Draft Time and Rule Changes Votes 2019


The polls are officially closed! Here are the details you need to know:

Top line important details:


Draft Date/Time

Draft date is set for Monday, August 26th at 8:00 PM. This was the only date that everyone who responded to the poll was available for. Hopefully everyone is free that evening, and if not, try to let me know in the poll next time.

I adjusted the time a little to help people (like me and Colton) who have young kids to get to bed in the evening.

Draft Order

  1. Barbara
  2. Reese
  3. Steven
  4. ???
  5. Brian
  6. Greg
  7. Colton
  8. Michael P
  9. Zane
  10. Michael T
And here's our randomized draft order. Nick has decided not to join us this year so I'm working on a replacement, which explains the ??? in the 4th position.

Rule Changes


Votes for rule changes are in and very little has changed. Is this a bad thing? No, I really don't think so. What we've learned is that either A) I'm bad at suggesting new ideas or B) people are pretty happy with the way things are. I'm going to choose to believe it's B.

Because we had lower vote totals I exercised some judgement on what to do with these.

1. Cash Buy In/Payout : 4 votes for | 1 vote against. FAILED

While a majority of voters would like to play for a small amount of money, it's also a minority of players in the league. To me, it doesn't feel right to make everyone pay up under those circumstances.

2. Move to Sleeper.app: 4 votes for. PASSED

No one who voted was against this change, and it doesn't require me to ask for money, so it passes. Follow this link to join our new league: https://sleeper.app/i/L4lo7YamV3dw

3. Replacing Kickers with 2nd Flex Position: 1 vote for | 2 votes against. FAILED

This topic didn't inspire a lot of voting. 2 of our 5 voters abstained, only 1 person we in favor.

4. Adding Keepers. 1 vote for | 4 votes against. FAILED

This is the rule change people were most vocal about, and people mostly did not like it.
