Title: Ima gonna host a fun little contest
Post by FourTwoOh on Dec 23rd, 2002, 2:49pm
I've played in a little playoff contest the last 3 years that is fairly quick and I think, a lot of fun. The Sporting News hosted it as a freebie last year and along with the free salary cap league that I played there have taken it to a pay  game this year. Screw that! You are all welcome to join in if you'd like.  I run it from right here.

The premise:

From a set list of players {qb, rb, wr}, you will pick one each to score the most points in that weekends playoff game. Scoring will be 1 pt per yard and 60 points for any td. The catch, if you will, is once you use a player, he is no longer available to you. One and done. So not only do you need to factor in who goes big this week, but who goes home, as well.

Obviously I can't set the list of players yet as the AFC refuses to cooperate and pick it's playoff teams.  ;D

Full rules and al to follow, but wanted to get this out there before people cashed it in for the season. It's just a fun way to finish off the year and take a little edge off of that fantasy withdrawl so common this time of year.

Anybody and every body welcome. Just watch this thread for more info.

Later.

I will be participating!

Unfortunately, I still have a GBRFL championship pending that I will unbelievably have to continue to focus on until next week's over, ::) so I won't be able to redirect my efforts right away.

But, you can count on me and count me in! ;D

Great idea.   [smiley=arguing.gif]Keep this going another 5 weeks.

Title: Re: Ima gonna host a fun little contest
Post by FourTwoOh on Dec 23rd, 2002, 7:08pm
Looking good!

As a heads up, the list of players will be made from each NFL playoff team's:

qb - 1 from each real playoff team
rb - top 2 scorers from each rpt  {using this scoring}
wr - top 2 wr and top te {used as a wr in this} from each rpt

There may be some exceptions. Eagle qb comes to mind. List Feely or McNabb? May have both in that and any other similar situations. There will be links to my web site for "research" of how players did in this scoring system and that sort of thing.

Invite some of your outside league mates to sign up and join in as well. The more the merrier! The only effect of getting this as large as possible would be in how quickly I can report that weeks results. Having "no life" will finally be an asset!  [smiley=rollinwithlaughter.gif]

Stay tuned...

OK - you'll have to explain this a little better for   [smiley=newbie.gif]s like myself.

I pick one player from that list - the person who I think will score the most points using your system.  The catch is that I can only use that player one time during the playoffs.

Each week, you'll tally up the points and we'll have a running total going until the Super Bowl??  Or is this an elimination pool?

"official rules"

**************************************
Playoff 3 for All Football

Overview:

In Playoff 3 for All Football, you pick three players each weekend of the 2002-2003 Playoffs to earn you fantasy points. The challenging part is, you cannot pick any player more than once over the duration of the playoffs. While it's quick and easy to make your picks, you'll need to strategize to figure out when to pick each player.

Selecting A Team:

Each week you will choose three players: one Quarterback, one Running Back, and one Wide Receiver from the list I provide.
You can only use each player once! Once you select a player for a particular weekend, that player will not be available to you during the rest of the playoffs.
Each weekend you will have to make sure you have selected three NEW players by the Picks Freeze - 12pm ET on the day of the first games of each weekend during the playoffs.

Scoring:

The players you picked will earn points based on their on-field success that weekend. Points will be awarded in the following manner:

Yards (Passing + Receiving + Rushing): 1 point per yard
Touchdowns (Rushing + Receiving + Passing + Kick and Punt Return): 60 points per TD

Picks Freeze (12pm EST the day of the first games of each weekend during the Playoffs):

You must select three NEW players each weekend.
There is a picks freeze the day of the first games of each weekend during the Playoffs at 12PM ET. You will only be awarded points that weekend for the players you've picked by that time. I'll not be checking for dupes until I tally each weeks scores, so if you accidently use the same player more than once, you will recieve zero points at that player's position. You can simply post your three players here, or if you would prefer not to let your opponents see your picks{highly recommended} prior to the weekly deadline, feel free to email your weekly selections to:

johnqpublic@swirvemail.com

and I'll post the entry's here, shortly after each weeks deadline.

Along those lines, I will post my weekly selestions here by Wednesday of each week. I don't want there to be an advantage for me, by knowing your all's picks, so I'll take a slight disadvantage in exposing my strategy to allow me to "commish" AND play.

2002-2003 Playoffs Picks Freezes
Week 1 (Wild Card): Sat, 1/4 Noon ET
Week 2 (Div. Playoffs): Sat, 1/11 Noon ET
Week 3 (Conf. Champs.): Sun, 1/19 Noon ET
Week 4 (Super Bowl): Sun, 1/26 Noon ET

****************************************
Off to put up some web pages. Links will be posted right here. What will be on these pages is some year to date scoring info to give you some idea of how players performed under this system, plus some defensive stats for the teams in the playoffs.

Clear as mud?  :) Ask away!

