TRADES

[Rab]

Serious question. Stacking teams for single league play sounds fun to you? You don't see an issue if people stack their team for 1 league only?

Being forced to focus your resources on a division you can't win sound fun to you?

[Grasps]

What kind of a genius idea is it to not let captains focus on their strengths or weaknesses? Sounds pretty stupid to me to force them to battle in all 3 leagues as a mediocre or a bad team. No idea who decided this "years ago", but sounds fishy to me.

Nobody decided it years ago. It was never a rule and he just pulled that out of his ass. The trade deadline was moved up so teams couldn't dump an entire line after they had already qualified, but there was a never a rule against it line dumping or focusing efforts in certain leagues. The idea was to move the trade deadline up, so if people did dump their line, they would have a tough time qualifying.

In what world is it actually beneficial to have Henry Saari in your basing lineup? Relax

[Shadowmere]

This trade shouldn't go through, pretty easy to see.. It's not fair to anyone, let alone these inexperienced capts. May as well delete basing games for Criminal (nearly there already) if this trade goes through. I don't think it's fair for teams to either draft for one league or to trade away their players to be strong in one league mid-season. It ruins the league overall. We moved away from this practice years ago and for good reason.

So you'd choose deleting basing for 2 teams instead of 1. Genius.

Rab - how can you say if this trade does not get approved PL will forfeit future base games...is this a threat? It was said in forums that PL had to forfeit last Sunday games because people did not show up or afk...it wasn't like your team did it on purpose

I mean if we can't try to fix our lineup, what's to prevent the same thing happening again? We can't do nothing. We can't be blocked from trying to fix it.

Dreamwin Nipple Nibbler Notice how everyone who’s saying “oh approve the trade approve the trade!” is on PL. I’d advise zid to get some more opinions on more neutral guys NOT involved in the two teams that are involved i.e. the names stated above and see what they think

I've fought for trades that weren't ours. I basically just think zid should be there as a safety net to prevent abuse, not trying to work out whether caps should or should not have agreed to their trades.
Also, notice how everyone who's against the trade is not on PL. Being on neither team doesn't make people impartial.

[Tiny]

Lets hear some more from halo players, who were offered the chance to offer something better but couldn't and hour before we agreed to it? Biased players who want markmrw obviously angry about it. Or maybe we can hear from Rough who told people before draft his availability is limited and dont pick him but seems to have played 12 of 12 games? You don't want to hear unbiased opinions, cuz you will look stupid. A 3 leaguer for 2 1 leaguers. Everyone knows kado is a very high rated 9* jav, but is a luxury as me and him were sharing time in jav. he is as stated above, useful in wb as he played in wb finals, and clearly a very good spider. Afghan could easily pick up someone in FA and be better off in base than he was with mark/henry, but you guys are so 1 dimensional and butt hurt because you missed out on a trade, you have to throw wild accusations and outlandish value differences based on shit knowledge. The trade is fair in value, and what people want to do with their lineups is up to them as caps. We are clearly trying to win and can go by whatever game plans we want, unless of course we are going to manage each others teams now?

[Rough]

This hurts Afghans team a lot since he is only going to be using Kado for jav while throwing the towel for base which technically ruins the league competitiveness. Actually, as a player I'm kind of mad because Kado performance is limited to the point it's a waste because he actually does 3 leagues. He was in the finals for WB last season and is a good spider. Tiny is getting a top 5 shark who is a 9 and Henry who is s 9 as well. This benefits tiny's team tremendously.

Zid - I know we troll a lot daily but use the better judgement here.

dreamwin> but i dont even care anymore
dreamwin> I've been rejected trades many times
Tiny> no, apparently zid going to ask caps

[Rab]

It was crip who said kado had a limited show rate. But that's bs, there's no reason to think kado wouldn't show every week for afghan.
But as Tiny said, whether people show or not is not relevant.

[zidane]

Tiny it was a different league back then, the star rules were far different which made stacking actually beneficial. There's only so many javs a team can add with an overall star cap. I do agree it's not my job to dissect trade fit.

I've never mentioned anything about kado's show rate, I'm not aware of him saying he'd have a limited show rate.

[Tiny]

zid - You aren't the cap of afghan's team. The trade isn't abusive so you shouldn't block it.
Also bear in mind that if you block this, Tiny's team is likely to forfeit future base games. So if you're favouring avoiding one team's forfeits over another that's just favouritism. Tiny is trying to fix his forfeit situation and you'd be the one blocking it.

That's exactly what it is. Also, apparently cripple mad he didnt get mark for his team. So, a bunch of whining on here from people who didnt get theirs.
