When a player doesn't block a creature with double strike, he receives 2x the damage. Fine.
When a player blocks a creature with double strike, he receives no damage?
What happens if I block a 5/5 double strike/trample guy with a Mogg Fanatic? How much damage do I get when I sacrifice and when I don't sacrifice the goblin?
From what I understand, if blockers disappear, the trampling creature deals all of its damage to me, right?

We use the Legacy B&R list.
My meta consists of combo, control and some aggro / midrange decks.
My group uses proxies, so budget is not an issue. Because of this, things can get out of hand.

This is correct though note damage is dealt in 2 events so anything triggers of damage twice will trigger twice.

Correct the creature is blocked so will not deal any damage to the player.

If the mogg fanatic is not sacrificed you will deal 1 damage to it in the first strike damage step destroying it, you may then assign 4 to the defending player/planeswalker then in the normal combat step you will assign the full 5 damage to the player.
If the Mogg is sacrificed the full 5 damage is dealt to the defending player/planeswalker in both steps.

The important detail to remember is that blockers are assigned to attackers once per combat, but damage is assigned to creatures (or, in case of trample, to the defending player) in each of the two combat damage steps separately: attackers and blockers that are not in combat any more at the beginning of the non-first strike combat damage step (usually because they died of first strike damage) cannot be assigned further damage.
