Just a couple updates. I know lots of people tend to just check up on the transaction hub and bid on free agents but rules also need to be looked at as well from time to time to refresh yourself.
New to the Rules is General Manager Conduct Code, please read this over and assert yourselves as so:
http://www.profsl.com/smf/index.php?topic=15046.0As this section of free agency commences please refresh yourself on these areas:
Free Agency Bidding:
Bidding remains open for 48 hours after the last successful bid, after which time the bidding will be closed. Any bids made after the 48 hour window will be disregarded. If you are persuing a free agent please make timely bids.
Contracts:
Except for any contract inherited in 2010, all contracts must be no longer than five years. Also, for a given salary, all contacts (extension, FA) have term limits (max years contract can be per the salary) as provided below.
Maximum Years
<= $1.4m, 2 years
$1.5m - $5.4m, 3 years
$5.5m - $7.9m, 4 years
>=$8m, 5 years (the overall limit)
Prospects:
Entry Draft Contracts
The Entry Draft Contracts will follow these values and vary in length from 1 to 3 years.
Draft Position - Salary
1 thru 5 - 3.0M
6 thru 10 - 2.5M
10 thru 20 - 2.0M
21 thru 25 - 1.5M

101 thru 120 -200k
Draftees will be placed onto the MiLR, however, if they exceed the 40 GP limit, they must be given a rookie contract based upon draft position. Draft position will be tracked under the team rosters.
Extensions:
These must follow the ranking system along with the above contract guidelines.

Also each team is in possesion of 4 draft picks for this years entry draft. These picks can also be included in trades and will now be tracked on your rosters.
