[b:91972e567c]2002-2003-2004(05) Team Based Keeper League with a Twist:[/b:91972e567c]

1 - 5 Round Draft, drafting 1/2 Teams (either Pitching or Hitting).

1a - [b:91972e567c]MUST[/b:91972e567c] draft either 3 Hitting & 2 Pitching squads, or 2 Hitting & 3 Pitching squads.

2 - You keep the [b:91972e567c]SAME[/b:91972e567c] 1/2 Teams for all three Seasons*

2a - Your personnel [b:91972e567c]WILL[/b:91972e567c] change from year to year as players played on different teams on different seasons

Ex: Cliff Floyd = Red Sox 2002, Met 2003-2004

3 - You retain [b:91972e567c]RIGHTS to ALL[/b:91972e567c] players on your 5 combined squads (2.5 teams) for the full season. Player movement is [b:91972e567c]ONLY by TRADING[/b:91972e567c], save for add/drops of players whose rights you own.

4 - Players belong to the team they finished the season with/team name on their TSN Card.

Ex: Cliff Floyd played on 3 teams in 2002, but belongs to Red Sox as that is the team he finished the season with.

5 - Players traded are solely for that season. Owners regain the rights to the player for future years, so long as the player remains on a 1/2 team they control.

6 - Barring majority preference otherwise, the 5th Round will be in reverse order to Rounds 1 & 3.

6a - Also, barring majority preference otherwise, you can select your ballpark from any of the 5 half squads you draft.

Ex: You draft Boston H, Yankee H, Philly P, San Francisco P & Toronto H. You can play in Fenway, Yankee, Veterans, Pac Bell or SkyDome.

7 - There will be no clock during the weekends. Due to the skilled nature of the draft (remember you're drafting a team for 3 seperate seasons) the clock will be 24 hours long. Should you miss a turn, your next turns clock length will be decreased by half (to 12, 6, 3) - unless you select before next turn.

[b:91972e567c]8 - All Seasons will use DH [/b:91972e567c]

9 - Pick III Lottery is High to Low

10 - Season I Divisions are based on Draft order (1/4/7/10, 2/5/8/11, 3/6/9/12) while subsequent seasons divisions are based on record from previous season (best 4, middle 4, worst 4).

Note *: This will be the last season unless a majority of owners agree to carry on for 2007 - need 6 (excluding myself) to move forward. I of course am voting to have a Season V (2007) following Season IV.

Owners may begin discussing trades once they have checked in and confirmed their return. I'll give owners about 1 week to check in, then will post pages/PMs as reminders, and give owners a few more days after that before I start looking for replacements.
