I would like to do this again, but I get sick of people that are inactive once the season starts. Even if you're in last place you need to try to win all season.

This'll be a 16-team league.

I'm gonna go ahead and set it up now. Will post the link and info in a bit.

EDIT: Got it set up.

Click this and click "Join A League", then enter in the following:

League ID: 354889
Password: johncenasucks

I've set stuff like the time of the draft and such just to enter something in. Let me know a convenient time for you to do a live draft. Also, please review the scoring and roster settings and let me know how they should be altered.

Except my quarterback got hurt and I ended up with a 0 every week in that slot because there was no one to pick up. That's not challenging just dumb.

More like bad luck. But yeah. While I did have fun with the 20-team league, there was a real strain on waiver-wire and free agent choices. I know a few times I went to try and pick up a replacement and found no real viable options. I figure 16 teams will stretch things, but not to the extent the 20-team league did.

Also: Please feel free to come up with smart-ass names for your teams like Dilbert and I have. I'm gonna come up with some sort of reward for the funniest team name.

When my kicker went on bye we didn't even have those because a lot of guys were carrying two for some reason.

Huh... so much for keeping on with the history of the previous TCO Leagues.

Is there any point in me continuing the leagues from previous years?

Not really, they had a wasted roster spot most of the year just to hose other people one week a year. Twenty team leagues really are more luck than skill because the teams are stretched too thin.

On second thought......

If you want Goth, I can delete this league and you can restart yours. Lemme know if that's what you want to do.

Yeah, I'd join to keep my crappy record in place.

There were enough roster spots to back up most if not every position so it wasn't a waste. Iirc, most people dropped their extra kicker and defense after their starters bye week.

All fantasy sports are more luck than skill. You have no control over draft position, injuries, play calling, etc.  I think bad luck is more prevalent than good luck.

I`m fine running multiple leagues as well.

But yeah... I`ll restart mine shortly.

I almost need to start a new thread with a vote as to what options people want, including number of teams, positions, etc. etc.

Well, we can't have people in multiple TCO leagues, can we?

Hence I'd rather delete my league and join yours, Goth.

Why not?

Because I shouldn't take a spot in two TCO leagues when someone might not get any spots.

Taking 1 spot in 1 league is = to taking 2 spots in 2 leagues. They still might not get in.

Pitt is right. If you have a 16 team league, and Antigoth has a 16 team league, anywhere from 16-32 people have a chance to play. If AG has a 16 team league, and you delete your 16 team league, exactly 16 people have a chance to play.

Deleting your league seems, to me, to have the exact opposite effect from what you were going for.
