THE 2023 F.A.N.TASY FOOTBALL SEASON IS ABOUT TO BEGIN
LEAGUE INFO:
There will be 14 teams in the league, no more, no less. If a spot is forfeit for any reason (more on that in a moment), I will open a spot back up for another player to take over. So please, if you're going to join in, be certain you're in it for the long haul. Few things in the league suck as much as an inactive team.
The draft will be conducted in a snake-style draft. The draft order will be determined by a draft lottery that (assuming the league fills up at the pace it normally does) will take place on July 31st. The order will be reversed in even-numbered rounds. Example: If I got the 5th selection in the lottery, I'd have the 5th choice in the odd numbered rounds, but would have the 9th pick in even-numbered rounds. And yes, this does mean if you have the 1st pick or the 14th pick, you'll often be making two selections in a row, but in return you'll be waiting awhile before the draft comes back around to you.
The rosters will consist of 1 QB, 2 RBs, 2 WRs, 1 TE, 1 DEF, 1 Kicker, and one Flex position which can be used to play a 3rd RB, a 3rd WR, or 2nd TE on any given week. The flex position CANNOT be used for a QB, defense, or kicker. Defense can score more points than in a normal league, though not so much that defense becomes overvalued.
The schedule will consist of a 14 week regular season starting on Week 1; this means that everybody will play every other team one time during the regular season, and then one randomized rematch to compensate for the additional week in the NFL season
The top 8 teams will qualify for the playoffs, which will take place across weeks 15/16/17 (no games will be played Week 18, as many teams will opt to rest players and/or play backups). There will be losers brackets and the like through the playoffs, so even if you lose in week 15, you will still play on to decide your final ranking. Any teams KO'd from the playoffs will have their teams "locked", preventing them from letting players go or obtaining new players (to prevent meddling or collusion).
The only real grounds for being kicked from the league is collusion between two teams or just being an overall jerk (remember when I said "Few things in the league suck as much as an inactive team"?). If you are suspended from the forums during the league year (and suspension is unrelated to the league) or delete your account, you will be allowed to play out the season, though obviously entering next year might be an issue. if your suspension DOES have to do with the league, action will be taken; most likely, being locked out of your team and future league activity.
