Divisions don’t look final yet, it’s currently divisions of 5/4/3. We’ll see how things get shifted. (Not sure if what’s currently listed is arbitrary or what’s up with it…don’t remember how we’ve been choosing them in the past.)

Everything will get setup when I get to a desktop. Divisions will just be death voodoo and miths envy for tradition and stuff
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

If you want to be in a specific division then we can do that.

I have no preference what division I am in. You can randomize those

And or you can try to balance them in terms of equally distributing Old L1 teams with New L1 teams among them. Not sure if its possible to have like 2 old and 2 new in each division, but if it is I think that would be cool. I forget how many old and new teams we have, so no idea if that can be done fairly.

I think only time I had a division preference was when Wraith was still around. It was fun having him in my division every year as a rival since he was a Pitt fan and I am a browns fan. I really wish an all AFC North Fan division of DDP (Bengals), T-Bone (Ravens), Me (Browns), Wraith (Pitt) had happened one year. Sadly it never did though.

Yeah we do need answers for the poll, we’ve been hounding you about it for weeks. You say there’s a way to get back in to see results, but there’s not unless you either fill out the survey again or saved the completion URL, which I doubt anyone has done.

I'd argue that it was never "shitty" and that ppr doesn't add much. Also I don't think ppl have been asking for fill ppr? At any rate .5 ppr is winning 11-7

It'll be 6 or slots

Faab is losing

We are keeping kickers

Allowing draft pick trades

Adding a flex

The one about ranged fgs is losing by a point

Adding an extra bench slot is also losing by a point.

There's still 7 ppl that haven't done this so.

Can we pick a specific date and time (ideally very soon because it impacts draft strategy) at which these will be finalized, and can you show us exact numbers for everything? Because PJ showed me the IR slot question and apparently not just did six IR slots not win, not a single person asked for that number.

there are at least 5 people in league 1 who have asked for full ppr.

I'm fine with whatever personally. I'd be happy to back full PPR if there's interest. (My other league effectively plays as something between 1.2PPR and 2PPR so as long as we don't go that far I'm not gonna complain.)

I am fairly certain that the reason that we voted on .5 ppr instead of full ppr is bc that was the agreed upon compromise. Not even everyone wants .5 ppr and we have like 20ish ppl a year and the whims of a few shouldn't be forced on all of the rest.

Okay, but the point of having a vote is to find if there is a majority that do want it. Mostly my disappointment is that it wasn't even an option to vote for when people expressed interest in having it.

I mean, all the data is kinda going to suck because of the lack of an "I'm indifferent on this item" option on every question on the poll.

That's probably accurate. I was just shocked that full ppr wasn't even a menu item when shit I've never heard of or seen people mention was on the list
