I. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER

 

Some hiccups this week as game contacts did not go smoothly in some cases.  Please, if you set a time for a game, be there or give some advance notice if you can’t make it as your opponent has likely made time for you and has other things they could do if the game isn’t going to go off.  If you do have to reschedule, be there, on time for the second time as your opponent may not give you a third chance and I won’t make them either.  Overall, if you set a time and are going to be late, a quick note to let them know would be great, otherwise, be there on time.  Please be sure to get in touch with your opponent and set a time early in the week.  Keep up with those game contacts asap and good luck to all in week 8.

 

I can’t stress enough that need to IMMEDIATELY send me your game export when the game is complete.  Send your write up later on, that’s fine, but I MUST have the game export as soon as the game ends or I’ll have to sim the game to keep things.

 

***A new game update is available dated 9/6, please get it from the ISFL website before you play any games this week.*** 

 

Don’t forget, if you lose a player for 2 or more games, you can ask for an injury replacement, but it must be done the same week as the injury, so don’t wait, get those requests in right away and take advantage, especially the teams who are already challenged for the amount of games they have to work with.  Also, be sure you give me a enough names.  Week 2 there were 15+ injury requests, if you are a good team, you will need to list 3, 4 or more names to be sure you get a player you want.

 

Reminder that you MUST send a boxscore and writeup to the league after each game.  The home team is responsible for this, but either team can do it, as long as it does get done.  Also, you MUST send me the game export immediately after the game is complete.  It takes about 30 seconds, so I shouldn’t have to chase you down for that file after a game, just get it in right away so I don’t have to guess whether a game has happened or not.
