The strat version of zoning laws and school prayers and low income housing and borders. And like the real world some fellas sit pretty tall in their high horses looking down their long noses. Life at all levels is about advantages. Sometimes their are rules. We have rules . They are being altered. Fine. I saw no one breaking past rules. I saw people , in their own way , gaming those rules . I am currently playing four seasons. I believe all with tcochran, as he is the best commish. In the other three leagues I am doing well. All teams were built with eyes for the future,accepting and yes even welcoming lost seasons to build with multiple high picks . I like it like that . If it fits in the league rules and strat engine it is legal no matter what Mother Teresa thinks



Wilmurr, I you need to realize the only reason you feel like people are looking down their noses at you is because you are looking up at them from the low road you so willingly take.

After reviewing the extended discussion in the league chat -- and the playoff-style weights used in some other leagues -- I propose a tiered system in the following amendment to the rules:

Effective with the draft for the 2012 card set, draft order is determined by the previous regular season win/loss records and playoff records, as follows:
- The 8 teams with the worst W/L records will have the first 8 picks in the draft, with the sequence determined by a straight lottery; a random number generator, such as that at http://www.draftpicklottery.com/, will be used to determine the order of the first 8 picks
- The draft sequence for the next 8 teams will be in reverse order, worst-record first, NFL style*
- The draft sequence for the 8 teams in the playoffs will be determined by their playoff results, with those eliminated in the quarter-finals* followed by those eliminated in the semi-finals*, followed by the league runner-up at #23 and the champion at #24

* Ties between teams will be handled as in the League Setup rules

Since "all rule changes must pass by a super majority of 16 owners or more", it will take 16 YES votes to pass this measure. Shall the amendment be approved?