Still plenty of time, just wanted to give eveyone a good morning heads up, and enjoy the games.

13 of us at this point.

One bit of strategy. In the games original format, you cannot see an opponent's line-up until after. It does become a real strategy factor down the stretch. I encourage you all to use the e-mail or the board's Private Message function. I'll gladly take them right here in the post, but you are tipping your hand much more so than neccessary.

Side note: If e-mailing complete strangers is an issue, and I fully appreciate that stance, just know that while I may not have a written privacy policy,  :P , you ain't gonna run across very many people who value the "anomitity" factor of the web more than I. :step down from soap box:  ;D

That's what the post on page 2 about half way down is. Not much to look at but  I will be updating with "unofficial" scores shortly after each day's games. The stats service I use releases the stat file "the morning after" so an official score and such will be posted sometime fairly early each Monday. I'll do it here and have a page on the website?

Strickly out of curiosity {as I'll continue to update 'em regardless}, did any of you find the limited stats I posted on my site helpful in your research?

Hey guys. Experiencing some technical difficulties related to the web site. In short,  I can't get the pretty little spread sheet to show up correctly. Will let you know once there is something there worth looking at.

In the meantime, the "unofficial" results were correct, so those are the scores.

Once again, I'll get this figured out and update you when it's ready. Sorry for the delay.

Congrats Four, as well, for a job well done.

I also have a few little questions for whoever can answer them.

Is everyone here a part of the GBRFL or are there some people like me that just came here after Four posted a link at FFToday.com to here? I also see a bunch of other leagues down at the bottom of the message board, how exactly do you sign up for them? Are they money-leagues? Or free.

Hey, KJ 76!  Still waitin' for your scoring in your Playoff Prediction Contest... [smiley=annoyed.gif] ;)

Anyway, I guess I am the guy who should respond to this.  The long and short of your question...  I purchased the domain name "Fantasyfootballer.com" early in 2000 with the intention of eventually hosting a full-blown FF information site.  In the meantime, or maybe I should say to start out, I built a web site for the league I ran, the GBRFL.  That seemed like a reasonable first step given the amount of time I had to devote to this.  Opening "the Gridiron" this past August was my first REAL step toward slowly building this into a full-blown FF information web site.  So, by being here you are a part of something special, the wellspring of a new venture, an adventure.  Each and every one of you who have hung (in there) with me during the formative stages here is contributing in a very real way to the direction and development of this site.  Something you are not really doing anywhere else.  I am very open to ideas; I want to break new ground in the things we do, promote and pursue around here, and, most importantly, this is not about money for me.  There is a certain way I want to go about things, but I am very flexible.  To be quite frank, one of the (smaller) catalysts to the creation of "the Gridiron" was the degeneration of things over on the FFToday boards.  At any rate, to give you a glimpse into the future, by next season the index page, http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/, will immediately redirect visitors to "the Gridiron".  The GBRFL will take second stage while "the Gridiron" will be in the spotlight. :)

So, in specific answer to your question, no, not everybody here is in the GBRFL (or any of the "associated leagues").  You can actually see one's (associated) league affiliation by looking over to the left of the posts at the titles of the users.  As a matter of fact, to the GBRFLers this is really just an overblown spinoff on our old league trash-talkin' page.  As for the other leagues listed in the "Associated Leagues" section of the forum, they are part of a substantive network of leagues, known as the Fantasy Football League Alliance (FFLA), that has been forming since 1999.  In short, it is one of those innovative endeavors of mine that might somehow someday meld with "the Gridiron".  All of these leagues are well-established leagues with a quality internet presence.  More information on the leagues can be found by visiting:  http://www.geocities.com/naffliu/Partner.html (the QFL has yet to be added on that page).  As far as playing in those leagues, it would just be up to you to make contact on your own.  I would not hold my breath, though.  The attrition rates of the FFLA leagues are quite low.  That's why they are in the FFLA.  The only exception would be the CBFL which will just be a spinoff on OUR first mock draft for 2003 here on "the Gridiron".  Spots will be open to those who have contributed here the most (enthusiastically) up until that time, which I suspect will be in late May/early June.  For more information on the CBFL go to:  http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cbfl/.  If you are interested, start puckerin'! :-* ;D ;)

HOWEVER, ALSO WORTHY OF NOTE, "Gridiron" leagues will probably spring up around here during the off-season.  A thread has actually already been started regarding this:  http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cgi-bin/theGridiron/YaBB.cgi?board=56;action=display;num=1039551321.  If any leagues of these really take off nicely, I will probably be willing to provide boards for them here on "the Gridrion".  I would probably designate them as "Gridiron Leagues" or something like that. :D

Well, there you have it!  I hope I elucidated sufficiently. :P

Notice I said the Stegman.  Had I said "Ditto what Stegman said", then it would be incorrect.  I was playing off of the shortened nickname, Steg, that you use in your alias.  Or should your alias be StegeRock?

