TST Fantasy Golf 2016

[Avalanche]

I've tried signing out of yahoo, and signing in again.  In fact I tried clearing my browser and signing in.  The link  http://golf.fantasysports.yahoo.com  takes me through the process of-- setting up a new team--asks me to pick a team name, read the terms and conditions, etc.  Like I said above I've had quite a few yahoo fantasy teams over the years and never experienced anything like this before.   

At work tomorrow when I'm logged in to my team I'll cut and paste the url into an email and send it to myself, then try that url from hom.  Maybe that will work. /shrug 

 

btw, Sorry for cluttering up this thread with this.

Groups are set on Yahoo, so get your rosters in. In Hawaii again so times to have rosters set will be later than normal, but are still TBD on the Yahoo site. Good luck this week.

I figured out the problem.  I have an old, seldom used, junk mail yahoo account that I used a couple years ago to avoid getting junk-email at work.  I signed into TST last week from work by hitting the "sign in with Google" button.  When I did that it automatically signed me into that old yahoo junk mail account instead of my regular yahoo account.  (I guess my Google+ is associated with the old junkmail yahoo account.)  So now my lineup is associated with that junkmail yahoo account instead of the one I've used for fantasy teams for several years.   Oh well.  No biggie.

That was going to be my next suggestion, check the "User Name" On the TST league, you can go to "Members" and locate some info. It would show the E-mail contact which usually is the account holders setup. There's also the option to hide the contact info.

Glad your all set......

Thanks, my first ever "Trifecta" on bonus points in four seasons. Still didn't even come close to cracking the Top 50 of Yahoo Users. I recall  @Crim and @gogolfing  having honors to that plateau last season. Not sure how to see how TST group ranks among Yahoo other groups. Scott probably knows how? The TST group looks really strong this season, many new and old faces make for a fun season. Hope we get a little "Trash Talkin" this year, I'll start on my buddy Kyle in a few weeks to see if I can ruffle his feathers a little ..........

For those new to the fantasy golf site; you will want to go and check your lineup because unless you make a change your lineup from the prior week will be used again this week.

. I've forgotten a few times in past years, and it is really hard to score when 6 of your 8 players are not entered into this weeks event.

Just googled the Round 1 leaderboard thus far this week (in progress).

Leaderboard - Ongoing		R1	R2	R3	R4	Total	Thru
T1	Vijay Singh	-7	–	–	–	-7	18
T1	Ricky Barnes	-7	–	–	–	-7	18
T1	Morgan Hoffmann	-7	–	–	–	-7	18

T5	Jerry Kelly	-5	–	–	–	-5	18

T5	David Hearn	-5	–	–	–	-5	18
T5	Zac Blair	-5	–	–	–	-5	18

 

Can't imagine too many of us have these guys on our roster for the week. Totally different dynamic between one of these "off weeks" compared to last week's smaller and more exclusive field. Point totals will be a fraction of what they were, huh? Guess we gotta capitalize on those big weeks when we can.

Not sure how to see how TST group ranks among Yahoo other groups.

Anecdotally, I noticed during Tourney #1 that when I was about the TST 50-percentile after Round 3 (I think I was near 22/44 then), I was about 75-percentile for the overall Yahoo community. Then I had an awful round 4 and dropped to about TST 20-percentile, and I'm around 34-percentile for the overall.  It's early and meaningless probably, but for Tourney #1, TST's median and lower players likely did better than the overall median and lower players.

You can go into Yahoo settings and set up email reminders 1, 2 or 3 days before the start of the tournament. It has saved me a few times. 

As well, watch out...87 guys made the cut, so it is going to be a MDF week and there will be the secondary cut after today's round.

I'm off to a slow start...Justin Thomas and Chris Kirk MC so no A player for the weekend for me.

PBFU week for my guys. So much for the strategy of selecting players who's past performances at the Sony and usually solid in this event.

12 points was the lowest score I've ever had in a single round. Geez-Louwez .......

Same here.  I somehow dumbed myself into having Snedeker, so at least I'm getting some points.

[SavvySwede]

Took a real beating this week but I'll just chalk it up to the learning curve for now.

[Artbij]

I'm playing for the first time. I'm from europe and played the european tour fantasy league, but after a few months it always got less interesting. Hope I can keep playing this.

Whoo!  Top 40.  My fantasy team is much better than the music genre that shares a description.

 

Don't forget to set your roster for tomorrow.
