100M: Immaculate Grid
Your roster will come from your own selected Immaculate Grid. Select 6 different franchises, putting three vertically and three horizontally to create your 3x3 grid. Pick one player for each of the 9 boxes in your grid and use two versions of him: one from each team. Then select 7 teammates from any of the 18 versions of your clones (same year and franchise). You can use no more than one teammate from any clone, so you will have two clones without a teammate used. (Baseball-Reference will be used to determine franchise definitions, so be careful with teams like Baltimore Orioles, Milwaukee Brewers, etc.: https://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/)

Q: I assume you have to select 9 players where each player at least played for the 2 intersecting franchises (so players who *only* played for a singular team their entire career can't be one of the 9 players being cloned but could be a teammate).
A: All correct

Q: Is it allowed to clone the same player multiple times or is it nine different players.
A: It's 9 different players

120M: 12 Boxes Revisited
To build your roster, choose one player from each of the 12 boxes and one player from each of the 12 rows (i.e., you must draft one player each from the rows OF1, OF2 & OF3, not two players from OF1). Then use one teammate from each of your 12 players from the season you select for them. Your 25th player will be a second teammate from one of your players. (None of your teammates may be a player that appears in any of the boxes).

You must use different players from every box than you used in Round 1. This restriction will not apply to teammates (i.e., you may use teammates from your Round 1 team so long as they are teammates of different players this time).

160M: Noah's Ark
You must roster 12 sets of 2 players where those two players have the same number of millions in his salary. And each of your 12 sets of players must use a different millions number (0 thru 11). In other words, you will have two players with zero millions (i.e., 200,000 to 999,999), you will have two players with one million (i.e., 1,000,000 to 1,999,999), you will have two players with 11 million in salary (i.e., 11,000,000 to 11,999,999), etc. Your 25th player must be $12 million or greater.

255M: Draft - 25 years, 25 franchises
This will be a 26-round snake draft, using the Round 1 standings as the draft order (#1 drafts 1st, etc.). Your roster must include one player each from 25 different modern franchises, and your final roster must have one player each from 25 consecutive seasons (Note that your last year must be 1977 or later to meet the franchise requirement, so your earliest possible season could be 1953). You do not have to declare the season or franchise of your player when you draft him. You will also draft your stadium at any time, which will be exclusive and won’t be restricted.
Note: Each owner must ensure they are building a legal roster. If you are unable to create a legal roster with the players you draft, you will be permitted replacements at a price of 10 points in the final standings each.

[Edit: In order to speed up the draft towards the end, rounds 16-19 will have 2 picks per owner at each time slot, and in round 20 they will make their final 3 picks. This will cut 6 days off the draft.]

Seasons: 1953-2023
DH: Yes
Clones: No
Ballpark: Draft your exclusive park
Alignment: Based on total salary (highest in NL East to lowest in AL West)

Q: I'm assuming when a player is drafted they are exclusive and can't be drafted by any other owner at that point?
A: Correct. All players are exclusive.

Q: Will the 255m have the same draft order throughout? Or is this one of those where your total salary determines the order?
A: Same order

Question for the 255M: I'm assuming when a player is drafted they are exclusive and can't be drafted by any other owner at that point?
