All teams are to have one primary owner. 

Dragons, Giants, Angels, Demons and the Balanx will not be allowed to enter this league as owners or players. (Dragons alter forms are allowed, but they may NOT revert to dragon form in the arena)

If an owner chooses to play in the league, he or she can only be on their own team.

The sale of any team must first be approved by the majority of the board of owners  and then by the league's commissioner.

No one may become an owner if under current contract by another team.

In the event of an owners death, the team may be willed to another person who is not currently on another team or the team will be placed up for public auction.  If the death is in the middle of a season, the team will be appointed an acting owner by the commissioner.

Game payouts will be 25 eggs per loss and 50 eggs per win.  Money to pay the teams players will be taken from this total. Teams that qualify for the post season will get a 200 egg bonus.  Championship Teams will collect a reward of 1000 eggs.

Owners will receive 15 eggs per win at the end of the regular season.

All teams will play a complete 20 game schedule, playing all other teams  a total of 4 times.

Manatonics and Vampires may enter the ACFL at their own risk but may NOT use their powers outside of the field of play to assist their teams.

Players will enter the league via a draft. The first year draft order will be determined at random. After the first season, the teams with the lowest records will gain the first draft picks with the past seasons champion getting the last pick of each round.  Any new teams will be added to the beginning of the draft order.  Each player kept from the previous season counts as a round's pick.

Any player entering a draft may NOT change their race nor class for that season unless approved by an unanimous owner's vote.

Any draft pick will be forfeited till the end of the draft after 24 hours of not choosing. The following rounds time limits will continue to be cut in half for time until a successful pick is made. If a forfeited pick is missed in the last round, the league has the right to find new ownership.

Rosters are set and all trades must be made through the league office.  The board of owners can veto any trade with a majority vote. The Commissioner also reserves the right to veto a trade.

The trade deadline will end after the 30th game.

You may not pick up undrafted players after the 30th game, UNLESS approved by unanimous vote.

(Starting Season 9) Combatants are on their drafted team until released or traded. Released combatants will be forced to miss the rest of the season and the following season UNLESS ownerships cuts them for lack of desired skill. Those who are cut for any other issues such as not showing up or suspicious behavior will be forced to miss the next season and may only re-enter the league via the public draft. A player may elect to leave their team and reenter the draft with the same character OR an alt after serving on the same team for 2 consecutive seasons. They may still be drafted back on their previous team.

 All competitors WILL be compensated by the teams ownership through the league office to the amount of 3 egg per loss and 5 eggs per win, per team member who PLAY.  Members who  show up and do not play get 3 eggs no matter who wins.

 All teams will be compensated by the league office on a match by match basis. Winning teams will make the majority of money.

 The top 3 teams will compete in the playoffs with the 2nd and 3rd team playing each other to see who gets to play the #1 seed in the championship game.

 Ties in standings are broken in the following order:  Head to head record, head to head combined scores, point difference for season.  3-way or more ties where 1 team does not have the head to head advantage are broken by point difference alone.

 All teams will have rosters up to 8 combatants but may only field 4 members of separate classes for any given match.
