***Geek Club Playoff Game 2012***

[ZeroTolerance 584]

2007 champ: GettnHuge

2008 champ: the card says moops

2009 champ: funngun

2010 champ: Chronic Husker

2011 champ: ZeroTolerance

 

Each entrant must fill out a roster of 2 QBs, 2 RBs, 2 WRs, 2 TEs, 2 Ks, & 2 D/STs using one player maximum from each of the 12 playoff teams (you cannot pick 2 players from, for example, the Packers). You will carry that roster for the entire playoffs with the total points accumulated deciding the winner.

 

With that in mind, the strategy is to select players whose team you expect to advance farthest in the playoffs (thus playing more games and having more opportunities to score fantasy points) at the positions which traditionally produce the highest scores (i.e. you probably wouldn't want to select a RB from a team you expect to be eliminated after one game).

 

The scoring system will be as follows:

 

1 pt per 25 yds passing

1 pt per 10 yds rushing

1 pt per 10 yds recieving

4 pts per passing TD

6 pts per rushing TD

6 pts per recieving TD

2 pts per two-pt conversion (passing/rushing/recieving)

-2 pts per INT

-2 pts per fumble lost

 

1 pt per XP

3 pts per FG up to 39 yds

4 pts per FG of 40-49 yds

5 pts per FG of 50+ yds

 

6 pts per D/ST TD

1 pt per sack

2 pts per INT

2 pts per fumble recovery

2 pts per safety

-2 pts per D/ST fumble lost

8 pts for total points allowed 0-6

6 pts for total points allowed 7-13

4 pts for total points allowed 14-20

2 pts for total points allowed 21-27

 

- Points will be counted after each individual game (i.e. if Gore rushes for 87 yds in the division playoffs and 103 yds in the NFC Championship, he will receive 8 pts and 10 pts, not 19 pts for the combined 190 yds)

- Touchdowns scored on special teams or defense will be awarded to that D/ST unit, not to individual players.

 

Each entry must select one of it's players to act as a tiebreaker. If two or more teams are tied, final standings will be determined by the highest scoring tiebreaker player (total points scored by that player for the playoffs) on the tied entries.

 

Submit your roster to this thread in the following format (example of a roster from last season):

 

QB - Drew Brees, Saints

QB - Tom Brady, Pats

RB - Ray Rice, Ravens

RB - Michael Turner, Falcons

WR - Mike Wallace, Steelers

WR - DeSean Jackson, Eagles

TE - Jacob Tamme, Colts

TE - Greg Olsen, Bears

K - Olindo Mare, Seahawks

K - Ryan Succoup, Chiefs

Def - Green Bay

Def - Jets

*Make sure to highlight the player you have selected as your tiebreaker (use bold, italics, arrows, hell you can use bananas for all I care as long as it is noticeable)

 

If you wish to change your roster after entering it, do not edit your original entry post, simply make a new reply pointing out that you wish to change your entry and what lineup you wish to submit in its place. All entries will be recorded at the kickoff of the first Wild Card game, Saturday, Jan 7th to prevent edits.

Shiot, I saw your ETA and looked at Volty's... our position players are all the same, only K and DEF are different. I hear those Chinamen have the real smartz, so I'm liking my odds.

what is two posters select the exact same team?

Hence the importance of marking your tie-breaker. If two teams select the same team AND the same tie-breaker (hasn't happened yet but it's possible) then I think the only logical additional tie-breaker would be to give the win to the poster who set their lineup first.
