00:00 Intro
05:17 How do you suggest we late swap in NBA with 15 between each game?
08:46 I noticed this week on NFL that my ROI & Uniques were good, but the Sim Avg Score was pretty poor across the board - not sure why this is and how to improve it.
10:50 What is a good "minimum volume" threshold for Ultimate members?
15:49 Let's say I run a Build along with running a Contest Sim and I send the lineups I like to favorites. Once I have all of those lineups in favorites, is it safe to re-run Sims, diversify, and fill my lineups with either Direct/Autofill?
18:25 Would you please explain percentiles more?
21:56 How can I be successful on FD showdowns?
22:54 Is unique random getting phased put, as I do not see as many examples of using it anymore or are there still any edges for still using it, like e.g. on auto-fill?
24:32 Can you explain in NBA why sims are giving us such crazy amounts of less than 10 percent owned players?
38:55 How do I use SaberSim for NBA single stats slates?
39:52 What do you think about maxing the min uniques that allow all lineups to be positive ROI and then sending those lineups to the Favorites tab. Then from the Favorites tab, run multiple contest sims to see if it remains positive no matter which sample of sims are used to determine how many min uniques to use?
41:59 Is it possible to select all of the different ownership fields at once to compare and contrast the different stakes?
44:15 How many lineups can I save in the favorites tab?
