Eliminate him from contention entirely, which would slide Edible into 4th place. If the team as he had left it had made the play-offs, I would have laughed at the absurdity of it but allowed it. Since some changes have been made, even from his own roster, it's not the same team as he left it. Or let's just go the NCAA route and declare him ineligible for post-season play.

This I can't do. I asked around at the time of my changing his roster in his match against me and received no objection to it. I'm not going to go back on that now.

The note's been there since November 22nd - you had a long time before this weekend to speak up about it if this was going to be your opinion.

Edit: Give me a couple of hours, I have another idea.

Kilgamayan · « **Reply #482 on:** December 11, 2012, 03:13:51 PM »

Okay so here's the deal.

I ran the numbers the morning, and even after resetting Kerigis' roster for this week, he would still win (he'd lose less than 15 points). I also know that resetting his roster for his game against me three weeks ago would not make him lose that matchup any less.

I'm not flat-out invalidating his team because it was publicized three weeks ago that I would be doing this (Vic even responded to the post so I guess he just forgot or something?) and all three people that went up against his team have now, at one point or another, expressed a distinct lack of disapproval for the changes.

However, I did also say that I would reset his roster after my match with him, and that did not happen. I can't run the numbers now but I'm 99% sure Edible wins Week 13 if Kerigis's roster is reset. This would change the 4th place team from Kerigis to Edible.

The question is then this: Do we want to reset Kerigis's roster for that one matchup?

I will take votes in-thread or in private until tomorrow at 12:30 US Eastern and make a decision then.

Also, a bonus question for Vic: Should Kerigis remain in the playoffs, do you want his roster reset?

In fairness, I would like to offer one correction to Kilga's post. He did ask if I wanted the roster reset for my match against Kerigis last week, and I declined. That loss was entirely on me - I had players on my bench that would've enabled me to win.

Leave as is.

I didn't forget; I was the first one to bring it up again due to the play-off implications. I didn't say anything at the initial time because a) I had already lost to his original line-up, which was missing three players during the match, something I've brought up twice and b) I wasn't bothering to think about the possible play-off implications it could have. I didn't think about those at all until the final week (when there were 4 teams at 7-6 and it became much easier to predict the final 4).

I like college football so I have to live with the realty of a general post-season ban being dealt at some point by the NCAA, invalidating all work gone into a season. Ohio State this year went 12-0 and didn't even go to the B1G championship game, so the post-season ban seemed the most logical for an abandoned team.

The original roster has 2 out players so I'd say leave it like it is. It's my match and it'd be unfair for me to request an easier match-up. I'd prefer no one pick up his team though and just let it ride as-is til the end.

And thus, the auto draft team proceeds to exceed all expectations and breeze through the playoffs to win the first Fantasy League of MotK. When asked for comments on his victory, Kerigis shall respond, "Wait, I was part of this?"

That's all I have left to root for at this point. :V

GG Kilga, I still can't believe I ran off than many wins. Dez tricked me! I thought he wasn't going to play for sure but it wouldn't have mattered if I kept him. Please beat Kerigis!

Oh god, I might actually win this week

At least all playoff controversy can be dispelled thanks to Edible's team shitting the bed this week. <_<

Edible · « **Reply #493 on:** December 17, 2012, 03:41:30 PM »

Hahaha, ain't that the truth.

I'm in the finals of my money league at least. Go team!

But if I'd played Edible I would have already won. As it stands I have to pull for the Jets to have a monster game, and I don't think I'll ever recover from that trauma D:

Hey Kilga, we finally get a rematch.

Kilgamayan · « **Reply #496 on:** December 18, 2012, 04:55:17 PM »

Man, Gronk better return this week. I don't want to have to choose between Dallas Clark and Dwayne Allen in a finals matchup. >_>

yuyukos · « **Reply #497 on:** December 18, 2012, 05:15:52 PM »

First world problems here. In a money league i'm participating in, do I bench Adrian Peterson going against the Houston DEF this week, which is also on my roster? My RB1 is Foster and my other options at RB are Darren ~~PPRGod~~ Sproles and David Wilson, before looking at waivers.

Betting against AP has been a bad idea all year. It will continue to be a bad idea against Houston.

PX · « **Reply #500 on:** December 18, 2012, 09:51:45 PM »

AP is aiming to break a record, and he's the only semblance of reliable offense on the team, AND they're playing for a playoff spot And at this point, Houstan doesn't need to play anymore. Why bench him?

Zirene · « **Reply #501 on:** December 18, 2012, 11:24:05 PM »

I'm so glad the active players made the finals. Congrats Kilga and Vic! Hopefully I can beat Kerigis for the podium finish and have the top 3 be active players. I was shooting for not last in week 7 so I'm very happy with how my team went. Cam Newton exploded the second half of the season and I couldn't have done it without him. I think the picking 2 QBs first in this league worked pretty well.

Honestly 9/10 participation is pretty damn good for the first MotK league.

Man you have a lot of solid RBs. AP for sure, he is a monster and is having a great season, especially considering coming off of that ACL injury. Yes Houston's defense is good but AP will get his touches and his yards regardless of who's defense it is.

If you really don't want to play him Sproles is a safe bet but the Saints have a lot of RBs so it is a risk, but hes the best of their RBs for fantasy.

Kilgamayan · « **Reply #503 on:** December 19, 2012, 02:20:12 PM »

Houston's defense was good but it's been ravaged by injuries. Peterson is the safest play in all of fantasy sports outside of possibly Kevin Durant; don't bench him for any reason.

Rin Kagamine · « **Reply #504 on:** December 19, 2012, 04:41:07 PM »

Kilga I wanted Dez Bryant, now I have to play a 2 TE set :<

Edible · « **Reply #505 on:** December 19, 2012, 04:55:37 PM »

I saw that Vic had #5 and Kilga had #4 and knew exactly who they both were going to take

Kilgamayan · « **Reply #506 on:** December 19, 2012, 05:22:27 PM »

I may play Stevie anyway just to be sporting, since that kind of waiver wire talent swing for a championship match is kinda lame.

I just wanted to make sure Vic didn't get him. <_<

EDIT: Incidentally, this exact sort of situation is the reason I stopped using waiver claims however many weeks ago.

Rin Kagamine · « **Reply #507 on:** December 19, 2012, 05:32:06 PM »

Playing the long game I see

I picked up 3 other guys from waivers, so it all worked out I guess.

Gronk stay on the bench, you need that arm to be 100% for the post-season, don't risk breaking it against the Jags!
