2017 Forum H2H League & Pigeon Cup

If we did 3 divisions: High priced, Entry Priced and Free. What would you like to pay?

  • $100 - high priced

  • $75 - high priced

  • $50 - high priced

  • $25 - entry priced

  • $20 - entry priced

  • Free - lower division


Results are only viewable after voting.
So, how are we dividing the winnings?
I know you fixed it but the evidence remains.

Simple enough:

Total Pot = $1,200 (16*$75)
League Winner gets $600
Top Cup finish among $$ pot contributors gets $300*
League Second Place gets $200
League Third Place gets $100

* If somehow no money league contributor makes the Cup semis, then the $300 is distributed evenly among 1, 2, and 3 in the league ($700, $300, $200). I can't see giving somebody $300 for finishing 5th.

Good as gold. 16 players and fresh slate. Don't forget to set your lineup!
You're not manually inputting our week 1 lineups and scores? What kind of commissioner are you?

:rolleyes:

You're a little late on that joke. JayH made it yesterday. I think the sarc level went up a notch in the league this season. Better be on your toes!

You're saying the supporters shield is more valuable than MLS Cup? Nope.

We're using the Euro model. Think Premier League title and FA Cup. The cup is not a playoff for the top teams, we have no playoffs. It's a competition that occurs simultaneously with our regular season. It's actually great for fantasy, since it give the bottom table teams something to play for late in the season, even if they have no real chance at a top spot.

Or it could even be MLS model. I think most people would prefer MLS Cup over US Open Cup.

Okay, let me try and figure this out. We're on the Euro Model (English). The top three winners of the Premier League get money. But we also have a simulantelous have an FA Cup going on.

So how will the bracketing for the Cup work over the course of the season? Does someone make a bracket on paper and the person with the higher score that matchup moves on (even though they aren't actually playing each other H2H because that's a Premier League game)?

That's correct. This is what it looked like last year. I'll have to adjust it this year with 16 teams and an additional league.

I'll announce the schedule some time in the next couple of weeks when I figure it all out.

So the Cup is actually like Champions League with groups and then a tournament?

Or since we have 16 teams now will it just be a straight tournament? Home and away legs until the final? Single match for all?
