Payment/Payout Service: We will be using www.teamstake.com At the end of the fantasy season, a majority vote (via teamstake) will determine payouts to the winners.
Divisions and Regular Season Schedule: The regular season will begin week 1 and run through the 14th week of the NFL season. There will be 3 divisions with 4 teams per division. Every team’s division placement is determined by the draft order once it is randomly generated. Picks 1-4 are in in Division 1, 5-8 Division 2, and 9-12 in Division 3. Each team plays their division opponents twice.
Playoffs: The playoffs will begin week 15 and run through week 17 of the NFL season. Six teams will qualify. The 2 division winners with the best records will receive the top 2 seeds and 1st round byes. The division winner with the worst record will receive the 3rd seed. If 2 or more teams have identical records, the tiebreaker will go to the team with the most total points.
Seeds 4, 5 and 6 (wild cards) will be awarded to the 3 teams with the most Total Points, regardless of record or division. The tiebreaker will be overall record.
Consolation Round (3rd and 4th Place): The two teams that lose in the semi-finals will play each other the following week (week 17) for 3rd and 4th place.
Trades: All trades will require a 24-hour league review period before being finalized. Within that time frame league members may veto a trade if they choose. Five vetoed votes are required to overturn a trade.
Waiver Wire Transactions: Blind bidding will be used to acquire free agents from the waiver wire (WW). Each team will have a $1,000 budget. Minimum bids are 0 dollars. Waivers are locked on Tuesdays. All blind bids will be processed at 12 PM ET. Teams that do not make the playoffs are not permitted to make WW pickups. Once a playoff team is eliminated, they also are no longer permitted to place WW bids. Consolation teams competing for 3rd and 4th place may place $0 bids on Sunday only.
In-Season Suspensions: In the case where a player gets suspended in-season, we will have a ‘Suspended Players List.’ Once the suspension is official, you may drop that player from your team, returning them to the free agent pool. No other team will be permitted to add that suspended player to their team at that time. Once the suspension has been served, you may place the suspended player back on your team before his first game back. Do this the same way you acquire free agents from the free agent pool.
If you don’t place the previously suspended player back on to your roster, he will become an available free agent following his first game played coming off suspension, and the 11 other teams may now roster him. This rule does not apply to suspended players heading into the regular season.
