driver 9.5 - Launcher Turbo 2 hybrid - F9 One Length 3-G - CBX 52 and 56 - ER 1.2 Top Flite Gamer Play Right Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post STUDque 11,887 Posted January 17, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 17, 2020 Poll Results, Their Effects on the League, and the Playoff Format Here's a quick rundown of how the polls shook out and how they affect your week-to-week team management.... Draft Date & Time. The setup seemed to work for more than half the league so thanks to everyone who was able to join and special thanks to those who set up auto draft prior. Once we got past the first round, the draft really flew by. 1 hour total was fantastic to cover so many picks. FAAB. @Undershooter posted how it works. The only note I'll add is that since we only drafted 6 players last night, you still need to hit the waiver wire for your remaining 2. The $200 budget is for the whole season. Once you're out, you can only win $0 bids. Best Ball, Best 4. What does this mean? It means there's no start/sit decisions to make. You have 8 players on your team and the decisions is your total roster from week to week. The best 4 scores count to your total. Be careful who you drop though because those players become available to the rest of the league. Regular Season H2H. We're playing everyone vs everyone, every week. Or, just think of it like we're playing tournaments like the PGA. Whatever place you fall in the league is how many "wins" you get. In Live Scoring, the matchups tab is going to look crazy. I recommend watching the "All Teams" part of that to get a gauge for where you stand vs the rest of the league. This format is great because it's 100% matchup proof and the best teams will succeed. The downside is Fantrax doesn't have a great way to display it. PLAYER DUPLICATES. This wasn't a vote but there's been lots of questions about it. There are 4 copies of each player. 4 of Brooks, 4 of Rickie, 4 of Tiger....etc. YOU CANNOT OWN MORE THAN ONE COPY OF A GIVEN PLAYER. This causes a glitch in the matrix. In our test league, we were actually able to complete a trade that put 2 of JT onto one team....only problem is, the 2nd JT disappeared altogether once it went through. We reported this bug to Fantrax but will need to keep an eye on any trades that go through to ensure you don't put yourself in a pickle. +++++++++++++++++++++++ Playoffs. We've had a different format in each of the 3 seasons thus far. It's hard work to find something that makes sense for golf and keeps things interesting down to the final week. This one will closely mimic the FedEx playoffs and runs during the same weeks. 30 teams make the playoffs, 20 from the first event advance, and the final 10 will compete for the League Championship Points are reset heading into the playoffs. From there, the totals are cumulative (ie. points from the first playoff event carry to your 2nd and 3rd.) Bonuses are awarded based on regular season finish. 1st: 40 2nd: 35 3rd: 30 4th: 25 5-10: 20 10-20: 10 20-30: Good Luck Does this all make sense? If not, please get your questions out now so you can be informed as the season progresses.

GolfSpy MPR 10,593 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Something odd to see on the waiver wires: some guys who you can either claim OR trade for.

gobama84 129 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Since we (meaning ME) seem to still have questions about waivers. I am assuming we only see players that have not been picked 4 times, so why would someone drop a player they picked up via the draft for an undrafted player? I guess if you auto drafted that might be the case.

You can hope those player knock it out of the park and you get a win or you can drop a player and pick someone up that is in the tournament. Also players get hurt, do you keep them hoping they come back quickly or pick up someone else to maximize players Probably not going to drop your big guns to save them for the majors and big tourneys. Mid to lower tier will be added and dropped based on how well they are performing. How about that guy that never played well but has a breakout season, may want to throw a bid out and see if you can get him 1 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: TS3 15* set to 16.5* w/Project X Hzardous Smoke Hybrids: 816H1 19* set at 18* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 24* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 6-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 588 54-14, 58-12 Putter: TM-180 Backups: 6330, ER2.2, Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to post Share on other sites
