The new charter and latest spreadsheet are on the main page.
2010/2011 NoVarks Charter (Added Sept. 2)
2010/2011 Pre-season Spreadsheet. New and improved! (Last updated Sept. 2)
There's a fair amount of new stuff in the charter. I've left the track changes on there to make it obvious.
In particular, a few loop-hole closures and other minor things that weren't voted on. If you have a serious objection to these things, bring it up.
I hope this is good shitter-readin' material for all. Understand it. Ask questions, etc.
Highlights and new things to focus on:
#6 & 7: better description for collusion and 'circumvention' w/ defined penalties.
#13: Additional penalties for finishing last and 2nd last.
#15: Official definition of a 'Rookie'
#18: Bi-weekly active-roster changes (#18a. specifies a limit of 20 such moves. I don't think we need this, and would prefer to remove this rule.)
#23a: Added a salary cap 'lower-limit' to prevent malicious prospect hoarding.
#27c: Still with the 5-point swing....
#33: A limit of 10 trades per season. Believe it or not, this was suggested last year by both Steve and Jesse.
#35a: Clarification: for the upcoming trade window, you may trade picks up to 2012.
#37b: Loop-hole closed. No blatant future-consideration trades.
#48: Defined the rookie keeper rules.
#51c: How rookie keepers turn into regulars, with respect to the 4-year contract.
Right after the lotto, I'll send out an updated spreadsheet w/ complete 19-round draft order with all the traded picks, etc.
That is all. Happy readin'! See you at the lotto.