Just to let you know that there was no mistake in the spelling of your name.  Maybe next time I'll use STEGman or StegMan or even Steg Man so it's understood.   [smiley=hellyeafunny.gif] [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

One serious word of advise when visiting a freeservers site. Do NOT actually close the popups. If you just minimize them, the quantity is kept to a minimum. You'll still get two, sometimes three, but can then bounce around between pages with out new ones popping up.

I'm not sure, but I have ward at 82 yards recieving, 1 yard rushing for 83 points plus the two td's for another 120 to total 203. If there is a difference bewen my "hand" scoring and the stats I recieve Monday morning, it'll be changed. You do recall his -10 yard run early in the game? Maybe that is where we differ?

Week 2 and Cumulative are ready on the web site.

Just a quick note. The only correction to the Unofficial count is for the 3 of us who use Pennington, I'd missed his 3 yards rushing. That post will be changed to reflect the 3 additional points right away.

Quite a battle brewing! Keep up the good work!  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

edit here:
One other quick note  :P, there are a couple of ties at this point and I have NOT applied any tie breakers yet. Don't intend to until the finals.

I know Pak has been having very serious computer problems and I guess they finally caught up to him.  He is a personal friend of mine, but he would have had a difficult time getting through to me by phone before the games today as I was on-line a lot.

At any rate, his situation does beg an interesting question.  In the seemingly unlikely event that he wants to continue next week, would he be permitted to?  And, moreover, if he is, would he be permitted to use any player he has not used over just the first two weeks?  Could almost be considered strategy.  Forfeit your "Conference Championship Sunday" to have your pick of the litter "Super Bowl Sunday"! :o It would be rolling big dice (and probably be a big mistake), but I do not see why he shouldn't be permitted to continue thusly... in the unlikely event that he wants to.

Also, what about the idea I expressed on the "Offseason on 'the Gridiron'" thread on "the Sidelines" regarding playin' this sucker through the Pro Bowl?  What the hell!  It's all for fun anyway.  And, if we did so, we would be doing something unique, be giving some meaning to the heretofore meaningless Pro Bowl and, most importantly, be putting "the Gridiron" stamp on this contest.  Any thoughts... FourTwoOh... anybody?

At any rate, his situation does beg an interesting question.  In the seemingly unlikely event that he wants to continue next week, would he be permitted to?  And, moreover, if he is, would he be permitted to use any player he has not used over just the first two weeks?  Could almost be considered strategy.  Forfeit your "Conference Championship Sunday" to have your pick of the litter "Super Bowl Sunday"! :o It would be rolling big dice (and probably be a big mistake), but I do not see why he shouldn't be permitted to continue thusly... in the unlikely event that he wants to.

Also, what about the idea I expressed on the "Offseason on 'the Gridiron'" thread on "the Sidelines" regarding playin' this sucker through the Pro Bowl?  What the hell!  It's all for fun anyway.  And, if we did so, we would be doing something unique, be giving some meaning to the heretofore meaningless Pro Bowl and, most importantly, be putting "the Gridiron" stamp on this contest.  Any thoughts... FourTwoOh... anybody?


He's definetly still in. just takes zeros for the week which in my experience of playing this format is almost impossible to over  come. Almost impossible is a long ways away from impossible.

Regarding continuing on, I'll glady throw together another list. I don't see directly tying it in with this one, but a one and done shouuld be fun.

Very important information!

I'm not going to point out anybody's error if they duplicate a pick. Howevah! A couple of you have already chosen a super bowl player who has NEVAH! been on the list!  ;D

It would make sense that Tim Brown would have been an option, but I chose to go with the top two wide outs + tight end from each team. Hence, no Tim Brown.

FourTwoOh, this potentially even hurts me because it gives guys the "option" of putting in "another" different player than me or anybody else they are trying to surpass AND I have no intention of using Tim Brown, BUT I TOTALLY think Tim Brown should be available to be used.  To be honest, I never even looked at your original list.  Heck, if someone wants to choose a "lesser" player as according to the "regular" season, I say why not!  For that matter, Joe Jurevicius makes an intriguing play this week, and yet, I expect my lineup for "Super Bowl" week to be totally comprised of players from your list, so allowing this puts me in the greatest jeopardy by allowing guys to strategize according to my selections with more players available to them, i.e., obviously, since things are limited at this point, if I happen to or intentionally go with the same selections as RAYven_Lewis for example, I knock him out of contention (I am not going to as it stands right now), but putting more players in the pool gives him and everybody more "wiggle room."  Just my thoughts!  Do whatever!  You are doing a great job!

Maybe inside on the hardwood during the "refereed" IM tourneys, but OUTSIDE on the pavement...  We had it goin' on!  We owned those courts where we were able to play in front of the girlies walkin' by!
