Join the Skeleton Crew Fantasy League!

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the Skeleton Crew Fantasy League – a thrilling fusion of two pastimes: Fantasy Sports and Skeleton Crew!

In an average sports fantasy league, athletes score points each game for hitting a homerun or throwing a touchdown pass. In the Skeleton Crew Fantasy League, characters score points for in-show accomplishments like igniting a lightsaber, entering hyperspace, or using the Force.

BUILDING A TEAM

Building your team is a breeze! With 30 League characters spread across 10 groups, you have a variety of options to choose from.

Select one character from each group.
Send an e-mail with your team name and player selections (one character per group – 10 total) with the subject line “Skeleton Crew” to fantasyleaguegeek@gmail.com before the premiere of Skeleton Crew on December 2, 2024.
Please include your guess for the total run-time (in minutes and seconds) of the Skeleton Crew season one finale.

Limit one entry per e-mail address.

In case of a tie, the team with the highest single-episode score will win. If there’s still a tie, the team with the 2nd (then 3rd through 8th, if necessary) highest single-episode score will be the winner. If two or more teams are identical, the team that guesses closest to the total run-time of the season one finale will be the winner.

Fantasy League Geek will keep you in the loop with regular updates after each episode, including current standings, scores, and more!

SCORING POINTS

Points will be awarded or deducted according to the categories below.

Fantasy League Geek will be the final judge in all scoring decisions.

Anything occurring in a “Previously on Skeleton Crew” recap segment at the beginning of an episode does not count for points, nor does anything seen in concept art or credits at the end. Only the events occurring within the episode (after the helmet montage and before “Created by Christopher Ford and Jon Watts” appears in the star field) will count for points.

ATTENDANCE POINTS

APPEARS IN AN EPISODE (+1 point)

League characters who appear in an episode are awarded 1 point. They must be physically present or appear in a hologram or still image to receive these points.

APPEARS AS A HOLOGRAM (+2 points)

League characters appearing on screen as holograms will be awarded 2 points.

APPEARS IN POST-CREDIT SCENE (+3 points)

In the event of a post-credit scene, an exception to the ‘within the episode’ rule will be implemented. Any character appearing in a post-credit scene (i.e., The Book Of Boba Fett tease in Chapter 16 of The Mandalorian) will be awarded 3 points. Post-credit scenes will not be eligible to earn ‘First’ or ‘Final’ points. They will be awarded points based on all other actions, visits, encounters, etc.
