Let your league vote on the last-place punishment
Picking the last-place punishment is half the fun of a fantasy league, and the arguing can last all season. Put the ideas in a Rankd and send it to the league chat. Every manager ranks them, and the winner is locked in before anyone knows who’s finishing last.

Questions
When should we vote?
Before the season or early in it, so nobody knows who it will apply to.
Can people see how I ranked?
No. Each person’s order stays private. Everyone sees the group’s final order and where they personally landed, never anyone else’s individual ranking.
Is it free? Does everyone need the app?
Rankd is free and runs in the browser, so there is nothing to download. Friends open the link from any group chat (iMessage, WhatsApp, Slack, email) and rank in about a minute.
