Didn’t you used to complain about Fantrax (before quitting bc your team was awful)?

Have you used in since or are you just taking it as gospel when King and crew say it’s better

 

When I quit, I was young and naive. Also, this was before Yahoo shoved DFS in my face all the time. Also, this was before another 4 years of them improving nothing about the platform.

 

I've gone to Fantrax and it sure does look a lot better than it used to. More than that, they seem pretty committed to improving the customer experience, with fantastic support that responds in minutes and constant feature additions.

 

It's kinda like getting in at the ground level of an investment that's about to take off.

I dropped that piece of s*** Vazquez. He’ll never play again nor should he. The only good pedophile is a dead one

Congrats to 2-time BORED champ L54.

 

I’ve now finished 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th. I can’t close the deal :(

Everyone has until Friday to pick up whatever trash they want on the waiver wire.

 

I'll start adding rosters to the spreadsheet this weekend. I'm sure all of the remainers (Dinger, L54, connorp) will happily pitch in and help with the transfer. Please PM me your e-mails and I'll grant you sheet access. The four of us can do 5 teams each.

Also, trading season is open.

 

I'm interested in dumpster diving for a crusty old top-400 1B or OF who has 1-2 years of fantasy relevance remaining

The bitterness is thick here

Congrats L54, you da man!

 

Thanks Spanky. It feels good to be back on top

 

As the Champion, YEXIT IS SQUASHED!

So no Yexit in BORED? For sure?

 

Not 100% sure yet. BORED is a more vulnerable league than the DDL, and I don't want to lose good members.

 

On the other hand, I'm very tired of running the league off a spreadsheet, and I don't think any of the issues with Fantrax come close to outweighing the benefit of eliminating all of the manual processing required if we remain in Yahoo.

 

I'm increasingly loathe to cater to the wants of the remainers who won't help out with the administrative burden that their vote requires.

We’ve decided that BORED is going to be moving to Fantrax for the 2020 season. All of you should register for Fantrax ASAP, and I’ll send you an invite when the 2020 Fantrax season opens in early October. Some other notes on the transition:

 

1. The onus will be on you to add your own players in Fantrax after you’ve joined. Pick up every player that’s currently on your Yahoo roster and that you want to keep through the offseason, as well as all prospects on your MiLB roster on the sheet. Prospects should be added to your farm in Fantrax.

 

2. There’s going to be a trade freeze effective now, and lasting until a) I’ve transferred 2020 MiLB picks to Fantrax, and B) you add your roster to Fantrax. I expect that a) will be complete very shortly after the season is open, so you’ll effectively be able to trade as soon as your rosters are up to date.

 

3. This year’s waiver draft will proceed as it always has, with the picks currently being tracked on the sheet. Waiver picks are the only piece that can’t be tracked in Fantrax, so we’ll vote as a league on how to proceed in 2021 and beyond.

 

4. No adds will be possible during the offseason, as has always been the case. Owners will be prevented from making adds after owners have added their players.

 

5. Everything else will proceed as usual, with one exception: there will be same-day adds/drops. In Yahoo, when you add or drop a player it doesn’t take effect until 3am on the following day. In Fantrax, adds/drops will take effect immediately.

 

6. I want to institute a firm rule change policy, because we’ll have a lot more flexibility now that we’re in Fantrax, and people will want to propose changes as they get familiar with the site. In LoD rule changes are proposed via Fantrax poll and passed with 66% approval. I’m proposing that any changes made to our rules require support from at least 12 owners. We’ll be voting on the new waiver system at some point in the near future, but no changes will be on the table for the 2020 season.

 

Feel free to comment/make suggestions on the implementation I’ve outlined, but the move is happening. The league isn’t going to be run off a spreadsheet anymore.

I propose you keep the spreadsheet (along with a rosters tab) up to date. Just incase Fantrax ever goes down.

Disappointing. BTS was the voice of reason around here and all about fairness. But let himself get manipulated by King and crew.

 

I’ll give a shot and see if Fantrax doesn’t suck ass still. It’ll be all about the app for me

The app is new, about a year or two ago it was updated. Shaddup Baldilocks!
