Posted Nov 10, 2019 at 6:30 PM Our survivor league had one buyback until week 8. (so basically two lives). But this week all ten players lost, but only the 5 players that didn't use the buyback remain, instead of all 10 coming back.
Settings problem or did I miss something?

It looks like your settings are likely not what you wanted. Fort starters you do not have buybacks enabled. You have to have a buyback cost to enable buybacks. But even if you had buybacks enabled, all those with the prior loss would have been eliminated this week. So there would have been 5 left regardless.

so really there's no real way to have a life (or a buyback) until week 8...then moving forward everyone is one and done?

If you enable buybacks, the last butyback week is the last week they can do a buyback. After the last buyback week its one and done for everyone. However, you never had buybacks enabled, so the last buyback week is meaningless in your settings. To enable buybacks, you have to enter a buyback cost. Its unfortunately too late for your league.
