Start date, league on page

[ASchatz]

Two questions:

1) A league that I visited but did not join (Full Draft League) is on my front page, every day. Can I get rid of it?

2) I want to start a new league (MAL2) which will be equalized, but will allow players to release free agents free of charge before the season starts. Therefore, I wish to have the season begin in November 2000, not April 2001 (or in November 2001). Is this possible?

Hi, Aaron -

You are the first person to mention the persistent league name thing -- but I'm sure that just means there are a lot of vaguely irritated users out there who haven't spoken up yet!

I'll put that on the bug list.

If you really can't stand it, you could join then immediately quit the league. Of course, that would add one to your quit rating... So if you are patient, we'll try to get that fixed.


As to the 2nd question, we currently have no way of beginning a season in November. The best way to approximate that is to allow users to release free agents on April 1, and then as Commissioner you refund the money back to their teams.

But, you certainly have an interesting suggestion. And it makes me wonder if we couldn't use that kind of thing to create a free-agent draft, centered around the FA bidding code. It would not be a pure draft, but it could be a neat variation. I'll talk to Clay and see whether that might work. (Although the current 70 player max could make that hard to do...)
