Veto the veto. That’s an excellent name

 

[Matthew Jelley]

Hope its a safe arrival and you get plenty of time off to enjoy an amazing time

All finished, well done everyone. Pretty damn smooth all in all.

As an fyi I will be pretty much MIA for the next little period welcoming new bubba next week so please see Matthew Jelley for any league related issues, all the best for the upcoming season.

 

[Matthew Jelley]

Great work all on a speedy draft without issues

Yet somehow the other 2 finished 1st

Just noticed the waiver order is back to front with the premiers currenty sitting with waiver 1 and wooden spoon on waiver 14 with a rolling lockout.

Can we get this reversed before someone jumps on for something?

 

[Matthew Jelley]

Looks like it can only be editing with a pro account
Amy suggestions?
I can edit the order to move to reverse ladder order after each round but is that the norm?

Are we allowed to start picking up free agents?

 

[Matthew Jelley]

Going off last year it started right after the draft

Are we allowed to start picking up free agents?

 

[Matthew Jelley]

For some clarity around pre-season waivers, unless there is strong objections we will continue with precedent already set in Keeper which is that Free Agents are open post draft and any picks taken from this point in time come out of the season limit of 10

Jelley is right that the precedent is waivers are available right after the draft. Dont see any reason to change it personally.

Which is fair if the waiver order was accurate in 14 (premiers) - 1 (wooden spoon). But it's not. It's a paid feature, so until then it becomes unfair if a player is a RFA and a higher placed team from last year got access before a lower-placed team.

Didn’t waiver order gets determined by league position x points divided by pie?

 

[Matthew Jelley]

Unless we are all willing to pay for premium there is no fair way for everyone to navigate this
The only thing I can think of is all SSP players are untouchable until a certain round of the season when we will have waivers in reverse ladder order and a few games in to shape the ladder

Agreed. It’s only pre rd 1 that the ladder order is not reversed (probably to help non dynasties leagues who get a late pick).

The only other solution post this season is no drafting till after rd 1.

I'm fine with this.

I just want an even playing field for everyone. Not a lucky reward based on a platform's premium resources being a cost to us all to keep it fair.

 

[Zim^zuM]

I think i should be exempt from this

 

[Matthew Jelley]

Given some moves have already happened i think that part should be left and just the SSP players are locked

That actually is good imo. SSP are the only ones we didnt get a chance to draft

Confirming all SSP adds are blocked from Waivers/FA until the conclusion of round 1 where they will become available and the waiver ladder has been updated
To help with any waiver or FA pick ups I will also note them at the tip of this thread to keep tabs on the 10 player limit

So im free to pick up Ryan Gardner? Need an edge in defence

 

[Matthew Jelley]

flaps as above SSP players are locked until after round 1

 

[Matthew Jelley]

Keeper replied to Zim with a method of adjusting waiver priority
I thought I had already tried that method but let me try again

flaps as above SSP players are locked until after round 1

Got it.
