It would require me getting my deals for more money and longer terms. Yes, I bid the most for those players, like many, but not all, winning bids.
This, as stated, is not one of the options on the table since it require support not just of me and each of the other parties, but it requires support of the League management, and that has been at least implicitly denied repeatedly since it is not one of the 2 options.
As I said, I tried. I tried for a few hours, and I started early before the ripples got too large (so far, none really that I can tell, so at least there is that), and I was quite patient and reasonable until my reasonable follow-on proposals that did not require a re-sim were met with a wall.
I can be reasonable. I was. I was reasonable first. I was reasonable longer.
It got me nothing.
Would have been nice to get that at 8:39 when I proposed it privately. That didn't get a response. The rant did.ballsohard wrote:I just gave you go-ahead from league management to pursue option 2.42PhD wrote:Well, I would if it was an option.

It may come down to that. Not sure, may max out some red red guys, call it a typo, avoid the tank warning.Hugo wrote:I'll be kind since I had a nice FA, and I'll give you Hilton Armstrong to help create a twin tower defensive nightmare with Webber.

No details of your bids were made public. Since Nick was an involved GM i gave him a heads up to option 2 and what may have been coming, but no where did I reveal the bids issued.42PhD wrote:NickMalone77 wrote:To put this whole issue or whatever to bed, I'm not dropping Buckner at this time.

More rush job by management. I was writing Nick about something else, and he brings this up to me. The facts, of course, are not in his possession in sufficient number, and this is what we get.
Why oh why are the details of my bids that I didn't make public, or the game by virtue of winning bids, being made public?
That's a detail, just not all the details.IamQuailman wrote:No details of your bids were made public.

The file doesn't read from the bottom up? That is the way it seems in other cases, but perhaps FA is different.Soundwave wrote:Marshall signed before the others if that is what you are asking.

Correct me if I'm wrong - but didn't they say they would allow our own inputting moving forward like 3 times in this thread? I imagine some sort of technical structure would need to be set up, but that's the solution you want isn't it? What is the goal now?42PhD wrote:The spectacle, not the facts raised, is what is in dispute, yet the deadlines stay fixed, nothing to change despite time pressure being cited as an issue is the FA error.
Still, I have a sooner deadline to make some decision or other about mistake someone else made, no time to follow through or discuss alternatives, not that I was given real consideration prior to making a spectacle, so I can them have less time to make FA bids than others.
All because why?
And even after being robbed of a fair FA, I see no indication of any change that is being made to try to stop the errors from continuing.
Just oops, and you don't have to keep the contract that you didn't ask for IF you hurry.
Oops, you don't have to keep the contract that you didn't ask for IF you hurry, and here is what is changing, finally, about inputting, is a better response.
So you'd like, what? To pause the offseason until Wig comes back? Good luck on that vote, sir.42PhD wrote:That is set up for UFA 2?
Or that is what they are signing Wig up for? Or that is what Wig wants but we aren't there?
I don't see Wig saying it. I know while he is gone, he is blindly backing removing my fair market bids and maybe my cap space, too, but I don't think they can constrain his future action or his timetable.
And I certainly don't see anything for UFA2 other than hurrying.
There are plenty of rivalries and enemies in this league, and I think that vote would bring them all together. Could be good for league harmony.TheSyndicate wrote:So you'd like, what? To pause the offseason until Wig comes back? Good luck on that vote, sir.42PhD wrote:That is set up for UFA 2?
