Franchise Wars League Draft

 

 

 

  • The draft is an offline Google Sheets draft where all 15 owners select 2 MLB Franchises in a randomized snake format.
    • The team name MUST consist of both MLB Franchises in some fashion, for example:
      • Pittsburgh Dodgers
      • Oakland Mets
      • Tamba Bay Mariners
    • Cities with more than one team (i.e., New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago) CAN NOT be used in your team name since there is no way to know which franchise you have rights to claim visually by the other managers.
  • After the Google Sheets draft, all owners will be added to Fantrax.
    • Once given Fantrax access, each owner will be responsible for adding players to their team from the player pool.
      • The league commissioner will be double-checking all teams.
    • A 3-day lock period will be given to all owners to claim players to their team out of the player pool. 
      • After the 3-day lock period, if an MLB player is traded in real life, the NEW team will have access rights to the player in question.
    • At ANY point, if a player is released from their MLB team, the player in question will be automatically removed from the player pool.
  • If Fantrax has the wrong team listed for a player (i.e., the player was traded or released and signed with a new team), let the league commissioner know ASAP so they can contact Fantrax to have the issue resolved.

Franchise Wars League Minors Eligibility Enforcement

 

  • After a grace period of 1 day, the owner will be prevented from attempting to make all transactions except for moving the player out of the minors slot and dropping any player. Claims already pending, such as waiver claims, will not be canceled and will get processed normally.

Contents: Finances | Rosters | Scoring | Drafts | Waivers | Trades | Postseason | Offseason

Franchise Wars League Trades

Dynasty Sports Empire reserves the right to manage and maintain the integrity and longevity of its leagues by issuing judgments made by the Dynasty Sports Empire Administrative team. League changes, rulings, and outcomes may be overturned at any time if the Administration does not believe the said outcome was in the best interest of the league. Administration voting occurs and decides the outcome of any scenario that may be deemed inappropriate or not in the league’s best interest. Dynasty Sports Empire reserves the right to change, alter, or amend any league guideline at any time. 

 

Fair Play and Conduct

 

While fantasy sports is usually an extremely competitive endeavor, it is important to remember that enjoyment of the game is predicated on a certain level of sportsmanship displayed by the participants. Occasionally, some team owners intentionally or unknowingly cross the line.

 

PRIZE-ELIGIBLE & SPORTSMANSHIP RULES

 

A: More than one team in the same league

 

One person can’t control more than one team in the same league. If two or more teams in the same league are under the same account, they must be controlled by different people sharing that account, but not sharing the teams. Violation of this will lead to the cancellation of the teams and expulsion from the game.

 

If an owner finds himself in this situation by accident, he/she should e-mail the League Office immediately and explain the situation.

 

B: Collusive transactions

 

Collusion occurs when one team makes moves to benefit another team, without trying to improve its own position. One-sided trades are an obvious example of this. Another example is when a player drop is made so another team can pick up that player. Teams found in violation of this policy will be canceled and their owners prohibited from participating in future Fantasy Games.

 

C: Impeding other owners

 

Certain transactions made solely to impede other owners are not allowed. Tanking games for the sole purpose of denying another player’s chance to make the playoffs is against the rules. In particular, cycling through players in free agency to put them on waivers and make them unavailable to other teams in your league is strictly prohibited and is grounds for expulsion from the game.

 

D: Roster Dumping

 

Owners that are found to have dumped their players to the player pool in an attempt to undermine the league may be subject to expulsion from the game. If you are giving up on the season, we ask that you maintain league strength by providing the other owners with the most competitive team you are able to field.

 

E: Owner interaction

 

Owners should always be polite and gracious when dealing with one another. Threats and obscenities are not only against the Rules, they are illegal in many jurisdictions. Owners that are found to have sent a threatening email to another owner will be warned and/or kicked out of the game completely. This extends to message board posts as well.

 

F: Offensive posts

 

Any posts of a derogatory nature are strictly prohibited, whether it is in a chat room, message board, or on a league’s bulletin board. This includes personal attacks and sexist or racist remarks. There will be a zero-tolerance level – if someone in your league is violating this policy, please contact the League Office.

 

G: Inactivity

 

In order to maintain the integrity of the league, the commissioner may contact owners of teams that remain inactive for extended periods of time. The commissioner will send a notification to the email of record. Shortly thereafter, if the team remains inactive, the commissioner reserves the right to reassign ownership of the inactive team.

 

H: Daily Lineups

 

Deliberately choosing to start incomplete or weak lineups (a.k.a. tanking) is classified as unsportsmanlike and is grounds for removal from a league.

 

I: Free Agent Moves

 

Free-agent moves for reasons other than the improvement of the owner’s fantasy team are classified as unsportsmanlike and will be reversed by the league commissioner. Repeated violations of unsportsmanlike free agent moves will result in the owners’ removal from the league.

 

If an owner refuses to comply with the sportsmanship rules, or that an owner has acted in an unsportsmanlike manner, Dynasty Sports Empire reserves the right to disqualify the owner and/or remove that owner from the league without a refund. All decisions by Dynasty Sports Empire will be final.

 

REMEMBER: The game is fun! Creating confrontation in your league inevitably leads to a bad game experience for all involved. Play hard, but play fair!

 

Dynasty Sports Empire acts as the League Manager for all Prize-Eligible Leagues. The League Manager has the power to rule on all aspects of Dynasty Sports Empire’s Fantasy Baseball game, including but not limited to League business, player trades, infractions of these rules, and disputes among franchise owners.

 

The League Commissioner will investigate all overall winners for collusion before awarding overall prizes and it has the right to disqualify owners or remove them from the league if deemed necessary.

 

The decisions of the League Commissioner shall be final and irreversible. The League Commissioner has the right to make any necessary changes to the game and rules as the season progresses. Any changes will be properly noted on the homepage of the league.
