We'll just have to see if the game limits are low enough.

Umm....apparently I have Gilbert Arenas and Greg Oden in the keeper league...dammit.
lol good lord..reading the draft log...Round 8, I took Kirk Hinrich, and then Derrick Rose went to thig after that....in the Keeper league. What an auto draft special that was.

Yup, autopick can be great or terrible.
The limits can still be changed, but that's going to have to be decided on by a majority for if they need to be lowered. I'm flexible on it.

We'll make the decision after a full week of games (next week)?

yup yup. Sounds like a plan sir!
I believe it goes up to 48 games vs 41 this week.
I'm sure that's going to make a difference for sure.

I can tell you right now I'm very heavily in favor of lowering the limits to the point that adding/dropping players on a daily basis is not advantageous.
If I play all of the players on my roster this week I will get something like 35 games played.

I know you're in favor of lowering, jthig.
We'll see how it plays out next week after a full week and then come to a majority decision, cool?

I am doing better than you on 8 categories out of 11...so I'm up 8 to 3.
That's all it is.

I can't really tell exactly, but you're losing ft%, 3s, points, rebounds, steals, assists, either blocks or steals

Ok, after looking at my games this week, I feel better about the max games settings. Maybe they just did a poor job of setting the max games for that short week. Or maybe I have too many players on the same team and they just happen to be playing more games this week.
Either way, it's clear most weeks the max game setting will work as it's supposed to.

After one week I gotta say I'm really not to crazy about Fantasy Basketball. The whole getting a win/loss for each category seems kinda silly to me. I thought it was just win more categories than your opponent and then you're 1-0. Fantasy Football is a million times better. But since I got Tim Duncan and Chris Paul I guess I'll keep playing.

Seems like a relatively subtle difference to be so upset about.

No actually it's a huge difference, having to win in every category vs getting an overall win. Like I said I'm not crazy about it, that's MY opinion. Do you understand the difference in MY opinion and your own?

I think getting rewarded for each category is more fair. So even if you lose the week but you win a couple of categories, you still get credit for those. They may come in handy later.

I was initially for just the 1-0 record, just because it's simpler, but after winning 8-1 last week, I'm glad it doesn't count the same as someone who won 5-4.

I have to say too it's pretty stupid to have 3 different rebounding categories; Defensive Rebounding, Offensive Rebounding and TOTAL REBOUNDING? That's redundant of the other two categories.

Yeah I know but I'm the guy who won 5 to 4, and that's because I lost in 3 different Rebound categories which should of been 2. But oh well, since I got Chris Paul and Tim Duncan I'll keep going and see what happens.

like me.. I'm never going to win assists, so I'm not even going to worry about it. I might even try trading Deron for someone cause there's really no difference in losing assists 50-90 than 30-90
