Welcome to Season II everybody! Season I ended up a bit one-sided and the Knights of Utopia showed the competition what could be done when a team gels and works together well. But this season it all changes with the salary restrictions meaning we'll see new teams form.
What's new in Season II?
The draft system (which will be explained below) is the biggest change to Season II, after the less than successful "trade period" last season we've mixed things up a bit. In the coming days the captains will come together and hold a one-night draft to organise their teams. Salary caps have also been increased to $1.2 million for Season II.
Salary for all players will be as they finished in Season I with the exception of the following players:
xXFuriousWolfXx
NuclearMajor69
In order for these players to find homes at any teams during our trial drafts over the last week we've had to cap their salary to $650,000 AND increase team salary caps to $1.2 million (so stop playing so damn well!) in order for them to be picked up and still allow other teams to fill their rosters without going over the cap. Had we not made these changes the above players would not have found a team able to fit them into their roster (unless they wanted to play as a team of two).
Season II Franchises:
At this point in time we're going into Season II assuming that all captains will keep the Season I franchises active, those being:

Reschedule information:
Should a team need to reschedule a game due to two or more players being unavailable (including the substitute), it will be up to the captains of both teams to organise a night to reschedule the match provided it is rescheduled before the next round is due to take place. If a reschedule is not able to organised by this point the team that was unable to field their team at the initial game will be given a forfeit.

The Draft:
The draft system will operate on a rotation selection starting from the last placed team from Season I. Selections will proceed with first picks up the ladder to the Knights, and will then return to bottom of the ladder for the second round of picks. On the draft night (currently aiming for Tuesday Oct 25th) captains will assemble into a party and will be provided a link to a live spreadsheet of the draft. This spreadsheet will have salaries of all players and will perform calculations for you on the fly so you know how much salary you have to work with as the draft progresses.
Once the teams are selected we can schedule everything and get Season II underway!
