87 sats \ 18 replies \ @grayruby 29 Jan \ on: For next years fantasy football league Stacker_Sports
We talked about doing a dynasty league but thought we should see how it goes the first year. I think it is a good point about adding new teams. I am not against having multiple leagues going with different formats.
This is @Public_N_M_E's show so I won't steal his thunder. I am good with however he wants to coordinate it.,
FYI @SirStacksalot is @StillStackinAfterAllTheseYears on SN.
I like the idea of ultimately having a ~stacker_sports dynasty league going, but I don't think we have the critical mass of interested parties yet.

Before converting to a dynasty (and I agree a dynasty for stacker sports would be awesome! And was the original idea.) I think we want to utilise traditional formats to generate more interested parties and then move to dynasty.
reply
How many do you think we need? 8?
reply
If there's a good way to add and subtract teams each season, I think we could start with 6.

I have ideas, but nothing solid yet. Effectively you could use 2 leagues. A redraft and a dynasty, the winner of the redraft gets to take over the team that lost the dynasty. I'm just concerned about how long it can realistically take to get a bad team good, but it forces the manager to make good trades and find good free agents.
I'm all for expanding the main league with the vision to move to a dynasty format once we've drummed up loads of interest.
You could also just run two redraft leagues and have a winner promoted to league 1 loser demoted to league 2 thing with redraft aswell... Really depends on what people really want.

6 shouldn't be too hard to arrange. I don't want to give Pub too much work though. If we have a dynasty league I think it would have to be separate from the regular league.

I enjoy doing them to be honest. I think I do have a threshold in which I'd begin looking at taking a cut of the buyins as "admin fees" but it wouldn't be much, kinda just beer money if I'd have to throw down several hours a week on admin.
Id look to get closer to 12-14 teams in play before thinking about converting to a dynasty format. And then if more teams want to join the dynasty that would be via promotion from a secondary league.

Running contests, pools, leagues is work. I am not against a bit of an admin fee. I am also in favour of doing what I did in December this past year and giving you guys that are putting in a lot of effort running contests/pools/leagues a bit of a profit sharing bonus. Assuming the territory stays on track as reasonably profitable. Last year @Undisciplined got a big chunk of the bonus sats but since he is an equity partner now, he will receive monthly revenue sharing which should leave more sats for you guys at the end of the year.
@Undisciplined and I will discuss. I think it is reasonable to set aside some of the territory profit for reinvestment and for profit sharing for those making big contributions.
