MISC Dynasty Fantasy Football League

[GolfPants]

I see a bunch of the same posters in this section year after year. Many of us have been in misc seasonal leagues together. I think it's time to up the ante and create a Misc Dynasty Fantasy Football League.

I've floated the idea a few times and received some interest. I'm not sure if there is enough to fill a league but we can try.

Let this thread serve as a sign-up page as well as discussion for potential format.

PPR/standard?
Buy-in amount $?
1 QB or Superflex?
Etc...

I have not done a dynasty league before, but would definitely be interested if we can get one started.

I only got into it over the past couple years but now it's my preferred format. I enjoy the extended time horizon and trading draft picks/building for the future/etc.

[Iceman1800]

Espn, Yahoo or CBS?
Ppr is more fun
1 qb, 2 rb's, 2 wr's and one flex (no qb in flex tho)

Espn, Yahoo or CBS?

I would propose Yahoo with a google sheet for tracking off-season events like trades, draft scheduling, etc. If most people prefer the others though that's fine.

[dhawkeye1980]

Im down

[Iceman1800]

I prefer Espn but it can be voted on. I've played in all 3 and espn is hands down better than the other 2.
And another point. When I'm in the fantasy sports section, I'm not a mod. With the exception of someone posting porn, I turn the mod switch off.

Google sheet would be good for the tracking. I know someone who was doing this I used to work with, seemed like it worked out pretty well. Should also start up something like a slack chat for league conversation, trades etc.

Yeah slack/groupme is another good idea for sure

I'd be interested. I prefer Yahoo! as every other site sucks in comparison.

Agreed on Yahoo.

Op add me to the list. In for Yahoo.

1 QB, 2rb, 2wr, 1TE, 1flex, k, dst (id be willing to play with an IDP or 2 instead of dst since dynasty, but dst is nice)
1/2 PPR

Whatsapp beats groupme by a mile imo, but Yahoo has a good chat built in.
Inexpensive buy in I'm somewhere around $20 is probably about as much as I'd be willing to do. Also, I heard of a really interesting format called empire, where the entire pot is not won each year, so a fraction of it keeps rolling over and when someone's team is finally strong enough to win a second year (in a row), they are paid out the entire pot.

Prefer PPR, Yahoo.

1 QB
2 RB
3 WR
1 WR/RB/TE flex

whatever else you guys want.

[bullybreed]

Sorry guys, I'm out. I just had an unexpected business trip come up. Can't commit to a draft time around the end of August beginning of September.

[weightsb4dates]

Sorry guys, I wanted to get in but I think that might be too many fantasy teams for me to manage this year. Maybe if it doesn't get off the ground this year we can try again next year and I'll get in on the start up draft

[influencerman]

I would like to join a leugue

Looking like that may be the case.

I am interested. I would propose buy-in around ~$50-100 to keep people invested. Dynasty leagues can cause problems if people leave. I would also propose having to pay 2 years worth of buy-ins at the same time for that reason.

Agreed on the buy-in size. Not sure about having people pay 2 buy-ins right away, though I get the thinking. The leagues I'm in you only pay for future buy-ins if you trade future draft picks.

Yeah, I'm good with not having to pay 2 buy-ins right away.

I can see why people would be hestitant, but if someone has a bad dynastry draft there is no incentive to stay in the league for a second year (unless you really like the people, everyone is good friends, etc.). They end up leaving, then it's even hard to get a new person to take over the team, because who would want to pay the same buy-in to get a terrible roster you're going to have to spend 2 years rebuilding when you could just join a new dynasty league or redraft?

Like I said, I definitely get the logic. I'm just thinking we're already having trouble filling up to the point where I kinda doubt it happens this season. Some/most of these brahs are probably new to dynasty and a bit apprehensive. Requiring a double buy-in up front just makes it that much less likely we get this off the ground lol.

But hey if we can get to 12 and people seem cool with it then it's fine by me.

[Iceman1800]

Anti 2 year buy in. We're struggling to get 12 now, that'll make it impossible

[bullybreed]

Any idea when the draft will be and how much buy in is? I'm going to be out of town on business and may not be able to live draft so just wondering.

I'm also against paying for 2 years worth up front.

We still need at least another 3 people or so before we start thinking about potential draft times. But that's why I kept you in the 'interested' list. I reckon if it's right up against the start of the season in sept, or early august you'd still be in?
