[Bigsmooth]

Kudos to you for making a decision. I can dig it.

Cool. Be sure to remind us at the appropriate times.

Works for me. And BTW my renegotiation talks were all pre-rule this week!

Don't need to worry about renegs for this season - rule starts at the beginning of the next one.

Reminder: The new renegotiation rules are in effect.

[aholbert]

Bump. Please remember these rules when renegotiating. Thanks.

Owner who screwed the pooch the first

[Guest]

are we still observing this?

[Lintyfresh85]

Yes.

Although, if a computer owner does it... I don't know how well I can/will police it.

Weve had more than a week's worth of discussion and so I'm going to make a ruling. Starting the beginning of next season, renegotiations will only be allowed with player's in the last year of their contracts.

We will use the honor code to monitor this rule meaning that I will trust each owner to abide by this rule. I will occasionally check to see that people are following the rule. For the first and second violation of the rule, the owner will be given a warning and the contract will be voided. On the third violation, the contract will be voided and the commisioner has the option to take a draft pick. On the fourth violation, a draft pick will be taken and the commissioner will consider removing the owner from the league.

(this is the only contract rule -- correct?)

I think there's also 'you can't offer a Grey Sheet (or was it Green List?...) recruit less years than what he asks for.'

[Guest]

Grey sheet and yes have to offer the years they want

[BradZ]

Bump for the new owners.

[Guest]

I was unaware you have to offer them the amount of years they want. If I upload a new stage file, will it replace the one I've already uploaded?

It looks like that rule is in a separate rules post but not in the copy of the rules linked from the drop down menu bar on the top of the page.
