FG Scoring
In my old league on another site, we were able to customize scoring so that all FGs under 30 yards were 3 pts and all over 30 yds was based on yards - 34 yd fg = 3.4 points, 51 yd fg = 5.1 pts etc. On yahoo, it looks like you can only do points for a rank or by yards. The problem with using yards, 25 yd =2.5 pts.. all FGs should be a minimum 3 pts.

Hey Mils,
Commissioners have the ability to edit the scoring settings for FGs so that all FGs under 30 yards are worth 3 points. There is also an option for Field Goal Yards Per Point.
When using this setting, the Fractional Points setting for your league is factored in to determine the total points awarded for field goals.
When Fractional Points are enabled, yards per point are used to calculate the score. For example, when using 10 yards per 1 point, a 19-yard field goal would result in 1.9 points.
When Fractional Points are disabled, field goal total yards are rounded down, as with other scoring stats. For example, two 24-yard field goals would result in 4 points (48 yards, rounds down to 4 points), but three 24 yard-field goals would be 7 points (72 yards, rounds down to 7 points).
This setting is only relevant for successful field goal attempts. There wouldn’t be a penalty for missed field goal attempts using this setting.
Thanks,
