In the main league I play in we have been discussing switching the way we do our weekly wins and losses. I'm not sure if any of the fantasy platforms have the capability to do this yet but I have heard some in the fantasy industry say the commissioner can manually do it.

 

So essentially each team has the opportunity to get 2 points (wins) each week. If you win your head to head match up during the week you get a point. If your total points scored for the week is in the top half of the league you get a point.

 

For example if it is a 12 team league and I win my match up and am in the top 6 in total points scored for the week I will go 2-0 on the week. This compensates for those brutal weeks where your team scores 140 but your opponent scores 142 and punishes those teams who win a week 77-75.

 

Example:

 

Team 1 (140) vs Team 2 (142)

Team 3 (110) vs Team 4 (87)

Team 5 (88) vs Team 6 (95)

Team 7 (113) vs Team 8 (101)

Team 9 (77) vs Team 10 (75)

Team 11 (121) vs Team 12 (120)

 

On the week each team record is as follows:

Team 1: 1-1

Team 2: 2-0

Team 3: 2-0

Team 4: 0-2

Team 5: 0-2

Team 6: 1-1

Team 7: 2-0

Team 8: 0-2

Team 9: 1-1

Team 10: 0-2

Team 11: 2-0

Team 12: 1-1

 

Does anybody else do this? Hopefully my explanation was clear enough.

 

This is the first I had the idea. And I love it.

I saw it not even out one season. The guy with the most points in the league failed to make the playoffs due to his record.

We at least pay back the team with the most points their entry fee. The big money is still based on records and the super bowl winner.
