Alternate Realities
What-If
Re-run each season under different rules.
Scoring Systems — same lineups, different scoring
Full PPR reproduces the league's real recorded scoring exactly (to the point); half PPR and standard then remove 0.5 and 1.0 points per reception, using the lineups each manager actually started. Regular season only. PF = points for.
If No Trades Happened
Median Format — beat the weekly median for a bonus win
Each week you play your scheduled opponent and the league median score. Win both for 2-0, split for 1-1. Rewards consistent scoring and removes schedule luck. Records are out of double the games.
All-Play Record — each week vs the entire league
Every week you play all other teams at once — a win for each team you outscore. This strips out schedule luck entirely, so it's the fairest read on week-to-week scoring. Records are out of many games (weeks × opponents), regular season only.
Best Ball — optimal lineup every week
Standings if every manager auto-started their optimal lineup each week (no start/sit decisions), using real per-player league scoring, replayed against the actual schedule. Pure roster strength — the gap vs actual is start/sit skill (or luck).
Playoff Seeding by Record — no divisions or conferences
By Record = seed if seeded purely on record · League Seed = actual (division winners get top seeds)
Δ ▲ = climbs under record seeding · ◆ = division winner
Blue line = playoff cutoff.
