Ok, so I'm making polls out of anything anyone suggested that we didn't vote down last year. Everyone should feel free to make their own new polls if I missed something. Here are thoughts on the issue from the discussion thread:
I like having the top 6 playoff system and I think the consolation round should be included again, that would at least give the bottom "X" players into the fun.
3.) You can't have a "consolation" round if you have a 6 team championship. That is one of the advantages of a 4 team playoff, which I prefer. 6 team playoffs see teams at 0.500 getting into the playoffs, and I think that makes the "regular season" of fantasy less important
3) I'm with Zera. 4 Teams. No league should have a setup whereby Playoff Teams >= (1/2) Total Teams. 4 or (1/3) of Total is a nicer number. We can start the playoffs later with this.
I definitely prefer 6. Makes for a more interesting playoffs and the playoff race is usually better.
4, because I had no business in any playoff at 7-6!
