House Rules

General house rules for all contests offered by DataForce Fantasy Football.

1. DataForce offers only season-long and playoff contests, with all drafts taking place before the NFL season begins or just before the NFL playoffs begin. Entry fees range from $20 to $3000.
   
   
2. DataForce offers various contest types, methods of drafting your team, roster requirements, and scoring rules. The full rulebook is available here.
   
   
3. DataForce offers a choice of platforms for contest play: MyFantasyLeague.com and DataForce's own Team Manager software.
   
   
4. You may only have one team in each league (contest). If you share a league with a family member or household member, this relationship must be disclosed.
   
   
5. At DataForce, you will maintain an account that you deposit money into, and then use that money to buy into leagues. Deposits may be made by credit card, e-check, or personal check.
   
   
6. All league purchases become final at the point a league is filled (usually 12 members per league) and the draft positions randomly assigned. Once you have been assigned your draft spot, your purchase becomes non-refundable. See our Refund Policy for more details.
   
   
7. All prize winnings will be available within four days of the close of each contest. You can claim your prize winnings (providing a social security number for taxation if required) from your My Account page. Prize winnings are listed here. Withdrawals of winnings, or any other money on account, may be done by paper check or ACH (e-check).
   
   
8. If, during any NFL season, the NFL does not complete four weeks of games, season-long contests will be canceled. If the NFL does not complete all playoff games and determine a Superbowl winner, playoff contests will be canceled. In the event of cancelation, entry fees for single-season leagues will be refunded, and entry fees for multi-year leagues will be applied automatically to the following season. More information is available in the Terms of Service.
   
   
9. Fantasy "games" occur once each week, and include all played NFL games that week. Statistics and scoring are audited at the end of each game day, but are not finalized until the final audit, approximately one hour after the final game day for the week. At that point, weekly results are deemed final, and should the NFL provide any stats corrections after that point, those corrections will not be included in scoring.
   
   
10. Should you have any concerns, question, complaints, or disputes in the course of your contest, please Contact Us immediately by email to [email protected].
    
    
11. DataForce rigidly enforces Fairplay and Sportsmanship rules meant to make sure all of our contestants are enjoying the contest. When you join one of our leagues, you are agreeing to abide by these guidelines.
    
    
12. If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, help is available. You can also self-impose restrictions on deposits and contest entries.
