I need some help with the scoring system in a new PPR league. I started a new league because I'm in one that has 14 teams and the pool of players is so thin it becomes a game of luck rather than strategy. The league wants PPR, but with 8 teams I'm worried the pool will become bloated and to talented so then it becomes the opposite of my other problem.
What would you suggest to level out the scoring system so it is fair and challenging at the same time?
Here is my scoring system that I applied from the other league.
Thanks for the help. My first time being commissioner.
