Championship game and this happens.... (1 Viewer)

Guy has Cutler and Derek Anderson week 16. Cam comes back and Cutler is benched. He tried to bid on Clausen but had no $ and you need $1 for FA transactions (MFL). Commish says he clicked 12 weeks for FA and not 16 so it was failing the transaction but the guy spent all his fa $$$. He was then awarded Clausen even though he was out of FA $$$. What would you do? Honest mistake or should this be an issue?

 
Two questions:

1. had the Commissioner previously allowed teams with no money to acquire players in Weeks 13, 14 and 15?

2. does your league allow First Come, First Served waivers for no charge?

If the answer to 1 is "yes", then the issue should be dropped.

If the answer to 2 is "yes", then I'd say that the guy would have been able to acquire Clausen anyway so I'd probably allow it.

 
What does the 12 vs 16 have to do with anything? I you can't pick up players without a bid at any time, then what possible justification could there be for allow Claussen to be added without any money available?

This was my thinking too. Pretty easy to trace BB transactions and add up $$ spent.
 
If he's out of money, and you must have money to pick up players, then he should not be allowed to pick up a player. It shouldn't be that hard to rule on this.

 
How was he awarded Claussen? Did the site just bugout in this instance? Or was it misconfigured all along?

 
Commish gave him Claussen manually. Said he thought he had $1 left. This after MFL failed it 4 times because he was out of money. In my dynasty we get an email if the commish goes in and does things.

 
Sounds fishy but either way he should not have been able to pick up any players. Thus he gets a zero for the week at QB. I don't even see where this could be ruled any other way.
