Okay, is there anyway you can put all your special privileges in writing so those of us that haven't played in the league know all these things.

Once again, I'm totally not trying to fight about this again but this could have a real effect on the outcome of the league if you get to push a trade through so you can start one of the top rated QB's this week.

Fine, I'll make up specific rules:

- Anything done Saturday morning will get pushed through by Sunday unless there is suspected collusion or the trade is extremely unbalanced.
- On Saturday, anything by 10am will get pushed through by 9:45am Sunday if it doesn't have significant veto push (even then, it's subjective because some people could vote veto to try to hold up a deal for there own personal gain).. anyone from the forum who votes veto should also explain why (for all trades, regardless of time).
- I'm not going to punish those who get a trade done minutes after the 10am deadline, so there is a one or two hour grace period, dependant upon voting totals, trade magnitude, and other factors. Anything completed after 12pm on Saturday is guaranteed to not go through by 10am, but could go through by 1pm if all players have late games.

It sure makes you think really hard before you send a message or propose a trade lol.

Its been a good week for me, with NO having a bye week its been like well I’m starting Derek Carr and Baler Mayfield vs Mahommes and Aaron Rodgers, I might get super lucky! Its kind of got me relaxed about the games today. Going to get some work done and see how things shake out.

Well I had to pick up a waiver wire back up RB to fill out my line up. I have so many RBs unable to play.

You don't see how having unwritten rules are not only confusing to those that don't know them and could also possibly look like the commissioner has his own agenda (Bones I'm talking about rule power in general not this particular trade)?

I'm sorry, I know I've been told to shut my mouth and that my opinion doesn't matter. In the few weeks of this league this is now the 3rd set of trade rules I've seen. I'm used to the entire league or a neutral outsider getting the final say, especially when the commissioner is involved in the trade. When a trade occurs it follows the same protocol every time so that the rules aren't open to interpretation. If you didn't agree to a trade in time you have to wait until next week for it to go through. Once again Bones I'm not starting shit, just voicing my opinion. Trades should be like when a player gets dropped and goes on waivers. Last week you cut Corey Davis with the intention of picking him back up. You used the waiver wire process to your advantage and it was a smart move! In that case you used the fact he doesn't become available until Tuesday night and the official waiver rules. Just my opinion but trades should be handled the same way. A week later and you are pushing a trade through citing your power as commissioner so that you can play one of the top QBS this week. I'm certainly not trying to insinuate that you are shady or anything but if we just go by set rules there is never any doubt whereas in this situation the legitimacy could be questioned.

Making trades go through on Sunday based on the start times of games could in theory mess up someone's lineup between players that have already played and can't be dropped or them not being able to set their lineup between 9:50 and the start of games or whatever.

I love the fact that there have been trades in this league and that most people are actively participating.

I agree with having rules and sticking to them. I was talking about @HAAK72 commenting that it seemed like a bad trade.
