>> If an exploit is found down the road that you've been using, you will be booted immediately.
3.) QB SCRAMBLING:
>> QB's may not immediately sprint out of the pocket to game the passing angles/defense for an easy throw outside of called bootlegs. Sim play as your QB is mandated.
>> Should you be flushed from the pocket, or be scrambling to avoid a sack, anything goes, that's legit. Learn to be aware of the pocket, and the only time you should be leaving the pocket on a pass are the two situations above, pressure and bootlegs.
>> Continuously dropping straight back to avoid pressure is not sim. Learn to use the right stick to dodge defenders.
4.) PLAY-CALLING:
>> Mix up play calling on both offense and defense. Expand your playbook by trying new plays and formations in Practice Mode if you're not comfortable with a big playbook.
>> Defenses must rush a minimum of 3 players at all times. A QB Spy is not considered a rusher
5.) TEMPO:
>> No huddle is allowed at any time.
6.) DISCONNECTS:
>> Only the two owners playing the game really know how the flow of the game was going. Should a disconnect happen, please take the time to discuss how to proceed ... If you both agree, fantastic!
>> If you can't come to an agreement then the game will be simmed or a force win will be awarded based on commish investigation. . If the game disconnects with 2 minutes or less left in the game the win will be given to the team if the lead is 17+.
>>> If at any point the game disconnects the user that is up has the right to retain all points, unless both users to a set number of points or a fresh start.
>>> Career Ending injuries

*KILLING CLOCK-Reserved for the last 3 minutes of the 1st half, and the last 3 minutes of the 4th Qtr... Nobody wants to play a boring game where a player is killing clock in the 3rd Qtr.
* **NO CHEWING CLOCK IN OT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE***
*4th DOWN RULES
4th and 3 at or past the 50
4th and 1 from anywhere

YOU GET ONE OPPORTUNITY TO GO FOR IT AT ANY POINT ONCE PER HALF!!
Whether you make it or not does not matter. After that one call you are restricted to the above 4th down rules for the the remainder of the game.
****DEPTH CHART- Madden does not implement a change in stats to reflect position changes; therefore, you are not allowed to switch a WR to TE or make any other similar substitution that takes advantage of this game flaw.

The following position changes will NOT need approval.
SS to or from FS
CB to Safety
RE to or from LE
All LB positions are interchangeable
DT to or from DE
LB to or from DE
All OL moves (LT to C, LG to C, etc)
The following position changes WILL need approval.

Banned Position Changes

****If you feel your opponents are breaking the rules, simply RECORD IT or Screenshot and DM evidence to a Commisioner. We will not discuss or deliberate serious issues in main chat. It only gets everyone involved and hinder progress towards a solution.
24 hour contact rule: Every user has 24 hrs from each advance to set up a reasonable game time with their opponent for the current week. If you fail to reach out to your current opponent, you will be placed on auto.
****3 and out rule: If you have to be placed on auto for a 3rd consecutive week, you will be booted from the league and replaced.
****No Quitting! We don't care if the game is 72-10, finish the game! People care about their stats. No giving up and/or "throwing the game" when you are getting your ass beat. ( examples: jumping offsides, allowing TDs, intentionally throwing interceptions, etc.)
****If you release a player you cannot sign him until TWO ADVANCES after you release him.
***wagering of picks and/or players is prohibited...only legitimate transactions (trades that benefit both teams, Free agency) will be allowed***
Smack talk is fine, but attacks on families will not be tolerated. Lets keep the jokes on the person and their game.
