Playoff Setting of 7 Teams/1 Bye
Can you guys please add a playoff setting of 7 teams, 1 bye.
where the top overall seed of the regular season were to earns a bye for the first round of the playoffs instead of playing the 8th seed. after the first round bye the #1 seed would play the winner of the #4 and #5 seed matchup in the 2nd round. while the rest of the playoffs continues the same as if it were on an 8 team playoff setting.It would be nice to add an incentive to be the top overall seed but I feel like…

Allow edit to # of teams making playoffs by the commissioner.
With a league of 14 teams, I want to have 7 teams make the playoffs w the reg season champ being awarded a bye. Why doesn't Yahoo allow this? It's either 6 or 8 teams.

Bring back the "if you played everyone each week" stat in the weekly recaps
Bring back the "if you played everyone each week" stat in the weekly recaps. They were a good way to judge how well your team is doing and better than most stats in the "StatSmack"

More customizable scoring and standings
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.

Guillotine leagues
Can you add the option for guillotine leagues? These are leagues where the lowest scoring team is eliminated and it’s roster is put back into the player pool to be available for waivers/free agency to the teams surviving. This happens until there is one team left

Release draft order once league is finalized
Draft order should be randomly assigned when the league members are finalized, not 30 minutes before it begins. This would allow people to do mock drafts in their assigned draft position and prepare properly ahead of time.

Out players stay Out until the NFL injury updates
There should be a presumption that an injured player out in Week X will still be out in Week X+1 unless and until the team issues a Game Status report (Friday before a Sunday game) clarifying whether the player is something other than Out.

Customize IR Slot
Please allow us to customize IR slot.
As commissioner, I'd like to be able to only allow IR (Injured Reserve), O (Out) and PUP (Physically Unable to Perform) designations for that slot.
Personally, I don't think NA (Not Active), P (Probable), Q (Questionable) and Suspended (SUSP) should be used, but make that customizable so folks can allow it if they prefer.

You should be able to adjust how many votes it takes to veto a trade. It should take six in my opinion. Why don't I have that option to make

Custom Draft Order
It was 56 minutes before the draft was scheduled to take place and I wanted to set a custom draft order, but Yahoo has an arbitrary rule where I can't change the draft order 1 hour before the draft. So I had to reschedule the whole draft. Thanks, Yahoo, for not giving me full control over my league.

Stop listing players as questionable in game injury. The player is taken "out" and does not return. Out should be status until week update.
Stop listing players as questionable with in game injury. When the player is taken "out" and does not return, the player is not questionable. Out should be status until weekly practice update. When you are out and do not return, you are out and not questionable. This would allow management of the player by IR roster, add, and drop.

Record Book errors
After the problems with Yahoo player scoring at the end of WK 11 the league Record Books have errors.
Example:
Team Points - Most
Single Week (me vs opponent)- Wk 11 225.00 (includes Monday Night Game)
Single Week, All Time (me vs opponent)- Wk 11 Season 2018 225.00 (includes Monday Night Game)Team Points - Least
Single Week, All Time (me vs opponent)- Wk 11 Season 2018 95.00 (Does Not include Monday Night Game)So in the same week (Wk 11, 2018) I scored both the Most, All Time and the Least, All Time
The same error applies for Passing…

transparency on who vetoed a trade
Trade Veto Transparency (TVT).
Allow all League Members (or at least the Commish) to see who voted against a trade. We have certain League Members who hide behind the current anonymity and veto trades that help other teams (even though the trades themselves are fair).
I'm against Commissioner Review because of timing issues (i.e. I have a life outside of Fantasy Football and sometimes I don't get around to checking the League for a few days) and also I don't want all the other League Members contacting me directly about why the trade is legitimate or why I should not…

Decimal Points for Kickers in Fantasy Football
With the majority of leagues going to decimal points is there a way to have kickers go to decimal scoring also? All FG up to 30yrds will be the standard 3pts. After that the kicks will work on a decimal system. So a 42yrd FG will be 4.2pts. This this will be more fair to the player. It’s frustrating that a 49yrd FG is only worth 4pts when it’s closer to 50yrd for 5pts than it is 40yrds for 4pts

Allow commissioners to edit entire playoff brackets, winners and consolation brackets
This suggestion is mostly for consolation brackets. Right now, in a 12 team league with top 6 seeds making the winners bracket, seeds 7 and 8 get byes in the first round of the consolation bracket. They are then set up to face the winners of the 9/12 and 10/11 matchups.
This essentially eliminates seeds 7 and 8 from losing the consolation bracket and coming in dead last. In leagues where the person in last place has a "punishment" for losing it basically makes it so that two teams check
