Gudnason 607 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Oh, you two fellows battle it out. I've got enough draft picks from earlier today to reach the cap floor this time around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DollarAndADream 3,356 Posted August 3, 2017 Author Share Posted August 3, 2017 That was my argument last season. I didn't like that people were throwing $7M right away either, and I lost out and my argument kind of just floated away. So this time I'm doing it myself.

I never liked the ruling either that you could just throw $7M at someone right away, and get them. But that's what people did last season and I lost out on guys because of it. As per rule, the first one to do it gets him, so I did it this season to ensure I wouldn't be the one losing out. I mean either you post first and get him, or you wait for some idiot to post a lower amount first, then you immediately offer $7M and get him. So what's the better way to do it? Either way it's stupid. If we go to a randomizer eventually I'm fine with it, but if we do it now immediately this season after I lost out on guys last season, then that would suck.

What if people have work and can't stay up until midnight, or what if someone lives in a different timezone and midnight ET is 4am or something for them? Whoever sacrifices their sleep the most wins?

This is why I did it from my phone at work. I work nights. But, it didn't pay off anyways, because he came back. Although, I think he should still be mine because he was inactive and I was "awarded" him already. But obviously @701 doesn't want to come to Toronto on the best team available to him, so his loss.

It's Free Agency. I spoke to him on SHL earlier and hadn't seen the post. Didn't think speaking to an FA was against the rules. It happens all the time. Jericho came back and signed just to be traded from STO, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banackock 7,634 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 @DollarAndADream It would be the same as me going onto SHL and messaging NUCK and telling him to comeback to the dark side and regain activity again (which he did). (I've also mentioned to 701 to recreate at the deadline - so fingers crossed both stick around). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have loved to have him on my young roster. @701 Come on, man! Reconsider the Legion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my eyes, I just hope he sticks around and does actually decide to recreate at the deadline @701 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gudnason 607 Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 How about you two stop arguing over the rights of a depth winger soon to retire. I doubt he will be the difference between a cup or not on your rosters. Let's cross our fingers that we got a member back, and hopefully continues to be active. Thanks @Banackock In my opinion, the best way to keep this guy's interest is for him to return to his roots in Cologne and rack up a shit ton of points.
