For Commissioners > Setup > Adjust Scores And Standings > Victory Points Setup |
Use this screen to define the victory "VP" points for your league. These are optional points used primarily to minimize the luck factor in fantasy football.
The first option is for wins, ties and losses for each franchise. Generally each fantasy win is worth 2 VPs, tie worth 1 VP, and lost worth 0 VPs
There is also an option to award VP's based on overall fantasy scores each week. These VP's by default will be in a 3 Bucket system where the top, middle, and bottom third are also (by default) awarded 2, 1, and 0 VPs. Commissioners can, however, use this screen to change the value of victory points for your league.
Leagues can choose to award the Top and Bottom Half overall fantasy scores each week by changing the "Number of Buckets for Victory Point Weekly Total" to 2. Then you can define the points awarded for the top scoring half and the bottom half.
NOTE: In the case of a tie crossing a tier boundary, the two tied teams both receive the higher point value.
When the number of teams is not evenly divisible by three, the middle tier will have the greatest number of teams and the top and bottom tiers will be evenly distributed. Use this table to see how victory points tiers are defined for some of the more common sizes of leagues.

Once you've decided to use VP for your league, you must also go to the Standings Columns Setup screen to enable the VP column in your standings report.
NOTE: While VP is supported in deluxe leagues, the tiered victory points are defined across the entire league, and not broken down by conference or division.
When finished, you MUST click on the Save Victory Points Setup button in order to apply your changes.
