    chrisjent, you really should apologize for what your team did to PSJ. That was ugly.

    But keep starting 5 pitchers every game.:p

    Should do the footy draft lottery, Smeg. Will make it easier to plan for the draft knowing where we pick (even if it is a month away). :cool:

    Football is mine this year, baby. I'm on a mission.

    OBLIGATORY MENTION OF 2000TH POST:

    Just wanted to throw it in somewhere, and I didn't want to bother starting a new thread.

    Figured most of you guys remember when 2000 meant something.

    ;)

    Hell, I'm approaching 10,000 and feel like no one would care anymore.

    Behad-
    I've been falling down on my research. PSJ had five starters in his lineup so I assumed they would all pitch. It turned out only three were scheduled to start. I matched his five with my five. Bad move on my part (I also shouldn't be skunking PSJ too bad, he could come back hard in football and return the favor). :)

    Updated the games used tally on the front page. Also changed Zack Greinke's position to SP.

    I don't think my total is correct. I totaled them in a spreadsheet, came up with 74 SP 62 RP, checked them again, then compared that with what is on my lineup page and they match.

    My starters games are correct, but relief games used should be 65 instead of 69.

    I went back and checked over all of your games and found out that an incorrect total was entered for week 6. After going through the Fanstar auto-emails from that period, I managed to confirm that the lineup you entered way back in April is in fact the lineup currently displayed on the week 6 result page. I also discovered that week 6 was one of the game periods in which Fanstar was producing really bad errors (ie: reverting to the previous week's scores, changing the wrong week's lineup, etc..). This was likely the root of the problem, since I generally double and sometimes triple check my addition.

    Thanks for catching the mistake. I went ahead and rechecked all of the week 6 totals for each team and everyone else's is correct.



    I re-checked all of your RP totals and the correct amount is 69 games used through week 25.

    Here is my count, week by week:

    3, 2, 2, 4, 2, 2, 4, 1, 2, 4, 1, 1, 4, 1, 4, 5, 3, 5, 3, 4, 3, 1, 2, 3, 3

    = 69


    If anyone else finds a discrepancy in the games used numbers, please list your week by week totals like I did above so I can check them against my own numbers.

    Ok your right, I had 1 game for Julio instead of 3 in week 10 and missed Koch's 2 games in week 13.

    Thanks fade. Once again let me say that you are doing an outstanding job managing the league. I'm sure everyone appreciates all of your efforts.

    Man the lineups may be screwed up again. I submitted a lineup this morning about 10 cst. I look at my team tonight and I got guys listed that I did not submit. and yes I checked it when I submitted it. It looks right on the lineups page but not on the actual game page. I know I submitted it in time because I was eating breakfast when I did it. I always eat breakfast before noon!

    Nothing wrong with the lineups. You just missed the deadline. I have a record of your submission, so I'll change it.

    When submitting lineups on the day that the game period starts, you should always check the matchup screen immediately after setting your lineup. If it has already switched over (as was the case this time) just let me know and I'll enter it myself, as long as the lineup was set before gametime.

    Same thing happened to me, but I'm not sure if my substitution was before the first game or not.

    My favorite part about last week is scoring the second most points and losing.

    Now I know how jent feels.
