I do agree that with 12 team leagues it makes it more engaging because it is a closer race. With 14, if you fall behind due to an injury, you are finished and lose interest.

If we have fewer than 48 participants, we shrink the chinese league, and if we have more, we increase leagues to 13, or at least some of them. How does that sound?

You can add me into the returning players as well.

I'm fine with any league size. 13 sounds about right tho. Just wanna know where I'm picking at so I can come up with some resemblance of a game plan.

There was no formal arrangement or decision made on shrinking the Premier League. That being said, I still prefer a 14 team league, but if a decision is made to shrink the league to 12 teams, then so be it.

I vote on the number of Premier League spots required to keep me from being relegated!

Seriously though (pretty sure I scraped through as safe anyway) I'm not fussed. I guess if you held a gun to my head I'd say 12 over 14.

I am in and I like my leagues deep. The RealGM Western Conference league last year was 16 deep and I thought that was a good challenge.

I'm interested in some Ffootball also.

For basketball, I vote for 14 team Premier league, and 12 team everything else.

I'm in again. China league. Hopefully a less horrible season.

Post #73 » by **TASTIC** » Sun Aug 9, 2015 3:57 pm

I prefer 14 but am fine with 12 teams, either or.

Kerrsed - why don't we just get the commish from each league to do a different league using toolbox random generator? Save you having to do a silly video for a fantasy league because people don't believe you!

http://fftoolbox.scout.com/draft_order_generator.cfm

So Prem League commish does D-League draft order, D-League does China's and then China does Prem League's?

That works for me, as i was going to use that site anyways. I still have a feeling that people will doubt the process and thing the Commish's are in cahoots with each other though, lol.

I'm in for roto and H2H again. I think I was 3rd in roto and 2nd (?) in H2H. I like 12/13 team leagues, but if there are enough people for 14 that works too.

aIvin adams · Post #76 » by **aIvin adams** » Mon Aug 10, 2015 5:49 am

i wanna do roto again. i was sumdumfuk last yr but promoted. so that league needs a new commish.

i can screen shot the final standings tmrw whenever i get time (ie whenever im bored with work) if anyone from the chinese league forgets how we finished

I like this idea; seems to make the most sense.

If you guys need an extra I'll play fantasy football. If it fills up no worries, in a handful of leagues already.

Guess I'll be dropped down to the china league lol.

I want to sign up for next season, want to climb up again lol.

Voting for 4 leagues, 12 players each, according to bwgood's suggestion.

New league (euroleague) should be filled with last year's Chinese league + demotions. New chinese league should be of new players and, if not enough, demote worse last year's chinese players til we get enough to fill the new league, too.

I guess if we have five being demoted from Premier, and three moving up from D to premier, that means only two would need to be demoted from D to Euro. UNLESS we demote three from D, and move the winner of China all the way up to the D league. This might make more sense to give the winner of China more of a reward, especially since the bottom three od the D league were probably expecting relegation anyway.

So two or three demotions from D to Euro, and the top 9 or 10 of China would go to Euro.

Then the bottom four or five of China stay there with the new players (currently 5). This means we need two or three newcomers to get the China league to 12. But it could be smaller as well.

This is assuming everyone who played last year plays again.
