Figured Id start a general discussion thread, instead of the draft thread all year.

About midway through Week (period) 1, and to NO ONES SURPRISE....Mulva is winning again.

Bryce was in 2nd (but he will take a 0 from Bradley Hayes, C, GTown not playing first 4 games of season)

I am in 3rd.

Clarification question because I dont recall from last year. Ivan Rabb didn't play this week. I dont have any forwards on my bench, but two in flex spots. Do I take a 0, or the lowest average from my bench?

I'm pretty sure you get a 0 since he's in a forward spot and you don't have any on your bench to replace him.

Yeah, unfortunately it's a 0.
Laley, I can't adjust the scoring on Fantrax to be weekly average, it only will do total points.

I click on "full fantasy team" and it will give the stats for the week thus far. That's what I'll use for the standings.

I'm at 28.21 per game this week, 1156.5 in 41 games.

Yeah, it's a 0. Unfortunately. It adds some strategy of keeping certain players in Flex versus G/F or C...

Well, he didn't start one (Antino Jackson), so I'd be fine if he drops him. We all missed it, but it should count as a move for the year. Please go in and make the move before next week begins.

The good news is, Fantrax allows you to sort by average for the scoring period, which makes the scoring easy. We just have to look for roster errors when someone doesn't play. I am able to make the change and put the eligible player in the lineup retroactively in the case of a stat correction, which makes the Fantrax page correct.

Azubuike24 - 29.17
Sportswizhurd - 28.51
Laley23 - 28.22
Mulva - 27.99 (Rabb did not play, 1 extra GP from Fantrax site)
Terry Tate - 27.96
Turkeylover12 - 26.44 (Timmer in for Clavell)
Bryce - 26.435 (Hayes did not play, 1 extra GP from Fantrax site)
Iliketurtles - 25.97 (Cleveland for Eddy-Norelia)
Goonx19 - 25.12 (Freeman for Daniel)

The Turkeylover and Bryce match-up literally as as close as we've ever had.

Also, please check your lineup for week 2. The rosters that got retroactively changed could also change this week. Let me know if anything needs to be altered.

It's saying I have an illegal roster with too many guards. I got rid of that Akron dude because I had too many wildcards... Is there a way you can remove a guard from my lineup for this period(Timmer plz) and have Dillon Brooks in my lineup. Otherwise it says that I won't score any points for the period =( I was driving for 12 hours Saturday and didn't look at anything.

I appreciate any help.

Potentially fucked this week. Started Briscoe in a flex. The worst player on my bench managed to play 8 minutes, go 0 for 1 from the field and have a turnover. Briscoe is out with a back injury, so if he doesn't play, that's going to kill my average having to throw that -1 in. Can't figure it's worse than a 0...

Similarly, OG tried to play versus FW, but had a stomach bug and couldn't go. 4.75 pts. Looks like he can go Sunday though, thankfully.

Reposting for Az to make change, since Tatum will probably be playing shortly.

I'm taking a 0 for the 2nd C spot rather than wasting a roster move on a Center averaging no more than 15.5 FPPG and only playing once.

My team took Laleys comment that no one is surprised you were winning week 1 as a sign of disrespect after last year so they came out guns a blazing this week.
