2012 News Thread (updated 8/31/07)

The site has been updated to the last day of the 2011 season. I have already rolled the game over to 2012. I will update the site Wednesday at which point free agency will begin. The free agency rules are outlined in the FAQ here:

TSSL FAQ

Here is the basic run down:

1. Each team can spend up to a max of 45 million dollars in one setting. Pretty much, if you offer 45 million in contracts during the first round and either everyone rejects your deals, or you sign some and lose some, you may once again spend up to your limit in the following round. Length of contract does not matter.

2. Each team is limited to only one 14+ million dollar per year offer throughout the entire free agent period. If that player signs elsewhere, you may again offer a 14+ million deal. Length of contract does not matter.

3. Each team, per round, may offer only two MLC deals. This is one of SBSL's old rules.

4. There will be no rules regarding trading players you sign. The TC, however, will be watching such trades carefully.

Read the FAQ for more detailed information. I'm pretty sure that I will have 3 periods of 10 days each plus the usual scramble for scraps afterwards. I will send my offers to Hammer before FA actually begins like I have done as always.

I'll post the draft order at some point, but don't bother bugging me about it. I'm not editing the draft class this year...other than names of guys and such...no ratings will be altered. What you see is what you get with this year's draft class.

As I mentioned before, once the season starts I will be simming twice a week now instead of the three times a week I did all summer. Sims will be held on Monday nights and Friday nights.

I'm going to upload the site tonight instead of Wednesday.

this draft class sucks...just terrible. I've changed my mind and I'm going to edit. It probably won't be as good as last year's, but this is one the worst classes I've seen. I'll do it as some point and I'll figure out the draft order when that's done that way people can begin picking.
