Okay guys, we're finally at the point where we are going to get started. The league will officially start tomorrow morning, Thursday September 5th. The preseason sim will happen at midnight Friday Night on September 6th. Here are a few important things you MUST know before this preseason sim happens.
1. You are allowed to sign ONE free agent per team before the preseason is simmed. The game has a transaction log so I will be able to see if anyone has signed more than one free agent. If you do sign more than one guy, I will ask you to release anyone you signed over that limit, and wait until after the preseason is over to sign them back. This is in place to prevent hoarding of free agents obviously.
2. Make sure your cuts are done before midnight on Friday September 6th! You should cut your guys down to your 53, so unless you don't mind the CPU making cuts for you, make sure you have your rosters in order before the preseason sim.
3. I will turn injuries off for the preseason sim, so there's no worries there about losing guys to sim injuries,
4. You are free to trade with any human owned teams here in the league! I will update the contact information for guys to the best of my abilities, however I believe the vast majority of the group is in the GroupMe chat now, so feel free to reach out to some teams about trades!
5. Trades MUST be posted in the trade forum once completed by both teams. Yes, there is a transaction log, yet one of the two teams trading must post the trade here. We did a very good job with this last season, so I don't believe it will be an issue. This is just to make sure everyone knows what is going on in the league.
6. If you want to play your Week 1 preseason game, then feel free, I don't have a problem with that. If it's against a human opponent though, reach out and try to schedule because I doubt I'll place anyone on auto for a preseason game, especially in this type of league.
7. You can practice with your team as much as you like throughout the season or in preseason. With the fast advance schedule, I don't believe the extra XP gained will be that excessive. Plus, if you put the time in you deserve the bonus!
8. After the preseason sim at Midnight on Friday, we will follow the advance schedule already posted for Season 1. The times for advances are pretty firm, and I will do my best to advance daily on time throughout the season. I will update through GroupMe if any advances will be delayed.
If you guys have questions PLEASE ask me now. Thanks!
