Once our payment stuff is sorted, you can start a league any time. If you start a $20 one now, you don’t have to pay us again until January, 2027.
What I would consider is posting to the Managers Wanted forum and see if you can put together a list of interested players for the league settings you suggested. I have a feeling for a season-long FG Points league with weekly lineups, you should not have a ton of issues filling it out, though most leagues do not do weekly lineups. Unpopular or under-served, I’m not sure which.
