Think about it this way, if the division record ends in a tie it defaults to total points anyway, plus it takes some of the inherent schedule luck out of the system. This could lead to, for example, a team 33rd in overall points, but went 7-4 in their division being ranked ahead of a team 16th in overall points, but 5-5 in their division. 3 Quote ST180, 10.5, Kuro Kage Silver TINI Dual Core 60-S Epic Flash Sub Zero, 15*, Kuro Kage Silver TINI Dual Core 60-S F9 Speedback, 18.5, Hzrdus Yellow 70-S G710, 4-UW, Blue Dot, Nippon Modus 105-S TW-W4, 56*, Nippon Modus 125 T20, 61*, Nippon Modus 125 Pipe (awaiting a SIK Flo-C) Tour B-XS (2019) Link to post Share on other sites

KurtActual 378 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I do agree. I think next year it should be Overall Record, Conf. Record, then Points Scored. Edit: I have no dog in this fight.

It all depends on how we can manage the schedules. If people are not playing the exact same schedules within their division then points scored is the best tie-breaker. Luck already plays a huge factor in your overall record (matchups, bye weeks, injuries, etc) but that doesn't mean we have to double dip with it to break ties. Just remember that you are already starting with a 43% chance of making the playoffs (6 out of 14 teams) and realistically it's probably a little higher than that due to people dropping out or not setting their lineups. We can always put this up for vote next year but we cannot change the rules mid-season for this year. 2 Quote Driver: F9 10.5°, Fujikura Ventus Blue 6X Fairway Wood: F9, Fujikura ATMOS TS Black 7X 3 Hybrid: F9, N.S.

Apolloshowl 2,403 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 I'm sure just like previous years we will make small changes and tweaks and put it to a vote at the beginning of the season. Overall it's been a good season all things considered with injuries and all. Also Steelers/Ravens game getting postponed doesn't help. I would love to see another flex spot in play!

Definitely something to consider for next year, though! We can definitely look at a league vote for next year. Just know that all 4 commissioners were firmly behind points as a tie breaker. Fantasy football doesn't really lineup with actual football when considering what's fair bc you can only control your own team. You can't affect the other team at all. There's no schematic advantage or matching up with other peoples strengths and weaknesses. You just have to score the most points. So points are essentially the be all end all when comparing teams in fantasy sports. And while yes, a conference winner is a conference winner. However, we are talking about the 4 spot in this division. Neither team would make the playoffs in a true wildcard scenario.

revkev 22,638 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Getting off the tie breaker discussion because we already have the rules in place for this year - what is going to happen with the Tuesday Night game? I played the weekend as if it would not count for this week. Will it count at all? If so for which week - assuming it's played. As an FYI I'm in complete agreement that only points really matter. My other league is a weekly rotisserie modified keeper league. The scoring is really funky, lots of bonuses, no minuses so a QB could throw 4 picks and totally blow the game but be a great player for you because he had to keep chucking it and threw for 300 yards and 2 TDs. At any rate there are 8 teams, the top score gets 8 points for the week and all the way down to 1 for the bottom team. The points accumulate and that's how standings are determined - top 4 teams make the playoffs and the playoff is two weeks, total points, winner take all. Of course that would get crazy with 64 teams or however many we have but it's great with 8. Any experienced FFBer has made his share of playoffs when he shouldn't have and not made it when he should have. 2 Quote Ping G410 - turned down to11.25 degrees, neutral setting - Fujikura Motore X R flex Ping G410 5-9 wood Wilson D7 forged 6-GW - Mamiya recoil 460 R flex SCOR 52,60 EVNRoll ER 5 Titleist Pro VIx optic yellow with revkev stamped on them Currently testing Edison wedges to replace SCORS that are wearing out.

Bucky CC 2,825 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Yes we are aware that Pittsburgh-Baltimore is tentatively rescheduled for Wednesday. No, we aren't sure yet what this means. The latest update from MFL is that they are currently in discussions. We'll keep everyone in the loop as we find out more. In the mean time you may want to play it safe and try to find alternatives to any Steelers or Ravens players still in your lineup.
