- Each owner is required to submit game plans for his team's home
games for that month. Any home games for which an owner does not
submit a game plan are subject to be played by his opponent or
autoplayed by the commissioner.
- Each owner is required to play at
least his team's road games
and then send in the statistics files for those series before the end of
the current monthly interval.
- Additionally, owners may have to play all games (home and road)
against teams that have no active owners. Lineups are set by the
computer for vacant teams. Additionally, home games for
which an owner has submitted a game plan but the opponent has not played
it by the monthly deadline may be played by the owner.
- Any games NOT
played by the monthly deadline are autoplayed by the commissioner.
