*** Second issue needing a league vote (action required) ***

[Chargers]

There will be two issues that require a league vote. This is the second one.


Issue #2: In the event that the NFL season is shortened, the tiebreakers that will be used to determine playoff seeding, possible playoff results, and possible 2021 draft order (see the “What happens” post/email for more details) will be…

Option C: All-play record, then total points, then power ranking.
Option D: Total points, then all-play record, then power ranking.

In the event of a tie, the commissioners will serve as the tiebreaker to determine the winning choice.

Do we not need a super-majority in this league?

[Chargers]

Technically we're not voting for a rule change. We're choosing between two options in a situation which has never occurred before and where some sort of solution is needed. So a simple majority of the votes received will suffice.

But if even that weren't the case, it still would have had enough votes to pass. See the excerpt from the league rules below.


ANNUAL RULES REVIEW AND CHANGES:
The annual rules review period will take place during the month of February. Change proposals will be accepted from February 1 through February 28th, with the following rules:

1. Each team may propose only one rule change per season.

2. Each proposed change will be reviewed by the commissioners. If 3 out of the 4 commissioners accept the proposal, then it will be put up for a league vote.

3. A majority must vote in favor of a change in order for it to pass. A majority will be in respect to the total votes received, and must be a minimum of ten (10) "favor" votes regardless of the total number of votes received. The voting process for accepted proposals will take place from March 1st to March 15th.
