Waiting List


WML
-Official Rules-

Game Settings –
Quarter Length - 8-10 Minutes (W/Accelerated Clock)
Difficulty - All Pro (could move to All-Madden)


Team Management - (Free Agency, Trading, Drafting, Depth Chart/Position Changes)


Free Agency System
Qualify for Bidding- Any team that wishes to bid on a player in the Free Agent Pool must qualify under these conditions:
1.Have enough cap room at the time of bidding
2.Have reasonable amount of players at said position (No need for 4 QBs or 7 WRs)
3.Place Bid in official Bidding Forum

Bidding Rules – Any team looking to sign a player must have at least enough cap room to sign the player. A team may designate as many of their cap points towards a single player as they wish. However, once those cap points are spent they will not be permitted to sign another free agent unless.
·A player is lost to injury and the team is below minimum requirements (will require dropping a player and picking up a player rated no higher than the player dropped).

Bidding Forum – An official league forum for bidding will be put up on the official League Page on EASports.com. (If there are no forums available we will use the WML Forums).
·Qualifying Free Agency Teams will be asked to bid over a time period of 3 days (this may change).

How To Bid –
·Create a thread with the players name and position (Derrick Brooks, LB)
·First post should be your team name, cap room and bid amount
(Bengals, Cap Room = 236, Bid = 123)
·Each qualifying team will have a chance to bid on that player until the Free Agency Period ends. (This will be a set day and time with no late bids being counted)
·The final highest qualifying bid will result in said team acquiring the player.

In-Season Offers –
·Once the season begins and injuries start to pile up there will be a first come first serve policy for free agents.
·Salary Cap will still be in full effect
·You must contact the Commissioner in order to go through with the signing of said player.

I have decided against multi-year ‘contracts’ for now simply because I think the system above will work out fine without mandatory cuts of players for any reason other than cap space and league interest.

Trades
Trading between user teams will be open for every team. The commissioner will reserve the right to call a league vote on any trade that may seem unfair for any party. The entire league will have the ability to vote yes or no to a proposed trade which the Commissioner decides.

Player Trades (w/CPU)
Deca-Range Rules –
All players must add up to the same total amount of rating points and be rated in the same ‘Tens spot’. This only occurs when a human team wishes to propose a trade with a CPU team.

TEAM 1 = 255
Player
Rating
Player X
97
Player Y
85
Player Z
73

TEAM 2 = 255
Player A
98
Player B
84
Player C
73
OK_______________

Personal Conduct –
GAMEPLAY (Vs. Human AND CPU)
League Etiquette – These are up for discussion prior to the start of each season.
Cheesing/Cheap Tactics – (Case by case basis)
May result in expulsion from the league if necessary.
Running Up The Score (Winning by over 49 points)
Vs. CPU – Will result in a forced simulated game against next CPU opponent.
Vs. Human – Will result in a forced non-play against next TWO (2) human opponents.


DEDICATION
If you are not available to play your games, please just let the commissioner know so we can remove you without any hard feelings.


BEHAVIOR/SPORTSMANSHIP
Verbal Abuse
Any accusations of verbal abuse will result in a warning. If there are any more issues after said warning the player will be expelled from the league.
Hacking/Trying to Circumvent League Rules
Immediate suspension and possible expulsion.
Forum Abuse/Trolling
Immediate suspension and possible expulsion.

Scheduling –
If your opponent does not show up for a scheduled game please let the commissioner know so he can auto-pilot your opponent and you can play the CPU instead.

If you don’t let the commissioner know about scheduling problems you may not get the chance to play your game and it will be simmed as the week is advanced.

Opening Day - We will be starting league play on Wednesday, August 19.

Week Advance – We will advance to the next week between Midnight on August 22nd and 4 PM August 23rd. The next advance will be Midnight on Wednesday August 26.

·Drafted players may only be traded for other Drafted players 1:1 ratio (must be picked in the same round).

vTrading Picks (un-used Draft Picks) During the Draft
ØHuman teams may only do this if they are present for the draft.
ØOnly human teams may take part in During-Draft Trades (unless participants agree otherwise).
ØTrading up in any round will require the inclusion of a team’s next round pick. (1st and 2nd for a better 1st Rd Pick… 3rd and 4th for a better 3rd Rd Pick, etc.)

Re: Any interest in a 21+ Working Man's League?

I would definitely be interested. I have played in a number of leagues and have found that the best ones have mature, dedicated, sim players. Please add me to the list.

Would love to be the Browns, Panthers, Bucs, or Cardinals.

I'd like to request the Packers. I haven't been able to get my team in any league yet, so this might be my chance.
