☆PLAYER UPGRADES
During the course of the season users can gain a +1 ratings upgrades for players for certain things. IE picking GOTW winner, having a player on their team win POTW, streaming thier game to name a few. Any +1 can be used for any ratings except for "physical ablities" like speed, throw power, strength etc.
In game scenarios where users can earn development upgrades for players may be earned in a future game if their game for said scenario is set as a FW or they can't play it for whatever the reason. If this situation presents itself the user MUST take a Screenshot or photo of the upgrade scenario that shows what the player needs to accomplish. Send photo to player-development-upgrade and tag the commish team.
☆STREAMING
Regular season games are optional to stream, but users can earn +1 for players if they do.
Playoff games are mandatory stream by visiting team. In the event the visiting team can't stream, they must ask to see if the home team can stream. If neither team can stream the game, it will be a FS game. ***don't be that dude!!!!!
GOTW: game of the week games are a mandatory stream also and fall under the same ruling as playoff games if noone can stream.

☆LEAGUE ACTIVITY
We want to keep an active fun league that can progress at a regular schedule. User activity will be monitored. In the event a user is unresponsive to game channles to schedule games that result in their opponmet getting a FW the user will be put on an inactive warning list after 2 consecutive games of being inactive. A 3rd consecutive game results in an automatic boot from the league. Users who make the warning list more than once In a season will be subject to a player trait downgrade at the discretion of the commish team.
☆GAME SCHEDULING and FW/FS
Schedule early, things always come up so if you schedule early the chance of rescheduling is far greater than waiting to the last minute. Users have 24 hours to set a gametime. If either user does not reply in the first 24 hours to another user. The user trying to schedule gets the FW
Once a game is scheduled between 2 users. If either user does not make the scheduled time within 15 minutes AND no notice to their opponent of not being able to make it. A FW will be awarded to the user that was available. If a game time can not be set for whatever reason the game will be a FS.
FS do not fall into the category of the league activity rule as long as both user were trying to schedule a tike.
In the event your opponent can play your game and you need a FW. Please use the appropriate channel to request your FW. fw-requests The commish team does not have time to sift thru every game channel, read them, to decide if a game is a Fw or FS. If your FW request is not put in the appropriate channel you will risk it being a FS instead.
☆FORMAL COMPLAINTS OF RULE BREAKING
ANY complaints of users breaking any league rules must be put in the appropriate channel. rules-violations accompanied with video/stream footage of the infraction. No video??? Don't waste the commish teams time without video proof. Without the video it is just a case of hear say.
