Badlands Auction / Contract Dynasty League Rules Highlights

-- Uses same Scoring, Line-up, Divisional Structure, Playoff, and maximum roster limits as the Badlands Dynasty Leagues.

-- No minimum roster size provided an owner can field a valid line-up each week.

-- Incorporates Salaries and Contracts using “Whizbucks” ($).  Salaries based on $1 increments with no maximum other than what someone is willing to pay.

-- No drafting!  ALL player salaries are decided in free-market auctions, including the rookies each year.

-- No salary cap – you can spend as much money as you have in your account.  This simplifies accounting and eliminates “dead money” that you cannot spend.

-- Each league begins with $5,000 and receives an additional $5,000 each year.

-- Loss – Compensation Income:  A single Off-Season payment of an extra $250 - $1,000 for the teams that finish out of the playoffs each year.

-- Contract Lengths determined by the winner of the auction: 1 – 3 years at the price of the winning bid; 4 years at 125% of the winning bid; or 5 years at 150% of the winning bid.

-- Contracts of less than five years can be extended one-time only, for additional cost, depending on original contract length and how long the extension.  The original contract + extension may not exceed five years.

-- Automatic Performance-Based salary increases for top 6 players at each position of from $10 to $150 per year depending on position and rank.

-- Restricted Free Agency period, where the original team of ownership has to pay an additional 10% of the winning bid to retain a player.  Winning a bid but losing the player can now be a profit-making activity, adding a new element of strategy.

-- Penalties for early release of players, depending on salary and the time remaining on the contract.

-- In-Season Free Agency with shortened auction timers.

-- Trading allowed of players and/or cash.  Contracts and salary obligations remain fixed and transfer with the player.

-- Owner Bankruptcy is grounds for potential removal from the league.
