Sorry pals, I really didn't mean to cause a commotion, as KK said I thought it was already accepted and just wanted a ruling on my own stupidity.

 

Since it seems like at least half the league wasn't aware of this rule and I was and just f***ed it up, shall we make that the rule going forward that it's on you? ...it seems to go with the spirit of no commish avail = too bad.

 

Plus I don't want Dinger having a crutch after I bounce his ass.

 

If I was considering this de novo the rule would definitely be prospect promotion = a weekly add (with the limited exception of if someone is at 5 adds already and they need to promote to facilitate a trade.)

 

With the rule already stated in the past I figured it only fair that it should apply to your situation. But if you are cool with new rule then new rule it is, for now and always. Prospect promotions are basic weekly adds. DINGER ADD THIS TO THE OFFICIAL RULES.

 

I recently switched to an iPhone and I finally realize that simpler = better.

I really would rather not be bothered into commissioner adding someone's lame prospect a few times every year...

Yeah I mean if you're going to beat me for the first time this season, now would be the time to do it.

someone is going to pay in Dodgeball tonight as Dinger takes out his anger.

 

Dodgeball is actually serious f***ing business. There is a lot of strategy at play and in the leagues I play in, many guys throw curves, cutters, etc. If you don't wear knee pads you will definitely regret it.

On a scale of 1 - terrible, how bad is it that the first thing I did when I read knee pads at the end of that was read the sentence again as if it was all sexual innuendo :P

Sexual innuendo and dodgeball go hand in hand.

Long story short, if you need to use all of your adds to stream s***** starters, then all you are is a s***** connorp.

 

Nah, it's the right move for everyone once or twice a year.

Apparently you have trouble adapting in those times when you don't have like 6 aces.

So not to reopen a big can of worms, buuut...

 

To clarify yesterday's chat, we are now counting promos as requiring one of your weekly adds, so that can't happen in trade circumstances any more for free or...?

 

Just rereading the comments it seems some people felt it was good the way it was established, and I didn't mean to throw my weight behind a rule change, I just meant it's on you if you f*** up and add them yourself knowing the (previous?) rule, as I did, then you're s*** out of luck (which I support.)

 

In all honesty I did kind of have Snell prepped as a potential "secret weapon 6th add" earlier in the season, but blanked on my plan and promoted him ahead of schedule.

 

Ya, I'd like to know too. What's the hard rule on this going forward?

 

That was my plan with Musgrove as well.

Yep, I updated it last night as per Czar Nick's instruction.

 

 

O.K. Stupid Proboards doesn't update the time of the post when it gets edited:

 

11. Prospect promotions are basic weekly adds, which are to be processed by owners themselves using the Add Player function in Yahoo. Commissioners may use the Commissioner Tools to add a prospect to a roster only in order to a process a trade. Commissioners will not add a prospect to an owner's roster for the purpose of exceeding their weekly add limit. Boxy is a jerk and I'm right.

Being right isn't as important as getting my way :)

 

"Have It Your Way" is a Burger King slogan. I thought you were more of a McDonald's guy.

Anyways... Turning our attention away from mediocre food for a moment. I noticed that Yahoo listed DTDs this year for the first time. Hopefully this means more flexible DL settings in the future. In September, DTD can easily mean out for the season.

Saunders lays down a sac bunt with a runner on 2nd and nobody out in the first inning and the GDT rejoices. This forum is awful.

Good lord that is terrible baseball.

Stepping on your dick is going to be all the sweeter after taking the high road, you scoundrel.

 

TBH I don't really mind losing to you either way.

Damn, we better have a LOD replacement ready, just in case...

 

What was the entire trade? Pollock and Felix for Bum and Gordon?
