Toilet Bowl/Last place standoff
ALL teams should still be allowed to play during the playoff weeks. As a commissioner I hand out a loser trophy at the end of the year. We call it the toilet bowl, but Yahoo dose not allow the last teams to play each other, and in the final league standings, yahoo does not readjust the final spots at the bottom of the list. So what I am asking for is to PLEASE PLEASE allow the last place teams the chance to play each other. It still makes the game fun to the very end.

Not finishing last is very important in leagues among friends. We need to know who was the worst team to allow ridicule for the following season. Some leagues even have punishments for finishing last. This forces every team to keep playing until the final week so that they don't give up mid season after a slow start.

Consolation bracket should include all teams that do not qualify for the Championship bracket. Then allow the option to set it to have losers advance in effort to find out the Greatest Loser.
Nobody plays to see who can finish in 7th, 8th, or 9th. We want be able to work backwards to find out who is the ultimate loser.

I want to be able to schedule our toilet bowl (losers of consolation bracket) game on week 17 for extra punishment.

We have a "Toilet Bowl" in my league for dead last place. We also have a championship bracket as does everyone... and those who don't make either, play in a consolation bracket for points and total wins on the season, that may determine draft order or something else. Let me edit the schedule, matchup, seeds, byes, everything playoff schedule related. I can adjust all of that in the regular season, but not playoff. Pretty please!

As the top two teams play for the Super Bowl have the two bottom teams play for the Toilet Bowl, and even come up with a trophy for them as well. It would help keep everyone involved all the way to the end of the season

there is an option in the commish settings to allow the losing teams to still play, but after the season is over you are only ranked where you finished the regular season and not the losers bracket

I'm adding my vote to having this implemented. It's been years and years and we've been asking for something that has long been possible on other fantasy football websites.
There's no reason why 6+ teams shouldn't be allowed to have a consolation playoffs.
Having consolation brackets can keep teams out of it more competitive and have a fairer overall league. It could be used for consolations prizes. It can help with draft order and keepers for the following year. There's just so many pros to this idea, I don't know why it hasn't been implemented already. DO IT!

PPR scoring is available for private leagues. There is no such thing as a PPR league on Yahoo!, but PPR scoring is available as an option to the commish.

I always run a PPR League, which sadly you do not have and would like to see this feature next year.
I am new to Yahoo FFL and was surprised you do not have the ability to test the scoring system.

there has to be a toilet bowl option added. it's the second most important game next to winners bowl game. we have a toilet bowl trophy that needs to be awarded and by record or total points seems like a poor way to do it. ADD THE TOILET BOWL!!!!

Give the loser bracket a chance to win the toilet bowl and earn money too in cash leagues. Like 1st $100, 2nd $40, 3rd $10, and toilet bowl champ $5. Make an option for them to win money too.

The playoff system needs a toilet bowl and it also needs to be more customizable. The Top 2 teams (seeds) get a bye. Then the 2 teams with the best overall record and then the 2 teams with most points scored. This is for a 12 team league with 6 playoff teams.

There is a feature request for the "Toilet Bowl" game which is along these lines.
it has more comments, so let's gather the momentum there.Currently (Aug 2016) it's ranked 18th I believe.
