I would be hopeful that if slackers are unhappy with not making the playoffs the rules will stay the same regardless of who they are. Halifax and Chaos always seem to follow league rules by the book so I would hope this is enforced.

I am not on the forum on a daily basis to monitor rule changes for a league during the season. The fact that there was a major rule change like that without PM's sent is crazy. Any major rule change should be done before the start of a season or atleast have some kind of vote. All that can be seen is that the guys seeded 1 and 2 made a rule change that gives them easier opponents. If you guys didn't like that then change the rule for GDL 11.

According to this post since I have sent messages to all the coaches I didn't play I should have 0 DNP, is this another phantom rule change too?

if that made any sense I would have a great response.

So it seems weird that because freydey didnt play 15 games he didn't make the playoffs,,, Makes sense to me... I'd love to get handouts like those...

Yeah, be went from playing me to playing Freydey, I sure bet he is happy.

This reeks of a first time gdl commish stacking the deck for himself to win. Since you guys will have people in the playoffs if they start whining why have a season, just let the same guys in the playoffs every year whether they earn it or not.

So then do away with DNP points and have it so if you don't play 50 games you are not able to play in playoffs. You are missing the point like always, Freydey goes from missing the playoffs to a 6 seed, how is this fair to anyone he is ahead of (seeds 7 and 8).

When you have a lot of DNP that means your points suffer.

I guess I am not one for making up league rules during the season without some kind of vote. All I know is that Freydey whined his way into the playoffs while I drop a seed to a more unfavorable matchup to me because of winning % and not the points that were earned. If those guys slack than too bad, if kingraph has to face a top player in the first round, oh well. Although Freydey is obviously a much better player than me he didn't earn his way into the playoffs because he didn play enough games. There has to be some accountability here. There are 16 teams that makes the playoffs and if you can't make the top 16 you didn't deserve to be in the playoffs, no matter who you are. Personally I think Freydey is a great player and one of the reasons I enjoy 2 on 2 so much. I just don't think a league should have to bend over for any player.

I really am stunned by this.... How I read this is... Kingraph doesn't want to play freydey in the first round so he found a way to manipulate the standings for his benefit. Seeds 5-8 determined by win % and not points, that's insane. There is no way that everyone could be onboard with this... Come on. Had I known this ahead of time I wouldn't have played my last 10 games or so and just kept the high winning % I had. No league can have the final 4 playoff seeds determined by some factor after the season is over (win %) when every season in the past is points (points minus DNP).

how are the standings calculated, this makes no sense.

Lol, make sure Seth puts that in his signature too...

I hope he plays a drama free / BS free season. No denying he is a quality player when he isn't pissing everybody off.

Wow, after reading this, there is no logical reason to bring him back.....

Although there are times when he gets so annoying that I have to block him I will give him credit for always being one of the guys who finishes his games. I wouldn't have any issues with him being allowed back knowing any B/S he causes would be an immediate boot from the league.

pidgin is what I use, nice and easy.... looks like we are almost full for blitz

apples and oranges.... blitz is king

Having Detroit defenetly makes a difference... I'd be curious to see that too.

if zalex doesn't come back can i call dibs on the chicago team but with my current roster

of course i am in

yeah, that looks like a great cover. nice work.

Wow. I am stunned with the team that won in A. Big props to freydey. Any way to combo Blake and Coffey as they were probably the ones that carried the team to winning....

maybe allowing people to play in both the 20 and 40 game leagues if they wanted to try out different teams or different difficulty levels.

i'll try to sign on sunday morning.
