Winner of coin toss is player 1 and chooses tier. Loser of coin toss chooses team from tier player 1 selected or a lower tier. Winner of coin toss chooses team second from tier originally chosen or lower tier. 2. 49ers are allowed for group play. 3. We will not keep track of teams used during group play. Choose the team that best suits you in group play under the tier list guidelines. 4. Customizing Playbooks and Lineup Changes. You are allowed to change your selected team's playbook before each game. Checking the change / substitution screen is allowed during gameplay. Once per quarter for each player is the recommendation. 5. WR/TE at RB: A WR/TE cannot carry the football unless it is a reverse. You can insert a WR or TE into a RB slot for lead blocking purposes, but he cannot carry the football. To further clarify, players such as Ernest Givins, Ricky Sanders, and Andre Rison cannot carry the football unless it is a reverse. 6. No ties. If a game is tied when regulation concludes, a new game will be started until someone scores first. Sudden Death! 7. Defensive Lineman Lurching is prohibited. In this tournament, lurching is defined by user controlling a defensive lineman, not engaging a blocker, then diving at the quarterback or running back. If you go around the offensive line, you are allowed to dive at the quarterback. Going through the offensive line is permitted with a defensive lineman, but diving at quarterback or running back would be considered lurching. 8. Nintendo Malfunctions: If there is an equipment failure in the first half, games will be replayed from the start. If equipment malfunctions in the 2nd half, only the second half is replayed. In that event, the scores from each half are added together to obtain a final score. If the game was uncompetitive or the equipment malfunctioned due to human error, the tourney organizers reserve the right to declare a winner without replaying any portion of the game. 9. Tournament Disputes: Tom Stahnke is the tournament referee. He will decide all disputes unless he is a player in the game. If he is a player in the disputed game, Francis Buennagel will resolve the dispute. 10. Competitors are allowed to bring their own controller, but it has to be an official Nintendo rectangle controller, official Nintendo dogbone controller, or the official Hyperkin Cadet NES controller.

Here is the sheets everyone filled out. Had a few people request them. New Doc 2018-09-26 12.14.29.pdf

i wonder tho if this idea, IF applied over the course of a few seasons, would increase the overall juice of the rom? and it was already pretty juicy, imo and notwithstanding conditions and injuries... so maybe, going forward, if not doing it this draft, i would propose increasing the price of players/tandems drafted in the first 3 rounds to go up $2, everyone else drafted after that $1, and undrafteds drop $1 (but not less than .5)... or some other smarter idea to help balance or even diminish the juice... also proposing we bump the $0 players up to .5 and just make that our universal floor.

Ok so CFT discussions have started to ramp up and the main topic has been draft values and how to keep them lively and sustainable. Per @manYo720's idea, we will have all the values from the previous draft altered in the following way. If a tandem was drafted, their draft value is +$1, If a tandem was not drafted, the value is -$1. For the values that are $1 and below, I added this personal addendum (with help from @XtraLargent's idea) that they won't go down to $0, rather the $1 values will go down to 0.5. As for my own addendum to that, I just put that any value at $0.5 that was not drafted will just remain the same until they are drafted, as I don't want a bunch of $0 tandems. Here is a link to what that would look like with an edited copy of the Season 2 draft sheet. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1GcIveZ72n6tTQxJcc9dv0yiUmdZ4kGzo5IlAfUiA1XQ/edit?usp=sharing
