<span style='border-bottom:1px solid #522; padding: 0 0.5em'>2040 Schedule</span>
*Subject to change, so please pay attention and subscribe to the Announcements thread!*
As a general rule, M-thru-F during the offseason and M/W/F during the season.
Export deadlines, unless otherwise noted, are at 11 AM EST.
Please be aware (and bear with me!) that this season's schedule is more tentative than usual, especially around the holidays. If you'd like to sign on as a backup simmer and help out, please let me know and we can give it a try.
See Guide to Midweek Additions if you need to put a new player in your depth chart for a game. I can handle that for you.
Draft Guide: The draft will begin with a "slow roll" period where teams have 14 hours to make their selections.
When the "slow roll" period ends, the draft clock will run from 11AM to 10PM EST with shorter times allotted for each pick (see schedule below).
If a day's allotted draft rounds finishes early, the draft will continue untimed.
As a courtesy to your fellow owners, please check in regularly while the draft is ongoing, and set an autofire players queue if you plan on not being around. Teams whose times expire will get docked available time for their remaining picks.
Christmas scheduling:: 12-25, 12-30, 1-1 off. King Kosar will sim 12-21, 12-23, and 12-28 @ 6PM EST.
