Sorry for tagging everyone, but I just wanted to clarify this.

If a GM is not active on CapFriendly for 7 days or longer, if the BOG decides that it is necessary, they may receive a warning. If the GM does not respond to that warning, then they may be replaced.

If a GM has not been active on CapFriendly because nobody has asked them about their players on their page or because they use another form of communication for most negotiations, they likely will not receive a warning, though we recommend that GMs are active at least every 7 days.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>flamesfan419</b></div><div>Well, I've had an absolutely craptastic day, so why not pile on and stick my nose in where it doesn't belong....again.

Can anyone explain exactly how the BOG "ran out of time" to vote on potential trade revisions or restructure??
There's 7 members, and wasn't the whole point of getting rid of certain members only to elect new members, and more, up to 7 so this kind of thing wouldn't happen?
A situation such as this opens the BOG up to far more scrutiny the next time you step in and determine a trade needs to be revised or cancelled.
How can you find the time to rule on future trades when you've proven you couldn't find the time to vote on past trades?

We're told there are 7 of you but we never seem to see any postings from certain members...on anything. Where are they and why aren't all of you more active in keeping an eye on things.
I am well aware I can be a pain in the a$$ to more than a few people in this game, but someone has to hold the ruling powers accountable.
As AK can attest, and I guess Dylan &amp; Bolts I've had to point out quite a few things that are/were "bending the rules" of late. ALL of those are things that someone on the BOG should've discovered and dealt with before having it brought to your attention.

I know AK puts a lot of time and effort into keeping the scoring up to date and giving us updates from time to time, and for that I'm sure we are all appreciative.
Bolts seems to be the one to look after waivers and subsequent waiver claims which is great, but again, it's something that works on a specific 48 hour window.
What the other 5 members do.....does anyone even know what facets of the game they are overseeing?

Like I said, crappy day and this may just be adding to it, but I also think it's all things that the other 24GM's in the game have a right to know and understand what their elected leaders are doing to keep the game on track.</div></div>

Sorry that you never received a reply on this.

The trade in question was a very complicated situation. Precedent was set with the Landeskog trade earlier this season allowing teams to use multiple one-sided trades to make up one trade in order to make retention work. Because of this the BOG had a number of discussions about it and a few people weren't able to make up their minds. We lost track of time and then realized that we had been discussing it for over 7 days meaning that we had run out of time. The trade did not have the required amount of votes to be reversed at that time.

In terms of what the BOG is currently working on, with the season underway, there really isn't a ton of stuff that needs to be done. We're dealing with trades, waivers and the standings. We're also looking for issues with the game and opportunities we see to improve it with new rules such as the one that I just posted.

It is true that we have missed certain instances where GMs have not been compliant with certain rules. This is partly because we expect GMs to understand the rules and be able to follow them, though some clearly don't. I'm really not sure about everyone else, but personally I don't have the time to look over ever single detail of every single roster often enough to find everything, this is why we really appreciate when GMs such as yourself notice these things and point them out to us.

Thanks

Starting in December, teams may sign one free agent who is either currently under NHL contract or is coming of an NHL contract from the previous season in addition to their two monthly waiver claims. This signing will be made on a first come first serve basis, so no other teams will get a chance to sign the player. Beyond the first monthly signing like this, teams will need to use a waiver claim and go through the normal waivers process.
