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.
Hal, can you explain to us what the programmer has to do to make this possible? I guess I can understand programming roto and h2h cats can take some time but why is transaction limits so hard?
If you guys cant do it then thats fine but if anything can you at least give us transaction limits? I know I sound like a broken record because ive been asking for this for over a year but im gonna have baseball leagues fall apart this year because of this...Even in basketball its frustrating, 10 leagues with at least 80 transactions everyday and I cant really say anything about it because its within the rules with no limts available..
An owner knows he doesnt have to show up for a draft because he can stream his way to a win..Auto picks will give him 10 good players or whatever then he can dump and reload the rest of the players everyday.
