Most of us aren't even using waivers. I'm 7th in priority despite not making a waiver claim since week 2

shrug. I don't take internet banter personal and try to never say offensive or derogatory things back. Better to ignore than complain and risk anyone getting banned on this site

I don't care about what he said to me but dumping his roster as some kind of protest is just that...immature.

I think I can edit his roster and give him back all the players he dropped and then lock his team. I think that might be the most fair thing?

Oh I was wondering why there were suddenly starters on waivers. Yeah, I think you should put them back if possible

I mean, I haven't done anything and I don't plan to until we talk about it but like....the way I feel is like he dumped his roster and players that one wouldn't normally get they can now get and it seems kinda unfair or something?

What do you think is the most ethical thing to do, let us vulture his roster or to let me put humpty dumpty back together again?

The situation sucks. I've never had this happen before.

As far as what is more ethical, both options are justified. I'd say put the team back since we are heading into W4.

But I won't object if the majority wants to keep the players on the market.

As much as I want DK Metcalf I do think the correct play is to put his roster back together and just let his team be an npc for the rest of the year but I'm also going to go with the majority.

Guy, I never made it a "point" I made a maybe not so funny joke about you drafting Fournette in the draft recap and maybe I made the same silly joke gain in the week 2 recap but this is the only time that I've come right out and said that you didn't have a great draft. Its not meant to be an insult and I'm not sure why you are taking it as one. I understand why you drafted the players you did but your roster hasn't really panned out and thats just an objective truth. Not sure why you are throwing a temper tantrum about it.


I mean, if the WW was meant to be set on not continual rolling list then that's on me but thats what it was previously set on and what I remember.

So maybe I didn't make a mistake?

So I consulted the internet. Most of what I found were sites/articles about who to pick up but I did find

https://www.fantasyjocks.com/blogs/news ... ball-rules

and what I felt was a really funny line
he last place team is catapulted to the top of the pecking order, getting his or her choice of the crop of free agents, regardless of how many moves you made in the previous week/s.
I assume only leagues consisting of members under the age of 14 use this setting
, and only because it was the default and they don’t know how to change it.
:lol:

and

https://dynastyleaguefootball.com/2015/ ... r-options/


both those sites, my personal feelings and several of you guys have said that FAAB is the most fair. I do like auction b/c everyone mostly has the same chance to get any player both in the draft and off waivers. In hindsight maybe I should have been more proactive and made the change to FAAB or at least proposed the idea of switching it to FAAB. I also think that L1 and L2 should have the same type of waivers so I'll send KMD a pm later and we'll talk about things.

Also its just a game.

Flameaxe did what? I can't access all fantasy football stuff while at work, but it sounds like he dropped everyone and messed with all the defenses.

Yay put humpty back together or give his team to someone else that wants to join the league. I don't get why flame would do something like that. Things escalated really poorly :(

With henry, schuster, tanehill and probably adams and mosert out should I tank in my non ms league to get better waiver? What you guys think? I hate setting that allow that, but should I do it since I got no one to sub in for that league? The urge to exploit the crappy system is high

i think moving the dropped players into his team and locking his team is the most fair way to handle it

I think putting his team back and locking it gives everyone in his division an unfair advantage and at least if the players were released those of us not in his division would have a shot.
