Games will be played sometime between 8AM and 7PM. Exact times will be posted when the league fills up.
For more info on the difference between Speed, Dynasty, and Private Leagues, please see the Pay Leagues page under Sign Up
The league will use the following settings:
- 9 games per day
- Initial Draft Class will be cloned a league with similar rules, the player names will be changed to protect the innocent
- It takes 10 sim days for a player to clear waivers.
- Injury System 3 ( http://rules.simdynasty.com/index.php/Sim_Dynasty_Rulebook#Injured_Players )
- Variable Development System ( http://rules.simdynasty.com/index.php/Sim_Dynasty_Rulebook#Variable_Improvement )
- System 3 Minor League Improvements ( http://rules.simdynasty.com/index.php/Sim_Dynasty_Rulebook#The_Four_Types_of_Minor_League_CP_Systems )

- Amateur Draftees will appear at 11PM on the day the league reaches September 1st.
- Draft picks can be traded only up to 3 seasons in advance.
- No hidden improvements
- 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.
- Stadium changing rules, a new stadium every 5 seasons and fence/surface adjustments every 1 seasons.
- Inactive teams will be replaced after 21 days of inactivity, without a refund unless they notify the league commish that they will be away
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 post a private message for Admin in Support after you have signed up for a team. Your responsibilities will largely be communication - namely acting as a liaison 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 initial cost of the league will be either $58 for 6 months, $65 for 8 months, or $72 for 10 months of play. The 10 month option is your best value. After that, you will be charged $6.25 per month. Any owners that opt out of the league will be replaced at a cost of $13 for the first 3 months, then $6.25 per month after that.
Here is some more background info on the concept of Speed leagues:

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, I will post a game and draft schedule within 12-24 hours.
The draft class will be generated shortly.
