FGM Check-in and Season End Activities
« on: August 14, 2023, 11:52:54 AM »
First of all, congratulations go out to all of you for a successful season.  We have many good GMs who have been actively competing in the league.  That said there are a couple of teams that need replacement GMs.  Before I start trying to recruit, I want to have a check-in to see if all GMs are committed for the offseason and 2024.  Please post on this thread to confirm you are planning on continuing.  At this time, I am in need for replacements in :NYY: & :SF:.  If anyone here knows of anyone who would be interested in a team in our league, please have them reach out to me or post on the Official Sign-up thread.  I have done some research and most of our GMs are either GMs that have been with the league for a long time or have come over from elsewhere on the site.  With some exceptions, recruiting from boards is less effective.

I wish to thank Paul S & dbreer for their excellent work in keeping transactions moving all season.  This league could not operate without the help of volunteers to assist with these functions.  dbreer has asked to step down from this role now that the season has ended as he has taken on other commitments with leagues at the site.  Thank you both again so much!  If there is anyone who would like to assist, it would be much appreciated.  It has been a great help to be able to focus on the other aspects of the league knowing that the transactions are in good hands.

Some end of season reminders:
8/14/2023 - Free Agency Ends at 12 PM EST (no more opening of bids)
8/14/2023 - Last week of the Regular Season

9/24/2023 - 10/1/2023 - League wide Review of Rosters

10/2/2023 (12:01A ET)- Off-season begins.
  • Unsigned Players Become FA (Includes (P-2023) Players)
  • Cap Hits Raised From 75/50/25 Percent to 90/60/30 Percent
  • MLB contract extensions count toward 2024 and beyond
  • Re-Sign Values for Contract Extensions Updated
  • League Sheet (ProFSL Rosters) rolled over to 2024
  • Deadline for players on 60 Day IL to be returned to active roster or be released

Please note the deadline has changed from previous seasons for the offseason items.  The deadline for this season is the final day of the MLB season rather than a week after as in the past.  Please ensure all of your roster decisions have been made regarding extensions, etc. by Oct 1. 

Finally, I am posting a rule change proposition.  A few years ago, the rules committee was dropped in favor of allowing all to vote on rules change proposals.  However, I do not see anywhere that this was a decision made by the league or the rules committee and with the difficulty in getting 15 people to vote on rules changes last season for simple things like following the MLB schedule, I would like to propose to reinstitute the Rules Committee.  I will be posting this proposal today.  Also, a reminder that anyone can make rules proposals.  If there are changes that anyone would like to propose, this would be a good time.

Thank you again and good luck to all of those in the playoffs!

  • BayAreaBallers: my only qualms is what is the method to pay. i dont wanan havta make another money account like league safe
    Yesterday at 08:04:39 PM
  • Daddy: It uses the LIVE scoring engine. Otherwise its a completely different baseball option then LIVE, FGM, or Armchair.
    Yesterday at 08:05:26 PM
  • Daddy: I think its thru fantrax but its next season so he has time to sort that out.
    Yesterday at 08:06:04 PM

    Yesterday at 08:07:46 PM
  • Daddy: Variety is what all of our leagues should be, no two alike. So we as a site can cater to all types. MLB LIVE lost a HOF level GM (Paul) because he doesn't do H2H leagues.
    Yesterday at 08:08:02 PM
  • TheGOAT: @Daddy, when will NBA Live be in full swing?
    Yesterday at 08:09:19 PM
  • Daddy: Its there as an option. $10 entry for a chance to win $100 or double your money. Worst case you're out $10 but no contracts etc.
    Yesterday at 08:09:37 PM
  • Daddy: @TheGoat starting two leagues next month. NBA could be ready by the upcoming season.
    Yesterday at 08:10:17 PM
  • Daddy: @TheGoat I'm waiting on the creation of league boards per @Anthony. Once the boards are up the building of the league begins.
    Yesterday at 08:11:17 PM
  • Daddy: NHL & NCAA football will both be insane for a minute.

  • BayAreaBallers: which makes it interesting
    Yesterday at 08:14:16 PM
  • Daddy: NBA LIVE scoring, concept, rules, its all ready to go. The concept was completed last month.
    Yesterday at 08:14:18 PM
  • Daddy: @BAB exactly. Fresh start each year. @Alpha5 is on to something. And the LIVE scoring engine is legit.
    Yesterday at 08:15:13 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: i just need to know how money is handled
    Yesterday at 08:17:55 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: before deciding
    Yesterday at 08:18:01 PM
  • Daddy: That's fair. He is building his own brand "Powerhouse" is redraft each sport $10 entry & 20 teams. Football, Baseball, Basketball, and lastly hockey.
    Yesterday at 08:23:34 PM
  • Daddy: Each sport powered by the LIVE scoring engine.

    Today at 09:18:29 AM
  • Mt_Crushmore: Excited to see this news!!! Goff agreed to a four-year, $212 million contract extension with the Lions on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
    Today at 09:23:51 AM

    Today at 04:53:59 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: I get like that too Eric. My goal every offseason is to do at least 1 trade with every gm. Why not? Its fun
    Today at 04:55:00 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: Some guys just dont trade for whatever reason. But the guys who dont arent championship contenders.
    Today at 04:55:47 PM
  • Daddy: They trade, about as often as real teams do. For people that love year round trading, being in one league, one sport, its going to be difficult.
    Today at 05:38:13 PM
  • Jwalkerjr88: Not everyone trades. But agreed, for one sport folk like myself. It requires patience
    Today at 06:10:32 PM
  • Alpha5: NFL LIVE is the most difficult league for me and it's not even close
    Today at 07:22:33 PM
  • Daddy: Cant just trade because its fun. There needs to be a purpose behind trading. Get guys you believe in or need to keep improving.
    Today at 08:44:03 PM
  • Daddy: NFL LIVE has the toughest GMs & football is the toughest fantasy sport for DYNASTY. Redraft will always be King of football.
    Today at 08:45:00 PM
  • Daddy: Baseball, hockey, basketball guys struggle with NFL LIVE because its just so damn fast (football careers, roster turnover etc.)
