Also- bombing in the toilet bracket doesn’t change the regular season finish. I use the last week of the regular FF season to determine the bottom 6 teams lotto position.

Bomb away.

No I want his ball!!!!

so, how does the Lottery work exactly?

12 place gets 40 balls
11th gets 25
10th gets 15
9th gets 9
8th gets 7
7th gets 4?

it's a weighted lottery for sure right?

dude it's not rocket science to understand that a weighted lottery is supposed to favor the worst team at a much higher percentage than the 7th place team. By only having 1 more ball than the next worst team doesn't offer a significant lottery advantage.

To be more mathematical, the percentage of a weighted lottery should equal 100%

In this scenario of 6 teams it goes as such:
40
25
15
9
7
4 balls
= 100

Apparently in GOAT it goes like this:
6
5
4
3
2
1
=21

as you can see from the numbers listed above in a TRUE weighted lottery the last place team has a 10/1 advantage over the 7th place team, whereas in GOAT the advantage is 6/1. The weight is not properly distributed therefor creating incorrect odds. It's all about probabilities, statistics.

This should be corrected

Nah current system is fine. Pretty standard actually. Chances decrease by about 5% each place.

@Jwill1919 if you spent as much time winning me the extra ball as you do complaining about the league I’d be in good shape

0pts from Keenan Allen before getting hurt. Excellent start for my team in the semis.

If you really want the best team that doesn’t make the playoffs to almost assuredly get the 1.1 pick, then you don’t understand why it’s set up like this in the first place.

The lotto system removes the bombs away mentality from the non playoff teams.

Of course, everything can be changed with enough votes.

This is a confusing statement
