Just signed up to a new one https://www.fantasychamp.com.au/.

Slightly different scoring system to anything else out there, thought I'd give it a go before it gets too many members and I can take some money off a few.  ;)

Wouldn't only the good people be on it early? The ones dedicated enough to know it exists haha?

Not necessarily, Moneyball participants were pretty rubbish to start with and now they've got a whole lot better, whether thats experience or just more members I'm not sure, but I figure the less ppl involved the greater chance of getting some coin back.

Your not wrong there. I used to win money at least every 2 games at start. Then started to get harder especially when young guns rose a bit in price And wasn't any bargains that noobs didn't know about. I just do the $2 ones now, other one too hard to pull off. Basically need to fluke a few roughies to pull it off.

Yeah I was doing the double ups mainly last year, but feel this year you've gotta be in it to win it, so will do a few double ups mixed with the big ones and hopefully I can snag at least 1 decent prize.  The Tbetta guy on DT Talk does pretty well, I always see his name up there on the leaderboard.

Yeah i came 22nd in one of the bigger ones on the weekend. Think it was saturday one. collected 55.

But upon looking through the names in there, i counted one dude having 10 sides!!! what the actual F! who creates 10 different sides for the same game day.. He wasnt the only one wither was seeing other with over 5 entries as well..

jvalles69

Yeah I've noticed multiple entries don't think its a bad strategy, pick the same cheapies you think will score well in all of them, then 1-2 premos who you'd captain in DT, then mix and match the leftover spots.  Guy in draftstars had the top 3 teams in the 5K comp and won 4K out of the possible 5K!  :o

Yeah... If you make 10 teams, your bound to hit a top 10 spot guaranteed and get your money back. Just not sure if it's fair if you can make that many teams ha. That's crazy!! Might start doing it myself ha!

I know certain moneyball tourneys only let you enter 1 team, but not sure what the limit with draftstars is?

I dont do draft stars. But i know money ball changed.. i think it used to be one, but now its clearly a lot more than one haah. More entries more $$$ for them i suppose.
