PS3 3star Prestige w/The Big 4
1. Introduction
I’m starting a 12 man/3 star prestige dynasty using the big 4 (Bigten, ACC, SEC, and Pac-12). I’m going to move PITT/Syracuse into the ACC and Texas A&M/Missouri to the SEC. We have 5 members located in the CST and 1 on the west coast. All 6 members are in their mid-30’s looking for a similar age group to compete against. Please respond with psn id, email address, and age. Conference and teams will be decided once I have 12.

2.1 Advancement
Every 48 hours. A Commissioner should only wait to advance if one player is mid-game at the time of advancement. Otherwise, Advancement goes on regardless if someone isn't done. Teams not finished will be placed on auto-pilot for the advancement period and removed immediately after advancement.
If a player misses 5 straight advances, they are removed from the dynasty.
2.2 Scheduling
I will keep the schedules that are assigned except for removing FCS games for unranked teams.
3. Website:
It’s very important to have a method of communication outside of the game. This is what separates 6 season+ dynasties from ones that don't even get to the bowl games. E-mail is a must and I will set up a facebook group for the league.
4. Black and White Rules:
These are Game play Rules that are clearly defined and have a set of penalties attached. The Commissioner is tasked with enforcing these rules strictly with the assigned penalties.
4.1 Restarts (against CPU)
Restarting CPU games is forbidden. If a player has to restart a game because of Power Outage, loss of connection, etc. the player must Message the Commissioner (either via PS3 messaging, e-mail, or facebook) BEFORE the player can restart the game. The Commissioner has the right to deny the request of a restart if the Commissioner has reason to believe the restart is solely an attempt to win a game the user was losing.
1st Penalty: Game results thrown out, game simulated. Private Warning.
2nd Penalty: Game results thrown out, game simulated. Public warning posted to dynasty forum.
3rd Penalty: Game results thrown out, game simulated. Public warning posted to dynasty forum. User is placed on Auto-Pilot for next 3 games (even if it is User v. user games).
4th Penalty: Removal from Dynasty.
4.2 Missing Advancement:
It is acceptable to occasionally miss games. However, if a user is expected to miss multiple advancements consecutively, the user is expected to notify Commissioner and be placed on auto-pilot (or place themselves on auto pilot). If you miss several weeks without notification, you will be penalized.
Miss 5 straight Advances: Removal from Dynasty.
These penalties will not apply if you notify Commissioner you will miss several advances (such as going out of town on business).
4.3 The "Filibuster"
This is a tactic I've seen used in my OD in the past. The filibuster is basically refusing to respond to requests to play a user vs user game, (usually hoping simulated results favor you over playing the game). This is not easy to detect, but is expressly prohibited. If a user A receives a message from user B, and User B doesn't respond even though he has been on ps3 actively, this is a sign of the filibuster. If a user claims to be filibustered, they can notify Commissioner. The Commissioner should message the accused, demanding that both players agree on a time to play. If the Accused User doesn't respond, they can be placed on auto-pilot. If they do respond, but refuse to play, they are removed from the dynasty. If the accused responds after being placed on auto-pilot but before advancement, then the existing game results can be thrown out and both users can play. However, if a user is on PS3 repeatedly, but still doesn't respond, it is a sign of a Filibuster, which can result in immediate removal.
4.4 User vs User restarts:
User vs. User restarts (Note, if both parties’ agree to a different set of rules between the two of them that is fine. These are just guidelines if agreement can't be reached). The person winning the game can request a Score reset or decide to replay game straight up. Score reset: If a player is leading by 14 when disconnect occurs, then the player who is losing must begin the restarted game by giving the player who was winning 14 points. You don't need to make the score for both teams the same, only ensure the score difference stays the same.
5. Judgment Calls
-Penalties: All of these rules are penalized at the discretion of the Commissioner and can be penalized at any level from warnings to removal from dynasty. All decisions by the Commissioner are final.
6. NOTES:
This document can be amended at anytime. Notification of the Changes will be posted to the website.
