gently caress it, I'm an Eagles homer, gonna take AJ Brown for Parris Campbell and take my chances on the RB wire. The Shell has declared it so.

Trade submitted. Think it’s my third or fourth trade and I still suck rear end. My team is good on paper but can just never put it together. I attribute it to poor coaching and a bad environment in the locker room.

I don’t understand why my team sucks so much, but suck it does. Can I opt out of a trade this week? I don’t see any trades that would make my team any better.

I will say that you're missing that it's not always about making your team better: Sometimes it's about making the other guys team worse.

Soooo, this happens then? IF YOU DO NOT SUBMIT YOUR TRADE: Your shell is considered forfeit for the week. The first-place manager is now safe. The manager above you (in second-to-last place) now has 24 hours to force a trade to steal one of your players.

I'm gonna give Dr Donkeypunch some extra time on this because it's Halloween and also because if would be super lovely of me as a Commish to take his player after I said "eh whatever" because I forgot my own rules Edit: Man, I even wrote "don't want to shell?

Sorry didn’t see this stuff until this morning because of Halloween and whatnot. Appreciate the patience. I submitted a trade, but if it’s too late I accept the consequences and understand if I forfeit the right and someone sends a shell towards me. My season is hosed anyway.

Vargo posted:5: Play Normal: So obviously tank-to-win is a legit strategy here, but please don't keep injured/BYE week players in your lineup for the purpose of losing intentionally. I have no way of enforcing this, so just be cool. To be clear, is it OK to bench better players in the hopes of avoiding winning a week and being in 1st place? As long as the players we play are healthy?

Not only is that okay, it's a key strategy/element of the game. I guess I could have made that more clear than "Play Normal" when what I meant was "Don't keep in zeros to drop to the bottom" Edit: yeah, rule 1: Vargo posted:

I think Snowmankilla (Rainbow Road Warriors) is trying to 'limit' their lead in the hopes that someone catches up next week and gets blue shelled. I don't see a problem with that.

It's going to be extremely funny if Bullet Hill doesn't do his shell, opening the door for Toad Gurley to make a steal yet again.
