Sending Yahoo an Email

[rjfisher83]

Does anyone have a link for how I can send an email to Yahoo reporting an issue (standings are incorrect in the league I commish). Everything I try to follow just takes me to a useless FAQ page.

Nevermind, found it.

Where did you find it? I remember the last time I looked it was A LOT harder than it used to be.

It is a lot harder than it should be: http://io.help.yahoo.com/contact/ind...Y&page=contact

Make sure your sub-category is NOT "my issue does not appear in the list" as you will not be given the option to email a support agent. That's the problem I was having.

Did you get it straightened out? I am curious what issue you noticed and if I should be looking closer into the standings in my leagues.

Yeah, I did. Long story short, I was wrong. Yahoo was doing it correctly.

For those that care (all, maybe, one of you):

My league has four division with three teams each. Each division winner gets one of the top four seeds for the playoffs and the other four spots are wildcard.

The division in question went like this:

Team A: 10-1-0 (2-0-0 in division) with 2564.35 fantasy points = 1st seed
Team B: 5-6-0 (0-2-0 in division) with 2374.40 fantasy points = 7th seed
Team C: 5-6-0 (1-1-0 in division) with 2268.00 fantasy points = 8th seed

My issue was with the placement of Team B and Team C. I felt that because of the division winning percentages (.500 for Team C and .000 for Team B), Team C should actually be the 7 seed and Team B get the 8 seed.

Yahoo's Regular Season tiebreakers stated this:

If, at the end of the season, two or more teams in a division finish with the same overall record, the following system will be used to decide the division winner:

1. Overall winning percentage.
2. Division winning percentage.
3. Total Points (Head to Head - Points leagues only)

If you notice, I highlighted the word "winner" in that phrase. That's because I noticed that word later AFTER I had already contacted Yahoo. This scenario was not a case for deciding the division winner because Team A was the clear division winner. This scenario called for Yahoo's tiebreaker of:

If, at the end of the season, the two (or more) division winners or any wild card teams finish with the same overall record, the following system will be used to break the tie:

1. Overall winning percentage.
2. Total Points. (Head to Head - Points leagues only)

And Team B had more fantasy points than Team C. So Yahoo was correct. I was wrong. Bad me.
