Rules 2008-09


LOL GENERAL RULES
• Rule changes are only scheduled for discussion at the annual summer meeting
• No personal attacks on the posting board
• Team fees $100 due at the draft- no exceptions
• You will address the commissioner as "commissioner sir,", but only if he addresses you first
• Never use the commissioner's name in vein
• You must attend the summer meeting in order to take part in the rule discussion/vote or draft
• GM's must be active throughout the year or get the boot at the end (the Bill Parris rule). The collective of League's GM's will make that call (majority rules).
• Use Yahoo indicator on who is injured/suspended.


DRAFT
• Everybody must be at the draft or have a representative drafting for them. The exception is something critical and sudden at the Commissioner's discretion. If he agrees your absence was unavoidable, you will be given the Bubba deal...drafting a team from the dregs.


WINNINGS / PAYOUTS

• Payouts are generally agreed to at the draft or summer meeting and depends on entry and participants.
• A typical payout on a 12 team league with $100 Entry looks like this:
• 1st = $600; 2nd= $300; 3rd= $200; 4th=$100
• Typically 3rd or 4th will only get money back (depending on participants)
• Payouts are on or before the next year's draft date (gives the option for the commish to lock up the money for one year)
• Everybody must bring their $100 to the draft. Based on an 11-team league, the payout will be $600 for first place, $300 for second place and $200 for third place. If we have a 12-team league, we pay back to fourth, giving fourth place his money back ($100).


SUMMER MEETING

• The annual summer meeting is the only place where we can change rules to an upcoming season.
• At least half of the league's returning GM's must be present (AJ can be represented by a GM of his choice) in order for the meeting to be legitimate.
• Rule changes can be established on a majority vote of the GM's in attendance at the meeting (not necessarily all LOL GM's).
• Summer meeting is the only time where an offseason trade can be made.


ROSTER & DRAFT

• The GM must be present for the draft
• Active Spots: 10 F; 5 D; 3 G
• Must always have non injured/suspended (active) players dressed and filling the roles (in otherwords, no sitting all your goalies to maintain a good GAA or S%.
• You can pick up 3 backup goalies however in theory, and have them in your active roster spots, you just have to have Active players in dressed positions, using Yahoo as the decider.
• 5 IR slots available, and 5 bench spots.
• $300 roto bucks for each team to start the draft
• Every GM must fill out 10 (f) 5 (d) 3 (g) at a minimum, and all 23 spots at the draft
• Teams must always maintain a minimum of 10-5-3
• Only players who are drafted by an NHL are draft eligible, includes retirees.
• Teams returning a following season must keep 3 (f) 2 (d) 1 (g) (cannot go without keepers)
• Each player increases in salary $5
• Keepers must be submitted as per commish's deadline before the draft. Generally date is set week or two before the draft to allow GM's to prepare.
• Once the season starts, you do not have to stay under a $300 limit. Salary and team salary are only applicable at the draft.
• The past year winner gets first throw at the draft, and then the draft moves clockwise around the table
• Each team must take a turn to select a player to auction, starting at a minimum of $1.
• Only whole integers ($1, $2, $3, etc)
• During bidding, the auctioneer will use his discretion and select the GM he felt called first in cases of 2+ GM's tying on a bid.
• 2 draft sheets are used. One is completed by the GM, and the other by the commish. At the end of the draft, both the GM and Commish review their sheets together to ensure all information is accurate.
• Once both GM and Commissioner have agreed on the draft list, the commissioner's copy will become the official copy for the year.
• In cases of salary dispute, the commissioner's team sheets will always be used as final. This includes the salaries posted on this website, (possible keying errors).


WAIVERS & INJURIES
• We maintain 5 Waiver picks this season, used in the same fashion as last year. If you see a player you like on the Yahoo Waiver List, you pick him up and add him to your team. You must then make a drop to stay within the Roster Size limit. You then immediately make a post to let the Commissioner and everybody else know who you picked and who you dropped. Hence the Pick & Post line. You no longer have to give your waiver pick to the Commissioner by Sunday at noon. You do all the work yourself and then post it. The Waiver salary remains $5 unless the player had an assigned salary via the season draft. You can make these waiver picks whenever you want. You can blow all five in a day or keep them for the season. You can also trade your waiver picks.
• Injury pickups have changed First off, you can only make an injury move if Yahoo has listed your player with a red IR. At that point, no matter the day of the week or time, you can make an immediate pick up. That player is no longer tied to anybody on your team. He is not tied to the IR player you have. You can trade this player, if you want to, and no longer have to send the IR player as part of the deal. When your IR player comes back, you must drop a player to maintain the correct Roster Size but it no longer has to be the player you picked up for him. If you like the player picked, you simply drop another player. You must maintain roster size, but can drop any player you want. And it does not cost you a waiver. This process can be repeated as often as necessary if you are hit with a series of injuries. You can make as many injury pickups as you need, provided your players have the red IR beside their name. Again, you must post your injury pickup or pickups immediately after making them.


