Figured we might as well have a thread dedicated to any rule changes and/or discussions for next season. This is the place to do that.

Already on the table is a proposal to raise the buy-in next year to $20 or $25. Thoughts?

Anything else anyone wants to discuss tweaking for next year?

I'm for a $20 buy-in. It also looks like we might be down to 12 teams again. I guess it's a good thing we expanded last year. Sorry to see you go, Psychofish.

Anybody else not coming back, or thinking of not coming back?

Fish and Solly are definitely out now. Moose might be out, it seems, if we raise the entry fee to $20. Can everyone look for potential owners to see if we can stay at 14 and/or need to find a 12th? I'll open a poll regarding the entry fee. Are there any other rule changes we want to vote on?

Finding new owners shouldn't be too difficult.

Except for scheduling, where 14 makes it a simple "Everyone plays everyone once"

Agreed on the scheduling. I just think 12 is a good number in terms of everyone having a decent bench and the free agent pool not being barren after a week or two.

Happy with 12 or 14 teams next year.

Not 100% sure I'm in yet. The buy-in may be a contributing factor. I enjoyed winning the money this year, but don't know if I want to commit too much money to something that I'm viewing as just for fun. The other contributing factor may be my summer plans. If I'm overseas during the draft, I may have to drop out like I did a couple of years ago. I don't actually have anything on the books, but I'll keep you all posted. Don't count me out yet though. I assume, I have time to think about it?

As for number of teams, 12 is a good number. 14 was good for scheduling (at least in theory, I played Lou twice this year for some reason, and Thai 0 times), but the free agent pool was killed, week after week.

Reach out and let's see what happens. I'd like to have owners waiting for spots now rather than us searching for owners at the last minute before the draft. As we lose owners (or not) we can just slide the new ones in.
