Again that is my fault as I have only been recently enforcing the penalies for overusages and then just on the playoff teams. I am now putting everyone on notice that we are going to strick 100% use. All players that r in the useage chart in game (under PA) that has anything over 100% will be fined. If the useage is high then I think we will take Lou and Don's suggestion that instead of 41 player limit it will be lowered to 40 while everyone's else team will be 41. The more the overage and more than 1 player over then will be dropped to 2 roster spots. The problem is that managers would rather overuse than to not use all the PA/IP. I had most of my best players underused rather than go over as others. I have let it slide but your comments in ref to useage tells me that you want me to be strict. Again my fault and will try to do better, ROBERT

My apologies, I do still put forward the suggestions for consideration as i believe they would increase the realism and tone down the over abundance of offence in our 20 team league.

The only limit is catchers (which was changed before sombb came out with rule to play out of position and Lou discoveried that a team had gone all season without a 2nd catcher on his roster at all to having to have 2 on the 25 man roster each month). I had all this changed and even had the rosters changed to 41 players. Since I lost that I started making changes again (most of them ones you sent me after making changes to them that included the optional I stink draft etc.) but I most not have emailed the corrected copies before the crash. I started making the changes again when all the errors on the new site became the new #1 on my list. Guys this is my fault AGAIN and will try to make changes to old rules ASAP but am working on getting the stink draft done and hopefully the email draft (which has 24 hr time limit from the time on the email or on the site. Thank Blaine for your assist and reminding me that I have so much to be done before the March live draft. Sorry,ROBERT ---------- Original Message ---------- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: Re: NOMBL-Stink Draft Date: Mon, 23 Jan 2012 17:30:40 -0500 (EST) Hello NOMBL constitution: 1.6: Each team shall always carry a minimum of two regular players at each defensive position on their 41 man roster.During each month each team shall carry 1 player at each position as well as: a second catcher and enough utility players to cover 2B, SS and 3B.These positions can all be covered by 1 regular player if he is capable. As we begin our season with the stink draft i thought i would bring this rule to our attention. A quick check of last years computer managers will show instances of this rule not being followed. I believe it's an over site and not intentional. It does however put those of us who follow the rule and keep light hitting infielders and backup catchers on our rosters each month at a disadvantage. Also i think it would make sense at some point to adapt a rule that the starting lineup must have players that are carded at the position their starting at. If after they play at least one inning in the field and get at least one at bat or are injured only then they can they be moved or replaced. The only exception would be DH's who would be able to play first base only. On this i must plead guilty as i was among those that started a player at an uncarded position last year. Many of the leagues on the Flory site have similar language in their constitutions. It adds to the realism of the game. As there are only 20 teams in our league there are more than enough players to go around. Managers could make changes soon enough anyways. They would however pay a price by depleting their bench to bring in an unqualified "big hitter" later on. As in MLB it would more fairly value players for their versatility. Strat-o-matic will this year have a "remainder of game only" injury option. Perhaps to avoid the confusion that injuries seem to cause we could use this option.

Geneva FIJI Norfolk Buffalo 3) Where do we find a list of the players that are in the Stink Draft? there was a list sent to everyone as each team made cuts which included released players. I have asked Lou or Jack to handle but havent heard back from either one yet. 4) What is the email part of the draft you reference? For appx four yrs we start the draft by email (usually b4 now) and guessing NICK can/will set the site up for making the picks on line and whatever rounds we dont finish by the 3rd Sat in March will be completed w time limits. 5) The Geneva Cubs have made all cuts. 6) If we take a player in the Stink Draft we must cut a player correct? Yes which means that the other teams now may draft that player also. Thanks Don Geneva From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: Friday, January 20, 2012 8:31 AM To: [email protected] Subject: I stink draft will begin on Wednesday Jan 25th if not before then. Carl's hard drive is down again but since he has made his cuts will be able to hold the draft anyway. If we have to we can do by email and I can make the changes on the site. Then shortly we will begin our email part of the draft. NICK can we use the site to learn how to draft before the Live draft in March (24th). This would be w/o time limit whereas the live draft will be 5 min limit I think and maybe for those that want to try entering draft list on the site might be good time to learn as any mistakes can be corrected w/o stopping the draft. Also since Jack has suggested we use the site to draft this yr........................... The cost is $2 more per team and NICK please tell us how payment is made (by team or 1 person PIF) and by means it needs to be (form of pmt). If cuts are not made on the site by Tuesday 24th then will be fined your lowest picks and they will be made for you. Sorry. Lou or Jack would either like to do the draft which would include making sure all teams are at roster limits on the site (picks and players) ASAP.
