    I can't believe we are moving to ppr. We already have a ppr league.
    This shouldn't have even been up for discussion.
    It was started as a standard scoring league and should be left as such. People looking for angles where they feel they might be better is what's going on here.
    It's easy to set up a new ppr league, a boards one with divisions. Why was there even a discussion on the scoring format?
    This league has been going a long time. Gotta have a bit of respect for those who set it up.

    Didn’t even know there was a vote and I think I posted in this thread. Ha

    Shame that PPR is in (and it’s my preferred format - just liked this one being different)

    The way this league works is decided by the users, if the majority want to change then we will change.

    It's a bit late to be saying this shouldn't have been up for discussion now. This thread has been open since November, giving everyone a chance to have their say and make their arguments etc.

    I've been saying it all along. Where was the poll? Who said we were having a vote on it?

    You were one of the people that voted, you were also one of the people to suggest an item to be voted on.

    Can we have a vote on n changing the waiver wire?
    I feel it should be reset every week to worst gets first.
    It's very unfair that a guy who gets no injuries can stay on top until a juicy player comes on the waiver wire. It's just helping those who are having a good season to get even better.
    If you were unlucky enough to lose two early picks to injury early on your season is basically over. If it reset you'd have a chance to get competitive again.

    You mean for next season or for this season?

    I think it's too late for this season personally, We had a thread open for 6 months for suggestions on rule changes and this wasn't mentioned. Furthermore we voted on this in 2018, when the results were as follows:

    Move to Free agent Budget - 12.68%
    Move to bottom of the list after you pick - 59.15%
    Order should reset every week - 28.17%

    Has opinions changed that much in the 2 seasons since?

    Way too late for any more votes IMO

    Should only be done at the end of the season and once it hits August, every thing should be final

    I think all.these other changes like flex and now ppr would affect it greatly.
