OASL Rules

Player values and Auctions

Player Value . Assume all players have PU of 0. As season progresses, values of older players may reduce especially leading up to mid-season aging skill level loss.

There will be 6 auctions per season now with a mix of players and/or resources.

Auction player Skill Levels for S25 onwards, but can vary on occasions

• Age 2: SL range 21 > 29
• Age 3: SL range 22 > 26
• Age 4: SL range 22 > 26
• Age 5: SL range 22 > 26
• Age 6: SL range 22 > 26

50 CP and 50 TP is the maximum that can be held by any one team at any time. This includes pre-season team orders, so all teams should aim to finish season with less than 20TP because their 30TP free allocation will otherwise be reduced. A manager will be given 24 hours to trade away excess resources, and then any over 50 will be deleted.

Healthy budgeting

Try plan a budget from gate receipts and top up with participation bonuses from blog and journals. All teams should try to have 1500k in bank at end of each season to buy 30 CP for following season.

To clarify a common question: un-used CP or TP will carry over to new season as normal.

Website

Almost all functions of the game have been automated on the website. This was implemented around season 16 onwards and OASL is indebted to Olmec creator Allan Sellers and Olmecfm guru Graham McDermott.

Orders are submitted online, trades are completed online, and interaction with other managers is possible on the blog, journal and match comments. It is possible to communicate with other managers by email or better still via team INBOX option. This is commonly done for trade discussions, as well as banter.

Informal voting polls are often put on the website, as well as end of season Manager of the Season voting.

OASL Forum

Currently unavailable

Under-performing

If a manager is seriously under-achieving with a team that should be going for glory, then that teams CHAIRMAN (Commissioner) may give him a warning and expect things to improve. This is normally done on the forum as a bit of fun (initially) to gee up a de-motivated manager.

Robin Hood

Div 2 bottom team will also benefit from any excess cash via ROBIN HOOD rule:-

Healthy budgeting is one thing, but no team may have more than 5,000K in their team bank at any time. If a team goes above this limit, then the excess money is given manually by the Commish to the bottom team in Division 3. This is known as the Robin Hood rule where the rich give to the poor! Managers whose team bank approaches 5,000k+ can of course buy players or trade money away for other resources to try and remain within the limit.

Negative bank balance should be resolved by a manager with Blog and Journals and trading away resources within a week of the debt.

Captain Change rule reminder: 24 hours notice is needed for a change of club captain. 1 captain change allowed during each season at a set cost of 100k.
