This is TDFFL Update #2 Part II:
1. Rule Proposals. 13 rule proposals have been received so far. They are posted in the TDFFL Forum: tdffl.freeforums.net/thread/10/2016-rule-proposals. If you want to comment on any rule proposal, feel free to do so in the forum. Again, the deadline to submit rule proposals is June 12.
2. Owner Requirements. Owners are required to log in to the site on a regular basis. During the off-season, 45 days of inactivity will result in a warning from the Co-commissioner and 60 days of inactivity will result in removal. During the season, 10 days of inactivity will result in a warning from the Co-commissioner and 60 days of inactivity will result in removal. See the rules for details.
3. Franchise Fee Discounts. The two week extension of the franchise fee early bird discount ends tomorrow, June 1 at 7 PM ET. New owners who don't pay their entry fee by tomorrow will pay the full $25 franchise fee.
4. Entry Fee Deadline. Again, the entry fee deadline is June 16.
5. Rookie/FA Draft. If a league has unpaid owners on June 16, the rookie/FA draft will be postponed to June 26 while replacement owners are found. If there are still unpaid owners on June 26, the draft will be postponed to the 2nd week of July, exact date TBD.
6. Pyramid/Duplicate Players. Download the attached excel spreadsheet if you're interested in seeing what the pyramid (league alignment) would look like if it went into effect this year and the formula mentioned in the rules. The spreadsheet also includes what players would have to be traded or dropped and what players cannot be traded for (TD 6 only). The spreadsheet will be e-mailed to owners one week after the league championship and posted to google docs for those who don't have excel.
This is TDFFL Update #2:
1. Rule Proposal Submission
Owners can now submit rule proposals until June 12. You can e-mail rule proposals to either myself or your league co-commisioner. The Executive Committee (EC) will vote on rule proposals from June 13-19. You can comment on rule proposals up for voting, view the voting results and any rule changes in the TDFFL forum: tdffl.freeforums.net/. If you want to post on any topic and haven't registered yet, you can do so by using your team name as your user name.
2. Roster Drops
Owners have the ability to drop players from their roster. Teams must have at least 18 players on their roster following any drops or trades.
3. Rookie/FA Draft Dates
All the league rookie/free agent drafts (rounds 1 & 2) start on June 22. Rounds 3 & 4 of the draft start on August 1.
If a league still has open teams on June 22, the draft will be postponed to a later date.
4. League Openings
I have one opening in TD 3 and one opening in TD 4. If you know someone who might want to join us, have them contact me.
I also have a couple openings in UFFL V which is a IDP dynasty league. You can see the rosters of the open teams at the league site. Replacement owners can also conduct a dispersal draft, drafting the players and draft picks of the open teams. Contact me if you're interested or would like to join.
5. Entry Fee Information
The entry fee information is described in the league bylaws and also posted on each home page underneath the league standings.
For the amount of your entry fee, see the accounting report or the last column of the league standings.
The entry fee deadline is June 16. Owners who do not pay by the deadline will be removed and replaced starting on the 17th.
Owners can pay via PayPal or by mailing a check/money order:
A. Paying by PayPal --> To avoid fees, send payment as a personal gift if you're using an account that is linked to a bank account or PayPal balance. If your account is linked to a debit or credit card, you have to add 2.9% + $0.30 USD or it will be returned. My PayPal address is Torreano@aol.com
B. Mail a check or money order to:
David Torreano
635 Upton Drive
Colorado Springs, CO 80911
C. Franchise Accounting Records will be updated as entry fees are received.
