    Team McLoughlin (mikemac1) - No activity this week.
    **Will be booted from the league and all players dropped to bench.

    Just let me know when that happens ;)

    I've picked up Dallas Clark :D

    Why is there a 0-0 draw on one of the games?

    When do their players go into FA Rob?

    When do their players go into FA Rob?

    Hadn't planned on doing it as couldn't think of a fair way of distributing them, especially if this happens to more teams (which is unlikely now that the main offenders have been booted).

    Could do a worst-to-first draft of them, if everyone was in agreement (not just a majority, would need to be unanimous to change something like this midway through the league).
    Am open to other suggestions from people

    No way would I go for letting those players go.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    We shouldn't have booted that player. Why not just take over them and put a team in each week that didn't have any byes? Now people are going to have weeks with no games.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,731 ✭✭✭Raoul


    I agree with Matthew :eek: and Santry.

    Matthew: people have done the draft thinking there were a certain amount of people in the league so not fair that the lessor teams (me), should be benefit from other people not playing.

    Santry: I sort of agree. I am sure these teams have beaten people so its unfair that some people will get a walkover. Could have given them to Berty and a couple of others.

    Ohwell, you did what you thought best. It won't make too big of a difference I don't think. :D

    Fair enough, wouldn't be in favour of re-distributing the players either.

    Just looked into it and I can adjust the scoring and scheduling in the league, so what I might be able to do if everyone agrees is:

    1. I can go back and put these teams to zero for every week (so they will lose every week they have played)
    2. Edit the schedule so they only play each for the rest of the season

    Only issues with this are I can't edit divisions now, so BFL North has two of these teams and the two guys left will have an added advantage.
    Will be difficult to keep track of adjusting the schedule to avoid guys playing each other too many times, but think I can do it with a bit of work.

    This would basically remove them completely from league and leave:
    1 division of 4
    2 divisions of 3
    1 division of 2

    Am open to alternative suggestions

    Can you change the players teams? Why not just put their bye weeks players as subs before each week?

    Idea is that these teams shouldn't have a chance at winning and denying an active player a chance at playoffs


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,553 ✭✭✭madalig12

    Do-or-die time for us Heli. Pretty much lose and go home for both of us. Interesting to see which defense you go with, both having awesome matchups.

    Do or die time for myself too. Got lucky last week, won by three points.

    Made some line up changes with Andre and Larry Fitz both playing, i expect epic points this week!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,514 ✭✭✭BigBadRob83


    Have re-jigged the fixtures for next few weeks to make sure that the booted teams play each other as much as possible.
    There will be still be one team that plays a zero team each week, but this can't be avoided with 3 of them. Better than three guys having nothing to play for in a week at least.
    Made sure to avoid people playing same guys twice if possible and no extra divisional match-ups to schedule as balanced as possible.

    Good luck this week lads

    I am looking for Reggie Bush to have a big game this week.

    I hope not ;) looks like a cracking match up between us Raoul. You have edge at running backs I have an edge at wide receivers ...

    Let the smack talk begin !

    Rivers gets me off to a good start anyway with 2 TDs


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,599 ✭✭✭matthew8


    Bold move there leaving Sproles in despite being declared out, might cost you though. Steal of the draft Jay Cutler coming through, he's thriving on the negative energy given off by running up the score.
