After a very exciting world series conclusion, Season 42 of Mauer is ready to begin. We have openings for the first time in two season, which says a lot about our world. In the newest 2018 world rankings, we are ranked as "very good" world to join!! Mauer is built on solid owners with world rules that work and enforced to create an excellent league. Please see below for the rules.
Private World Rules
1. Voting
If the world is voting for a new rule to be instituted it needs 2/3(21 owners) to be approved for the world. All owners are strongly encourages to vote. Voting in done by trade chat to prevent bickering on the chat board.
2.Vet Committee
If a rule has been broken a Vets Committee consisting of 5 owners(including the commish) will come to a decision if a owner needs to be removed from the world because of a rule violation. The owner who is up for removal can make a case for why they shouldn't be removed from the world. Then the Vet committee would discuss and vote on if the owner should be removed from the league.

3. Minor Leagues
Minor League teams should have enough players to field a competitive roster, and not have pitching staffs that are at 0%. This takes the fun out of the game even though it is the minor league level, and by having your batters facing pitchers with 0% you don't get a good feel of how your prospects are performing.
4. Minimum Win Rule
In the mauer league there is a Minimum win rule of 58 wins. If you don't make the MWR of 58 wins, you are capped the following season in your prospect budget line of 10 million as a penalty. If you go over the 10 million cap, you will be removed from the world. This rule is in place to prevent tanking and to keep the world competitive.
5. Rule Changes
As we go into future seasons of the Mauer World we might find that we need to add new rules, or modify established rules. If this occurs any new rules or changes to established rules will be up for discussion after roster expansions to the end of the season. That will give us a week to discuss new rules, and rule changes. Then we would vote in the time between the start of the play in series and the end of the divisional championship series.
Listed below are the franchises up for the taking.
