    He rolled all week long with too many players. Rather than choose a player that may or may not be less promising, I dropped the last player he picked up which I think is the fair thing to do. I'd rather choose who to drop, but rather drop the player that put the roster over the limit. Flash21 is active enough to know (or should know) where his roster stands.

    Nash was injured for a day, so there's not much you can do. Most everyone stays on top of their rosters. Anyway, I suppose I can remove the extra spot.

    I've been rolling with the same amount of players since I figured out how to drop and pick up a player for another from my phone. It's funny cause you could've just emailed me the way you usually do with the 'ectra' player(s) I have, but this time you choose to call me out on and pick up that same player. It's cool tho, I know there's jankyness going on here. No biggie.

    Jankyness? Man, I had a reply all typed up, but I'm not even going to dignify it with my full response.

    And as I said before, you are active enough to know (or should know) where your roster stands.

    I know how many starters I'm supposed to have. You should know that since I make " a daily drop" every week.

    Like I said it doesn't matter. You have Keliza I don't, luckily I don't take these things as life and death, it's just a fantasy game. I've made my mistakes and I like to win but it's seriously not that crucial. So *shrug* F it.

    Nothing wrong with enforcing the rules, I'm with you.

    I've played leagues that had a waiver system, though, where waived players were available on a delayed basis based on a claim system, instead of first-come, first-serve. It's too bad the site we use doesn't provide for that, because then you wouldn't be (needlessly) accused of "jankyness". Whatever that means.

    I agree. RocketsPimp has been good even great about enforcing the rules of the league. I also agree at your point of a waiver system but as you stated unfortunately the league doesn't provide that.

    Now on the JANKYNESS I was speaking of, take it as you like, RP and I have emailed back and forth frequently in fact the last chain of emails involved how often I pick up and drop players in the FA pool. I find it very odd that he wouldn't just email me letting me know that I was over the limit rather than post it here, even if he would have mentioned it in the last email conversation I would have understood. I even replied to him about how much time I haven't had to rumage through the forums here. Either way I know it was my fault for being over the limit, as fat as I knew I'd been obliging by the rules of the roster limit.

    I'm not crying over spilt milk so all this can be dropped. I just felt that you should know the facts before you ridicule my posts. In other words I don't care about Kleiza and it was so unimportance to me that I hadn't noticed till I saw that post by RP. Thanks for your concern. :grin:

    Yeah I got your jankies right here! :p

    I don't get this, I'm trying to pick up Manny Harris off the wire and it's showing he's available but when I try to swap him it tells me he's already taken even tho he's not on anyones roster. What's up with that?!

    I don't have him. Feel free to go pick him up....after you drop someone of course ;)

    Actually we can implement a waiver system. It's just never been used, at least not in this site format. I think we used it like 10 years ago on Yahoo or some other site because we had to. BobFinn (or the league) chose not to use it so I stuck with the status quo when I took over the commish role. We can limit transactions per week or per year, as well at max games per season. If you guys want to bring it up next year....

    Cuz I picked him up at 8:25. He was listed under G.

    Oh and just for the record, you could have had Kleiza after I dropped him. The entire league could have. He was on waivers for 3 days after I dropped him from your roster. If you really want me to explain why I didn't email you, I gladly will.

    Don't worry about it RP. I'm over it.

    Whoo! That win felt good. PSJ, that was for not answering my emails after that ridiculous deal went thru, thanks.

    Now you (RP) and I will begin the Janky Bowl. That's what we'll name our game this week, game of janks. :cool:

    Seriously. I was thinking the Pacers played more games than the Kings this week since they only played like twice last week but I forgot to change it back when I saw there was no difference.

    Ziggy's been watchin too much Tosh.O

    The trade deadline is just over a month away folks. If you're still looking for that SF to plug a hole in your lineup ;) or are in search of that elusive piece to get you over the hump and into the playoffs you have until Feb 19th to try and make something happen.
