00:00 Intro
02:05 How can we tell what players got a fantasy score update?
05:50 If we are playing a small field goo how do we change the settings so the builder builds for the correct contest we are entering
08:28 What does the term value player mean?
12:00 If the simulations shouldn’t be manipulated like an optimizer with rules and player pools, then how should they be adjusted? What factors should we focus on? How many times should we run simulations in SaberSim to achieve optimal results, and is there a point where running more simulations yields diminishing returns?
18:47 For NBA DFS late swaps is it recommended to check the option to force the original lineup?
22:50 Is a 0-10 build still a thing to see what the optimal players are for the slate?
24:01 If you filter lineups into trash and then run a contest sim against that build as your field will the contest sim still include the trashed lineups or is it just running against the whole pool?
25:36 How to come up with the best studs and build a more balanced lineup?
29:20 Should I change the min. uniques when using the autofill option?
31:26 If I make a rule stating I want no more than one unconfirmed player in a lineup, will that make the simulator only pick from teams that have confirmed lineups or will it still consider projected starters from later games?
33:45 How make a rule to use no more than 2 players under a salary of 3500?
