As far as settings go I like Zopper's ideas. They seem consistant with what we had in league two last year.

Imran,

As far as the QB scoring is concerned, would you settle for 1/35 instead of 1/20 as well?

QBs would still score higher than any other player on the team without overpowering them.

It's up to you in the end... but with your stats I didn't see anything too horrible in the 1/20 point totals.

1/35 would be better than 1/50 though.

1/40 or 1/35 is fine with me... I dont see any differences in the settings so looks like the two leagues will be identical...except for the competition of course

You forgot K, Sloww.

I personally like:

1 QB
2 RB
2 WR
1 TE
1 K
1 DEF
6 or 8 Bench

(Total has to be even to be fair as far as drafting goes.)

I don't care too much about rules.

Oh, another detail: I prefer smaller leagues.

Btw, why are blocked kicks 2.5 points? I'd suggest making them 3 points, because they may have taken 3 points off the board for the other side, and are just as valuable (if not more so) than INTs.

Int and fumbles are 3 so I bumped safeties up to 3 as well since they are both a score and change of possession and probably a sack all rolled up into 1 play. I put sacks at 1.5...

And I still dont know why they offer return yards in both the offensive and team defense scoring.

I have the league ID which will be sent PM to the players upon formation of the 2 leagues.

Look over the above settings and speak your mind

I'd put a safety back at 2 pts, because that's what it's worth: 2 pts for the team that makes the safety.
Moreover, I agree with that a blocked kick should be 3 pts, because it's basically a turnover and it prevents 3 pts for the offense.

So is it first come first served on this league or should we wait for the second to be created or what?

I don't really have an opinion on the scoring. I've never been in a league and thought it was somehow unfair.

IIRC, 21 people have signed up. So far, nobody has really expressed a clear preference, so I guess we'll randomly assign to league one (my league) or league two (Berz' league).

I'll go with Zop, because I suspect that he might be marginally more patient of me being slow in the draft. (Well, initially at least )

Yo, I'm usually relegated to lurking around here and the SMAC forum these days, but if you're looking for another team to fill out the league, let me know. I've competed the last years as the Fighting Emus, so I know the spiel.
