I distinctly remember 18-man rosters at one point.

19 or 20 for 2012?? I'm interested in your input not your flashbacks!!

Well if we go to 20 player rosters, I change my vote to A in the other thread...

Keep it at 19, the FAAB pool is ridiculously shallow as it is.
If you go 20, you might as well call this event the Classic DC.

Having participated two years ago in the Classic in Dallas and seeing the low turnout at that location, I can understand why Vegas is a better location for the live drafting. For those of us who cannot get out to Vegas, is there or could there be any way of combining Classic leagues that draft live along with drafting online? Since I couldn't get out to Vegas for a live draft, I still might be willing to join a Classic league if I could do it online. Thoughts?

Definitely 20! It won't make a beans bit of difference on the waiver wire but it will make rosters much easier to manage. I hate being penalized for dropping a deep team during the bye weeks and having to drop my backups.

Greg,

I like option 2:

League Prize:
1st - $6,000
2nd - $2,500
3rd - $1,250

Overall Prizes
1st - $75,000
2nd - $25,000
3rd - $12,500
4th - $5,000
5th - $3,500
6th - $2,500
7th - $2,500
8th - $2,500
9th - $1,500
10th - $1,500

With your ** Both teams get $3,000 and they play in Weeks 14-16 for the additional $2,500 prize and the league title. That way 1st place wins $5,500 and 2nd place gets $3,000. So there is a chance for 2nd place to double their money, but they have to at least win h2h or total points during the regular season.

The above proposal also gives you a little something extra if you win both the record and points in the regular season which I think is great!

20 man rosters: 110% forsure!

Combined Standings: Absolutely leave them, it always gets me to sign up for a few extra teams! Add them for the Primetime too!
