I basically check in and if it's open I start picking up free agents. I'd never try to circumvent rules, I simply assume the commish is doing their job
Meh, it's a pain to remember to go back in and change it every Tuesday morning.  The rules are well established and posted and we even had it come up at the beginning of the season.  
it may be a pain, but its the commish's responsibility to open and shut the door. otherwise people will go in, good intent or not.
So if I leave my door unlocked anybody is welcome?
if you want to butcher a non-parallel analogy, then sure.

I shouldn't have to ever change the settings, you **** monkeys should be able to adhere to the rules without my babysitting.

i will not adhere to the rules.

jstnklly offering anyone else blockbuster deals in $ ?, or is it just because i have tons of cap room?
I'll trade you wiki...
He keeps offering me lots of guys with big contracts, for my guys with big contracts, but they are all old and I want nothing to do with them.
he offered me a deal that wasnt ridiculous, but clearly had me absorbing contract and getting older for most of my best young players, had us exchanging superstars
You sure that wasn't the offer from me?  That was exactly what I did as well, although none of the contracts were bad.

the rules say free agency closes once the final game of the week is played, but that is not what is happening. the commish isn't adhering to the rules.

Procedures-

Send a sitemail to the dubbs1023 mailbox requesting the player you want, the amount you are bidding and the player you want removed from your team.  If all three things are not included, it is not considered a bid.  Both myself and TM will have access to this mailbox and will be able to confirm bids for each other.  The mailbox will be opened on Thursdays, sometime after 12:00pm ET.  Any bids received after that time are not counted.  The only time this schedule changes is on the week of Thanksgiving the process will be handled at 12:00 ET on Wednesday.  The players will be placed on the team that won the bid and Free Agency will then open for the week.  It will close again once the final game of the week is played.

it does close, as all transactions after the monday night game and before the FA Auction is complete are voided.

It's understandable given your profession, Dave, but I think you may be throwing around "job" a little too liberally.

11.15.2010 HBD Update

We have included a new Private World Rules Page. This page allows the commissioner to post rules for their private world. All owners in the world will be able to view the rules. This will give us a better idea of what rules were outlined and agreed upon by private world owners. If any of the rules have been violated we can now handle these types of situations much quicker. If you are currently a private world commissioner we highly encourage you to add your private world rules as soon as possible. You do not have the ability to alter or delete your rules. If you need to change a rule just post the changes.

When comparing max contracts to a free agent we are now incorporating loyalty with their previous franchise. If a player has been with a franchise for more than 5 seasons that franchise will have a significant advantage during the negotiation process.

Top flight Rule 5 Draft eligible players will now be protected automatically if a user has not logged in for 5 days prior to the Rule 5 Draft roster freeze

Top flight draft picks and International free agents will now be assigned and inactivated automatically at the end of the season if a user leaves them pending assignment. The players are assigned to the lowest level possible, salary permitting.

We’ve added a new World Content subject called “Top Tools”. This is a breakdown of players at the ML level with the best abilities in a specific category. Some categories include Best Starting Pitcher, Best Outfield Arm, and Best Power.

6 year minor league free agents can no longer be signed during the re-sign period.

There is a new Pending Private Worlds display on the World Select page that will show all of the private worlds that have openings along with a link to sitemail the commissioner. We hope that this will make filling your private world much easier.

Pitchers can longer have their positions changed from the GMs Office or the Player Settings pages.

Minor League management settings will now carry over from season to season

Added GP to lineups page

Private world commissioner has been added to the World Select page.

The injury icon is now displayed on the FA report page

We are no longer maintaining view settings when you change worlds. If you use the world selection drop down to change worlds all of your view settings will now be reset.




I actually like the last one a lot.

Hmm...  I never noticed how many people had blocked us recently.

Probably GD 'tard shenanigans.
