Crap on Your Neighbor league.... JOIN OR DIE!

[geekor]

Well I'm bored and need a new theme league. This one, is just as it sounds. It will use the staggered draft pattern as below:

ROUND1: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
ROUND2: 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
ROUND3: 4 5 6 1 2 3 10 11 12 7 8 9
ROUND4: 9 8 7 12 11 10 3 2 1 6 5 4
ROUND5: 5 6 1 2 3 4 9 10 11 12 7 8
ROUND6: 8 7 12 11 10 9 4 3 2 1 6 5
ROUND7: 2 3 4 5 6 1 12 7 8 9 10 11
ROUND8: 11 10 9 8 7 12 1 6 5 4 3 2
ROUND9: 3 4 5 6 1 2 11 12 7 8 9 10
ROUND10:10 9 8 7 12 11 2 1 6 5 4 3
ROUND11: 6 1 2 3 4 5 8 9 10 11 12 7
ROUND12: 7 12 11 10 9 8 5 4 3 2 1 6

The gist is, you draft 1 player for the person right after you (the last player draft for who was first). that right a 12 round draft where you get all your players chosen for you! (i.e. 1 picks 2's player, then 2 picks 3's player.... 12 picks 1's player)

[u:6b528ed16d]none[/u:6b528ed16d] of the players you get in the draft can be dropped. I am still thinking whether or not they could be traded, probably vote on that portion. The only other thing is you cannot stick someone with more than 1 possible position (i.e. 2 players who play SS only). Players who are multiple positions can be drafted for any position they play (so yes you can get stuck with two 4 rated SS for instance, assuming 1 plays another position). no more than 5 SP or 4 RP can be doled out either.

It will be 100 mil (forgiving for bad draft) DH, progressive cap hit. Divisions will be standard 1,4,7,10 etc etc. non-unique stadiums

So whose game? Willing to tweak the rules for things I have oerlooked, but I think the premise seems fun.

geek, on the 5 starter, 4 reliever limit...is that per team that can be stuck, or per owner who can use only 5 pitchers as his stick picks to other teams, or both. does that mean a team could possibly get "stuck" with 9-pitchers?

[geekor]

yes, someone could theoretically get stuck with 9 pitchers. I do not want anyone to get stuck with anything they can't make a draft card with, i.e. 8 SP's. So 5 SP and 4 RP are a max that could be given to one person (9 total). I don't think that will happen, but who knows!
