DFFL4 AOM 2021

 

February 2, 2021

 

Attending Owners: Rob, Carl/Susan, David, Mike, Jeff, Collin, Loren, Brian, Jesse (9 total)

Non-Attending Owners: Steve, 1 vacant owner spot

 

Commissioner stated that since this was the 1st ever DFFL4 AOM, there were obviously no re-tabled issues from the 2020 AOM and opened the floor to new business:

 

1 – Mike proposed that we kill the 24/7 open WW in favor of a Weekly WW

Yes: Mike, Jeff, Rob, Collin, David, Susan, Brian

No:

Non-Voters: Steve, Loren, Jesse

Proposal is passed for immediate implementation (see below for implementation details)

 

2 – A further discussion ensued to determine if the weekly WW would be a blind bid waiver using a pre-set FAAB or some form of determination using standings to put forth an order of WW acquisitions. The final results were:

FAAB: Loren, Rob, Collin, David

Standings: Jeff, Mike

Abstain: Susan

Non-Voters: Steve, Brian, Jesse

FAAB ($100 for both off season and regular season, closed when trading freeze is implemented (at the start of week 12)) was passed for immediate implementation

(A further discussion ensued with Brian suggesting that if covid is still a thing in the 2021 season, that we leave the WW as a 24/7 open free for all. The Commissioner advised that a vote is not needed on this as this is exactly what we will be doing should covid still be an issue going forward)

 

3 – Loren proposes that we no longer be allowed to trade future draft picks.

Yes: Loren, Susan

No: Jeff, Rob, Collin, Mike, David, Brian

Non-Voters: Steve, Jesse

Proposal is voted down

 

The floor was closed for new business. The Commissioner had the following rule changes to bring up then continued on with his annual Commissioner’s Report:

 

1 – Seeing as how 1 owner did not pay his $20 to the Champ as promised, the Commissioner suggested discussing the possibility of having all owners prepay the $20 fee to either the Commissioner directly or to League Safe.

Yes: Jeff, Jesse, Loren, Mike, Rob, David, Susan, Brian, Collin

No:

Non-Voters: Steve

Proposal is passed with the stipulation that we try and set up League Safe first (the Commissioner thinks he still has an account there), and if that fails, then payment to Commissioner is fine, (the Commissioner will advise via email or message board on site, also payment must be made BEFORE the annual draft. Should the Commissioner hold the funds, he would be holding $240 for the season. The day after the final, the Commissioner will send $220 to the league Champion and will offer the League Runner up to have their $20 returned to them or leave it as their payment for the next season as the Runner Up gets their $20 (as per a discussion on the message board at the beginning of the 2020 season)

 

2 – Commissioner starts the conversation as to if we should stay with Sleeper or move elsewhere (Commissioner suggested Fleaflicker). A lengthy conversation ensued with the voting as follows:

Stay with Sleeper: Jesse, Loren, Susan

Move to Fleaflicker: Mike, Rob, Jeff, David, Brian, Collin

Non-Voter: Steve

Proposal to move to Fleaflicker is passed through for immediate implementation. The Commissioner will advise when the league has transitioned over to Fleaflicker

 

3 - Finances:

Advised that all owners except for 1 have paid the Champion (that owner was removed from the league)
