13th!!  I'll definitely take that!  Looks like the power of Baby Yoda is working.  I knew putting him as my mascot was a good call.  #Toocutetobeat

Is there an over/under on how many of the 60 guys actually manage their team?

I found a really good caddie to help .

Possible stupid question but, since we are having four duplicates of each player, when we rank players for the draft, if I want to put “Tony Romo” as my first pick, do I need to add him 4 times? Or just once? 

Actually a great question!

I don't think you can have duplicate players on one team so I think it only allows for 1 Romo selection instead of 4.

Although I can understand wanting 4 of him on a team.

We'll follow up on this though.

Along this line of question, my understanding is that the system will take the top player on ones draft list unless said player has already been selected more times than allowed.  At #39 I have moved past any thoughts of getting Romo as my team anchor .  Also, what is the purpose of the $100 showing in my FT bank account?

Second to last. Definitely in the rough to start out!

For those at the bottom of the draft, I am more than willing to trade a draft pick or two if you want to move up and guarantee a top 4 guy. PM me with offers! Let's get this started!

Correct. 

That is your FAAB. It is the amount you have left to bid on players each week. It's a slightly more democratic way than regular reverse standings waivers imo.

This is up for vote though on fantrax. FAAB is what we used for football this past season.

Edit: @fixyurdivot here is a better explanation. Don't forget to vote on fantrax!

I am happy at 9;  I see it as basically a number 3 pick if a player can be on 4 teams.

Quick question...are the tournaments we'll be scoring only related to PGA tour events?  Normally, the week before the open, a lot of ppl play on the European Tour to get practice instead of the John Deere.  Will the people only at the John Deere count, or will our player score as long as they are playing a professional event no matter what tour?

It's PGA events only. There's some funky bits of the schedule you can view by skipping through the list at your team page... One of the notable is instead of the WGC match play, we have the opposite field event that week since they only know how to calculate stroke play events.

That's why you should pick Romo in the first round to spearhead your team in all of those opposite field events throughout the season.

It is possible but football was an exception. I already have a golden ticket for this year by winning golf last year and I didn’t figure I needed 2.

After some heated commissioner debate, I'm gonna add a poll to the existing ones:

Urgent Poll: Best Ball
If Best Ball wins the roster vote, how many "best scores" will count for an 8-man team?

Option A: 4
Option B: 5

 

Please make your way over to the Fantrax home page to cast your vote.  This one closes at the same time as the rest.

I'm now seeing the green asterisk to the left of some player names on my draft list.  Pop-up says "playing in an upcoming tournament".  Does this mean they have committed for the next event?  There are as many (or more) w/o the asterisk - presume that changes as the date gets closer?

Yes that means they have committed to play in the next tourney. Since most players don’t play every week this keeps you from having to sort through the tournament roster list.

So what happens if you don't have enough of your roster to field a full team for an event?
