The league will use the following settings:
- Injury System 3. Pitchers will be just as likely to be injured as batters, hence the name of the league :)
- CP Trades are allowed, but only 5 CPs can be acquired or traded away in any given season
- Player name changes are allowed
- Skill grades will be displayed as numbers (1-100) instead of letters (A+, A, A-, B+, etc.)
- 15 games per day
- After the Amateur Draft runs, the next season will start the next day.
- Amateur Draftees will appear at 11PM on the day the league reaches August 15th
- Draft picks can be traded only up to 3 seasons in advance.
- No hidden improvements
- Players will stay on the waiver wire for 16 sim days
- A playoff deadline of Sept 1st, players must be acquired before Sept 1st in order to be post-season eligible
- Only catchers can start at catcher.
- A team must carry 2 major league catchers.
- A player must be at least 75% at catcher as a secondary position to count or play as a catcher.
- Inactive teams will be replaced after 3 weeks of inactivity, without a refund unless they notify the league commish that they will be away
In the past for private leagues, we selected a commish before the league signups started. For the Speed leagues, we will select a commish while signups are underway.
Again, please remember that special rules cannot be added to a Speed league.
If you are interested in being the commish of this league, please send Admin a u2u after you have signed up for a team. Your responsibilities will largely be communication - namely acting as a liason between the Admins and the rest of the league.
The commish won't have any power or responsibility to make rulings or judgments in a Speed league. We may ask for your input though and if you're interested in starting your own Private league - this may be a good place to prove you're capable. We also sometimes give commishes perks like free Dynasty Expansion teams.
The cost of the league will be $70 for 17 seasons of play, which will be roughly 8 months. Subsequent 17 season terms will cost $60-$65, depending on whether you renew on time.
Here is some more background info on the concept of Speed leagues:

If you are interested in playing, please follow these instructions:
1) Create a new screen name, or log in as a screen name that doesn't already have a team at http://www.simdynasty.com/
2) Return to the homepage and follow the link to signup for a team.
3) After you pay, click the Continue button to claim your team. If you forget to do this, return to the homepage and click the link again to signup for a team.
INITIAL DRAFT
Usually, the initial draft will run about 48 hours after the 16th team signs up. After the league is full, we typically post a draft time the following morning. We normally start the first season 2 days after the draft runs.
When the last team joins, we will post a game and draft schedule within 12-24 hours.

The Tommy John League is the next of our "Speed" leagues. These leagues are a hybrid of the Private leagues and the Dynasty leagues. We call them Speed leagues because they typically play more than 3 games per day, this league will play 15 games per day.For more info on the difference between Speed, Dynasty, and Private Leagues, [url=http://www.simdynasty.com/payleagues.jsp]please see the Pay Leagues page under Sign Up[/url]

The irony between the name of this league and how it is set up, is simply ... awesome.Pages: 1
