6 Viable Options For 2012 FAAB In The NFFC In 2012

that might not be the only reason wayne. if you carry 2 qb's and one is on a bye week and the other gets beat up on sunday and plays on thurs then if ww were wed and fri it would allow you to wait and see if he plays. thats one case. there are others.

You're right Frank - I was carrying that to the extreme. In order to keep waivers on Fridays you would just have to account for that one game the following week 6 days in advance. With the Wednesday deadline we will be looking at 15 games 5 days in advance. I just don't get it.

But either way we'll move forward. There isn't a solution to make everyone happy.

The bye weeks cause the problem. if ( and i hope not ) ww were only friday then unless you carry 3 kickers , 3 te , and 3 qb's then it is possible to get a zero due to bye weeks and sunday injury. wed only has you guessing on that gametime player leaving thurs and fri info out. i know its more work for some guys and understand that but to me logic is two faab.

Looks like they narrowed it down to 2 choices across the street.

1. Wednesday only
2. Wednesday with ALL players included, and another one Friday im not that bad with math. much more " D " than " A '
[/QUOTE]matter of fact if you take the time to count votes and count the people who voted for two as a half each you get :

A - 4.5
B- 0
C - 3
D - 14.5
E - 6
F - 0

This is not florida ... no hanging chad's
[/QUOTE]Not sure this is accurate. I voted strongly for A as my first choice, then said D would be my second vote. Without going back and checking, I have a feeling you counted me as giving both A and D a half vote under your tally. If that's the case, I would want to be counted as a full vote for A and no votes for anything else.

I might be mistaken, but I have a feeling that A and D are the two most popular choices. I'm too lazy to add it up though... :rolleyes:

This message board poll is an extremely small sample size of the entire NFFC universe -- especially considering that we are squarely in the off-season.

Bottom line: I wouldn't expect 30 responses to generate a "winning" answer.

Bottom line: I wouldn't expect 30 responses to generate a "winning" answer. Agreed, but I do think there is a growing consensus that just doing it on Friday isn't the best answer for a HSFF contest. So maybe we do narrow it down to a couple of responses and set up a legitimate poll on our Survey site. I mean, the goal here was to give every option possible and have you folks at least lead the NFFC in the right direction. I think you are doing that, even from a small sample size.

It may come down to 2 or 3 choices and we will dig in from there pretty soon. I think we all want to plan accordingly for the next season and this is a MAJOR decision for all of us. I think we made some progress as far as whittling down the choices, checking out what we can do technologically and then going from there. Agreed?
