  Waivers Rule 6 (F) reads in part: If you have the Waiver Pick for a certain day, you must post by noon the following day.  If late you will be penalized 15 draft spots in the next year’s third round.  No exceptions are made and everyone gets fined.  The fine also occurs if your numbers or players are wrong and you must correct your Waiver.  A second violation results in 30 spots in the third round.  If games start the next day or night, instead of losing your pick, the fine is 30 spots in the third round, HOWEVER, all GM’s are afforded a three hour grace period to 3 pm before their fine doubles.  This eliminates the situations where there is a noon start time for an early weekend game, Once late 12 hours the pick is automatically burnt.
