BB.1 Inactivity
a. Common Courtesy - We ask all owners to practice common courtesy to your fellow owners.
b. Responding to Communication- Two things: By being a part of this league each owner is required to respond to every trade proposal, email or PM within a timely fashion. Ignoring communications from fellow owners is not acceptable. If a trade offer is sent and you don't want to accept it, you must at least respond by declining the proposal within 72 hours. Countering with an offer of your own is optional, however, a timely response is mandatory. I've been in leagues where a lot of owners barely respond to trade offers and they let them expire. This will NOT be one of those leagues.
c. A 10 GP penalty will be applied to teams that ignore trade proposals beyond the 72 hour deadline. 3 occurrence's within a 12 month period is grounds for removal from the league without monetary refunds. Commish will have the final say in this. Please email the commish with the trade details (team name and date offer was sent if a team has violated rule BB.1.b).
d. Failure to submit a lineup for any given week will result in the commish starting their previous weeks lineup for them and the offending team will receive a 25 GP penalty. If a player is on bye, the commish will substitute the player with the highest yearly point total for them. If a team fails to submit a lineup a 2nd time within a 12 month period, the commish will again set a lineup for them (based on the above criteria) and the offending team will receive a 50 GP penalty. A 3rd penalty for not submitting a lineup will result in a 100 GP penalty and a leaguewide vote to remove said team from the league. A 4th offense (if the team is still in the league )will result in an automatic removal from the league. Being kicked out of the league either via a 3rd or 4th offense will result in that team forfeiting their league deposit.
e. Each team is required to have their email set up so trade proposals DO get sent to their inbox when a proposal is made and each team must have their email available on their team page to allow other owners to freely contact them with league business/proposals.
f. League Polls - Your vote is very important. When a poll is opened to the league (by the commissioner) you are expected to vote.
g. This league was designed for the best and most active of fantasy footballers. Inactivity will not be tolerated. Please read the following notes:
Deadlines - We all lead busy lives. Deadlines will be posted and followed to the second, even in extreme cases.
Message Board Etiquette - You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this bulletin board to post any material which is knowingly false and/or defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, threatening, invasive of a person’s privacy, or otherwise in violation of any law.
BB.2 Conflicts and Disputes
a. The league commissioner will have final say on any ruling to settle conflicts and/or disputes. If there is an issue please send a private email to the commish.
BB.3 Rule Changes
a. As the league develops, changes are bound to happen.
b. All franchises are encouraged to submit to the league commissioner changes they would like incorporated into the league.
c. The requests will be reviewed by the commissioner. The commissioner has final say on what gets voted on and what doesn't. If the commish allows a vote for a rule change, approval by 75% of the voting teams is required for a change to occur.
d. All changes will not take place until the following season unless voted on by the league
BB.4 Stat Changes
a. The results reported after the final game including any stats changes made up till the start of the next week’s first game of the week will be the final results for the NFL. Any stat changes occurring after this time will not be incorporated into the final results of the league.
