Huddle Fantasy Football League (s) ?

[PntherPryd]

Many years ago I ran a 48 team league on the Huddle with fair to middling success.  I am contemplating offering this option again this summer but curious to see how many others would be interested.

 

In a "Mega League" you basically have four different "conferences" of 12 teams each that draft like separate leagues.  But each conference follows the same rules and same schedules.  The key is that these teams play an abbreviated schedule and only the top 2-4 teams move on to the "Playoffs"

 

The Playoff contenders then enter into a new bracket and are seeded.  There is a very good possibility that some teams in the playoffs would possibly have the same players at one or more positions.  This can be awkward, weird or a real strategy play.  In our case several years ago only three NFL players matched up against each other and in one case the owner benched the star player and the backup outscored him.  The point is, you can view it as a roadblock or a challenge.

 

The benefit of a "Mega League" is that you get one owner out of 48 Huddlers that can truly claim the Huddle Championship and receive a special banner/trophy.

 

The pain of a Mega League is finding 48 owners that commit to playing all season and pay their dues in advance.  I would be willing to run it and guarantee the payouts but only if interest is shown.  I realize there are leagues some Huddlers have played on that would want to keep operating and of course they would be pinned here also.  

 

Please vote and/or add in your two cents.  It is a Public Poll (non-binding, just collecting list of potential owners) and there is option to vote for more than one.

Does the 160 mean you paid yourself to put the league on? Just curious

yes.  I fronted the money but it came out of the prize money at the end.

 

at the time this was the only platform I could find that would support multiple leagues sourcing a late season playoff league.  I suspect there are more and cheaper options now than 8 years ago.

 

I know it's early but just gauging interest for early summer organizing.

I'm in

[PntherPryd]

I just decided I'm not going to do a "mega" league.  Don't think we have 48 committed players.

 

I will be renewing the two from last year though, I'm sure there will be new openings.

I'm in for a free or $ league if there are openings.

[Mr Mojo Risin]

I would definitely be interested in this

did you run the one that I won last year? I'd be back in on that if it's going again.

I ran two on here and will reinstate both soon, with emails going out to last year's owners first.
