I have my team ready. When I go to join a league how do I know what the cap penalty is for dropping a player. I know it can be set for a league if I am creating one. But we cannot all create leagues. Someone has to do the joining. But I see nothing on the leagues listing page that indicates what that setting is. How do I tell?

there shuld be a grey box on the right that wasys waiver: standard (or whatever your league is) plus the cap, etc. There is a link there that says show advanced settings, clikc that and the FA penalty settings will drop down.

The following leagues have a salary cap of $80,000,000.
Name Level Created by DH rule Waivers # Teams
FILTER --> All Std. Adv. All DH no DH All yes no
TSN_221 Std. - DH yes 6

Above is what I see when I click join a league. I see the name of the league. I see whether it is advanced or standard. Next is a column for who created the league. Then if it is DH or no DH.

In the column for waivers I see either yes or no. But there is no indication if the waivers are weighted or not weighted. The filter has all, yes, or no. Nothing else to go by. :(

Last is a column that shows number of teams in the league. There is absolutely nothing I see that shows which of these leagues use the 20% penalty and which ones use the new drop penalty options.

Going with what geekor said I kept clicking away at stuff. I did find after clicking on a league I get the gray box he referred to and with an additional click I see what I am looking for. Why not a column that shows the other options used on the main screen? And why not the ability to sort or filter according to what options are attached to a league? It would make it easier to find the type of league you are looking for.
