We've made a number of updates for this upcoming football fantasy postseason.  

• Auction drafts - a new way to draft postseason players via a live bidding process. 
• Team Kickers - in addition to team quarterbacks and team defense and special teams, we have added team kickers as an optional roster position configuration.
• Per Round Salary Cap - we've added a new setting "Require Managers to Select New Team Each Round" for per round salary cap games. After each round, rosters will automatically be cleared and managers will need to pick new players. 
• DST - we have renamed the DEF roster position slot to DST. Nothing changes in terms of defensive and special teams scoring.
• Abbreviations - we've created a helpful guide to assist with acronyms used by Fantasy Postseason. 
• Cookie Policy Acceptance - users will be prompted to accept our site's cookie policy.

We have deprecated support of Silent Drafts - but note that a similar...

We've recently added support for a Bracket View page for College Basketball Tournament leagues.  The page can be found under your league's Players sub-menu and can be a useful tool to consult during your drafts. This page shows the number of players drafted on a given team.  More importantly, you can consult it to ensure that you don't draft players from different teams that might be too closely grouped in a given region.  For example, if you pick players from a #4 seed (such as Villanova) and also a #5 seed (such as Purdue) and they are in the same region, you're going to lose players if those two teams meet in the 2nd round of the NCAA tournament.

So before you enter your draft, open up a browser tab specifically for Bracket View and refresh it as you're making your picks, you'll put yourself in the best position to win your tournament fantasy league.

Registration is open for our annual Fantasy Postseason tournament challenge.  Select 12 players that you think will net you the most points during the NCAA Tournament. Details and sign up information can be found here: https://www.fantasypostseason.com/league/contest_signup/74878.

The NFL postseason has been expanded to a 14-team field and therefore the player pool will be larger by 2 teams.  Six wildcard teams will play during Wildcard weekend.

Second, we've transitioned to the official NFL real-time stats feed via SportRadar.  As a part of this change, we've had to remove a handful of niche scoring categories.  

The following scoring categories are no longer supported:

• QB Pick Six
• 40-Yard, 50-Yard Rushes/Receptions/Passes
• Rushes/Receptions/Passes for First Downs

Of course, commissioners can make manual scoring adjustments if needed.

We've opened up registration for our 2020-21 playoff fantasy football leagues!  Drafts begin on 01/04.

We've opened up registration for the NHL playoffs!  However, due to uncertainties associated with the upcoming postseason we are holding off on accepting payments for now.

We've opened up registration for the NBA playoffs!  However, due to uncertainties associated with the upcoming postseason we are holding off on accepting payments for now.

For the first time since 2016 we will be increasing our league pricing costs.  Premium leagues will be increasing from $19.99 to $24.99, and premium pool leagues will be increasing from $29.99 to $39.99.  We do our utmost to manage our expenses very carefully, but there are some items that recognize annual price increases that are completely out of our control. 

On a positive note, with premium pool leagues we have decided to reduce our costs for our very large leagues; upgrades over 200 users will now be $25 per additional 100 users (as opposed to each additional 50 users).  We will also be investing in a switch to a new email service provider to help improve our relays.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we implement these changes.  We sincerely appreciate each and every one of our users, and thank you for making us your fantasy home for the playoffs since 2008.

It's NCAA basketball tournament time, and The Fake Basketball is once again providing cheat sheets:

From The Fake Basketball team:  "Much like last season, we are bringing you a wide array of tools and information to help you with any of your NCAA Tournament Fantasy needs. Our Customizable Bracket and Rankings Excel has no peer on the market for your March Madness draft needs, but there's so much more: brackets, bracket analysis, individual player rankings, draft strategy, sleepers, locks, injuries, play-in round analysis, you name it, we have it in our comprehensive Tourney Package."

Registration is now open for our college basketball tournament fantasy leagues.  Our offering provides a means to play fantasy sports during the classic March NCAA tournament and is one of our more popular fantasy games.  We offer a number of different formats for this game but the most popular is the standard player pool approach where the further your players advance, the more points your fantasy tournament team scores.  Some leagues make things more interesting by limiting the number of players that you can select from a given team.  Others put restrictions on the number of players that can be drafted from each seed.  Create your league now and enjoy the tournament like never before!

Over the years, we've received a number of requests from commissioners to be able to view email addresses from users in their leagues.  Due to our privacy policy, we've avoided providing direct access - however, we did create custom league pages where new users were warned that joining that league would expose their email address to the commissioner (and they could choose to either join the league or not).

To simplify the process, we've added a new league setting called 'Require Managers To Share Email Addresses' that commissioners can set to 'Yes' when they create their league.  Once set, potential league members will be prompted with the following warning:  'The commissioner for this league requires that they can see the email address associated with each league member. Please confirm that you still want to join this league?'.  At that time, users can choose to 'Join' or 'Leave' the league.

...

Following a number of user requests, we've enhanced our salary cap add/drop process by adding a shadow interface where players can be added and dropped without impacting moves.  As changes are made, a running total of 'Pending Moves' (player adds) is shown, along with a warning that pending changes must be saved.  Once player changes are made that fit under the salary cap and contain your desired players, select the 'Save' button - only then will new player additions count against your total number of moves.  If you wish to cancel all player changes, select the 'Discard' button (no moves will be counted).

Please note the following:
- This change will only be made available for salary cap leagues that limit the number of free agent moves and allow unlimited player selection.
- This change will be made active starting with the college basketball tournament in March.
