First rule: dont be a thingy. If you exhibit excessive thingyery I will boot you.
Second rule: there are a lot of rules
Ok To begin. Welcome to play GM '09 where you can play GM for any of the 30 teams in the major leagues. I have chosen the mets and i shall be admin to this league. YOU MUST READ THE FOLLOWING.
When Yahoo opens up to allow fantasy i will put the teams there.
To join this league You must have aim. To join you must post your name, team you want, aim sn, and email in the designated thread. as soon as you do that i will approve or disapprove what team you are. After that you must make a roster.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE NOTE::::::
YOUR team will be your team before FA started and before any signings. I.E. CC, AJ, Teix are not yankees, burrell isnt a Ray, ETC.
Once i have approved your team, you must post your 25 man roster in the MY ROSTER thread. Your roster( i will repeat this in the thread) must consist of:
5 SP, 6 RP, C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, OF,OF, OF, UTIL, UTIL AND 4 Bench(whether P or Offense).
You must include the players 2008 salary in this. Add up your total salary, this is your TEAM SALARY. By team salary i mean the sum of the players on the teams salary not the total posted on ESPN or MLB.com because that total is the 40 man roster plus other factors. To that TEAM SALARY please add 50 million dollars (or 65 million if your team has a salary in the bottom 5 (fla, oak, tb, wash, pitt). this amount will be your TOTAL salary or CAP salary. The amount available is your CAP ROOM. Please post all of these amounts.
As you change your roster PLEASE EDIT it. DONT repost it.
After we have 12 or 14 or 16 or 18 teams we will have an auction for FA(FA's include Soriano,Lee, Brad ford, etc.). This auction will be held on held on this message board 3 players at a time using the cap money you have. During the auction people may say that they have DROPPED their bidding, meaning they have NO RIGHT to bid on a player AGAIN.
****You may trade money and players.
****To DROP a player from your roster you still have to pay 1/2 of his salary.
IF a player has an option on your team and you pick it up you pay his 2008 salary. If you dont pick it up he becomes a FA. Note which players had options or not on your roster.
There will be a TRADE thread where you post trades that you have made. All information; including IM CONVERSATION must be posted. If this is not done the trade will be nullified
PLEASE NOTE: on the auctions players like CC might go for 10 or 20 million depending on what teams are in the pool for auctioning. WHEN BIDDING you must up you bid by AT ELAST 0.1 million dollars. The bidding for a player ends when either:
a)- all other teams drop from the bidding or:
b)- no one has made a bid since the last bid. So if I post a 23 million dollar bit at 8:24 PM on 1/10 and no one replies by 8:24 PM on 1/11 I win that player.
Since there will be 3 players at a time: post all three players whether you bid for them or not. This will include last bidding time.
When the auction is over and you "win the bidding" the player salary will be the amount of money that you "paid" in the auction. i will tell you what his salary will be on your roster. This amount will be provided by protrader through me. I approve all trades.
Good luck all.
