Raps Forum Keeper League Season Five

[RapsFan]

I've started a new thread to keep important information at the start of the thread so it's easy to find.

We have 11 returning GMs. BRabbit is our newest member! We currently are looking for one more new GM to round out the 13 man league.

I will post the rules as well as last year's keepers. All players listed will have the 50% rule apply to them.

Keeper Rules

1. 4 Keepers based on your end of season roster

2. Keeper 'cost' in year 2 based on draft round value of player in previous season (except for keepers)

3. If you keep a keeper player for a second time 'cost' goes up by 50%, rounded up.

4. You CAN keep two players from the same round. One player will use one round higher's slot.

5. You can KEEP a first round pick 2 times, before they are cut loose. This means if you draft LBJ, you get him this year (year of draft), next year, and then also a third year. If you acquire a first round pick, you can KEEP him twice.

6. Waivers (non drafted) are kept using the 11th round

[RapsFan]

Let the questions begin. If you know your keepers, PM me them. If you can't view your last year's roster, let me know and I will send it to you (throught the fantasy site). If you have questions about what round someone is let me know. You can view last year's draft though through your fantasy profile.

No rush on the keepers as there hasn't been any FA activity.

[Chamberlain]

Had to create a new profile, so I can't see my team from last year.

[Chamberlain]

Also, who are the other posters who want to join?

[RapsFan]

Ok Kmart, chamberlain and t-low I have sent you your rosters from last year. Was there anyone else that needed them except for new GMs? If anyone needs confirmation on a keeper round then let me know. Also if people have sure fire keepers regardless if what happens in free agency, let me know if you want so I can start getting them sorted out.


So we are looking for one more GM. Not sure how many non members will view this thread but if you are wanting to join, state your case!

[FCardelle]

I am a fan of strategy games in general and have some experience in fantasy leagues. I will not only be active, I'll play to win.
And I'll trade for your European players

I should have known you would go for all the Euro players!

[Chamberlain]

I'm more than okay with FCardelle as the 14th GM. Quality poster, usually active, has been asking to join for quite some time (shows interest).

I think RapsFan should have the final say, since it's his league, but that's my two cents.

[RapsFan]

More then satisfied with FC as a poster, my only thought though is how experience you are in fantasy basketball, especially Roto. I know the Euro thing was a joke, but random stuff like that can really screw up the outcome of a league (again, I know it was a joke).

[Dr.Funk]

As soon as they give a final ruling on these players in China I can send my keepers in.

[RapsFan]

If people want to send keepers, go for it. What I will do is give everyone a chance to make changes if something happens during free agency before our draft etc.

I played a couple of roto leagues. If I remember correctly I finished in second place in one of them.

I'm waiting for free agency to determine one of my keepers.....

[RAPSCANWIN]

Im in the same boat as Zan, im going to wait for a little bit to give my keepers.
