This is correct. You set your lineups on your league pages as you did for the first 13 weeks.

Hate these double line ups I thought I changed the correct one for my kicker and DF but chagned the wrong one when your in a lot of leagues easy to make that mistake...I just noticed it still had time to switch my DF they both play late but screwed myself at kicker.

I'm not a fan as well. 95% of the time I imagine someone would use exact same lineup.

Sure enough Janikowski just hit a 57 yard FG to go with his earlier 2 FG's. No way I can ever get these points back and if I end up outside the top 25 or god forbid lose out on #1 because of this I will be sick for years. Janikowski 16.7 so far and Tucker only had 6.5.

This was my team in 15th overall coming into the week those 10+ points will end up being huge I am sure.

Totally my fault but I thought I switched the right one in fact I go through and change all of them somehow this one didn't go through as frustrated as I have ever been because it wasn't a decision mistake but a input mistake.

Janikowski up to 20 pts this is the most painful thing I have ever been a part of in my 23 years of fantasy football.

Henry,

As someone who is not overly computer savvy, I feel for you. I hope it doesn't end up costing you.

Ended up throwing up a 191 anyway with Jets left tomorrow but those 14 pts will haunt me for a full week until we see how this turns out. It be something to overcome a mistake of this magnitude. Them the breaks I guess.

I like the opportunity to set different lineups, but do agree that the application used with different links is kinda of confusing and will lead to a lot of errors like this.

It might be better if maybe you had a single page to set your team roster for both Playoffs -- maybe with a check box button that you can click to "Play Different Roster" in the League Playoff, if that button is checked then you can make changes to a secondary lineup shown below the Overall Playoff roster.

The check box was the exact idea I had in mind, if it's even worth it. Take a poll of teams in league playoffs and see how many people actually utilized different lineups.

It was a good idea to let teams set different lineups, but if the technology doesn't simplify things, it might be better to not allow it at all.

I F'ed up yesterday. Set my lineup in my regular league because I'm in a playoff for the 2nd $3,000, and never set it for the Championship round. So RG3 and Bradshaw got to play yesterday. Yippee.

I have nobody to blame but myself, but, indeed, setting two lineups was never a good idea.
