Obscure New Rule should be Remembered this Week

Under Waiver Rules:

Is there anything different in Waiver Claims than Last Year or every other league or am I wasting my time reading this? - No you’re not. Here is the biggest difference in waiver claiming and free agent signing from previous years to this years’. As a rule, after the end of the regular season, only teams alive in the playoffs are allowed to make Waivers and Free Agent acquisitions and put them on their permanent rosters. While this rule will stay in effect ANY WAIVER CLAIM OR FREE AGENT ACQUISITION OR RELEASE WILL BE REVERSED AT THE END OF THE FANTASY FOOTBALL SEASON.

What this means is this week is the last week to make waiver claims for this offseason. Non-playoff teams rosters will be frozen after the Week 13 games and Playoff teams will have any waiver pickups and drops reversed after the team is eliminated from the playoffs. So if you see a "diamond in the rough" on the waiver wire, this week is your last chance to get him.
