List of FD / DK contest types that we can implement

[BenBrostoff]

Anyone reading this - feel free to add here. These are generally pretty easy so PRs welcome. If you pick any of the below up, you need at a minimum:

• A test that shows a roster can be created
• A test that shows a working CSV uploader
• An addition to the README that shows the RuleSet name and any other relevant usage info if applicable

The list

• PGA (DK)
• NASCAR (DK)
• LoL (DK)
• NHL Tiers (DK)
• NBA Showdown (DK)
• NFL Showdown (DK)
• NHL Showdown (DK)
• Soccer Showdown (there's an example in the README) (DK)
• NFL Showdown (DK)
• FanDuel MVP Versions of the above

I'll take on NFL/NHL showdown and FanDuel MVP

Hijacking this to ask if we want to implement more lineup constraints than just lock/ban for tiers. IMO its not really worth the effort.

Also, we can implement the DK NFL tiers with the pickem code

@sharkiteuthis Going to grab NFL showdown to make a blueprint for the future. Some trickiness I'll address but obviously weigh in with opinions:

• Ability to lock in with the following preferences: 1) Player X as CPT, Player X as FLEX or Player X, let the optimizer decide the position
• Banning players (ban them period, ban them as captain or flex)

Don't think implementation is hard, it's more how should the public facing API look.

look at the feature branch i have for NFL showdown, it's mostly done.

the remaining items:

• add ban captains
• test group constraints for showdowns
• add showdown team filters
• test with exposure

[BenBrostoff]

Awesome, I’ll hold off

If you want to build on that branch, feel free, I won't be able to look at it again until at least tomorrow.

Cool, I'll take a look tonight and commit if I have anything good to add. Will open PR just so it's out there.
