you are trying to apply off season "rules", which disregard caps, to in season rules, which regard caps. just because niv hasn't written code that keeps your roster locked and illegal until you make cuts to make it legal before entering the off season rules, doesn't mean there isn't a known line that everyone else can see and is following.
-
Also, this one: b. If at any time during the season any team's cap room is not greater than or equal to 40 minus the number of players on that team's roster, you cannot field a team. In this circumstance, your team will be frozen until the issue is resolved. The owner will be forced to cut a player to resolve this issue, and will not be able to perform any other activities in the game.

You can't enter the offseason with an illegal lineup for exactly the reason Princess said.
-
c. At no time should a team willingly go over roster and salary cap limits. If a team knowingly does this, they will face penalties at the discretion of their league's commissioner.
if you don't want to follow along, we can just head to second sentence.
-
The only reason we have to say it is not cool to do it is because you are purposely breaking the rules. It's really no different than a team going over their cap on 9/1 and saying, "I am so far out of the race that I am just going to stay illegal because I don't care about setting lineups." It literally would not be even discussed if you were not $79 over the cap. Everyone else is following the rules, so why can't you?

You really should be forced to cut $158 in salary or lose Rizzo and Abreu from your roster before the offseason begins.

Actually, the $400 part does not apply here because we both worked in the rules to change our maximum salary to $314 for you and $578 for me. I am well under my max salary while you are way over it and, like Indios said, is flaunting that you are well over it because you are under $400. Well, that doesn't matter because you being over $314 means your roster is illegal. Literally, everyone else in the league has a legal roster but you. I may not care if it was a few bucks over, but it is $79.

Can you please show me in the rules where the repercussions of having an illegal roster and anything beyond not having the ability to set lineups or participate in auctions? If we’re proposing a rule change I’m happy to participate in the discussion, however I think you are setting a bad precedent suggesting we create new rules on the fly.
-
we aren't in the off season. your roster is illegal. it's even worse when you sit here and basically mock everyone by knowingly trying to ride it out. it isn't a mistake, or an oversight. you are active and chatting and trying to defend your wrong position. i'd be in favor of the commissioner having pity on you, and just cutting your last two additions, instead of forcing you to cut 160 in salary.
-
I tend to agree with Princess. Cosby, you raise a fair point in that you’re still at/under $400, but if we adopt that view - to what end? Surely one should not be able to sit above its salary cap for the whole last week of the season; by your logic, when does it become ok to bust the cap, and why that date and not another? The fairer and cleaner rule would appear to be as Princess proposes.
-
Are you going to cut down to under 400? I don’t mind getting down to 40 players(+60 man dl players) but there is no precedent for cutting under 400
-
Thank you, VLM!

It just means that everyone should be regular season legal, Byrd. If your team is legal today, you would be good.

Correct, there is no salary cap in the offseason, but that is due to not wanting to punish teams being legal going into the offseason when the yearly increase and arbitration will make them illegal. It is not so a team can be grossly over the cap before the end of the regular season. It really is not fair to the league as a whole to have one team completely circumventing the rules while everyone is not. It's not cool that everyone else cuts down, but you feel like you don't have to.

While we discuss offseason requirements do we want to discuss if we want to do the 50 dollar league moving. forward or move up to the next tier. there seem to be some people interested in going to the 100 dollar tier Congrats to the top 3!
-
Does that mean everyone has to be under 40 players(outside of 60-day DL spots) and under $400?

There is no salary cap in the offseason. And if you are referring to my team I am still under 400 in salary
-
agreed. going past limits just prior to the offseason and hoping to fly under the radar is in the fairest light against fair play ethics, and in worst light it is against the stated rules of the game.
-
Due to events going on now, I think there should be some consideration about making sure everyone is regular season legal by the time the offseason starts. I am in a couple of leagues where this is a requirement and I enjoy it because it keeps people from acquiring players that they normally would not be able to get. I understand if everyone does not want to do it for this season, but it probably should be done for next season so no one is almost $80 over the cap before the offseason. Thanks.

I'll pass as no one should have any interest in a 1B-only $53 Rizzo in this format. Thank you for the congratulations though.
