Overview: League Mission Statement
10YF is a sim league. We're all grownups and know that some of the things we see on Sundays aren't sim, but they also aren't limited by AI and legacy issues that we're plagued with in Madden, we don't want to have a league full of rules and regulations, but if any player has too many complaints, ramifications are listed below. That being said, the following rules are in place to maintain a sim environment for all to enjoy, hopefully they will act as a baseline for your playstyle rather than alterations that you need to make to your game. These rules are not all inclusive, and owners may be punished for doing things not listed below if it's not consistent with our simulation style goals. Most fall into the realm of 'DON'T ATTEMPT TO ABUSE THE A.I'. We feel we are offering a lot more freedom than some of the other successful leagues here on OS. All we ask is that you refrain from abusing this privelege. i.e. You should only have to look at the gameplay rules once and verify that's the way you play, if not, this league probably isn't the league for you.
-Difficulty: All-Pro with slider and penalty adjustments(Slightly modified Armor & Sword set)
-Quarter Length: 12 minute quarters with 17 second accelerated clock
-Gamespeed: Slow
-Game Settings: Defensive Graphics: Off Kick-Arc: Off Camera Toggle: On Post Play: Off
-CCM Mode: Coach, new coaches will be created for every team so as not to give any team an advantage
-We WILL allow custom playbooks in a limited fashion(2 additional formations, for an additional 3rd, with committee's approval, you need to remove one from the current playbook.
*10YF advances every 72 hours, unless all games are completed prior to advance time. Extensions are limited to only extreme circumstances at the commissioner's discretion.
*The Weekly Scheduling Thread in our OS forum should be used to schedule all games. If a time is agreed upon using other means (GroupMe, etc.), the time should still be posted in the Weekly Scheduling Thread with both owners verifying.
League Rules:
Spoiler
I. Gameplay Rules
1. 10YF is a ''no-switch league''. This means users are not to switch players when the ball is thrown until a player has made contact with the ball. There should be no user catches on offense, and the only user interceptions should come from the defender that was being user controlled at the beginning of the play.
2. SuperSim is NOT allowed. It is a horribly glitched feature in the game that gives unrealistic stats. If you have a CPU game, either play the CPU, or take the sim beforehand.
3. We would like all games streamed, but this will ESPECIALLY be the case vs. CPU. If for whatever reason you can not stream then try to let a commish know before the game.
-If you have a concern about another player or believe they are breaking rules, if resolution can not be reached via PS+ between owners, please contact the commissioner privately with the concern along with any evidence and we will investigate the issue. Issues are NOT to be aired out in league threads.
Offense
1. When taking the snap from under center, quarterbacks should not throw the ball until they have completed at least a three step drop.
2. As a general rule, run plays designed to go between the guards should not be bounced outside the tackles. Obviously, there are extenuating circumstances to every situation, but this should not be a steady part of your run game.
3. Zigzag running is not allowed. Making a cut or two is fine, but running back and forth to manipulate poor AI pursuit angles is not. This includes open field runs.
4. When a wide receiver is put in motion, the ball is not to be snapped when the wide receiver is behind the offensive line. However, as we see it on Sundays, TE's are legal in this situation between the Tackle and Guard.
5. 4th down conversions should only be attempted when the game calls for it. If you wouldn't see an NFL team do it, you shouldn't either. There is absolutely NO reason to go for it on 4th down in the first half on your own side of the field. All we ask is you keep it realistic. If people fail to do that then we will have to enforce more stringent guidelines.
6. No huddle offense is for the teams that run it naturally, but if it's to be a normal part of the gameplan, the ball cannot be snapped before the playclock has been run down to 20 seconds to allow the defense to make adjustments.
7. After calling a play, offenses are not to hurry to the line and snap the ball right away unless the play clock is under five seconds.
8. Variety in play calling is a must, calling the same plays/route combinations on every third down is not allowed.
9. Playaction in obvious passing situations is not allowed. Because of AI issues, defenses bite too hard on playaction in passing situations for this to be realistic. You can still call playaction plays in passing situations by hot routing the HB as it negates the playaction.
10. Fakes: Fakes are meant to catch your opponent off guard and should on occasion. No team should have more than 3-4 fakes ran per season, it just doesn't happen.
11. The ONLY time a player can be lined up out of position is when using the preprogrammed sub packages using the Right stick.
12. If you would like to apply to have a player moved to another position officially in the offseason, you must post it in the Position Changes thread and wait on a commissioner to give approval. We will only allow realistic changes.
II. Player Transactions
A. Signing Contracts - All players resigned, or signed in offseason free agency, must receive 25% of their contract by way of a signing bonus if:
a. The contract is three seasons or longer in length
b. The contract is worth $2 million or more per season
B. Signed or resigned players must not receive contracts longer than five seasons unless that is what the player is asking for. If a team has a player requesting a contract longer than five seasons, they must contact the commissioner with a picture of the request to receive permission to sign the player to a longer contract.
C. Contracts that don't meet Rule 1 and 2 will be released into free agency and the offending team will have to eat any penalties associated with the cut and will not be allowed to sign that player until after the next offseason free agency period.
Trades
A. All trades must be APPROVED by a committee. Members must submit their trade proposals via PM on OS or GroupMe to get approved. Do not post a trade in public until it has been approved.
B. Only one trade will be allowed during the season and this player must be UNDER a 90 OVR. In the offseason you are allowed a max of 2 trades with NO OVR restrictions. All trades will be reviewed by our trade commission for approval. Subsequently, after season 1, new owners with less than one season (16 games) experience with their team must PM their trade to the commissioner for approval. Failure to follow this rule may result in you having to undo the trade and take cap penalties.
*In-season* is from the beginning of preseason until the trade deadline
*Off-season* is from post Super Bowl until the advance to the new season
C. Trades may be a combination of the following:
* Single player for single player
* Pick(s) for pick(s)
* Single player for pick(s)
* [Single player + single pick] for pick(s)
* [Single player + pick(s)] for [single player+ pick(s)]
D. Players who can’t be traded:
* Rookies
* Players in the 1st year of their contract. (No sign & trade situations)
E. Trading with the CPU is allowed, but will be up to the descretion of trade committee.
F. Teams are required to keep 53 players on their active roster at all points during the regular season. No team in the NFL would go into a game with less than 53, and we will not either in OSV.
G. Teams are required to keep 53 players on their active roster at all points during the regular season.
The discipline used for rule infractions can include but is not limited to:
1. Warning
2. Suspension of player(s)
3. Being set to AutoPilot for a predetermined number of games
4. Removal from league
Season 1, 2, 4 will be full play seasons
- Preseason weeks 1 & 3 will be played. 72 hour advance for all weeks.
Season 3 will be a sim season
