WORLD RULES

World Rules:

New Rules: (starting in season 10)

World Committee: tmfran / rcoffey45 / wildpike / johnmut

(1) Anti-Tanking Rules: Win Floor 55/125/190

(2) Prospect Budget: 30M Max (If the excess $$ is spent, violation of this rule will result in immediate removal from the world. . If violation can be corrected by $$ transfer the violating owner must immediately make the correction and will not be booted) **adjusted wording on 03/17/14**

(3) New players can change ballparks after completing one season in previous city.

(4) Current owners can switch ballparks once every five seasons. (All owners in season 10 can choose a new park immediately)

(5) A world committee will be set up by the world. It will be made up of 4 owners, 2 from the AL and 2 from the NL. The committee will vote on rules violations as well as admission to the world if / when vacancies occur. In case of a voting tie, then the commish will cast the tie breaking vote. .

(6) If a owner violates the anti-tanking rules, they may appeal being kicked out of the world. They can make their case to the world committee and state why they should be allowed to stay. The committee will then vote the fate of that owner. Each owner only gets one appeal, after that a violation results in expulsion from the world. If the owner is allowed back he/she will have one probationary season in which they're not allowed to compete in the IFA market.

(7) If a committee member quits or gets kicked out, then the commish will appoint a replacement committee member. If the commish quits or gets kicked out, then the committee will appoint a new commish.

(8) All owners are expected to keep their minors stocked, to avoid fatigue problems.

Kansas City Rolling Thunder / rquin9 Owner Interview

Kansas City Rolling Thunder

WIS Name: rquin9
First Name: Russ

What do you do when you’re not playing HBD or working?:
travel, read a lot of history, hike when I can, hang out in beer gardens

Favorite Teams (MLB/NFL/NBA/NHL… Soccer I guess):
AL: Detroit Tigers; NL: Washington Nationals

Choose 4 people you’d like to hang out with for a night (why?):
My brother because our careers have pulled us to different parts of the world over the last 25 years. I've probably seen him no more than 30 or 40 days during that time. I don't need anyone else.

There was this one night when I lived in Bangkok. I don't remember much of it, but I'm pretty sure I did some really dumb things.

1st world championship 6 seasons after taking over the worst team in a world

If you could change one thing about Mike Trout (the world), what would it be?:
too new to the league to make a good choice

update some ballparks and uniforms

CF Calvin Curtis--he was a Rule 5 pick in season 10 and won the gold glove
