I. MESSAGE
FROM THE COMMISSIONER
Week 3 is
complete lets keep things rolling along, as we have had a great start so far
this season though we are pushing up against the deadline a little bit.
Good work on game contacts so far, please don’t forget to CC me on them
though so I can keep an eye on things. FYI I will need a sub to play for New
England as Daniele is out of town until Monday and can only play during the day
which I can’t do. If you want to
take a shot at me, let me know and I will give you my availability. Game files
are located on the website and are ready for week 4.
Please make sure you get started on game contacts asap, home teams should
make contact by Wednesday and the game should be set up no later than Thursday
of each week.
I can’t
stress enough that you 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 moving along if it is missing at the
deadline.
***There is a new game update available on the website, dated
8/10/17 ***
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 enough names as the more injuries the more
likely someone else already grabbed the guy 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.
