1. No Inside Offense.

3. Start your best players and maintain reasonable option choices. There is room for experimentation at my discretion. No...
The purpose of this forum is to propose changes to the league rules. This forum was blessed by Ashes on our day of the Sim God the 13th of September, 2024, in this post: h/t to Ashes for the punny forum name.
Please read the below for full details on how to...
Right now, the trade deadline is whenever Ashes can do the Day 100-110 sim. This leads to:
uncertainty as to when the deadline actually is and how much time left we have to make deals
ashes being harassed by GMs (read: me) for a few extra minutes to complete a trade
Proposal: Prevent future RPs from being traded before the time horizon in which they are allowed to be moved.
Context: Right now, teams will try post TC trades, in which they are trading RPs that don't apply to their current trade cap for a current asset, pick or player. It's obvious...
Hello again! In two seasons, we will have a newly-implemented GMOTY committee that will provide a bit more structure around the award. However, the award itself is still overpowered. As mentioned in my prior proposal, the rule was ported over from SLOR, where there was no Hard Cap. In this...
We brought GMOTY virtually unchanged from SLOR to SLN. Currently, every playoff team is considered a candidate, and the league uses normal voting to determine a winner. GMs are incentivized with RP to vote for a candidate and to explain their choice in a post. The winner is given a...
Proposal: If a rules proposal has cleared a 70% threshold one way or the other (Yes/No) after two full weeks - or one full season, whichever is faster - have passed, that matter is settled.
Reason: Not enough people are voting for or against rule changes and thus it is hard to...
Jesse is destroying our country league with his cheating and negative attitude. I think I can speak for us all when I say he has irreparably ruined our favorite pastime.
Btw, can someone really hate trading RP so much? What's that about? For someone who supposedly hates tampering... Look in a...
Proposed Rule Change: Encouraging Mid-Career Player Development
As I covered in more depth in this article , so much of our game revolves around the RP economy - how it's generated, how it's managed, and how it's spent. Spending RP needs to lead to clear benefits for each GM, but just as...
The goal of SLN was to create Nirvana, a league where 29 out of 29 GMs were active, engaged, competitive, contributed to the league consistently, and got along well as a group of friends of friends. I think, in large part thanks to all of the GMs, we’re close to that vision - but in my opinion,...
Hey everyone - thanks for your thoughts and opinions on this potential rule change — here is the formal proposal post, following our new guidelines for these types of rule changes (thanks again to Tong).
Description of the Issue
The current FBB lottery system is dated and creates narrow...

I started writing this day 60 then got sidetracked then had a bunch of travels so did this in transit. Was initially going to insult all 29 teams in opposite fashion of Hoff, but leaving that one up to you Joe! Thanks to Hoff for the inspiration though, we need more content and in your knight in...
