SGT D,
Thanks for bringing this up. I have been made aware of this happening and have already contacted Bernie about this, all I know is that his teams seem to have been restored to pre-salary dump changes.
I have been having a very hard time logging in and posting here, as most of us have.
I will contact DEZ but regardless I think we'll switch back to signups for event four leagues and the password will be distributed via PM. I will try to get updated on the situation and will communicate with everyone here.
Sorry for the short and late reply, but its 3 am and this is the first real chance I get to post in a while.
C2

I'm in one of those leagues (League 1) that DEZman dumped his team for all $0.50 players, and it is ridiculous. As would be expected, his team has now lost 11 straight divisional games here in the final week of the season, tipping the wildcard scales strongly to the 2nd place team in his division. Maybe the wildcard would have come from his division anyway, but it still leaves a bad taste with some teams thinking "what if...".
I noticed today his team has been restored, and when I clicked on his manager name to check out his ratings/records, it comes up with Bernie's profile. So I assume Bernie must have gone in to override DEZman's salary dumping...?? If so, thumbs up to Bernie for acting on that so quickly. Unfortunately for the rest of the league, we had to endure an intentional dumping of his team and games at the most crucial part of the season.
Change of format while loading leagues for upcoming events

Given some of the rather unfortunate incidents that have occured in this year's championship I have decided to switch back to sign-ups for each individual league, prior to forming the league. This is to avoid posting league passwords in the forums and avoid managers you do not want to participate in any given league with.
[i:e0ee0e913b]I will ask you to consider, as a common courtesy, to sign up for leagues when and if you are ready to load your team[/i:e0ee0e913b]. If you want to secure a spot I will open a late comers league so if your schedule won't allow you to participate in forming leagues there will be a spot reserved for you in a late league.
I hope we will be able to sign-up, load and lock as promptly in the last two events as we did in events two and three.
Once a league has started signups I will create the league according to the event's specs and PM the league name and password to those managers that sign up.
If you have any questions regarding this process please feel free to ask away :)

[quote:42b26c7486]X. Ballpark Requirement
Managers will be required to play in a different ballpark for each Event of the Tournament Schedule, including the Champions League. You may not pick the same park twice. If you do pick a park that you have used before, you will be fined 25 points off your total. In addition, the Champions League (drafted with a Live Draft) will require unique ballparks (i.e. two managers in the same league can’t use the same ballpark).
[/quote:42b26c7486]
The above quote is taken from the rules as posted in the tournament's main page:

According to my records, here's a summary, manager by manager of ballparks used per event.
Please review your parks and let me know if you see any discrepancies. Thank you.
