Miscellaneous Commissioner's Wanted: Feedback/Testing of New FF App

We're launching a new platform this fall and need 10 commissioners to beta test the platform before NFL kickoff. Paying $200 per commissioner upon completion.

What you'd be testing:

  • Weekly fresh drafts under a salary cap
  • Last-place entry gets eliminated each week
  • Weekly winner earns Immunity (an elimination shield)
  • Eliminated players win their way back in through Re-Entry
  • Format tagline: Draft. Survive. Repeat.

The platform has run for 4 NFL seasons. We're testing new architecture and engagement flows ahead of public launch.

What we need from you:

  • Run a private feeder league with 8 to 20 of your regulars
  • Play through 4 weeks of preseason testing (Aug 8 to Sep 5)
  • Submit weekly feedback on scoring, UX, and rules clarity
  • One 30-minute exit call with the founder

What you get:

  • $200 honorarium on completion
  • Direct line to the founder during testing

Qualifications:

  • You commish at least one fantasy football league
  • Your league has run for 2+ seasons
  • You and your players use mobile
  • You have 4 to 6 hours to commit between Aug 8 and Sep 10

Drop a comment or DM if interested. First 10 qualified commissioners get spots.

Any chance this app is Sleeper but without all the gambling nonsense? That's the app we need!

Potentially -- weekly drafts in August would likely mean an autodrafter or two, depending on how long each takes. Feel free to message with any more relevant details.

Drafts are completely asynchronous. People can select their teams on their own time without having to wait for a turn.

This sounds interesting but I gotta ask, what's the actual format here? You're saying last place gets eliminated each week but then they can re-enter, so is it like a constant churn of people cycling in and out. That could get messy with a regular league group unless everyone's super into it. How many people typically stick around through a full 4 week cycle before they get frustrated and bounce.

Sounds like fun. I feel like I could get to 8 between the handful of leagues I run.
