Gridiron Madden 11 League Rules

Rules are subject to change at any time.

1. GAME/SESSION SETTINGS

ROSTERS: The latest updated rosters are required for online play. These rosters must be used for all games in play-now leagues.

SESSION SETTINGS:
Game Mode: Unranked
Max DNF%: Any
Private Session: Yes
Playcall Style: Conventional
Fatigue: On
Injuries: On
Quarter Length: 7 mins
Game Skill: All Pro
Game Speed: Normal
Weather: On
Opponent Skill level: Any
Note: Once these settings are set by the home team they should stay that way, but please double check.

TEAMS: The Player playing as the home team will select their team first. The away team will then select a team that is within 3-4 point rating scale to level the playing field. If the away team wishes to select a team with a slightly higher rating please send a message to the home team to be courteous. If both teams agree proceed to game.
Note: Some players may love the same team; if you would like to go head to head with your teams go for it.
PLAYBOOKS: Players may choose any offensive and defensive playbook. Use of created plays and playbooks are strictly prohibited in league play.

UNIFORMS: The Player playing as the home team must choose their uniform combination first, and have their team wear a uniform combination that is darker or contrasting in color scheme in comparison to the away team’s uniform combination. The player playing as the away team must choose their uniform combination after the player playing as the home team, and have their team wear a uniform combination that is lighter or contrasting in color scheme in comparison to the home team’s uniform combination.

2. GAME PLAY

QUITTING GAMES IS NOT PERMITTED. ALL GAMES ARE TO BE PLAYED TO COMPLETION unless conceding. In order to concede, you MUST pause the game and message your opponent that you will be conceding. The opponent will respond OK and both of you can record your score. After recording the score both opponents inform each other that they are all set and proceed with concession. If the losing opponent wishes to concede the winning team must accept. Not allowing a concession and trying to rack up the score is grounds for removal from the league. Keep in mind you can only concede in the 2nd half.
Note: You must be down by 21 or more in the 3rd and 17 or more in the 4th to concede. Forfeiting, "tanking" or any other form of "fixing" the outcome of a game is strictly prohibited. Any quits or D/C will affect standings as well.

ANY GLITCHES that are identified and being used by either team will be banned from the Gridiron Madden 11 League with no refund.

Players may not audible out of the QB Kneel, Wildcat, Field Goal, or Punt offensive formations.

3. ADDITIONAL RULES FOR FAIR-PLAY

4th DOWN RULE: If the score is tied or you’re leading by 3 or more points, you must punt or kick a field goal with 4th and 3 yards and more to go. (So if you are 2 yards or less you can go for it anytime) This rule doesn’t apply with two or less minutes remaining in the 2nd and 4th quarters, or in any Red Zone (20 or less yards) situation.

2 POINT CONVERSION RULE: You can only use two point conversions to tie a game or normalize a point spread that was thrown off by a safety or you need to be within a field goal. This rule doesn’t apply when you’re down by 1 and attempting to win a game with two or less minutes remaining in the 4th quarter.

Onside Kicks are only allowed if the losing opponent is down in the 4th quarter.
4. VIOLATIONS
Any violations of the rule during league play will need to be captured/reported and sent to me. Each infraction will be recorded and factored in to your standings.

5. DISCONNECTIONS

if there's a disconnection during a league game within the first half you and your opponent will try to reconnect and begin a new game. If you are being blown out by the 4th Quarter DO NOT DISCONNECT, pause the game, message your opponent that you will concede, record the score, and then continue with concession.

All disconnects must be completed within 24 hours from point of disconnect. It would be best to complete game immediately.

6. REPORTING SCORES

once the game is complete the winning team will report the scores to jrufino513@gmail.com Losing team please keep track of your score as well.

7. STANDINGS
Standings will be based on Win/Loss record; tie breaker will be determined by point system.

8. DISPUTES
if you believe your opponent has done something wrong please file a complaint and email jrufino513@gmail.com
