Schedule/Scoring Formats - 'Doubleheaders vs league score median'.
Each week, the median fantasy points of all teams in the league is calculated by taking the middle number in a sorted list of scores of each team. Each team would get a win if they beat the league median and a loss if they lose to it.

+1 on this suggestion. Seems it should be easy enough to implement. Just do it.

Because Y! are a bunch of yahoos. They'll never figure that out. My 9 yr old knows more than they do.

Does Yahoo have a doubleheader options in Fantasy Football, i.e., each team plays 2 teams during a week, making it a 26 game schedule.

I agree. This should be an option

My league has been waiting for this for a few years already. I can’t understand why yahoo hasn’t made it available yet. We’ve resorted to making our own schedule offline and editing the points each week to reflect the standings. Instead of a record (11-2 for example) we add the number 11 to your total points value. We have a whole excel spreadsheet with our keeper players values, future values, years of keeper eligibility, standings for 2 matchups H2H, playoff bracket, standings if you were to play every team every week and more. It’s like running a fantasy league offline. Real embarrassment that we can’t do more on yahoo. Yahoo should consult with my commissioner because he’s brilliant.

Would love to be able to have scoring and standings as follows: win your matchup, get a win. Place top half in scoring for the week and get another win. Finish bottom half in scoring, you get a loss. 2 wins/losses every week. Prevents the person leading the league in scoring from being 0-4 going into week 5. I want this specifically for my league, but would like to see more customization available in general.

We are leaving Yahoo for a paid site so that we can have All-Play.

For example if you win and you are the 5th highest scorer for the week in a 10 man league you get 2 points towards your standing if you’re 6th and win you go 1-1 if you lose and are bottom half you go 0-2 or you lose and are top half for the week you go 1-1 it’s a way to negate unlucky matchups and praise consistency while having the head to head experience

Yes. This is exactly what I would like to see as an option for leagues. Please incorporate this.

This was posted before the 2016-2017 season -- we're now in the 2018-2019 season. It really been 3 seasons of gathering feedback!?
Come on! Let's get this enabled for next year's 2019-2020 season!

Why is this still gathering feedback? Shouldn't be particularly difficult to enable the *option* right? Go check Apex Leagues and maybe you can figure out how they enabled it.
Remember, it's an *option* for gamers. You're creating more value for users and attracting more serious users as well; doesn't change any kind of default settings...

Can you please add a Fantasy Football setting for leagues to allow multiple wins per week: 1 win for winning your head-to-head matchup and 1 win for finishing in the top half of the league in scoring.
Therefore, each week, every manager can go 0-2, 1-1 or 2-0.

Yahoo add this, please. Would love to play every other team every week. But if you keep refusing that, I'll take multiple matchups any day.

Similar to another idea but allow commissioner to create a custom victory point based league standings. For example, in a 10 team league, something like 10 victory points for a win and an additional point for every team you would've beat that week. For example:
In scoring terms, Team 1 beats Team 2 and Team 9 Beats Team 10
Team 1 - 19 Victory Points (1 win + outscored 9 teams)
Team 2 - 8 Victory Points (0 Win + outscored 8 teams)
Team 9 - 11 Victory Points (1 Win + outscored 1 team)
Team 10 - 0 Victory Points (0 Win + outscored 0 teams)It takes away some of the luck factor without completely removing it. But allow the commissioner to determine the points system.

I agree with the problem, but better solutions are available.
Your league can use "total points" ranking to determine the team which really was the best during the season.
Or, Yahoo can adopt cross-country scoring. -

When is Yahoo going to make this change? This should have been done a decade ago. I can't think of a single reason why multiple matchups isn't at the top of the To Do List.

I've pitched this idea for my league for five years. It's seems like a logical way to eliminate the "luck" of head-to-head. Plus, it get rids of the old adage "That's just fantasy," when a team that scores the second most points in a week gets a loss, despite outscoring everyone in the league, except for one team.
