Heh.

How does it work through the playoffs as fantasy teams get eliminated? Are those team rosters then dumped and it's a free for all, or do we have to keep replacing our players with whoever is still available as actual teams get eliminated through conference playoffs?

The winning team can poach 2 players from the team that they beat. All of the other players on the beaten team are off-limits to everyone after that.

There are poaching rules...I believe last year was 4 transactions of which 2 can be poaches from the team you just beat.

Need a ruling in USCHO 3, who's the 3 seed and who's the 4?

Honestly the code doesn't account for that scenario since there is no reasonable tiebreaker such as H2H. And I don't know what will happen if it does since I don't have a way to test it. Based on the seeding algorithm I think it will choose randomly. There is a risk though that it will choose differently each time the page is pulled.

I say without looking at anything we should do most points from Defensemen, Forwards, Goalies in that order if we have that kind of information?

Keep up that attitude and you'll get knocked out in the first round...WBWs stopped caring about the RS title a few months ago...just biding his time for playoffs ;)

I'm pretty sure NMUKat was in 8th last season (or was it two years ago) and then bumped off the #1 in the first round.

I'm quite pleased by my steady climb from the basement to fourth.
 
Re: Fantasy College Hockey #9 (The Apricot-Flavored Season)

So I put a fix in. It gets the job done in a barebones way. If there is a tie for seeding purposes, the system will decide randomly.

Sorry, the more robust ways of determining ties are too hard to code for the amt of time I have right now.

I also put in a more robust error checking in the roster change function. So please let me know if you see anything funny with the add/drop to free agency function or with the playoffs.

Thanks Bob. I would have recommended a simple coin flip. If we can't trust you who can we trust?! :D

Thompson was an undrafted free agent in my league. I got lucky and snapped him up earlier in the year.
