| Quote: |
I'm pretty sure everyone here already knows how free agency works, but here's just a brief outline of the rules.
- You can find all available free agents under Free Agents on the League Site
http://ibsl.50webs.com/
-All offers must be PM'ed.
There are 3 different kind of offers:
1.) LLE its worth 1.2 million and you sign a player for 1 year
2.) MLE its worth 4.5 million and you also sign a player for 1 year
If You Have Cap Space You Cannot Offer The MLE or LLE
3.) Standard Offers
GMs that do have some cap space can sign a player by this format:
Player name:
Amount Of Years:
Total amount of money:
Year 1 -
Year 2 -
Year 3 -
Year 4 -
Year 5 -
Year 6 -
Year 7 -
The max increase for years is 10% and a player cannot decrease in salary, for example, a player cannot be offered a contract of 12.5mil in year 1, and then 9.5mil in year 2
*Free agents will then decide which offer is best for them and sign with a team, keep in mind that players Loyalty, Greed and Play For A Winner levels come into play during free agency. |

I believe the 12.5% increase only applies when re-signing your own FA's who have 3 or more bird years... _________________

Your right, thanks for the heads up. A player signing with a new team can only have a 10% increase. _________________

No, and No.
Doesn't allow it. Also MLE & LLE players cannot be traded at any point during the season. _________________

| If I want to offer them a MAX contract, I can just post ''MAX'' right? Do it all the time in other leagues but didn't see it mentioned in the format thread. Just wanted to make sure. |

Yeah, you can just say MAX and however many years you want.
FA is done through PM though to keep bids private _________________

ok nice thx - when does FA start?
by the way how long can i offer a minimum contract?
for example:
"I offer Player XY a minimum contract over 3 years with the max raise"
is that possible? or if iam over the cap only sign players for 1 year (1x MLE 1XLLE and as much as i want for the minimum)? |

FA starts right after the draft ends
everything you said about contracts is true also
A player may actually be more likely to sign a long contract worth more total than a short one with a higher yearly salary |

If your over the cap you have a max and a minimum offer, usually with the min, it will say the player won't sign for more then 2 seasons though. Min is somewhere around 200K, max is somewhere around 1M if your over the cap. _________________
