World Rules

Salary Cap - $100 MIL: Teams are not allowed to exceed $100 million in player payroll. The means for determining compliance will be the Payroll number that appears under Payroll Information upon clicking the team name link on the Standings page.

Cash In Trades: Cannot exceed the players' remaining salary

City Changes: Owners may change cities after being in their current location for 5 seasons, but may not change franchises. New owners may select the city of their choice

No Tanking: Minimum win thresholds (Effective Season 12) are 55 wins for one season (50 if it's your first season in the world) and 185 wins for 3 seasons. You can incur 2 strikes against the threshold and stay in the world if it is determined that a reasonable effort is being made to improve, and that other world rules have been followed. Owners found to be tanking will be ejected from the world immediately.

Maintaining Minors: Auto-pilot is fine, but you must have enough active players to avoid extreme fatigue so players are not run into the ground.
