RULEBOOK

Last updated March 25, 2026 · Commissioner Kyle

Accidental Disconnect

If your game gets disconnected, desync, or you paused it and left, please share the issue in real-time (or take an image). If you don't you will forfeit your 1st, 2nd and 3rd round picks for the following year.

Unintentional Disconnect can be taken care of in two ways

1) Restart Game Fresh 2) Start a new game and only play the remaining time with the previous score - Example: 3rd Quarter Broncos 31-Patriots 30. Played 2 quarters with the Broncos winning by 1 point.

Intentional Restarts

1) No restarts. Any restarts will result in an automatic loss and loss of a first-round pick 2) No unplugging from the game while playing.

Trades

1) Can't trade for players above 80 with the CPU - (Trading for a 80 or above will result in loss of 1st and 2nd round picks) 2) No trading for a team's first-round and second-round rookie. (Trading for a first or second will force you to lose your 1st and 2nd round picks the following year) 3) Can Trade for an 85 rated CPU player only if you are trading an SSX (not a SS, not a Star). If SSX is over 30, you have to include a first-round pick.

Draft

1) Only two picks in the first and second round - (If you have two or more picks, you will forfeit your pick for the following year in that round). 2) Can't have a top 20 pick if your team makes the playoffs. 3) Can't have two picks in the first round if your team makes the playoffs.

Streaming

1) Must be wired in for all human games 2) Home team streams 3) Streams must be set to archive on Twitch or Youtube for review for rule purposes 4) If you can't stream, please ask the other player to do so. 5) Do not cut off the stream if you are losing (doing so will result in decrease of player ratings)
