I. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER

 

Week 4 is done, things are still working quite well, games getting done on time and subs helping out where needed, that is all I can ever ask from you guys. Hopefully we are having some fun as well and it appears that we have a bunch of teams who are REALLY happy as they all have yet to get their first loss.  Two teams get their first loss and were the teams most probably picked to have maybe the longest streak to start the season, but we have some good new teams rolling on.  On the other end, we still have 5 teams searching for their first win and hopefully that will see some changes over the next 4 games as we move towards the halfway point of the season.  Good luck to all and keep up that good work!

 

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 09/14/20 *** 

 

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.
