Quick question. What happens if there is a time for the lowest score in a week?

It's a great question and one we need to answer in the Rules. We'll update the Rules now to show this:

Elimination Tiebreaker:
1. Season-to-date points
2. Highest scoring player in current week
3. Second-highest scoring player in current week, etc.

Great concept. We're in round 11 with a good group right now. Is there any chance we can get a clock reduction down the stretch?

I get that you picked 16 rounds to make FAAB viable in the beginning weeks, but I wouldn't have been able to resist the symmetry of a 17 team, 17 round draft. :lol:

No, we won't be reducing the time in the Guillotine leagues. Like you said, most of these are going really quick. I think we're fine as is.

Do we look like symmetry guys? :lol: But you are right, 17 rounds, 17 teams has a nice ring to it.

The good news that we haven't mentioned yet is that we will offer Guillotine leagues during the NFL season. So before Week 2 we'll offer a Saturday night Guillotine league that consists of 16 teams, 16 rounds (PERFECT symmetry). And before Week 3 we'll offer a Saturday night league that consists of 15 teams, 16 rounds and continue like this until we are at Week 8 with 10 teams. We'll still cut every regular season off after Week 13 and have four teams battling for the prize money in Weeks 14-16. Stay tuned, but this has great potential as an in-season game with a couple of different price points (maybe $200 and one around $100).
