This used to be a fantasy league classic, but since the game went online, it doesn't seem to be used that often.
What I'm talking about is a consolation bracket where the *loser* of each head-to-head matchup advances in the bracket. Essentially, it's a "Biggest Loser" playoffs.
I would love to see this supported in Fleaflicker. I would imagine it as a toggle menu setting:
Consolation Bracket Settings
[ ] Winner Advance - teams with the highest score in their head-to-head games advance
[*] Loser Advance - teams with the lowest score in their head-to-head games advance
Adding another voice to the chorus. This should have happened by now. We came over from ESPN for the customizability of FF but this is very important to our league and may end up being a dealbreaker.
Right now the workaround would be to do it manually - we did address it in our Owner's Manual for you and others:
Can I set up a “toilet bowl”?
A “toilet bowl” is a playoff tournament where the losers advance. There's no explicit support for this, but the commissioner can manually advance the loser every week by going to League >> Settings >> Edit Past Box Score.
:( Fleaflicker seems incredible slow at updating is features. Every thing is "in the works but not a priority". I appreciate your persistence sir and I do hope they add the toilet bowel feature soon

Bump. Would definitely like to see this happen.

Another year, another bump of this post. It's gotten so big! It's starting second grade this fall.

We hope to eventually have this automatic, but it's not on the imminent agenda right now, but is on there.

It's been 2 years since this reply, so I'm going to raise the flag for this one again.
Toilet Bowl / "Sacko" is an institution in fantasy football. Manual loser advance is a less than ideal workaround.

This would be so helpful to have it implemented. I doubt it was ever actually in their agenda lol.

Every offseason now, I search for "toilet bowl" updates on Fleaflicker, and every year, I inevitably just find my own post. :(
LegionSBWed 3/27/13 10:30 PM
But seriously, this idea is a core part of fantasy football culture. Hence the "Sacko" in the TV series, "The League".

Another year passed. Any chance of getting this feature added?
