[b:0a33873085]Theme/Draft Rules: [/b:0a33873085]
1) Each Owner picks 1 Hitter AND 1 Pitcher in the first two rounds. Obviously if you take a hitter in Round 1, you would take a Pitcher in Round 2.
2) Each Owner owns the rights to the team from which his first pick is made for the first TWO rounds of the draft. For example: Santana is picked first. No succeeding Owner may take a Met player until after the first TWO rounds are completed. At the onset of Round 3 all players are fair game.
3) Your Stadium must be from the home park of one of your first two picks. If (this is important) you do not pick your stadium with your first pick, you MUST use the stadium from the team of your second pick. For example: Owner 1 with the Santana pick doesn't declare Citi Field as his park. He cannot pick Citi in Round 2. The only exception would be if he chose another Met player in Round 2. Then his park would obviously be Citi Field.
[color=blue:0a33873085]Important:[/color:0a33873085] Owners do not own rights to teams of which players are picked in Round II. For example: No one picked a Rays player in Round I and Longoria was picked during Round II. Another owner could pick a Rays player during this round. Please ask if this rule is confusing you.
4) As previously stated, ALL players are eligible to be drafted AFTER Round II.
5) There will be ONE additional Round after the 12 Round Live Draft called the Give & Take or the Screw Your Neighbor Round (both are acceptable ) "SYN" for short.
6) Randomization will be done again on a day TBD just before the completion of Round XII. This SYN Round is a completely new order from the original draft.
7) No trading draft spots after the draft has begun.
8) [color=blue:0a33873085]Important[/color:0a33873085]: First Two players picked and the SYN Round pick [u:0a33873085]cannot[/u:0a33873085] be dropped at anytime, nor can they be traded. All other players may be dropped, but all draft picks must be put on your draft card.
[b:0a33873085]Screw Your Neighbor Round Rules: [/b:0a33873085]
* Each owner gets to pick ANY player drafted by another Owner that was picked after Round II. Once an owner loses a player, he cannot lose any more players. Therefore each owner loses a player, AND gains a player.
* The player(s) picked in the Screw Your Neighbor round CAN NOT be re-stolen during this round
Past Owners of Give & Take always get priority. Past Owners may sign-up immediately, new Owners must put down name as an alternate. Former Owners have until Tuesday April 12 at Noon EDT. After that alternates will be used. Below is a list of last year's Owners.
