LA-Z-BOY’S LEAGUE LI-51 FORMAT
There will be NO D/H this season, Possible Cap Change**********
Please read as rules have been stream lined even further, clock will be used as follows 6 hours (Rounds 1-2), 3 hours (Rounds 3-13) we have to try to avoid and minimize long delays without a pick because proxies aren't used. It's just not fair to the managers that make their picks on-time or have proxies set if they aren't going to be around. While diamonddope has had its problems using diamonddope with the ability to proxy is better than doing the draft on ILC. diamonddope is currently working well. The diamonddope system is easy to use and if there is a question please ask. We will use the diamonddope site, if I can get everyone registered (if new players join). Should there be any problems, we'll revert back to our old drafting method, here on ILC. Using ILC is a last resort.
We no longer have a Live Quick Draft since the larger player pool has made it increasingly more difficult to get everyone together for a Friday Live draft. The reason being because a good team can be drafted from the remaining players after the draft.
We will use these revised LA-Z-BOY Rules with the draft lasting up to a eight day period (Friday start with clock, one weekend, Friday conclusion). The drafting time is being cut with 6 hour clock for rounds 1& 2 ,with a three hour for the remaining rounds, this is to accommodate the varied work schedules we have but allows for the draft to move on after 6 or 3 hours as the draft moves into the later rounds. (We shouldn't have to wait all day for Mickey O'Neal to be picked). Guys please remember the draft has its ebbs and flows and sometimes due to work schedules and computer availability there are longer breaks between picks than everyone might like. With the sliding clock proxies will have to be used but should lead to a more predictable number of picks per day and also limit the number of days needed to draft.
.
League will use the ATG VIII (8) Historical Version of SOM Game, Advanced, 100MM or agreed upon other CAP, No D/H, Frenzy, and 5/10/20 drop rule. Original LA-Z-BOY formula.
We can start drafting rounds beginning Friday 11/28/14 on diamonddope . Our Frenzy Friday will be 12/5/14 .
We will use the randomizer to determine draft order.
Your Availability will be required (if you have not loaded your team) on Friday evening, 12/5/14 for the team loading and Frenzy. (About a 1 to 1.5 Hour Commitment) If you are unable to make this commitment please do not join this league. Additional note team loading will start at the end of the player draft on diamonddope but Frenzy will be Friday 12/5/14 so all can participate. Frenzy can be moved with agreement of the League
League Opening Day will be Monday 12/8/14
League Draft will consist of up to 12 diamonddope player draft rounds and one stadium, again to be determine by flow of the draft. No matter what player and stadium draft will be concluded Thursday evening 12/4/14.
Stadiums will be UNIQUE, diamonddope has been updated so we can make stadium pick there on a first come, first served basis after Round 8.
ALL TEAMS will be entered in the league by Friday, 6:00 PM ET,12/5/14, NO EXCEPTIONS!!!, with Frenzy to follow (11:05 PM ET.).
All drafted players are to be put on the BOTTOM OF YOUR DRAFT LIST.
Division Assignments will be by Strat's Randomizer option, this will eliminate the problem of having to wait on any one particular team, except of course if it's the 12th team that will close out the League. I know it was nice to know your division opponent when drafting but loading the league has been a slow cumbersome event that can be streamlined using SOM division randomizer.
I know every possible situations is not covered in the rules but any decisions that have to be made will be made as fairly as possible.
Again We will use the diamonddope draft site, I know this was a problem for some last draft but it is the best option available for the way LA-Z-BOY drafts. Keeping draft fair for all work schedules. Key is using proxies
Lastly everyone is to have fun and may we have another fun filled season of LA-Z-BOY Baseball.
