New to the game... I just saw this pop up on my league screen, and wondered what its use is? Does it take the place of waiver wire? Does it open up the ability to draft a player from the data base? Info please? Thanks!

For if an owner in the league drafted an ineligible player. Rather than having to send a ticket in to admin to have them replace the player on the back end, the commissioner can now make the replacement.

One hypothetical problem is a devious commish secretly swapping out his tired 88 Milacki for a fresh 87 McDowell. How about an automessage appearing in the league message forum stating whenever a change has been made?

Not that there are any devious commishes here. Purely hypothetical!

I mean I think most of us would like to envision a world where we operate in good faith, especially because it is in Theme Leagues only. We have a few way to track this on the backend. The hope is to eventually add the logging in the leagues pages as well.

Having an auto message in the league message board whenever a change is made would be great for transparency! Don't think anyone is assuming bad intent, but as a commissioner I would want this to exist for sure. Lower priority though

Could always simply make it so the commish can only replace players on other teams, and cannot alter their own without WiS assistance.
