League Play

The Super League is made of many standard fantasy football leagues run by Sleeper.

League Assignment

Everyone in the league is divided into 12 person in a way that mixes experience level. At sign up, players are given a league code to send to friends/coworkers. That league code prioritizes league placement with that group of people.

Rosters

Each team will have a roster of 13 players. Each week every can start the following positions, and only points scored by starts count toward that team's points in both head to head matchups in conference and toward season long totals and super league playoffs.

Each invividual league of the Super League has it's own universe of players that are drafted, traded, dropped, and added. All players will be rostered by several teams across the Super League Multiverse (all the individual leagues).

Waivers

We're using a FAAB (Free Agent Aquisition Budget) system, where everyone gets $100 to bid on free agents on waivers (all free agents are on waivers one day after being dropped and when they start games for that week). Waivers for players that have played a game that week are processed Tuesday nights.

Drafting

All leagues will have a live online traditional snake draft . The draft will be on Sleeper in the league a person is assigned. If a person is unable to attend live, the system will auto-pick for that person based on the person’s queue and/or default rankings.

Playoffs

Each league has a typical 6-team playoff. The top 6 teams, according to record (wins), in each league advance to the playoffs. Each team will compete in a head-to-head matchup, with the winner advancing to the next round. The bracket is seeded based on record. The top 2 teams receive a bye for round 1. The winner of each league’s playoffs will receive a prize.

Super League Play

In addition to each league’s playoffs, there will be a giant single-elimination tournament of everyone in the Super League across all leagues.

The Tournament

Each round of the bracket is a head-to-head matchup between two players. The winner of the matchup advances to the next round until we have a champion. The champion, finalist, and semi-finalists all receive a prize.

When

The bracket starts in week 6 and ends week 17. The early rounds will be 2 week matchups with the later rounds being 1 week matchups (2 week matchups help to mitigate NFL Team byes which take place week 6 to 14).

Seeding

The bracket will be seeded by total points scored in weeks 1-5. The highest seeds will receive a bye for round 1.

Prizes

The prize money, total collected league dues, will be split among super league participants as follows:

League Finalists $50
League Champions $200
Super League Quarter-finalists 2.5% of the prize money
$150 if 120 people
Super League Semi-finalists 6% of the prize money
$360 if 120 people
Super League Finalists 11% of the prize money
$660 if 120 people
Super League Champion 25% of prize money
$1,500 if 120 people

Governance

The league is governed by a Commissioner Board made of volunteers. You can volunteer to be on the board during the sign up process.

Collusion

Collusion between teams (specifically, knowingly decreasing the quality of your team to increase the quality of another’s) may result in locking of a team and disqualification for prize consideration. Guilty until proven innocent. All reports to be reviewed by the Super League Commissioner Board.

Trade/Drop Reviews

Reviewing and reversing trades and drops exists for the purposes of protecting the leagues competitive integrity which can be threatened by collusion or simply incompitent team management.

All trades are reviewed by Super League Commissioner Board within 1 day.
All drops are reversible by Super League Commissioner Board

Commissioner Board

A rule of 2 of 3 for any decision. The board will be announced prior to draft.
