You didn't ask for it, but I still listened (to the voices). Welcome to SHL Fantasy... Fantasy. SHL Fantasy² for short. This is a project that @hotdog and I brainstormed and we're going to try to roll it out this offseason.

So, what is SHL Fantasy Fantasy League? The basic premise is that participants will be drafting SHL Fantasy members into their own SHL Fantasy² roster and compete with 7 other people in their group for the highest-scoring roster of SHL Fantasy rosters. Instead of skaters, you'll be drafting SHL Fantasy members and instead of goalies you'll be drafting SHL Fantasy group managers. SHL Fantasy members will contribute their total SHL Fantasy roster score, while SHL Fantasy group manager will contribute the average of the highest and lowest roster scores in their group (we'll call this mid-range score). For this first season, there will be no swaps as the technical aspect of automating such a feature frankly requires more work than I want to do right now.

So the gist of this is that we'll operate a fantasy league for another fantasy league for a simulation involving hypothetical players presumably digitally swinging sticks at each other while sliding on cyber-ice. There's no telling how many layers of imagination are at play here. You don't have to pay any of your simulation bucks, this is just for fun.

This is like a beta test of the league in that some shit doesn't work and generally has the potential for bugs... I mean features. Please bear with us through our difficult times.

I will be starting a sign-ups thread in conjunction with this one so be on the lookout for that if you would like to join (posted here). One thing to note is that drafting will be on a 2 hr timer instead of the OG Fantasy's 18 hrs. Below is the relevant excerpt from the rule book:
This is just a fancy, computer friendly way of saying once you're allowed to pick you can technically make it any time, but the next person can make theirs if you wait too long.

Happy fantasies²!