TRADES

• Trade deadline is the closest date to March 1.
• Trades can be made and are unlimited
• You can trade as many people as you want, for as many people as you want (doesn't necessarily have to be even up) as long as you meet the 10-5-3
• Once 2 teams have agreed to a trade, and hit "accept", in order to make the trade legit, you must both post "trade good" to make it official on the post board. Even with the trade accepted, a trade can be vetoed or voided if both GM's do not post "trade good".
• Trade settings set to "league votes for 7 days" to allow time for both GM's to post 'trade good' before the commish releases the trade.
• You can trade back for a player you've already acquired/traded during the season
• No collusion or spoiler trades


PENALTIES

• Roster Freeze for a week.
• Non Compliance to rules around participation, meeting roster minimums, etc


COMPLAINTS
• Are to be made to the Commissioner via email only. Any concerns and problems noted will be kept in anonymity and public posts won't be used to complain about a GMs lack of posting picks or any other problem.


CATEGORIES / SCORING

• Rotisserie style scoring per category
• Goals, Assists, Points, PIMS; +\-; PP Goals; PP Assists; SH Points; Game Winners; Wins; Shut Outs; GAA; Save %
• We will add HITS if Yahoo adds.

Rotisserie For the Ages!

So I thought since we have access to league info dating back to 2001, that I would closely examine league standings of every year in order to determine the average standings of each team.

Now there are a few ways to do this, here is the way I selected. I took the amount of teams in the league, and divided that against 1 to gain a % weight. So in laymans terms, I took a 8 team league and divided 1/8 = 12.5%. So every place in the standings that year earned you 12.5%, so the last place team in the league was assigned 12.5, and the winner that year then (is 8/8) equals 100%. The 4th place team in a 8 team league earns 50%. You get it.

I see this as the only comparable way to measure 2001 season (8 teams) to the 2003 season (13 teams). 7th place finish in 2003 (45%) is now worth a lot more than a 7th place finish in 2001 (25%) given 7th in 2003 was in the middle of the standings. So now you get the weighting. Now we've created apples to apples.

Finally, I added up all of the totals (weight %) and then simply 'averaged' them out. So a team that has played 5 seasons I added up all weight percentages and divided by 5.

Below is how the Career Standings Work Out: (2 seasons of record to qualify) [personal high/low] * means active

Wasaga Beach Thongs: 83.40% (6 Seasons) [hi 100%, lo 54.6%] *
Panama Hats: 80.75% (6 Seasons) [hi 100%, lo 38.5%] *
Flatbush Divers: 72.58% (4 Seasons) [hi 91.7%, lo 45.5%]
Relief Bay Hawks: 71.97% (3 Seasons) [hi 80.0%, lo 66.7%] *
Sodom Icers: 69.13% (6 Seasons) [hi 100%, lo 33.3%] *
New Zealand Slapnuts: 59.95% (5 Seasons) [hi 84.6%, lo 25.0%] *
Inn Tents: 57.95% (3 Seasons) [hi 70.0%, lo 50.0%] *
Bangor Goods: 52.50% (2 Seasons) [hi 75.0%, lo 30.0%] *
Victoria Secrets: 50.57% (5 Seasons) [hi 90.9%, lo 10.0%] *
Backamee Bags: 50.55% (5 Seasons) [hi 66.7%, lo 30.8%]
Uranus Puckers: 48.23% (3 Seasons) [hi 75.0%, lo 33.3%]
Moose Jaw Breakers: 29.92% (3 Seasons) [hi 37.5%, lo 25.0%]
Poonani Chasers: 28.33% (2 Seasons) [hi 40.0%, lo 16.7%] *
Only Wannawins: 25.08% (3 Seasons) [hi 46.2%, lo 9.1%] *
Cummin Pailers: 17.17% (3 Seasons) [hi 25.0%, lo 8.3%]
Tutt's Ice Rutts: 8.01% (2 Seasons) [hi 8.3%, lo 7.7%]

Of Note:
  • Bill's Bench Scored Higher than his Line-Up.
  • 50% avg is mid way in standings
  • Thongs, Hawks, Tents are models of consistency, never finishing below middle of the standings
  • Secrets, Slapnuts completely inconsistent
  • Hats, Icers, only a few blemishes in otherwise excellent career avg
  • Breakers, Pailers, Ice Rutts also consistent.
  • 8 of the 10 active teams on average finish in the top half of the standings, which means competition among the GMs has never been better.
Talk amongst yourselves.
