Nappy, the league transactions show you cut Rooker 4/5/24. Fry Guys won the auction for him and he's been on his team since 4/22/24.

Thanks for confirming guys — I was a bit panicked that it was a problem on my end.

Yes. This is the second day in a row it's been awful. If I can get into it I'm going to pause the auction until it's working. If any auctions ended I'm going to try to undo if I can to where they ended last night. This is ridiculous

DRAFT NOTES
If you have a nomination available, please nominate a player before making any bids. This is the same rule as last year, I assume nothing has changed.
On Tuesday I plan to reduce the auction time from 16 hour auctions with 8 hour resets, to 12 and 6. The rosters are currently 72% filled so hopefully we can finish up soon. If others want more or less time, please speak up. I'm not trying to dictate rules, I am just going by last year's draft rules. LMK if you disagree wit

Rosters are loaded, please double check your team. The draft is scheduled to start tomorrow, 2/25, at noon ETZ, 11 a.m. CTZ, 9 a.m. PTZ. After tomorrow the draft is scheduled to run 10 a.m. ETZ to 10 p.m. ETZ. It's currently set up for 16 hour auctions and 8 hour reset on new, winning bids. Unless anyone objects, I will move it to 12/6 and continually decrease the time as we move on. If that conflicts with anyone's schedule, please let me know and we can figure out how to handle it. Good luck!

Nappy, sounds like you had a great vacation! We all need those as much as possible. LOL. Thanks for checking back in. You will be the 10th team to join the draft. We are still waiting on Trash Can and Quails to join. I sent both a private message on here, but they haven't read it yet. Trash Can is in two other leagues and doesn't appear active in either. Quails was active on the 20th in one of his other leagues.

I just joined the auction and settings are okay from my perspective. I’m also okay starting whenever everyone wants to get the show started — the sooner, the better!

Thanks for setting this up Fly. Slow draft is definitely the way to go in this league. I'm logged in and am available to start whenever works for the rest of the teams.

8 hour extension time any time someone is outbid. Once everyone joins the auction, we can start it. We should decide what date we want to start. LMK if anyone can't join or if you think the 16/8 hour settings to begin with should be changed.

After you join the actuion, select the Join link and I think you have to enter the password once more. Either way, after you log in, it should recognize you as an owner and then I can assign the keepers to your roster. I can't assign Team Names, they are auto generated when you join.

We don’t have time to set it up this year, open to it. Fly on the W, can you set it up?

I'm sorry but Salmon you can't just throw that at is like you did and think it's ok. How about you start involving the league in some decisions? We've always done a slow draft since I've been in the league and I don't expect that to change.

yeah i think slow draft is the way to go. i'm fine with a live one but tough to get different time zones together

it's not set up as a slow draft right now. i don't have that subscription anymore. what time would work for you that evening?

On the road that weekend probably won't get behind a computer till later in the evening but it's the slow draft so not big deal I can log on later that night or Mon morning

set a tentative draft date. please let me know if that works or doesn't work for you. if it does not can you give me some suitable times near that date. thanks guys

However that has to be the rule at the beginning. Once salmon allowed the forgiveness he basically now has to allow same/similar for others. For this season. But for future seasons the rules should be ottoneu. Otherwise we get ourselves in trouble making all sorts of exceptions
Nappy Dugout on

To be clear my position (for whatever tf that's worth) is that we really should have no forgiveness. The rules are built in, articulated, available to everyone. Deadlines are established and reminders appear on the page. If someone makes a mistake or misses a deadline they live with it.

It’s also like, who is it? Is it the same person every time? Then no…. I think everyone should be given a free pass within reason. Hard to put a rule or anything in my opinion. Should be case by case
-
Think there's some confusion bc my comment was replying to salmon's inquiry whether to disallow forgiveness moving forward (apparently fly w posted while I was typing and it ended up looking like I was replying nah to fly w post about having established rules)

Fairness dictates consistent application for everyone, I agree 100%. Whether you keep it time or not is mutually exclusive and actually promotes consistent application.
Personally, I'm all for forgiveness,we're all human and have made mistakes. If that's what we decide, we should agree on the applicable criteria. Amount of time reporting it after it happened. Where/Who to report it. Are there any limits to how many times it can happen? What what should be considered? How long until a deci

It happened to me many times in different leagues over the years, I vote for we a fix but on a case by case basis. If an owner signals the mistake quickly, Commish could fix it.
