I've looked around the website, the manual, and the forums for a rundown of how online leagues work, but haven't found anything. It seems to me that there are special challenges in running an online league. I understand one guy ("commissioner"?) does the simming and carries out every GM's orders (seems like a big job, BTW), but it seems there would arise difficulties in that special situations might happen during a sim. Say you sim a week of schedule every day. What happens if there are injuries during that period? Or if players need to come off the DL? And if you sim just one day at a time to let people handle these situations (and emails, etc), that would take forever.
