Alright. I'll type out some stuff real quick.
Trades, are obvious. If you and another GM agree to a trade, it will go through, unless it is blatantly unfair, which will be decided by Broncos, and myself. No limits.
Free agents, I'm not sure about yet, me and Broncos still need to talk about it. Post your guys' ideas here as well.
The league will be run off of my X-Box 360 console using the default Madden 08 rosters, with any major moves added into it. We will simulate either one or two games a week, depending on my schedule, and we'll post everything you need to know here.

lol, I don't think you need to give out your number if i were you I would real quickly delete that post. I think what they mean is if you don't check up on your team often. Like if you miss a game or two no big deal but if you like miss alot that's what they are talking about if they decide to get ride of someone. I'm sure it's not going to be that big of a deal though. They just made that rule for extreme cases.

How about you make a list of free agents their important ratings and the money wanted and we can bid on them.

Wow yea that is an important concept, the free agent deal. I think this here would be an effective way to do it.
With what the seahawks said, You list the free agents overall and age. If someone is interested in them they make a bid(the bid will always start out as what the player wants) after a bid is made a time limit is set. Exactly 24 hours after the first bid is made the player will be signed. Within the 24 hour time limit all other teams may place Counter bids for that player.
Now to eliminate people from just waiting to bid until the last possible moment(to keep the cost lower/make it the last person who posts get the player/ or whatever) The person who originally bidding for that player will be able to make the last bid. If he/she still wants that player they may "TRUMP" all other bid offers after that 24 hour mark is passed. Now then it is their choice if the cost is too high for the original bidder to make he may pass it and then whoever has the highest offer gets the player no questions ask, but if the original bidder still wants that player and will accept the cost the original bidder gets that player at a price slightly over what the highest bid is.
Now to eliminate someone just making original bids on everyone there is a limit of 1 original bid at a time. You may not have more then one original bid offer.
This would work pretty well I think. This will be the same process for the regular season and off-season(if we are doing multiple years) It may seem like this process will be a longer process, but i believe it will actually speed things up. (sry if some of this doesn't make sense or look formal, I was making this up as I went, idk it sounds like a fair idea to me)

yeah that is a great idea

Post by ChiefsGM on Aug 3, 2007 21:38:58 GMT -5
Alright, that idea is accepted. So the FA list will be put up, and then we bid, and original player can trump, BUT a certain team can only trump so many times.

How long do you think a season will take.

Post by BroncosGM on Aug 5, 2007 13:50:22 GMT -5
probably about 7-8 weeks, we will be doing about 1-2 sims a week, maybe 3 if people want the sim to go faster.

Post by BrownsGM on Aug 5, 2007 14:28:14 GMT -5
and also i have another good idea for FA how about the day before you do the sim you sign the player to the team with the highest bid

Post by PatriotsGM on Aug 6, 2007 0:56:11 GMT -5
...good question. maybe it is the game of the week would be chosen by the Commis(u/chiefs) by who is doing the best at the time and that is the game you guys do play by play for. Not sure though. It is 100% complete guess.

i'm pretty sure that flex scheduling is where the times of games change
