The switch to Fantrax

[Mike]

Or someone can run two teams? Steve seems to have fun doing it.

I think Pominville belongs to Anaheim...most recent deal involving him was in April and Cliff has the trade listed on his forum. He needs to get on that if it's true.

you dont mind giving shots but you can't seem to take them there michael.

you tend to get your nose all out of joint when someone disagrees with you, but yet you toss out comments like it's nothing. I have no issues with comments being tossed my way as i'll fight back, but it seems if someone argues back u go off the deep end.

[Mike]

If you say so Steven

[The BBKL Insider]

it's not if i say so, you have no issues tossing out rude comments, but the second someone fights back or goes against something you've said you tend to get way to angry and go on the attack.

but meh, i'm not going to fight about this, this league is suppose to be for fun, from here on out i will make comments on trades and my own trades. This, like every summer has turned into "we are all bored so lets fight". I'm too old to fight in what's suppose to be a fun league.

Ladies - chill.


First -> it's nice to not be involved in this.

Second -> accusing the most consistently " good for bbkl" guy here of something less than honest shouldn't be met with soft response, that's how it spreads if not addressed up front.

Third -> It's not an easy situation. Unowned assets effect more than the team who has a prior claim, notably the effort we have towards asset tracking of which no one has put more work in, planning for our waiver draft, and our rules around roster submission. If they are never enforced and we have a coveient ownership policy we'll end up with many many more messy situations. I can tell you it's frustrating for me and I didn't even make the spreadsheets, but for over 1 year later to have guys still missing is getting excessive. But that doesn't mean the fault was Matt's, or that the BUF 'franchise' should be punished for it. There's a solution to be found and throwing personal insults into it doesn't help (accusing or joking).


IMO -> we start by finding when the 'error' was made. If Chuckers missed the asset from Phion's spreadsheet, and Matt also had access to that sheet, than I believe he should be available, fwiw the July 2nd claim on fantrax does not support ownership. However if Matt didn't have Phion's spreadsheet, and had no way of knowing he 'owned' him, suddenly we're in the messy spot. We trace back where he went missing, who should have known about ownership, and we can reach a repeatable and fair decision.

Meh, if everyone loved each other and the league was in perfect harmony it would grow boring. I enjoy the trash talk and smart ass comments and it's one of the reason why even though Shiv's trade offers were annoying he will be missed on BBKL.

[CAM]

How do I compare player stats on this thing?

players

switch status/team to all

add to compare list (little icon thinger)

switch status/team to compare list (from all)

... duh

Yea, so im gonna claim dumb here too. I may be blocked and not see this "compare list" icon thinger. Where on page is it?

[CAM]

Is it possible that Fantrax would allow us to keep track of salary? Add a custom field?

[Fraser]

^That would be awesome.

[kyuss]

I've now added the salaries (the cap hits actually). They should show up in a new column on your team page.

However:

The initial update is done approximately a month or so before the season begins (this varies depending on the sport), as before then too many players are still without contracts. After that time, salaries/cap-hits will be updated every few days or so, as more players get signed to contracts. If you want a player's salary/cap-hit to be updated quicker after he is signed, feel free to contact our Customer Support staff, with the player, his salary, and the link(s) to the source(s) you used (the more the better).

* After any player's salary/cap-hit is updated in our database, in order for the change to appear in your league, your Commissioner must regenerate salaries.

And actually, a player like Folin who signed back on April 1st is still without a contract on Fantrax (maybe they thought it was a joke lol)


Note:
Fantrax cap hits (when up to date) correspond to Capgeek AAV column, the one we have been using since they changed their Cap hits to the clear-of-bonuses figures
