ZAN's 360 Online Franchise League (Rules, Regs, and Sign-Up)

Hey Guys,

I'm starting up a FANTASY DRAFT Franchise League. I will be awarding numerous awards at the end of the season for Superbowl Winners, OPOTY, DPOTY, and a couple other criterion. It's totally free to enter.

There is no set format for gameplay. If you're sim, you can play. If you're tourney, you can play. However, know one thing. You WILL lose games. No one will go 19-0-0 in this league. So undedicated players need not apply. I'm looking for 32 Madden Bible players who have the time to schedule and play 1 game every 3 days over the next month and a half...or further on (depending on how many seasons we play).

To sign up, please PM me with the following information:

Team Requested:

Please be aware that not everyone who signs up will get in. Priority will go to those that I feel are reliable, responsible, and have a good head on their shoulders to play in this sort of league.

I will update this thread with the teams that are taken. Remember, this is a fantasy draft franchise, so team selection isn't THAT important. Join up!

Rules and Regulations:

Clock Milking: We do not play a long enough game to milk clock. Therefore, milking will only be allowed in the last 2 minutes of each half. Since resetting of games is impossible, any player found milking will be exempt from awards at end of the season and/or be booted from the ZOFL. Try to snap (on average) the ball prior to play clock dipping under 20 seconds.

Lagging: Any player found intentionally lagging the connection will be booted

Quitting/Conceding: Quitting/Conceding is not permitted in ZOFL. All games must be completed to ensure proper stat logging for post season awards..
*While quitting/conceding is not allowed in the ZOFL, running up the score is also not allowed. Use common sense. I understand it's not your job to stop your own offense from scoring, but at the same time, realize that running up the score is prolonging the game for your opponent. Use common sense and finish the game in a timely manner. No game should be won by 50-60 points.

Manual Punt/FG Blocks: These are not allowed. Anyone found doing it intentionally will be booted from the league.

Onside Kicks: Onside kicks are not allowed until the 4th quarter. You must be losing to attempt an onside kick.
*SURPRISE ONSIDES ARE NOT ALLOWED IN THE ZOFL. WHILE THEY ARE RECOVERABLE, THEY ARE ENTIRELY TOO EFFECTIVE. SINCE NORMAL ONSIDES ARE NOT ALLOWED UNTIL THE FOURTH (WITH A LOSING SCORE) THERE IS NO 'SURPRISE' ELEMENT. LINE UP IN AN ONSIDE FORMATION AT ALL TIMES WHEN ONSIDE KICKING.

Offsides Glitching: Banned

No audibling out of Wildcat, FG, Punt, or QB Kneel formations.

QB Draws: QBs must take 2 steps back from the line of scrimmage before running up field. Any player found QB drawing illegally will be warned. Any player found continuously drawing will be booted.

Disputes: If you believe your opponent has done something wrong, please file a complaint immediately. Submit a PM to ZAN on the Madden Bible forums. Word of mouth is not an acceptable format. I must have a highlight with the infraction. You may use EASportsWorld or your YouTube account to submit dispute evidence.
*Filing a false complaint will put you at risk for removal from ZOFL.
