As you probably all have noticed Fleaflicker looks a little different today. Fleaflicker will now offer fantasy baseball in addition to football.
You can start playing immediately but this is still a beta product and we need your feedback to improve it and iron out all the bugs.
About the game: The baseball game has a very similar feel Fleaflicker's football game. Our goal is to provide a game that can be easy and fun for casual players but also customizable enough to meet the demands of even the most devout Bill James followers.
The game currently supports: - Head to head points based leagues, similar to football (no rotisserie or total points yet) - Daily or weekly locking lineups - Highly customizable hitting, pitching and fielding scoring rules
All of your past footbal teams and leagues will remain totally intact.
In addition, here are upgrades for baseball that will also apply to football: - Ability to set future lineups - Roster max increased to 40 players (+ IR spots) - News provided by Rotowire - Positive values only scoring option (you can prevent players from scoring negative points in any given game) - Option to lock all lineup slots when the first game of the week starts - Trading delay removed (you no longer have to wait until Tuesday to trade players that had games earlier in the week) - Increased ability to sort on free agent player pages and filter on stats pages - Forum dedicated to recruiting new owners - Forum dedicated to user submitted news and analysis
Please send us your questions, suggestions and issues via email or on this forum thread.
Silly deen, they say there is no such thing as a stupid question, but I think you have proven that old adage to be wrong. Transaction limits, roto scoring and other improvements were to be implemented prior to LAST baseball season. It isn't likely to happen this season, if ever. Honestly, what is the last truly worthwhile improvement they made to this place?
Yeah, I pretty much know what the answer is..But I thought it didnt hurt to ask 1 more time in hopes that maybe they finally realized that excessive streaming can and usually does ruin leagues.
I commish 8 baseball leagues and every 1 of them had some sort of streaming drama, some worse than others..
Just cant believe that installing trasaction limits into the system is this hard to do..
I guess it was worth a shot. The most telling thing of all is that they just sit there and hide, they don't answer any questions about these things. The only time they answer any questions about improvements is when they cut and paste the "this is a good idea, but it does not impact gameplay directly so we are not going to make it a priority" nonsense. I am sure glad they prioritized the celeb game and news item comments. We could not have survived without those.

You have baseball scheduled to be launched in 11 days, are you going to have transaction limits and some other asked for features ready this year?
