$110M: Progressive / Regressive
No restrictions but, in Round 2, you will be required to draft a 110M team that is entirely made up of the same 25 players + or - X years. X must be the same for all players on your roster. There is no requirement that all of your Round 2 players go in the same direction (i.e. +X years or -X years) — you can have both.

Other Specifics
Seasons: All
DH: No
WW: No
AAA: No
Trades: No
Clones: No
Injuries: Turned On
Multi-team players: No restrictions (i.e., you can use partial or combined)
Ballpark: Use a park one of your players played in for BOTH seasons you plan to use them. You must use the same park in Round 2.
300K Exception: No
Team Name: Reference your number for X
Division Alignment: Random

I am having way too much fun trying to figure this one out....

I had a blast creating that one as well! Trying to create a team that I loved with two versions of each player proved more difficult that I thought. Thank goodness for the little bit of grace with the salary cap.

$180M Theme - DH or no? It says DH in the thread, but the league (at least the one I'm in) is not setup for DH.

Variable Cap does have DH. I'll make sure it's added to each league

$140M: Think Inside the (Franchise) Box
I have divided up the Original 16 Franchises into three boxes. You must select one franchise from each box to build your roster from. You must spend at least 40M in salary from each franchise that you select.

BOX 1______	BOX 2_______	BOX 3
Yankees	Cubs	Tigers
Cardinals	Phillies	Reds
Giants	Pirates	Orioles
Dodgers	Red Sox	Twins
Indians	White Sox	Braves
	Athletics

Other Specifics
Seasons: 1901 - 2019
DH: No
WW: No
AAA: No
Trades: No
Clones: No
Injuries: Turned On
Multi-team players: No combined seasons
Ballpark: Use a park one of your franchises played in
300K Exception: No
Team Name: Reference your three franchises
Division Alignment: Random

Just a reminder to everyone that this theme (and only this theme) prohibits combined seasons.

I expect many many owners will miss this.

So in that case, if a player has *2 instances, I can only use the partial instance that is from my Franchise, correct?

Correct

Variable Cap was fun to build. I will be curious to see how many "budget busters" owners use.

I just spent so much time on this theme! I better make it to round 2 cuz that’s where all my good players will be.

I'm curious as to the validation process for the $110M league. Will the commissioners determine that a legal Round 2 team will be possible for each $110M roster submitted for Round 1? If not, what will be the penalty if an owner qualifies for Round 2 with an illegal $110M roster?

Good question. I should add this to the first page.

There will be no validation required by commissioners. The responsibility falls on the owner. If someone cannot roster a valid team in Round 2, there will be a 10 point penalty and they will need to replace players with 200K scrubs until they are under the cap.

Do we still have the option to submit a second team (after the first one is in) just in case something goes....awry?

I'm not sure what you mean

you had mentioned earlier that they did not have any planned dynamic price adjustments, but it was more of a just in case thing heh

I was under the assumption we were submitting 2 rosters this round.
