RESULTS
-------
All results and boxscores are now in except week 27 CAN at SFP.
Stats are final for all other teams.  


PLAYOFF SCHEDULE
----------------
Playoffs are underway and results are being tracked here:

DRAFT ORDER
-----------
We will be scheduling the draft order lottery soon.  If anyone wants
to volunteer to schedule and run the lottery on IRC, let me know.

The rules, as always:
Each team is assigned to a tier determined by number of playoff appearances
over the last three seasons.  The roll will determine the order the teams
pick within each tier in the 1st round and all other odd numbered rounds.  
The order is reversed within each tier for even numbered rounds of the draft.

In every round, Tier 0 teams pick first, followed by Tier 1, then Tier 2,
then Tier 3.

Tier 0:  TRI, BAL, HAV, SFP, EDG
Tier 1:  KAT, NJR, BOW, WMS, MCM, PAD, POR, SDQ, SKY, NYK, GTY
Tier 2:  MAD, MNM, CSG, CAN, SEA
Tier 3:  COU, PHI, ODM


USAGE APPEALS
-------------
You are allowed to keep any player on your roster who finished the IBL season
between 75% and 133% usage, inclusive.  Any player outside that range will be
automatically released, unless you send a usage appeal with your argument for
why the usage requirement should be waived.  Send appeals to phi at ibl.org by
November 30.

The usage page for your team in the Almanac (e.g.,
http://almanac.ibl.org/Usage/PHI.html) will be considered official as it uses
the official stats.  You do not need to appeal any players unless the page shows
them with a positive number in the "w/Inj 75%" column, or shows them with a
negative number in the "133%" column.


RELEASES
--------
Please send in a list of players you wish to release.  Include in your list any 
players you are forced to release because of usage.  All releases must be 
received by November 30.  Shortly after the release deadline, we will create 
and send out a list of all carded players and a list of players available for
the draft.


FREE AGENT DRAFT
----------------
By December 1st we should have a draft order and all releases should be in.
At that point I plan to send a spreadsheet with stats for all players
eligible for the draft, assuming the Retrosheet play-by-play data is available 
by then.  Teams are then allowed to make a pick when it is their turn.


TRADES
------
Trades may be made starting on December 1.
