Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

Bones, please stop going to the "you're new" excuse. All the members of your league should know the rules whether they are new or old. You are getting mad at me because my opinion is that I think we should stick to whatever the official rules say? Once again, am I not entitled to have that opinion? That doesn't mean I don't recognize that you have done it differently in the past or that it is a personal attack on you, it's just simply my input. If this is how it is always been done then there should be something in the league notes saying that you have the ultimate power to change rules at your discretion.
Excuse? You're the one who's doing the most. I don't need an excuse. You're entitled to your opinion but quit trying to shove it down my throat. I don't change rules at my discretion, but you wouldn't know that!
 
For me as long as were all playing be the same rules Im ok with it. If its normal that a trade gets pushed early if its fair and no ones vetoed, than ok. As long as its Applicable to everyone, and everyone is aware of how it works. In this case I didnt know thats how the league has usually done things. I think itd make it easier to just have a rule that says after 24 hours if there are no vetoes itll get pushed through.
Yeah, when forming my opinion I chose simply to go by what the official rules say. I don't really get how that makes me in the wrong here or why that opinion should be invalid because I'm new. In my opinion all disputes should conform to the official rules first and foremost. I'm in no way saying that it has to be my way, that is just what I believe.

Now if the discussion was about what I think about the rule, I would agree that 48 hours is probably way more time than needed for people to vote. Other than you, Bones, and I there isn't anyone else contributing to this conversation though.
 
...seems like if there are 4 'no' votes that could veto a trade, then why isn't 4 'yes' votes pushing this thru? We've had at least 4 'yes' votes now, right? So then common logic would state that shit trade should go thru :dunno:
That's the type of way I've operated in the past but apparently that's a problem for Mr. Brandt here.

Wouldn't you need 5 yes votes to make sure? If there is 4 yes votes there still would be the possibility of 4 no votes, right?

Bones, once again please stop making this personal. I don't have a problem with anyone's opinion, nor is stating mine the same as having a problem.
 
On the app it lets me vote, but I dont know if it actually counts it or not.
If that is the case then allowing trades to go through with only 4 yes votes seems crazy to me since 2 of those could be the two teams involved in the trade.

If there are 7 yes votes and the other 3 haven't voted then sure it should go through because it would be impossible to be vetoed. If there are only 5 or 6 yes votes then it still could possibly be vetoed. Once again, 48 hours is a really long time to leave the voting open but that is the current rule.

Again just my opinion, if thats the way its worked before, and everyones ok with it than that is ok with me. It might be good to have it in writing some where so people are aware of it.

Maybe at some point we can revisit the rules?

It doesnt tell me if it counted it, or what the count currently is.
 
If there is 4 more "Yes" votes than "No" votes, then I have the power to push trades through excluding my own. That's how I've operated in the past, and that's how I will operate from here on.
 
This shouldn't even be a big deal SMH.

Fine. I'll wait till 3:15PM tomorrow to pick up a kicker...
Im not really trying to make it a big deal...

works for me. I didnt know thats how you guys had done things.

It just shouldnt alter anything you guys do and shouldnt be something that is an issue. It's basically me pushing through trades that are obviously fair and will obviously go through. That's literally all it is.

Is this why you're mad? Because you want to pick someone up?

I don't understand why this can't be discussed without it being "ridiculous".

If you can vote on your own trade, which tortured said he could, then 2 of the 4 votes could be the people in the trade.

No, that's not why I'm mad. Don't imply blame off you're actions onto something silly.

It's not even a discussion with you bro.

Yes, so what?

Once again, I'm just asking questions. We can't see the vote. Why have a 48 hour period if that's not how it's been done? Why not just vote on shortening it or just saying if you don't vote within 24 hours it will go through?

I can see the vote... It's 5 to uphold, 0 to veto. There's a 48-hour review period for questionable trades. Even if I think it's reasonable, if there's a couple of veto votes after the first 12-24 hours then I let the process play out to allow more people to vote since others think its questionable. However, if I think it's reasonable, and 5 people vote to allow and 0 vote to veto, it's pointless to wait because it's gonna go through. That's the logic.

Yes, so what?
What are my actions? You called me annoying, are complaining this is ridiculous, and basically told me my opinion is shit because I'm new. I'm trying to have a discussion with you. I've asked you several times to stop the personal stuff.

Okay, but before this topic came up couldn't I have thought I had 48 hours to vote given league rules and hadn't decided yet? Only 8 votes should matter, the two involved in the trade shouldn't get a vote, in my opinion, so that means in this case there are only 3 yes votes (assuming you also voted).

I just don't get why the rule is 48 hours if only the first 12-24 hours matter for votes?

I'll make sure to file a conplaint with ESPN.

The first 12-24 hours is to see if other people find a trade questionable or not. It's used to confirm me finding it reasonable. The second 24 hours I usually only give if people find it questionable.
 
So, no veto votes in the first 24 hours means the trade should probably be pushed though; at least 1 in the first 24 hours means it should go the full 48?

That makes a lot of sense to me (from an uninvolved objective perspective).
 
This is the first week Im having a really hard time figuring out who I want to play. Im gonna screw it up and let hj beat me...

Thats my whole ideology. I'm gonna do that.
 
If the Rams are gonna play crappy D the least they could do for me is let Rudulph get some td’s...
 
I think Ive got too many players in this game. I kind of think I screwed up this weekend, hoping I didnt give a week away.
HJ probably hopes I did lol.
