This used to be a fantasy league classic, but since the game went online, it doesn't seem to be used that often.

What I'm talking about is a consolation bracket where the *loser* of each head-to-head matchup advances in the bracket. Essentially, it's a "Biggest Loser" playoffs.

I would love to see this supported in Fleaflicker. I would imagine it as a toggle menu setting:

Consolation Bracket Settings

[ ] Winner Advance - teams with the highest score in their head-to-head games advance

[*] Loser Advance - teams with the lowest score in their head-to-head games advance

Hi Legion,

Right now the workaround would be to do it manually - we did address it in our Owner's Manual for you and others:

Can I set up a “toilet bowl”?

A “toilet bowl” is a playoff tournament where the losers advance. There's no explicit support for this, but the commissioner can manually advance the loser every week by going to League >> Settings >> Edit Past Box Score.

We hope to eventually have this automatic, but it's not on the imminent agenda right now, but is on there.

It's been 2 years since this reply, so I'm going to raise the flag for this one again.

Toilet Bowl / "Sacko" is an institution in fantasy football. Manual loser advance is a less than ideal workaround.

This would be so helpful to have it implemented. I doubt it was ever actually in their agenda lol.
