Operations Manual

| Trades | Trade approval and keeper-right treatment |
| Scheduling | Week 1 median policy and standard head-to-head schedule policy |
| Tiebreakers & Playoffs | Seeding, Alpha Bowl, Beta Bowl, and bracket authority |
| Conduct & Integrity | Tanking, collusion, Dead Rat Clause, and investigation process |
| Documentation Standards | Document control, taxonomy, naming, lifecycle, and writing standards |
Key Source Rule
ESPN is a platform source, but it is not always the final RFFL authority for standings, seeding, or bracket interpretation. When ESPN and the Operations Manual conflict on league-specific rules, use the Operations Manual and mark any unresolved conflict for Commissioner review.Source Path
