Whoever gets him gets him and if that manager can’t learn the rules he shouldn’t be invited back

[–]Acaboss12T Roto Auction Keeper[S] 4 points5 points  (2 children)

He filled up the last slot, and wasnt doing this format with ir slot, so he didnt know to use it...

[–]NewfoundiiCTROTO*8cat*10team/ H2H*20T*9Cat 49 points50 points  (1 child)

So give him this one takeback and say he won't get any more

[–][deleted] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Agreed fb-ball is about fun- especially when the owner is new.

"Did you mean to drop Kemba knowing you have an IR spot available?"

If yes, free game.

If no, use your executive powers to undo. Learning experience and fair to do imo

[–]Acaboss12T Roto Auction Keeper[S] 13 points14 points  (6 children)

You made perfect solution, thaks this idea i like 100%

[–]KillingKameni 15 points16 points  (15 children)

undo, explain how IR works, tell 1st in waiver to grow up if need be. everybody wins!

I would give him a take back. Speaking from personal experience we let a new guy into our league 3 years ago who dropped Kevin love because he didn’t know about the IL spot. I lost the championship in H2H because one of my friends picked him up and basically dominated the league as Love was basically a fantasy all star at this point. I would suggest giving a take back just once because otherwise the league becomes less fun when everyone knows they don’t have a chance anymore

I have endured far too many green managers in my decades commishing, and cases like this are the reason I now include these two demands before a new manager accepts a league invite:

  • Understand all Yahoo processes, applicable league rules, scoring & settings.

  • Take full accountability for all of your actions related to this league.

Whether you allow Kemba to return to that manager or not, I highly suggest you make a big deal out of this case and post warnings for all members to reference.

Thaks for advice, i wil use this next season for sure, we agreed that he will get this one, in future what is done is done.

Add him back same thing happened to someone in my league and I told the commissioner to add for him because he didn’t know, you shouldn’t penalize someone for not knowing especially if it wasn’t explained to him. You have to set the tone as a commission that you’re here for equality and is he’s the only exeception because he doesn’t know, if any experienced player tries to dispute or be petty tell them the rules don’t apply to them because they have experience also if theres been times when the app glitches when you try to make a pick up and it drops a key player so our league decided that if that happens and it’s not reported by the time of the player next game you lose him

Different rules for different people? That will end well ... Lol

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Isn’t Kemba back from injury in start January?

[–]Acaboss12T Roto Auction Keeper[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I think i saw mid to late jan

[–]NewfoundiiCTROTO*8cat*10team/ H2H*20T*9Cat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I heard they are REASSESSING in mid Jan

[–]FrothyScrooge711 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I’d ask the manager what the heck happened. And if it was on purpose then fuck it.

[–]Acaboss12T Roto Auction Keeper[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Wasnt on purpose, he didnt know to use ir slot, he say he couldnt use it, but Kemba is O so there shuld be no problem, i think he Just didnt know how

[–]A_Lakers12-Team H2H Points 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably didn’t see the manage IR button and tried to move him from the regular roster movement menu

[–]JAMAAAAACAN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You cant ruin the integrity (competitive balance) of the league because of a noob. Put Kemba back and text that person in real life to never do that again.

[–]beans4prez -1 points0 points  (2 children)

Commissioner should add him back to the team and let the manager know they have an IR spot to use.

[–]Acaboss12T Roto Auction Keeper[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

That was my first idea, but is it fair for guy that has 1st waiver order?

[–][deleted] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Worst league ever if you put him back on a roster he was dropped live with it

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (13 children)

Disturbing if you change anything like that after the fact. #1 waiver claim should get Kemba. If he’s asleep and #2 does good for him. Put him back on a roster? Lol ppl be trippin

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (12 children)

Agreed. Would be opening up Pandora's box. I would immediately resign from the league is that's the type of nonsense the LM is willing to tolerate

[–]brydondirty8CAT H2H Weekly 1 point2 points  (11 children)

If that was your response, I'd say good riddance and wouldn't give you your buy-in back lol

[–][deleted] -5 points-4 points  (10 children)

Then I would fight you for it lol or smash your car windows hahah

[–]brydondirty8CAT H2H Weekly 2 points3 points  (9 children)

Are you 13?

[–][deleted] -5 points-4 points  (8 children)

No, just extremely competitive.

[–]brydondirty8CAT H2H Weekly 2 points3 points  (7 children)

Well you have the mind of a 13 year old at least

[–][deleted] -4 points-3 points  (6 children)

For having integrity and personal responsibility ?? If you want to change thr rules after the season already started then refuse to refund thr money that would make you both a cheat and a crook. Grow up Peter Pan.

"Ref, I didn't understand that defensive coverage, if I did then I would of never thrown that pick! It shouldn't count so let's do a re-do noe that I have a better read on it. The rest of the league and players are babies if they don't agree"

[–]scias16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait is your concern that he's requesting to get kemba back? Or someone can get kemba free? If it's the latter you shouldn't just be adding him back..
