No kicker is a clone of the fantasy football app no kicker, and it includes many of the functions necessary for a fantasy football app.
Users are allowed to create their own leagues and can specify some of the rules of the league, such as how many teams there are and whether or not the league is public.
Leagues are provided with default scoring and roster rules, and matchups are generated so that teams play each other not more than twice during the season. Matchups are automatically generated on the creation of the final team.
Players can create teams that are either public or have invited them. In the current implementation, users can begin picking up players for their team immediately, however the goal would be to lock player pick ups until the draft has occurred once draft functionality is implemented.
Team lineups are managed on the team's show page, where each player's listing has a dropdown menu that reflects the possible roster slots that a user can allocate to that player. Additionally, players can be dropped from this page.
When adding players from the player index, the transaction occurs immediately if the user's current team has an open roster spot. If this is not the case, then they are directed to a page where they can choose which player to drop in order to make space, making the add/drop in one step.
The players index can be dynamically searched by player name as well as filtered by player position. In the future I intend to also make this index filterable by whether or not they are already on a team in a given league.
Users can offer trades to other users in their league, as well as responding to those offered to them. If trades involve players who are then cut or given in another trade, the trade offer is deleted from the database.
When the week is incremented, teams are scored based on the current starting lineup and team wins and losses are calculated from these scored.
Users can create and respond to threads in their league message boards.
