They might allow trading of draft picks but you have to do all the negotiations offline. There is not an option when you propose someone a trade where you can insert your 2013 1st round pick for example. You have to write it in the comments or something like that. It really sucks.joekool wrote:Just to clarify..yahoo DOES allow trading picks and does import them/show them for the following year..etc..just fine. No need to write anything down, create another forum..etc.
Waivers are editable as well too..etc.
That said..the MFL link you posted with your updated skin and such, is far superior to the one I am in.
There are so many things their waiver system does wrong. They only have like 3 or 4 options for their waivers and you cannot customize it. For example you can only have one waiver period a week. We send our waivers to the commissioner by text and he manually adds players, that's where we're at right now as far as waivers, it sucks! I could go on and on about yahoo and their waivers. I have my waiver's setup on MFL EXACTLY how I want it and it does everything for me and even emails everyone a report!
MFL helps out the commissioner more so than anyone else. It saves the commissioner a lot of time.. in time. It takes a while to get everything setup exactly how you want but once it's done, it's done. You got nothing else to worry about. I personally won't commish a league on Yahoo again, I'll play but just won't commish. MFL is what I do, and this is only my first year on it.. 7 years on yahoo and 2 months on MFL and I already realize how much better it is.
You're both right. Both my sig leagues are in yahoo. In the non-salary league, you can trade picks, the only hitch being that the picks have to be even. That's easily fixed by including 18th, 19th, 20th round picks that don't exist in the deal. You also can't trade picks beyond 2013. With Yahoo, I typically just think it's best to have a forum so all of that stuff is in a different place written down somewhere, just in case. You don't NEED to do it, but it's helpful.
However, if you have an auction/salary cap league where you still do a rookie draft, you can't trade picks. For that league I have a separate google spreadsheet where everything is kept.
