Been running the same league and format for about 6-7 years through NFL.com. 0.5PPR and no rule changes set from the default.
Like clockwork, every year at this time a few people will stop setting lineups or start selling to the 1st place team which takes away from a lot of the fun.
What changes have you made to your league to keep things interesting after the midway point to keep other managers from just giving up (outside of finding new people for the league)
Last 6 teams play in the secondary bracket with seeds 7 and 8 getting the bye. The winner get their buy in back. That way everyone has something to fight for. And as a 2-7 team with basically 1% chance of cracking the main playoff bracket, I truly appreciate this new rule. 3rd place still gets their money back, but gets an additional small pot to differentiate it from the lower bowl champ
Last playoff spot is the team with the most points that’s left.
Loser has to get a tattoo of the league’s choosing
