Terms &
Conditions
The rules on this page apply to the
Soccer All Stars Management League (SAS), IRC Channel (#sas) and
anything else associated with this site excluding some affiliates.
You must read these terms and conditions before you will be accepted
to our league. Failure to read the rules will result in your
immediate termination.
Role-plays
(RPs) are determined
by quality, not quantity. While the Executive Board can and will put
length and amount into factor when deciding a winner, the judgment
will be based on who the Executive Board has felt did a better job
of RPing over a certain course of time. The match results will then
be sent out to writers and other such additions placed into the
finalised match product. Any complaints about results can be sent to
the Executive Board. If a complaint about a particular result is
received, a rematch could be rescheduled, although this is unlikely.
Continuous complaints about results will result in termination or
penalties.
RPs must not contain any anti-semetic,
racial, sexual or other such unnecessary comment. Any comment that
personally insults a person's race, colour, or religion will be
deemed null and void. If RPs frequently contain this problem,
termination or penalties will result. Likewise, searching a rivals
RP to find errors such as these too frequently will also result in
penalty and/or termination.
RPs must be sent out to the
leagues e-mail list (coined "role-play list"). Updated role-play
lists shall be sent out as deemed necessary by the Board.
Failure to send to the entire role-play list will result in voiding
of the RP. This means that every time you RP, you MUST send that RP
to everybody on the SAS RP List.
You are limited to the use of
your manager and him alone. Creation of "temporary"
characters (such as your managers wife, a friend, etc.) is allowed.
Use of commentators/reporters in RPs is also acceptable. Use of
another's characters, a real person/manager, or another league other
than the league belonging to the SAS will result in a penalty as
well as voiding of the RP.
Spam mail is not acceptable.
Informing the role-play list of your league, site, or anything else
of that nature will result in your immediate termination or severe
penalties. The RP list is for RP's ONLY!
You are not allowed to inform AOL's Terms of Service (TOS),
Hotmail's TOS, or any other mail client of any role-plays concerning
a violation of their rules. If you inform AOL that someone from our
league is spamming (when all they are really doing is RPing), you
will be terminated immediately.
No RP lengtheners are allowed.
An RP lengthener is defined as anything meant to make your RP look
longer, such as a copyright statement, triple spacing, or anything
else deemed such by the Executive Board. Failure to comply will
result in voiding of role-play or penalties.
Curses are banned from subject
headers. Do not make mention of them at all. Curses, however, are
allowed in your role-plays. We encourage that you censor the e-mail
(**** out the words), but will not punish those who do not. However,
all RPs are deemed to be either live on television, radio or in the
national press. So using curses will will result in penalties for
your manager or club, unless you can find methods of disguising foul
and crude language.
E-mail switching is forbidden.
A definition of e-mail switching would be changing your e-mail
address once a week. Stick with one e-mail address, if you must
change it then give us ample warning time. If you frequently change
your e-mail address, we will simply not add you to our RP list
anymore.
Asking the Executive Board
for an opinion on something is prohibited. The Executive Board is
required to give out no opinions on anything at any time. Asking,
for example, if your RP was good or not, will result in a punishment
of some sort, or what action the Executive Board will be taking
against another employee of the league. If you continue to ask for
our opinions after you've been told not to, penalties will be handed
out.
You must send an application
in for review in order to be considered for acceptance. Not everyone
is accepted, so do not get your hopes up. Fill out the application
as best you can, making sure to include a sample role-play, even if
you have never done one before.
No unoriginal manager or
celebrity names are permitted in the SAS League. Unoriginal names
are defined as any celebrity or manager that is somewhat of a
household name. You must create your own original character in order
to be reviewed. This also applies to all staff and other associates
that your club has. The only celebrity names permitted are those
that are professional footballers or players who've retired and
joined the backroom staff.
If any amount of biased deals are detected then the clubs involved
will be put under investigation. The definition of biased deals is
selling players to clubs on the cheap, to clubs that you are
friendly on the cheap or to destroy your current club due to you not
liking them. This will result in heavy penalties or termination.
The jobs in the league are divided into two different categories.
Category A and Category B. Category A board members are the hardcore
members who have a major say in the running of the league. These
members are not allowed to manage within the league or vice versa.
However, managers are allowed to take up Category B positions on the
site which may include jobs such as a Columnist or a Representative.
Managers are only allowed one team per person and anyone caught
abusing that rule will be terminated from the league and given a
'life-ban' from managing at SAS.
The
Executive Board reserve the right to terminate your position in SAS
at any given time, with or without reason. We call all the shots
here at Soccer All Stars.
Throughout
seasons, the Executive Board will come across managers who will
continue to be a pain. Either purposely or by no fault of their own.
We will kill them off in the next main news story. Pick of the bunch
are fatal car crashes, shot down by gunman and drowned sleeping in
the bath.
Matches are played every Saturday. Tactics have to be submitted to
their deadlines! Your Match Squad and Team Instructions must be
submitted a day before the game at 6:30pm! If you fail to
meet these deadlines on a regular basis you will be punished via
fining or even termination provided your club feel your under
achieving. Missing a deadline will almost certainly result in your
side losing that particular match.
RPs are supposed to be well thought out descriptive pieces of
writing. If you can't manage a single paragraph in your RP then it's
not worth applying or RPing at all. We want quality and will punish
those who fail to produce via terms of results. If you want to be
the best, you have to work for it!
Occasionally
there will be a Random Sector Day
[Read More].
You must accept these days as part of the league. They can benefit
you and your team or sometimes not!
ICQ is a very important tool to have. With it you can communicate
with other SAS managers. ICQ can be used for negotiations and
haggling over the prices of players when buying or selling. This is
extremely important as we do NOT really want to see haggling on the
RP board. The RP board is for long quality RPs and not negotiating
prices for players. However once a player has been signed or sold
then it's a good idea to do a RP about it!
When signing a player both teams must submit the transfer details
using the form provided at the Information
Desk [Go
There]. If both teams fail
to submit the details then the transfer will be delayed causing the
player to be ineligible to play for his new club. The forms also
have to be identical, with details matching equally from the two
clubs involved.
Our final rule is to have fun!!! Don't take things personally or too
seriously! If your sacked live with it! We like sacked managers to
come back and participate in the league again, it makes good news
and a good league! So if your thrown out for doing something bad,
don't worry it's all part and parcel of the fun. The rules are not
that complex although there are many missing from this page due to
common sense. Rules will be added or taken away as necessary.
