00:00 Intro
01:27 If we are playing less than 10 lineups in a large field GPP should we focus more on ownership or projections and the upside of our players?
06:44 Since field lineups for the contest sims are 20k lineups, do you think that they sufficiently account for dupes in contests less than 20k entrants for the ROI calculation?
11:35 I was hoping you could provide some guidance on how to set up a rule that ensures I have a certain number of low-owned players in my lineups. For instance, if I wanted to guarantee that each lineup contains at least three players with ownership under 10%, could you walk me through how you would approach this?
19:18 On a typical NFL slate, let’s say after the 1pm games your lineups are doing poorly, and not likely to win. If you run late swaps before for the 4pm games, in theory, it will swap some players to more volatile low-owed players to salvage some min cashes. Do you think after the slate is all done, this would lead your lineups to grade out worse in post-contest sims?
23:10 Can u do an NFL showdown and main slate build?
33:15 If you set a rule do you have to set the rule every slate?
