How do I contact Niv? I want to hammer home the hard cap point.
-
You have $56 incoming already, and a potential $50. Which just allows to do stuff like add/drop as if this is some streaming ESPN league. It's not. You'll see when your trade is unanimously vetoed that the owners in this league won't go for a $506 cap.
-
I've traded $25 out (cash for player, not cash+ for players, with a guy who had no players I wanted) and $10 in. My max cap is $415. That's minor.

this year for next year inevitably leads you to the dark side

that same trade could be done without the 50 dollar loan... like i said, that was my mistake because i am so used to trying to make deals and calculating how to cover the money from my guys in loans...

You have a $25 (incoming) loan on your balance sheet. $25 is ok? Where does it become bullshit? $37.50? We all know the rules of Ottoneu. If you want to go play 10 team standard ESPN, knock yourself out. Just play by the rules.
-
I could ship somebody Kershaw and Puig and $60 right now and virtually decide the league winner.
-
Dude that trade can't be made without a $50 loan. And $50 loans are bullshit. I wish Niv would install a hard cap in loans so that we don't have teams with payrolls at the deadline that are 10% or more over the $400 cap.
-
Great Divide Titans's trade block has been updated!
-
So you made that Kipnis trade based on how you valued the guys in the trade (even tho I disagree with that Bundy statement 1000%)... but I didn't go on the message board and drum up some veto noise. Cool.
-
Carlos Martinez is a RP long term, in about 80% likelihood. Bundy is a top-rotation guy, in 50% likelihood.
-
This is reminiscent of the Halladay-Davis trade in that I opened the mail on my phone and had 25+ ottoneu emails. I've been numb to that lately what with the 5000 add/drops this year.
-
and for the record (and for my own amusement) Carlos Martinez and Franco for Kipnis is not much different than Bundy for Kipnis

I think we should have a hard cap of $40. $1 for each player.
-
I like the hard cap idea

just catching up to the mayhem......I was the owner that accidentally hit approve when I meant to reject.....(seems to be a trend these days)

Personally vetoed based on the loan confusion. I can also vouch for Lon Con's efforts to make a deal over past few weeks (and my regrets now that I was not more aggressive sooner).

Good luck to everyone next year when my team is all breakout All-Stars at like a $6 average salary.
-
He asked if I could wipe his approve vote. So, if the trade passes by a vote, I'll wipe it. Apologies for misreading the message and causing an uproar.
-
Actually, it was from Atomic Punk, who hit approve but meant to hit veto, on today's trade.
-
Crap I'm sorry. That's a message from someone else about another trade. I haven't looked at Otto in several days.
-
you didn't call him a liar, just that he lied... got it. Makes perfect sense.
-
I didn't call him a liar, I said he was lying about this situation. Which seems true if you read other comments.
-
you are all more than welcome to veto it, and ill work something else out with 105
-
i seriously did not email the commish telling him i made a mistake... im the one who offered the trade, ive been trying to work out deals to build for my future for weeks now... i apologize if no one likes the deal that actually got accepted
-
for the record Long Con is your buddy right GDT? Maybe we already know you're ok with this trade. i personally veto'd the trade. And we all are welcome to an opinion. Calling the commish a liar is pretty bold... js
-
I'm also sure Long Con offered tons of other vets for prospects offers to other teams that didn't accept.
-
I was the one who accepted this trade, just for the record. Long Con has wanted profar and has sent many offers over...
-
We should have a hard cap of 425.
-
Dizzy, I'm probably going to be selling by the end of August so I'll give you a chance to catch up.
-
At the time I thought it was a fair trade that provided insurance for 2012 in exchange for future value.
-
i didnt realize how much cap space 105 already had or i wouldnt have included so much money... im used to offering loans to cover salary, including the money was just instinct
-
So at the time of the deal you believed it to be even because you knew what Chris Davis would do the following year?
-
I don't want to argue about this trade so much as it has made me realize that I don't want to be in ottoneu leagues - the lending format just lends itself to cheating.
-
3) The 2013 season, of which nothing more needs to be said.
-
Three facts about the Halladay trade (a horrible trade for me): 1) When I made it, I was so far in front I had a 95%+ chance of winning in this format (cumulative points), 2) Davis outperformed Halladay for the rest of the year at a fraction of the salary
-
It's not remotely insane, I agreed that it was okay for you to do that deal and I think this one is okay too.
-
Dizzy, does Halladay for Chris Davis ring a bell? That was a completely unfair trade at the time.
-
No, it wasn't GTD - that's so insane I won't even both with a more elaborate justification.

umm, i did not ask for that trade to be turned down... i did not email you, that is a bold faced lie... I want DeGrom and Profar and Winker, and i dont really give a shit about the guys im giving up beyond Ellsbury and Sanchez

I have an email from Long Con 36 minutes after the trade asking that I wipe it and saying he hit approve without realizing it. I assume based on the veto comments that's ok with all? (Except WHCP of course)
