We review trades to protect new GMs by giving them a chance to reverse the deal or to at least get a little better return. If you look at the revisions, I don't think you can make the case that we forced a trade to become unbalanced in the other direction. It's the nature of the game that newer, less-experienced GMs end up getting preyed upon by those of us waiting around for someone to rip off. Then the guy gets ripped off 3x in a row and gets fired or quits and the next guy has no motivation to play because the team is in the gutter.

We don't review the trades to ridicule GMs, or to prevent teams from getting better.

There have been approximately 300 trades in the game. This BOG has voted on 19 trades and revised 7...

I don't speak for the whole BOG, but personally, if you all don't want a BOG to review trades and keep the game running, then I'll gladly step down and we can just let the whole thing go into mob rule. I don't know why people think that the BOG is some power hungry-group of people that wants to dictate all the moves of the game. We're just here to try to keep some structure to things. TBH I reluctantly took this position thinking that it might help out the game, but I don't take anything positive from being on the BOG, it's a fruitless job.

I wanted to get this in early so I don't forget.

I will be away over a short period of time during Christmas and will likely not be checking in to CF at all during the dates Dec 20 thru 27.
So if any deals are to be made they need to get done prior to Dec 19.

Again, this is simply a short Christmas vacation. I'm NOT leaving the game.

We enjoyed having you, and thanks for playing! squinting with tongue out

I'm kidding around - that's no problem, tbh I think everyone should take a few weeks off here around Christmas and start fresh in the new year.

The NHL roster freeze takes effect on Dec 19. We could/should follow suit and implement a mandatory holiday break around here too.

Also, could there be a stacked post in this thread that shows the BOG members? Because the BOG has been changing and it's kind of hard to keep track of who's in the BOG. Idk if i'm the only one who's having a hard time keeping track or not.

Yes, there's going to be a roster freeze, although we have yet to determine when it starts, when it ends, or how long it'll last. But I can confirm there will.

About the roster freeze, when does it start and end? What times? Can we make trades ON the 23rd and 28th? Or does it have to be before the 23rd and after the 28th?

The roster freeze will be happening on those days. And no, the last possible day to make a trade is December 22nd @ 11:59pm EST, and trades won't be allowed again until December 29th @ 12:00am EST

This break means no trades or other transactions will be permitted during this time, and we would strongly encourage nobody post for these 6 or so days.


Since I was one of the 2 people who posted today, the original message said strongly encourage, not prohibited from posting. Sticking Out Tongue

Hoppy Halidays!

Haven't been around very much lately. Not sure if I want to return if the same people are in charge. I was ****ed over last time I played. not interested in returning to a corrupt game. Thanks for the petition though.
