Quick answer
Everyone can see the league site and play their part; only the commissioner can rule on the league or change how it’s run.
FranchiseHuddle splits cleanly into what everyone in the league sees and what only the commissioner controls.
What members can see and do
- The whole league site — standings, schedules, rosters, box scores, power rankings, trades and history.
- Their own team — claim it, set availability, lock kickoffs.
- League participation — propose and vote on trades, play the pick’em, vote in superlatives.
- Discord — every slash command, and all the auto-posted content.
What’s commissioner-only
- The EA connection and sync setup.
- Scheduling windows — setting the advance timer and scheduling window.
- The integrity watchdog — reviewing and finalizing flags.
- Result overrides — forcing results and recording forfeits.
- Discipline — issuing suspensions and warnings.
- Tournaments and superlatives — creating and running them (members take part).
- Billing — plan changes, promo codes and cancellation.
The simple rule: everyone can see the league and play their part; only the commissioner can rule on it or change how it’s run.
Transparency by design
Even the commissioner-only actions are announced. When a flag is finalized, a result is forced, or a suspension is issued, a league alert posts to Discord with the reason — so rulings happen in the open, and members can see not just what was decided but why.
