Codifying the rules for our fantasy football league.

• Teams may keep a player for 5 * (number of years they've been on your roster) + last year's auction value
• Teams may keep 0, 1, or 2 players
• Teams have until exactly 1 hour before the auction to set their keepers. Failure to do so means you forfeit your keepers.
• A player who was drafted, dropped, and picked up by another team has a "last year auction value" of what the team acquired him for in the waiver auction, and thus may be kept for ($5 + amount paid for in waiver auction).
• If a player was traded, they may be kept for ($5 + auction value)

• Trade deadline is firm, it's your responsibility to be aware of it (no extensions).
• Trades can be vetoed by any 5 teams voting against it
• A trade takes 2 days to clear (keep that in mind for Thursday games later in the season!)

• Teams are divided into 6 team conferences
• The top 3 teams from each conference make the playoffs
• The top teams from each conference are seeds #1 and #2 and get a first round bye
  • This happens even if another team has a better record or would win a tiebreaker with the other team (ie, one division is stacked and the other sucks)
• After the top two, the remaining four teams are seeded based on record and tiebreakers, regardless of division

• overall record
• total points for
• head to head
• ESPN gets to decide after that

• 50 entry fee
• 1st place: everything else
• 2nd place: entry fee back
• Everyone else: nothing
