Ya just let it play out that's life

If Lakeshow loses to me this week he's the one who misses out on the spot and all this fuss is for nothing

If he wins and gets in oh well.. don't be 6-8 after week 14 sucks to suck.

The problem is, (and I've said this already in discord and league chat) that is too late to make these adjustments. Yes its a problem, yes it sucks, however it should have been noticed, and acted on, BEFORE the games ran, at this point there is nothing that can be done except for swapping out Watson (WR GB) tonight for someone else. Anything BESIDES that, would be actual collusion

Lol it was noticed and mentioned before games ran, you can literally
see my posts trying to find a way to contact him. commish just sat on his thumb tho, it wasn't until I annihilated Chris yet again in fantasy that he Karen'd out and here we are.

Set the playoffs to 9 ppl or refunds need to be distributed asap. Lmao

Would there be a different outcome had Swish played players from his bench? Say the top 4 projected points players.

I’m not in the league but I’d vote that the Commish should manually simulate Swish having a proper starting lineup.

To expect either the commish or anyone else to recognize this in advance and raise this issue is unrealistic. The answer is in getting proper managers in your league.

100%

I see this situation come up in facebook groups all the time.
My opinion doesn’t matter but I agree to an extent.

If you can prove that the guy purposely not setting his lineup and was given money or something to just lose…which is damn near impossible.

Team that needs a W to get in put THEMSELVES in that position.
If you’re relying on another team to win to get you in then you have no one to blame but yourself.

Why would you not replace the players with guys from mnf if you have the opportunity though? Still a chance to start active guys yet commish refuses to play a full line up and keeps 4 out players so someone gets shafted?

I mean, you may feel shafted but at the end of the day the guy whose team was clearly abandoned paid the same price to enter. It might suck that he has given up and ruined someone else’s chances by being a sore loser but *shrugs*

It’s a game, ya win or you lose.

My unsolicited thoughts here. I agree with straightedge. Isn't this only being treated as a big deal because of the week and the known impact on playoff implications? What if this has happened in week 6, and a guy forgot to set his lineup properly? It could have the same impact on playoffs in the end, but I can't imagine anyone would be calling for intervention (assuming no collusion)

I don’t think this is a case of remembering to set a lineup though tbh.
But I agree. I think it’s perfectly fair for the commish to force change the guys lineup but giving a refund because you feel cheated based on the fact that he NEEDS to win to get in and someone else isn’t competing for it to happen? Can’t see that being a possible outcome here.
