Hey all :D

The majority has revealed itself with 10-6 (Pacific & PNL yet to vote) voting in favour of a rules discussion, so lets get stuck into it  :o

ANYONE can nominate a rule change, and it will be voted on. However, be sure there is adequate explanation to validate your proposed change.

Every now and then throughout the year, someone has brought up something they'd like Worlds to do differently. Now is the time to bring that up, and it WILL be voted on. We only have 3 weeks of the year to discuss rules and change them, so use this time wisely. Once the rules have been voted on, THAT IS IT for the next 12 months! (except for the review on the trade voting process that is held after the trade period).

We need all rule changes approved/rejected by Monday the 27th of August, which probably means I'll leave the final PM no later than the 24th.

Personally - unlike previous years - this year I don't really have a clear focus on any given rule. Except, as always...

THERE WILL BE A SALARY CAP! It is the only thing that I will enforce, even if against the majority. The only thing I'll entertain is what kind of cap system we implement.  It will not go away whilst I'm admin, so suggestions to get rid of it entirely are fruitless.

So with the above in mind, I'll leave the floor open for rule suggestions :)

Actually, I lied.

I miss the Leadership Group :( I WANT IT BACK!

And Rolling Lockout loopholing should be allowed. Maybe not partial lockout loopholing, but I think there is merit in Rolling Lockout loopholing, as because as we saw earlier in the year, you might innocently have to do it just to name your preferred team.

Mid season trade period ill float that.

Injuries to one line or injuries in general can cause some real issues.

Some very minor fix ups could really fix alot of bad luck

Also, partial lockout loopholing can be perceived as dodgy, because it advantages those with players in Thursday night games.

Rolling lockout loopholing doesn't advantage any team with a particular set of players, so yeah, I think there is merit.

Don't mind the idea of Mid Season trade, but I think it needs to be capped

Eg you can only do X amount of trades

I would think 2 or 3 should be max

#5
Rivalry round? no HGA

Toronto vs Dublin
NY vs pacific
ect

Thoughts?

I think the cap needs a tweak. Should be based on the total value of players actually playing that year, not the year before. There's lots of cap cheats who are actually more than 5% over the max.

Also SUPER FLOOD! Using 2 of the 5 in one hit. Make it possible to play a D8 if people want to use 4 at once.

So how do you plan to value all the guys who will play next year who didnt play this year?
