I voted for the third option but with a bit of a caveat... Many leagues I've played in lock players that are released for a period of days or until the next week's waivers. I've seen owners add/drop multiple defenses and kickers in these leagues over a short span to lock them all onto waivers.
If you can't leave at least a 20% tip, you can't afford to eat out.

I am against all the lopsided offers no matter who makes them. They tend to ruin leagues so both parties need to be a little responsible unless you don't care about the league...then go for it.

My thoughts are if you want what's good for the league your team can still come 1st but up to a point. If winning is more important than the game you are already losing at FF
DLF HOF League 16 team PPR
QB: Brees, Bradford, Lock(3.07)

WR: Jeffery,Cooper, Josh Gordon, Dede Westbrook, Cam Meredith, Brice Butler, Chester Rogers, Lockett, Switzer, Malone, Cain (IR)
TE: Gronk, Swaim, Maxx Williams

That is a very good point - however obviously it is tough for everyone to agree where that line in the sand is - where your responsibilities to yourself and your team to be as competitive as possible balance against what is considered the right thing to do and beneficial to all.

I agree that that’s a dick move, but there are at least two ways to prevent it.

1. MFL has a setting that forces owners to keep recently added players for at least 24 hours. Not ideal, but probably the easiest (laziest?) way to automatically prevent it without commish intervention.

2. Specifically address it in the constitution as prohibited behavior. That’s what we did in our league. It’s never been an issue (probably because we don’t even play with kickers or D/STs, haha) but if it ever happened, I’d just go in and manually unlock the players.
Both are 12-team 1QB PPR dynasties

My inclination is to agree with Shames ...Was going to say the same and ask the question... Have you ever seen ArryIT & Turcorox in the same room ??? :think:

Haven't been bombarded with so many options since visiting the the Chicken Ranch brothel back in the '80s...and I feel just as dirty for participating in this pandering exercise as I did then. :cry: :oops:

Off of the menu I'd select the combo of #1 & #5(with egg roll please) :drool:

The fact that your default option is to suggest Turcorox is suggestive that you yourself might be Turcoroxs alter ego. 8-) :lol:

Classic self projection tactics . Especially en vogue in the Trumpian era ...you sir are suspect until you provide visible evidence that you are indeed not Turcorox in disguise :nono:

I’d say it’s only a dick move if an offer is in your inbox and news comes out that a player you’re giving away is now out for the season and then you accept it. But shame on you and the other player for letting it sit that long.

Very interesting how split the results are - I actually thought there would be more spread.

But basically what it seems to come down to is that about half the DLF community (that voted) feels that the line should be drawn at option A.

That would suggest then that the odds are by doing A you're likely to bother half of your fellow league mates in any given league - what if any consequences that could have would obviously be league & owner specific.

This could have been a poll of two questions.

That being said, if you want to play in the big leagues then you should be fine with all the options above, if you're not then stick to free or low entry leagues.

Yes it could have - but the questions are all similar in principle, it is just the degree that changes.
