Boards Keeper League

BizzyC

I see the league has been reactivated for the season...

So we need to decide on rule changes:

1:Max Number of Keepers - 8 vs 6?

2:Min Number of Keepers - 4 vs 2?

Are there any other proposals to add to the poll?

eagle eye

Well I don't see why you have to keep any players.

I think that's unfair to a guy who has had players retire or get a bad injury.

So no minimum is my proposal. I think six maximum is fair.

Raoul

I don't really see why you should have to keep anyone either. My problem last year was that we had a rule to keep two or four but some lads ignored it. It was a joke!

I'm happy with whatever once we be clear and everyone does the same

BizzyC

Ok, so we'll have a min vs no min option built in.

1) Max keepers: 8 vs 6

2) Should there be a minimum number of keepers: Yes/No

2a) If there are minimums: 4 vs 2

So if 2 comes out as a no, 2a is redundant.

But if you lose the vote on 2, you can still vote for fewer at least.

Is there a poll going up soon lads? Personally I'd like to see the keeper rule applied as otherwise it's just a redraft league, but I get the point, if nobody can police it then it's difficult to enforce. Maybe lower the number of keepers as suggested.

Serenity Now

My preference is:

6 max

Either no minimum, or 2.

No big deal though, happy to play along whatever.

No, if you don't keep anybody it means you don't have elite players. A team could end up with six keepers and another guy none. That's totally different to a redraft league. You shouldn't be forced to keep any players.

And I'm looking at who to drop, I've got eight guys I could keep.

I have Josh Allen, Mark Andrews, Nick Chubb, Cam Akers, James Conner, Javonte Williams, Tee Higgins and Calvin Ridley to choose from.

As you can see this is not about me, it's about fairness. You could have players retire, players who are out injured for the year and not sure to come back as good as they were, if at all. It's not fair to demand that anybody has to keep players.

billr67

Fair enough I'd find it hard to believe that nobody has at least one elite player but if zero minimum applies then let's go for it

So eight back, that's good.

Raoul

All confirmed.

Waiting on Raven136 to come back.

Copied the following from BizzyC:

1) Max keepers: 8 vs 6

2) Should there be a minimum number of keepers: Yes/No

2a) If there are minimums: 4 vs 2

But if you lose the vote on 2, you can still vote for fewer at least.

Please everyone vote asap by just writing here. Not too many of us in the league, so shouldn't be to hard to count.

1) 8 (if someone wants to keep 8 that is fine with me).

2) no minimum (people shouldn't be punished if they don't want to keep anyone).

wong

I'm in

eagle eye

I vote no minimum keepers and eight max.

Raoul

Any more votes lads?

eagle eye

So everybody is back.

I've set up a doodle to vote for draft date.

I don't think anybody wants to do it before late August so the first date is August 21st.

Serenity Now

done ✅

Raoul

Done.

One other thing we need to discuss is the punishment for people who keep players but then have them in the 3rd round spot and pick a 1st and 2nd or similar.

eagle eye

Thanks can be checked before the draft. Right now all those who have keepers selected have them in the right slots.

League Commish can also edit keepers and put them in the right slots.

tripperman

When was the deadline for selecting keepers

Raoul

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119477751#Comment_119477751

It's usually an hour before the draft or something like that

Serenity Now

I remember it caught a few of us out last year.

Serenity Now

Min & Max results in?

tripperman

Thanks thought it passed on app roster showed as empty, but website different tho so got it done

billr67

I did my keepers on the website so all good, but if someone knows how to do it via the app let me know.

eagle eye

So 6 max keepers wins the day. O min wins the day.

I changed that so everybody must select their keepers again. It just wiped them when I changed it to six.

eagle eye

Only three people have voted for a draft date so far. Can we please get more people to vote now. I want to give the results of the draft date by Saturday.

https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/dLgLnQwb

Serenity Now

4 people filled out the draft dates survey so far, it’s a handy tool, only takes a couple of mins.

Raoul

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119491215#Comment_119491215

Yeah it would be good to get a bit of enthusiasm for the league.

eagle eye

Only four votes for the draft. I'm not waiting any longer.

DRAFT DATE: Tuesday 30th August 10pm.

I'm picking that date so as not to clash with other drafts on this site.

Serenity Now

Sounds good to me, thanks. If you update the draft time on the nfl site it might make sure some others don’t miss it.

eagle eye

Thanks, competely forgot about doing that. 😁

BizzyC

Sorry guys, been away recently.

Thanks for sorting out the rules and draft time!

Brenty

Cheers for that lads, so draft tomor night at 10. We log in and click our keepers an hour before?

Thanks

Raoul

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/119539975#Comment_119539975

Just log in asap and set your keepers

Brenty

Sorry ther lads but how do ya set your keepers on the app?

Cheers

Serenity Now

Have to do it on the computer I’m afraid, only way I believe.

Brenty

Okay, cheers!

eagle eye

I can't get into the draft room, just looking at a circle going round and round.
