1.3 Code of Conduct
It’s understood that the Dynasty Fantasy Baseball League is a place that encourages the competitive spirit and promotes an atmosphere that is conducive to do everything one can in a fantasy setting to have the best team possible. However, there are some ground rules to follow in order to assure that we are all treated in a civic and respectful manner.
- Be nice. This is a competitive league, and we all like a good fight, but let's remain civil at all times in order to promote an atmosphere of fun within the league.
- Be helpful whenever possible.
- Always strive to remain calm. Any problems or disputes will be handled in a timely fashion. Don't take things personally if a decision is made that is not in your favour.
- Collusion or cheating will not be tolerated under any circumstances.
- All teams should be trying to finish as high as possible in the standings with their available rosters, selecting their optimum line-up wherever and whenever possible.
- This is a year-round league with daily lineup changes, and owners are expected to be online most days - even in the offseason. As a common courtesy it is expected that personal messages from other owners be responded to in a timely manner (ideally no more than a few days) – even if it is to say “No thanks” or “Sorry, I’m not interested”.
That said, we understand that from time to time real life can get in the way of fantasy baseball. Since we know that the only reason you would be inactive for anything more than a couple of days would be if you were grievously wounded, please let us know in advance if you're going to be away or uncontactable otherwise we'll have no choice but to alert your local authorities. If the authorities are unable to locate or vouch for you, you may awake from your coma/abduction/incarceration to find that we've had no choice but to find a replacement owner for your team.
1.4 Divisions
The league will be divided into three divisions, each consisting of five teams. The divisons will be populated in accordance with the location of the place name of each team.
