This is the end. You can continue fuming all you want. I'm here to play. And truly, respectfully, I hope you can come to terms with how you played a key role in the consequences of your own actions. With love and respect. ~Mike

Please, I proved nothing. I said we all said musial was welcomed back
-
Yep proved my point hells. All the commish needs to do is state 2 different set of rules. If he never sent out the email we wouldnt be in this situation

Thank you for your time.
-
No I'm proving my point. Musical was unblocked before a vote. I had to.ask the commish what was going on so the commish made to solve decisions to unblock him. Meanwhile my block was put to a vote. Fact mr hell. Get your facts straight? I thought you were done?

One more thing, because you seem to have shifted your argument drag another owner into it. You can't monday-morning-quarterback Elefantes monday- morning-quarterbacking the way the matter at hand played out. We took a straw draw at the time. No one objected. In my experience, auctions are not generally paused either. This was a group decision.

I dont trust you hells. Your actions speak otherwise.

I am 100 per cent sorry this has happened to you. But own up to it. That's all I'm going to say on this matter. This is a closed case. Shades was justified and unanimously supported. Let's get on with it.
-
Funny you consider talking and speaking respectfully about my judgement of the situation and our respective parts in it as an attack.
By the way, my trade offer was fair and an attempt to help you feel included. Because believe it or not, I care a great deal about the overall vibe of places I hang out. And this league is one of those places. And if you want to be a member of this group you have to hear us and understand how this happened.
But I would never publicly admonish you. Know that.

Funny hells wants to trade with me but they attacks me.

No hells when I believe in something I stand firm. Like I said different rules for different owners. I have asked the commish to realize this and in guess not.

BTW has anyone seen the sheer volume of ottoneu leagues Musial Suspects is in? How in the world?! Seriously, look at the owner page for user oscartrauma. WOW.
-
Is that really the case with Elefantes? Because I clearly recall those of us in the draft voting unanimously to lock you, Astros. And yes, we did approve of Musial being allowed into the draft when he arrived.
This is all very silly. Houston, I have PMed you back and forth since the draft asking you to please let this go and to recognize you brought this on yourself. Instead you double down and now drag this out into the league message board. It's gotta stop. Please try enjoy the game.

I was typing a message kenny and miss a pick so you are incorrect.

Bottom Line: if you are going to be a stickler for rules, actually read them as written. Fiddy Shades clearly said discretion would be involved and I think he performed that duty admirably - you had more to gain, clearly were doing it in protest and Musial did give us a warning and explanation. So you aren't even technically right. And at the end of the day, you are still going to get your 12 $1 players, so move on. Name the team owner who backed you up, by the way - because I missed that.

You were unlocked without a vote while I was not

Well sorry about your wife and do wish her better but at that time we have no idea if you we’re telling the truth. You got a fair shake but the commish never asked me why I wasn’t nominating. I didn’t get the same treatment. If the commish would realize this we could move on. That all is ask. I want to get along with everyone but the commish ignored me and didn’t even want to discuss this with me.

My apologies to the commish and the leaguefor this being such a huge issue.
-
So rest assured Astros I didn’t screw myself over in another league where I had more $$$ and spots needed to gain some marginal value in this league.
-
So I actually had to leave another draft I was involved with in the middle of the draft with over $100. League members in that league will attest to it , and it royally screwed me in another prize league. I did so because my wife was violently throwing up and we needed to run to the emergency clinic. Once they gave her some fluids and got everything stabilized, I sent a message to the league via the board estimating what I thought was my ETA, and it ended up taking us longer to get out.
-
And you unlocked musical without asking the other owners. He was able to make a nom and then you aka the other owners. Again no consistency

Others agree you should have stopped the draft. Thats a fact. Just thought it was odd a medical emergency and some one can make a draft. Hard to prove either way. You should realize I was not try to embarrass the commish. You could see I was typing but you never bothered to give me the benefit of the doubt and ask me but you did the opposite for musical.

It wasn't a matter of consistency. It was a matter of situation. An owner was late (who you, by the way, accused of lying) and was unlocked because he gained no benefit from his situation of not attending the draft to begin with. You decided not to nominate four times in a row in order to challenge me - all while commenting continuously. I decided, with the approval of your fellow league-mates, to lock you out for your lacking of adhering to the rules. That is my answer.
-
I messaged Astros back. Most answer is in the next post. If I overstepped my boundaries as commissioner, I am fine with relinquishing the duties.

Amazing, isn't it? I've never seen anything like this in all my (one season of) playing ottoneu!

Aw maan, thats bad JV, but kinda fun to watch all the auctions run!

Nice trade for both teams.

Open to trade talks, got a few holes to fill lol. Need outfield embarrassingly badly

For the record I was bidding on players before I was locked so saying I was trying to cheat is incorrect. Did anyone bother to ask me? I was typing messages and missed my turn. Appreciate you get your facts straight before making up stories.

I will and you are incorrect. I already have 3 trade offers those offers will get no response so dont waste your time. Musical missed bids and broke the commish rules

Exactly what Elefantes said.
-
Okay, have fun with the waiver wire. That will show us.
-
By not being present, Musial was not gaining any advantage. In fact, he was disadvantaged by not being able to bid on the best players.
When you missed bids it was in a very different situation. You had very little money, and a lot of spots to fill. For you, waiting until the end would be beneficial for you. That's why the commish locked your roster. You were present and actively breaking the rules for your benefit. Musial being late didn't give him an advantage, your actions did.
-
Nope the attacks and naming calling will result in no trading. I'll be competing to win via waiver wire only, the commish still owes me an explanation why musicals was reinstated but not me.

It was unfortunate that commish had to step out during the draft, but stuff happens. Good luck this year, hope to see you making trades and competing.
-
Well musicals missed many moms and I missed 2. The commish should never had sent that email and by doing so he has to hold all owners accountable. That's the problem here. He decided to favor muscial Nd not me, big problem here

Astros- I understand you disagreed with the commish about Musial missing bids, and that you felt like your concerns were ignored. I think if we could go back and do it over, we would have paused the draft and discussed it.
That said, if you read the note commish wrote this morning, he never said if you miss any nomination you will be locked out. He said, if there are issues he would use his judgement to decide the most fair way to handle it.
