RULES - Click here to view screenshots of how the rules were set.

  1. Round 1 starts on 12/23/2014
  2. All rounds are best 3 of 5 except the final 2 rounds.
  3. Final 2 rounds are best 4 of 7
  4. There is a day off  in between each travel date and in between final scheduled day of series.  Series that end earlier will have more rest dates for next series.
  5. Each round will be played over one real calendar week.  You must reach out to your opp by Wed of each week to setup a time to play
  6. If you haven't contacted your Opp by Wed or they haven't contacted you please let the commish know and a sub will be found
  7. Keep in mind that this is software that is just out of beta and there can be errors and bugs that will affect game play.  If that happens we will do our best to fix things, but some things can't be fixed.
  8. Sign up sheet will be posted on 12/11/2014
  9. Top 4 finishers will receive a DKS gift card.  We will have a championship round and a consolation round to ensure that we have a top 3
  10. Seedings will be done within each bracket with each team stacked according to reverse winning % (total wins tiebreaker).  This is done to ensure that there is some sort of equalizer..
  11. Home Field Advantage for subsequent rounds will be determined by the team who played the least games in the previous round.
  12. Tiebreaker would be total runs allowed in tournament to that point..
  13. If still tied we will go with total runs scored as 2nd tie breaker.  Coin flip after that.
  14. Fatigue is based on the maximum amount of games a team could play in the tournament (29).  I enter in 30 games and start fatigue at 125%, which gives you even more cushion.
  15. Batters with 500+ AB's and pitchers with 185+ IP are immune to fatigue.
  16. Catcher's fatigue is part of the process.  Typically if a guy catches 8 or more consecutive games it might kick in.  I believe the game engine prorates it based on a guy's real life usage.
  17. The DH is to be used ONLY for home games for AL teams (from 1973-present).  Fore example:  If the 1997 Yankees are playing the 1931 Yankees the DH is used only when the 1997 Yankees are home, since the 31 Yanks didn't use the DH.
  18. Good luck to all !
