Playoffs - Edit matchups for every round.
This feature would allow commissioners to edit the matchups for every round of the playoffs. Currently, only the first round of the playoffs can be changed.

I want to customize our playoff schedule.
Week 15
game 1 -> 1 vs 2 ( winner will proceed t0 final week and will play championship game)
Game 2 -> 3 vs 4
game 3 -> 5 vs 6Week 16
game 1 (loser of week 15 game 1 vs Winner of Week 15 Game 2
game 2 (loser of week 15 Game 2 vs Winner of week 15 Game 3Week 17
(Winner of week 15 1 vs 2) vs (winner of week 16 game 1)
(loser of week 16 game 2) vs (winner of week 16 game 2)For last few seasons players who are finishing at top with 11 or 12 wins are not winning championship game and players who are finishing at 5 or 6th positions with 7 wins are winning championship game. We feel this is unfair and the above format will ensure top 2 will get 2 chances at playing championship game and players who finish at 5th/6th position will play always for 3rd position.

allow commissioner to reset ALL playoff weeks (in order to match individual league formats)

That's a serious rule for a serious league

Allow commissioner to reseed playoff bracket in each round of the playoffs. My league allows the highest seed to choose their opponent from the remaining playoff teams in both round one and two. Currently, seeding is locked after round one.

Why is the ability to reseed teams manually by the commissioner still not a capability in the midst of the post-season?

Have there be an option that when you do not have divisions, have the top 5 teams automatically make the playoffs, and the 6th seed be the next highest point total of the season. I know there is the option to edit matchups for the first round, but this would be a quick edit then to that programming.

Another year goes by and still no change.
You suck Yahoo -
Dcat commented
My LORD! People have been screaming for this change since 2016 on this thread and Yahoo hasn't done a thing? WTF is wrong with Yahoo? This is an easy fix for them. A-holes.

In our league the 1 & 2 seeds have week 15 byes while 3 plays 6 and 4 plays 5. Our rules allow the #1 seed to select his opponent from the winners in week 15. It's the big benefit of having "won" the regular season.
But stupid yahoo only allows you to edit the seedings before the playoff starts and freezes everything once it does. Probably the dumbest thing Yahoo has ever done. Commish needs to be able to edit matchups for EVERY round in private leagues. Jeez, how stupid is yahoo?

Once again we are PLEADING for you all to get this done. It’s not a hard fix and it is something that makes things 10x easier for commissioners. Don’t let yet another season go by without getting this done.

I am strongly in support of this and want it implemented next year. This is a huge miss by Yahoo and may make us move off of Yahoo this year.

My League also wants to reseed the consolation bracket. We use it to determine first overall pick next year. Right now we have to manually keep track of it and its quite annoying.

Allow the commissioner to change the weekly matchups during the playoff. Why is this locked? Allowing the commissioner to reseed or update matchups in the playoffs would allow us to customize without asking Yahoo for extra options or looking at other platforms.
For the post-season to keep everyone playing, we have a toilet bowl where the loser moves on in the bottom bracket. Yahoo automatically moves the winner forward. We also allow the top seed still in the playoffs on top or the toilet bowl on the bottom to choose their opponent. With reseeding or updating weekly matchups, the commissioner can update for the correct matchup.

For example: 10 team league, two 5 team divisions. Top three from each division move on (instead of the default top 6 overall) to playoffs and the best remaining team from each division play in the finals. What's the point of divisions if the top 6 are picked in the end anyway?

In order to ignite rivalries, our league would like for the higher-ranked seed to be able to choose their opponent. But Yahoo's extremely limited customizability makes this impossible (along many other fun playoff ideas).
Seems like a simple fix to give the commish the power to change the matchups. Let's get it done.
