Yes! One more team, please! A bye week would suck.

Kind of defeats the whole point of having to set a lineup doesn't it?

I complained so many times last season about having a ton of points on my bench, but I still voted no auto subs.

I agree completely, think we should definitely be punished for making the wrong call, even if it seems harsh and unfair at the time.

Not having auto subs adds an element of suspense and drama.

There wouldn't be a bye week per say. If pits that person against the league average score for the week. Which sucks even harder.

If your Head-to-Head league has an odd number of teams, the system automatically generates an extra team. "League Average" is scheduled against one real opponent each week and the score for that team is the Gameweek average of the all teams in your League.

If we don't have someone a few hours before the draft, should we boot someone? I can't believe we can't get a 12th team.

Booting someone would be pretty harsh, I'd say.

As for auto subs, I definitely flipped to a no vote on that. As of now, looks like we will not be using it.

Yeah I'd say no to booting someone, if the "league average" thing makes things more difficult then I'm all for it anyway lol.

I'd post it in a couple of the other soccer threads if you haven't already. Can't remember if you posted it in the Premier League thread or not.

Does Togga have the option to change format from head to head to a rotisserie or total points style? If we have only 11, it's an option. I prefer head to head though as I'm sure everyone else does too.

The fantasy baseball league I'm in is rotisserie and a lot of fun. But for soccer, head to head is probably the best if not only option. Haha

Going up against league average instead of a bye is interesting though to say the least, but I think I'd prefer that to a bye week. It'll at least keep it interesting.

Crap I think I voted twice (insert political joke here).

I actually like the idea of going against "league average". I hope they're everyone's bogey side.

You did, I got a kick out of it.
