General Rules
DMB allows you to customize many of the rules under which your
league will operate -- the number of games to be played, for
example, whether the DH is used, or if weather should influence
play.
But certain fundamental rules apply to all leagues. They are as
follows:
-
A league can have a maximum of four divisions of 16 teams
each.
-
A team can be in only one league at a time.
-
A player can be on only one team at a time. (The exception is
multi-team players, created by DMB for players who were traded
during the regular season.)
-
If inter-league or post-season play between two leagues is part
of your plan, the leagues must be grouped into what DMB calls an
"organization."
-
The rules of an organization govern play for all leagues within
it.
With these rules in mind, you're now ready to build and populate
your own league. You can check Common Scenarios to see if
one fits your plans. Or you can take a methodical approach and
start at the beginning: preparing the database that will contain
and track your league and its records.
