When are you going to fix the confidence points? During bye weeks the confidence points should not start at 1.
During BYE weeks the confidence points should not start at 1. The lower numbers should be dropped instead of the higher numbers so all the weeks have more even scores. People have been asking for this for a decade, why is it such a problem.

Truncate the lower values and keep all the 16, 15, 14, and 13 point plays during the bye weeks.
The current scoring system has too high of a discrepancy of total points from week to week during the bye weeks. All the weeks where there are 16 games the current point system works since there a total of 136 points for each of these weeks. However, as soon as there is one bye, the point total goes down to 120. With two byes in one week the point total goes down to 105. With 3 byes during one week the point total dwindles to a mere 91. It makes these bye weeks way less valuable than the regular weeks.…

pick em
In our family Pro Football Pick'em league, missing a Thursday night game actually rewards you in a week like this when the team everyone picked with high confidence points loses. As commissioner, I wish I could change the settings so that missing a pick (at least on Thu) forfeits your highest available confidence points for the week, rather than leaving everyone else at a disadvantage.

Penalty for missing a game
I think there should be more of a penalty when someone misses picking a game. As of the now the penalty is not being able to assign point 1. I believe the penalty should be they lose the ability to assign the top point for that week. As it is now if someone misses a Thursday game it there is a large upset they will actually benefit from not picking because all they lose is the 1 point

Change of score to be deleted
I suggest changing the elimination of the lowest score for the highest, in order to encourage people to put their picks on time

If someone misses a pick, auto load the middle amount of points for that game. This past week, missing the Thursday night pick benefitted th
When someone misses a pick, a mid level confidence pt should be assigned to that game. This past week, someone forgetting to enter their Thursday pick led to a big benefit by avoiding one of the larger upsets of the week and thus defaulted to them only losing 1 pt while the average points lost by the rest of the league was approximately 9 or 10. Forgetting to enter picks should never benefit someone for winning the week in my opinion. Ideally this would be a setting the commissioner could enter.

When a player doesn't make a game pick, should cost the highest point 1st, not just 1
Many players in our Fantasy Group agree the point system for missed picks is incorrect and not fair. Any missed picks should cost the highest points available first. Players forget Thurs pick only lose 1 pt, should cost the highest number instead. Not fair to players who are responsible, especially if games are upsets.

Some kind of penalty for not picking Thursday night games.
I am in a league with players that do not for some reason not pick Thursday night games. They would only be penalized 1 point because the 16 is still up for them. I think that the highest point total should be eliminated if an early pick is not made

Show how the tie-breakers are determined
We can see the final results in the standings however, none of us are sure how the tie-breakers are scored out at the end of the week. Makes it confusing.

Allow ability to invite managers from other leagues (Football, Baseball, Basketball)
I love this functionality in the other fantasy sports you offer, it's just missing from Pickem. It's a lot to find managers emails to invite them.

Remove 16 confidence points option if you miss games
When a team forgets to submit pick before game starts that game should automatically remove the highest confidence point value. No pick by fist game 16 confidence points is no longer available and 15 becomes your highest value to select and so on. That way team that misses a game can't score 16 on a game when those that did select may lose that 16 confidence points. Someone who submits all picks on time can earn 136 points yet someone who forgot to do the 1st game can still get 135 points. The penalty for not submitting pick on time…

Allow all players picks be displayed for all weeks when all picks are complete.
This has been standard practice in all the previous years I have played.

Make it so dark mode works
I have dark mode set for my yahoo profile. Everything else "yahoo" I tested honors the dark mode setting until I click on my pick'em league. Everything goes bright white when I do.
Actually, this feedback page I am fulling out now is also not honoring the dark mode setting.
Thanks!

Bye week points
In my old league, when there were less games because teams went on bye, we removed the "16, 15, 14, 13, etc." point choices instead of "1,2,3,4, etc.". When you remove the higher points, it makes it hard to catch up to the folks who jumped out ahead in the beginning of the season. It would be great if that was an option

Need way to edit/change team name
I saw were it said we COULD change our team name - but, I don't see any place to do it.
Hey John,
If you go to your team in your group on the website, there should be a gear icon next to your name that will take you to the option to edit your team name.

Drag for Pick-Em
Hello! I have done the pro football pick-em for a while now across various platforms. My current league migrated to Yahoo! a few years ago. The Yahoo! product is vastly inferior to CBS. Yahoo! is all drop downs to set the confidence, where CBS, you can drag everything. On CBS, I can see a team I want to set as my 16 and drag them to the top and it automatically sets it at 16. Yahoo! takes significantly longer to set and is much more confusing. I have to select each team's confidence, and Yahoo! keeps them in the same…
