20-team Yahoo league ~ Looking for owners
Posted: Thu Oct 18, 2012 1:54 am
Hi all. Let's do it!
Looking for another 10 owners or so. The league is publicly viewable, so be sure to drop in for a preview. Thanks!
The league has a few differences from the norm:
1) Head-to-Head – One Win. Weekly matchup against other manager’s in the league, resulting in one win or one loss, rather than a win / loss for each stat category.
2) Roster positions. Only five positions, PG, SG, SF, F, C. And lots of bench players – 20.
3) Maximum amount of stat categories – 15. (Yahoo allows 15 stat categories maximum, out of 25 or so.) Includes wild card categories of Times Fouled Out, Technical Fouls, and Ejections.
4) Waiver rules. All players are considered on Waivers rather than as Free Agents. Managers must make blind bids to pick up players on Waivers. Managers start with $100 of bid money, with this amount increasing weekly by another $100. Dropped players are not available for pick up for 7 days. Bids on Wavered players are processed daily. So, after a day’s Wavers are cleared, a manager may only pick up a player if A) that player has been on Wavers for 7 days, and B) if the manager has won the bidding for that player.

League Name: Pooecetes Faustus Pseudotsuga
Draft Type: Autopick Draft
Max Teams: 20
League Anthem: "NBA Live 95 Soundtrack - Intro Music." (youtube[dot]com/watch?v=G8bj2qE5KnA)
Scoring Type: Head-to-Head - One Win. Like in the standard Head-to-Head format, each team will square off in a weekly matchup against another manager's team to see who can compile the best stats across a number of different categories. Each stat category counts as one "point," and the team with the most stat category wins at the end of the week receives a win while their opponent will get a loss.
Roster Positions: PG, SG, SF, PF, C, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN, BN
Players Stat Categories: Minutes Played (MIN), Field Goals Made (FGM), Free Throws Made (FTM), 3-point Shots Made (3PTM), Points Scored (PTS), Total Rebounds (REB), Assists (AST), Steals (ST), Blocked Shots (BLK), Turnovers (TO), Assist/Turnover Ratio (A/T), Personal Fouls (PF), Times Fouled Out (DISQ), Technical Fouls (TECH), Ejections (EJCT)
Waiver Mode: Continuous. Continuous means that all unowned players are on waivers at all times. Waiver claims are processed on fixed days of the week as defined by the commissioner. When a player is dropped, he must remain on waivers for a set number of days before he can be claimed; that number of days is indicated by the Waiver Time setting.
Waiver Time: 7 days
Waiver Type: FAAB w/ Continual rolling list tiebreak. In a Free Agents Acquisition Budgets (FAAB) waivers system, each manager receives a dollar amount to place blind bids on waived players. The manager with the highest bid at the end of the waiver period claims that player, and that bid amount is deducted from the team's acquisition budget.
Waivers Processed: Daily
Trade Review: League Votes
Post Draft Players: Follow Waiver Rules
Initial FAAB Budget Amount: $100
Weekly FAAB Budget Allotment: $100. Each team's FAAB budget amount increases by $100 per week.
