Playoff Contest

Recommended Posts

This one is a bit more old-school, and I've been running it with the same set of rules for nearly 20 years.  It started with 8 guys on an Excel spreadsheet, and has grown to 80 participants last year.  Top five scoring teams (over the course of the 4-week NFL playoffs) get paid, as well as the high scoring team each week (and a small bonus to the single-week highest score overall).  Please post in this thread if you would like an invite, or need more information, have questions, etc.  If I don't respond within 24 hours, send me a PM.  Here are the details:

 

- Scoring uses the "keep it simple" approach.  No PPR.  Yardage and TD's, baby.

- No defense or flex.  Start a QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, a TE, and a kicker.

- This contest is a "one and done" format.  You use a player ONCE during the entire NFL playoffs.  This is key when choosing your weekly lineup.

- Cost is $25.  Everything is paid out to the winners....MFL is free and nothing is withheld.

- Lineups are hidden until kickoff (player-specific), so you can not see others' lineups until each game has started.  

 

Here is a breakdown of payouts, based on last year's 80 participants:

 

1st - 650 
2nd - 325
3rd - 225
4th - 175 
5th - 150

Weekly:
Week 18 (Wild Card) - 100
Week 19 (Divisional) - 100
Week 20 (Conference) - 100 
Week 21 (Super Bowl) - 100
Single-Week Bonus - 75 (in addition to the 100 for winning that week, obviously)

2000 total in payouts (80 x 25)

- Scoring uses the "keep it simple" approach.  No PPR.  Yardage and TD's, baby.

- No stinking kickers, defense, or flex.  Start a QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, and a TE.

- This contest is a "one and done" format.  You use a player ONCE during the entire NFL playoffs.  This is key when choosing your weekly lineup.

- Cost is $20.  Everything is paid out to the winners....MFL is free and nothing is withheld.

- Lineups are hidden until kickoff (player-specific), so you can not see others' lineups until each game has started.  

 

Here is a breakdown of payouts, based on last year's 71 participants:

 

1st - $500 
2nd - $250 
3rd - $150
4th - $100 
5th - $70

Weekly:
Week 18 (Wild Card) - $75 
Week 19 (Divisional) - $75 
Week 20 (Conference) - $75 
Week 21 (Super Bowl) - $75
Single-Week Bonus - $50 (in addition to the $75 for winning that week, obviously)

$1420 total in payouts (71 x $20)

I should be in and paid

 

You are.  There is a "PAID" list on the leagues message board on MFL.

You've been in before, correct?  Do you have this year's invite or do you need it again?
