Offseason Prizes - DEFUNCT
**Prizes are no longer being used. This has been replaced by HAC Coins.**
This page is here simply for historical information.
These bonuses are awarded at the conclusion of each season. The same prize can not be used twice on a player. The rewards are subject to change at a moment's notice at the Commissioner's whim in accordance to the league economy or saturation of awards given out. Too many keepers or not enough is not a good thing. If either one happens and the values of players are out of whack, fewer (or more) prizes may need to be awarded. The Commissioner will do his best to award the prize structure before the postseason each year. Prizes may not be traded.

Detailed Prize list for team achievements:
These bonuses are awarded at the conclusion of each season. The same prize can not be used twice on a player until that player becomes a free agent.
LEVEL 1:
- Bonus contract: This contract can be used to freeze a player's value for up to four years. This cannot be used on a player drafted in the 1st or 2nd round.
- Time Machine: Reduce a player’s current value by 5 rounds. (Example: a player who was drafted in the 6th round and has 6th round value will now have 11th round value.) The player will still cost a draft pick two rounds higher to re-sign. This prize CANNOT be used on a 1st or 2nd round pick.
- Frozen In Time Contract: This will freeze a player's value for one season, but the player will not become a free agent at season's end like an Option Year Contract. The player's keeper status will continue as before. Cannot use this award on first or second round draft picks.
LEVEL 2:
- Hometown Discount: This contract is used to increase a player's keeper value by just ONE round instead of the normal two.
- Buyout: Release a player and get a draft pick 10 rounds lower than the player's value. It will be a sandwich draft pick at the end of the round.
- Bird Rights: If you've owned a player for at least three seasons, you can keep him for up to five more seasons with a one round increase.
- Mercenary Recruiter: This will give a team five extra transactions during the season. This can be decided on during the season.
- Window Shopper: This will give a team $10 extra FAAB dollars for their season budget.
LEVEL 3:
- Free Agent Coupon: This can be used to acquire a free agent and affix a 16th round value on him.
- Andrew Bynum Quitter: Bynum isn’t sure he has his heart into playing any longer. Well, if you have a change of heart in keeping a player after keepers have been declared, you can use this prize and reclaim the draft pick that you “paid” to keep a player.
- Hired Gun: This will give a team two extra transactions during the season. This can be decided on during the season.
- 5 Dollar Bill: This will give a team $5 extra FAAB dollars for their season budget.
