I know I’m technically in the men’s one but missing this league today for some reason😭😭 it’s too long until the season starts! trojansc saying the season starts August 30th made my stomach drop, that’s soooo far when will admin be picked? That is because mens volleyball is boring ...

I'm still interested in a role as a participating or non-participating admin. I'm currently getting over a small bout of depression/anxiety over winter break, which tripped me up, but I'm getting back up to speed here.

I dunno what the playerverse is going to ultimately look like next year, but looking at vballfreak808's transfer database, there are a lot of players taking their covid year.

I wanna know the playerverse and whether or not we get a keeper!

I wanna know the playerverse and whether or not we get a keeper! Well, it's only February . That's ridiculously early to start making set rules for next year. I do think there was enough interest in being able to keep a returning player. I think the only thing that will need to be ironed out is the *penalty* for doing so, and how to incorporate players who didn't play in the champions league last year. I liked my proposal of essentially if you pre-designate your #1 draft pick from a player from your team the prior year, the teams that don't pre-designate a player get to pick in the second round before you. I could go either way whether new players get randomly assigned a left over team to potentially pre-designate from or not given the option at all. At the end of the day, all those players from those particular teams will be eligible to be drafted in the first round anyway, so if a new player wanted them, they'd be able to get them in the first round, and the rule as a whole, whether you get to pre-designate a specific player for the first round or get to pick in the second round before all the teams that pre-designate, every team in the league has a shot at getting two of the 28 most desired players in the first two rounds.

ay2013 don’t want to take up space on the thread but that’s my early idea too. basically if me, you, and trojansc decided we wanted a keeper, we’d randomly be assigned picks #1-3 and then everyone else would be randomly assigned the rest. our picks would obviously be the keepers and then when we snake, we have the last picks of round 2. I think that’s completely fair. someone suggested that 2-round snake and then randomizing the order for the third round and then snaking that order the rest of the draft but that seems extra lol obviously you wouldn’t know how many other people decided to use a keeper. I imagine we’d need a third party for that (probably avid 2.0 since I doubt we can convince him to play lol)

To be clear, my proposal is that the we pre-designate a player before the draft order is known. The draft is what it is but for the second round, where, all of the teams that pre-designate, pick at the end of the second round (but still in order of when they'd draft in the second around anyway). After that (3rd round and beyond), the draft functions normally.

I just meant like literal room from quoting but I see what your suggestion is now. not sure I have a strong preference between what you said and I said… think I might prefer yours.

I wanna know the playerverse and whether or not we get a keeper! Yeah, I wouldn't mind getting the ball rolling on this, even though it's still pretty early. I've expressed interest to be an admin for next season. I'm not sure who else is interested?

There hasn't really been a formal selection process for admins in the past, but I don't think it would be a bad idea to have a general "Volunteer→Endorse/Oppose" type system. 🤷♂️

Just thought I'd bump this thread. Summer will be here before we know it. At this point, I'm kind of planning on being an admin, unless others have something arranged already. Thought I'd start laying some of the groundwork. Here's a list of some of the potential rule changes, issues, proposals from this thread. It's not a complete list, so I'm sorry if I missed something or someone. Rules pertaining to game play • Number of matches per week (2 matches per week vs. 1 match per week, etc.)
• Wild card player (each player gets to draft ANY player from ANY D1 team)
• Full Rosters (14, 16, 18, 20 players on full roster)
• Active Rosters (10, 12, etc. on weekly Active Roster)
• Number of ANYs (If full roster increases: more, same, less number of ANYs on weekly Active Roster)
→ If larger full roster and/or larger active roster: Include additional Position requirements? (e.g. require 3 middles, 2 liberos, etc.)
• Retain player from previous year (yes or no)
→ How would this work? (Omit 2nd Rd. pick? Omit 1st Rd. pick? Omit Final Rd. pick? etc.)
• Add/Drops (Unlimited through Week 2 or 3, Unlimited through non-conference)
→ Number of Add/Drops after unlimited period (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)
• Freshman rule (Require a freshman on Active Rosters bi-weekly? Yes or no)
• Standings scoring system (Overall record, head-to-head, sets record, points system)
→ Tiebreaker method
• Type of Format (per set, per match, raw total)
• Injured Reserve (IR) rule (Designate player as IR in case of unexpected injury, and no sets played)
• Player Selection (AVCA Top 100, Power 4 plus a few non-power leagues, etc.)
• Sub-ins (highest ranked sub of same position vs. highest ranked sub regardless of position)
• 3rd party roster submissions
• Roster submission errors (e.g. Member includes player on active roster who doesn't play that week)
→ Allow correction vs. Responsibility of the member
• Include/exclude Monday matches (Tuesday through Sunday vs. Tuesday through Monday)
→ Windows for Active Roster submissions
• Players who play multiple positions (e.g. S/OPP)
→ Create exceptions for a max of 4.5 setters, 6.5 outsides, etc.
Other Notes • Invitations
→ Last year's admins: ay2013 , Kingsley , vballfan17 → Last year's Top 3: eazy , uofaGRAD , vballfreak808
→ Challengers league: wcdiggs
→ At large bids (≈7 not including current admins; ≈4 including current admins)
• Administrator participation (participate vs. non-participating vs. exhibition)
• Vote on referenda
• Vote on awards (Fantasy POY, Fantasy FOY, Fantasy All-American team, etc.)
• Results spreadsheet huskerpower
• Rounding (Round to 2nd decimal, round to 3rd decimal in weekly play)
• Number of members (14 vs. 16)

vup, just so there is no confusion, only the winner of the challengers league (wcdiggs) would have a reserved spot in the champions league, not top 3, though I for sure think Texasfight and volleyfan8288 would be engaged participants.
