The No Whining Progressive Early Edition (NWPEE) is looking for a new owner for 3 new owners
- We are a dual progressive that is currently playing out our 45th Season (1929/1994).
- The draft for the 1930/1990 season begins the day after our current regular season ends, March 24th.
- 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, if I draft rookie Earl Averill in this draft and allot him 8 Contact Points, I would own his rights from the 1929 season until the 1936 season. He will then return to the pool of draft-able players. Once "signed", a contract is ironclad and cannot be renegotiated, unless the player is traded (see Constitution) or dropped.
-The number you see beside each player is the number of Contract Points have in the going into the 1930/1995 season.
-Moving cities is possible next season, San Diego and Colorado are available in the NL. The AL is locked down unless an owner there wants to move.
- Since we are past the Trade Deadline, new owners can take over making off season moves. immediately, if they like.
If you have any questions, please feel free to SM me...
