This league will be a combo of ideas from Ducapa's Phillies theme and the Leonard Pope League. It will be an ongoing league, though not a keeper league. It would be nice to keep same owners for each season but not necessary, if you only want to commit to one season (one credit) that's ok.

League will use a different theme every season, first theme will be Ducapa's Phillies/2 franchise, second season will be Blackjack's tiered players season, third and ongoing seasons themes will be proposed and determined by all owners.

Rules for first season:
12 teams
120 M cap, 10% drop penalty, will use 140M option, but actual cap=120M
DH
Unleashed
Frenzy Waivers
Trades Encouraged
Stadium from 2 drafted franchises, or any player drafted in 4 round draft. First to draft a Phillie only team that can select Citizens Bank Park.


Basic theme is each owner must have at least one Phillie on roster, and will draft two franchises (not Philadelphia) allowing them to have permanent ownership of those two franchise's players, excepting trades. Owners must have at least 9 players from their two drafted franchises on their active roster, trades/drops are ok as long as total is at least 9.

After the franchise draft a four round live draft (diamondope or chat thread) will be held, owners can take Phillies players or any player from the five non-drafted franchises. After the draft all undrafted players from the five undrafted franchises and undrafted Phillies will be free agents eligible to be picked up by any owner. Owners will select their stadium from one of their drafted franchises or one of their drafted players.

Drafts: [b:cc6048033f]Franchise Draft[/b:cc6048033f]: 2 rounds, randomizer determines order,
serpentine

Phillie/Free Agent Players Draft: 4 rounds, order will be
reverse of W-L records of 2 drafted teams
ex.- TEX-SF owner would pick after Pitt-KC
owner, serpentine

Draft order for Phillie/free agent draft may be changed if we decide to do so.

[Ducapa]

Some tweaks were made to the rules on old thread since there is no 120m cap I made it 140m bc I wanted over 100m for more flexibility since there are fa's and trades, etc. Of course you can go back to 100m for the next theme. Also, I updated stadiums so only first to draft a phillie gets rights to citizens bank park but its not truly unique stadiums as you can pick from ur 2 franchises and fa drafted players. Hope that is okay.

Nymets suggested using the 140m cap option but we could have each owner keep at least $20m in cash at all times so it would really be 120m.

Another suggestion would be to just run a randomizer and than we can get draft order as soon as it fills.
