The No Whining Progressive Early Edition (NWPEE) is looking for 1 new owner.
We are currently just about to reach the trade deadline of the 1937 / 2002 Season. Our regular season ends on Thursday, November 19th and our draft begins on the 20th.
- The NWPEE has a Constitution (available in the league forum) which spells out all of our rules. Owners are strongly encouraged to read it over... in the event of any league issues, the Constitution has the final say.
- In order to discourage tanking, the NWPEE has a completely random draft order. The draft order is determined at or around the All-Star Break. And yes this means that the eventual WS champion can end up drafting 1st over all. Rounds then proceed in a serpentine fashion. i.e. 1-24, 24-1, 1-24, 24-1... and so forth.
- One of the unique features of the NWPEE is that, in order to ensure that there is a constant flow of good players available (and to mitigate somewhat the effects of the random draft), the NWPEE employs Contract Points. They operate much like a salary cap. Every team has a Contract Point ceiling of 80. Contract points are the equivalent of Years.
So, for instance if, in the 1938/2003 draft you picked rookie Miguel Cabrera with your pick and allotted him 12 Contract Points, you would own his rights through the 2014 season. Cabrera would then become a Free Agent in 2015. Once "signed", a contract is ironclad and cannot be renegotiated, unless the player is traded or dropped (also see Constitution) .
-The number you see beside each player is the number of Contract Points they will have for 1938/2003 season.
You may drop any player you choose, but you may not increase or diminish anyone's Contract Points.
-You will be allowed, if you so choose, to move your franchise. A list of available stadiums can be provided, upon request.
If you have any questions, please feel free to SM me...
