It can be used for ANY injured player?? Lock fucked around with this message at 11:08 on Dec 12, 2018 |

Lock posted:ALLEZ FOOTBALL!!! Anyone who is IR or even O. Once they return to health, you can’t make roster/waiver moves until you move that player, though.

But note O players usually revert to Q on Tuesday even if they will be out the following game. They stay that way until their team makes it official which is anywhere from Wednesday to Friday. This sucks because to do any roster moves you have to cut someone to move that player from IR even though they will be going back on IR in 24 - 48 hours.

After starting 0-6, I roared back and would have avoided relegation had Wentz scored 4 pts in that game instead of 1. Ah well, toss me back in with the chaffe next year. ![]()

That game could not have ended any better for me, seriously. I spent my 4 years in Raleigh watching him do that same thing at Carter Finley, really hoping he gets his ring this year. Look, I have played in the semifinals all 3 years I've been in this league. I have lost out both previous years. I AM DUE.

I...what? I won? I'm PROMOTED? So I came down with the flu over the weekend and was not really in any condition to follow what was going on beyond (literally) feverishly checking the score updates whenever I woke up. Last I checked I was behind by enough that I had given up. Totally forgot about the Monday night game. My boys won one for me. zeroordie posted:
this is also me rn

Lock posted:I...what? I won? I'm PROMOTED? Cam is hurting much worse than I gave credit for. Then again nobody expected CMC to pass for 50 and a tuddie either, which was what put you over the top. Really you should have won outright if you had Breida in once he was declared good to go so I got a second bite. Still got a second shot this week though! COME ON CONNER PLEASE PLAY!
|

Maybe it was the fever talking, but I purposefully left Breida benched. It sounded like he still wasn't 100% and I figured SF wouldn't risk him too much with nothing to play for. 'Course, I was wrong...but then again Breida did end up getting injured again. Which actually kinda sucks because I really could use him for the championship game. Yeah, Connor can come back now, I'm down with that.

Conner is dead and not invited to this Iron Chef battle. I just call me Bobby Flay because I’m about to slice and dice my way to Tier A.

Would you say...the secret ingredient for the battle will be...ムラサキウマゴヤシ? (Look it up, but it's probably the joke you think's being made.)

Sorry folks for being AWOL. We have a new baby incoming tomorrow (12/20) so payouts may be a little slow this season (after the first of the year) until I can get back to my computer. Regulation winner - Anubis survives to live another year in Tier A! Suave Fedora Master Stur SouthShoreSamurai are banished to hell or as we call it Tier B. Tier A Championship game is zeroordie vs Jabro for the crown. In Tier B news Lock and Baser instinct have locked (heh) up invites to the bigs. Chen kenichi and Alfalfa are battling it out for the final slot. We'll get the office season business complete early Jan (payouts, keeper rounds etc) and then we'll schedule the keeper deadline and draft later on. Last bit of business I never received payment or messages back from Waroduce in Tier B. Looking back scoring it looks like it autodrafted for him and no management. I should have caught it before drafting but in the rush I missed it. How does everyone want to handle the modification to the payouts?

Sounds like you got bigger things on your mind, so that's understandable. Not sure of the best way to go about fixing it though. Either way, congrats on the kid, hope everything goes well!

So is that 2 one and dones in Tier A from last year's advancers? Is that typical? First year in GoonTier, so I'm curious how the new teams to Tier A typically fare.

Lol keeping Cook would've kept me in if everything else played the same ohhh wellll. I did myself no favors this year but the supplement draft and regular were real slim pickings

That's not sour grapes, it's his reward for finishing 1st in Tier B 2 years ago. But the available players were... not great. I actually did really well picking my IDP guys off of waivers (and Chubb becoming starter in like game 7-8), but that lack of talent in the beginning of the year killed me.

Lots of those teams win, jump to the next division, then get relegated next year due to finances/squad skill/etc. Staying up isn't supposed to be easy! As for the match this week I believe I will feature 苜蓿芽麻婆豆腐 (no idea if that works!). ムラサキウマゴヤシ まーぼーどうふ might also work? Either way I plan to win......I MUST win. Even if I have to use google to fail at Asian languages!

I'm just curious how it has historically played out. How hard is it with these settings to break into and remain in Tier A?
