Commissioner Reversed Waiver Pick, Refunded FAAB$ - WHY? (1 Viewer)

In my league someone bid on and won Titus Young. Within an hour, the Commissioner had reversed the pick-up and returned his significant bid.

He proceeded to post the following "explanation" on the Community board:

was an accidental pickup and has been reversed with $$$ returned.
To me, this is quite clearly bull####. I've seen "accidents" occur in multiple leagues thus far, but this is the only case of a reversal.

In this same league, during Week 2 waivers, someone bid $700+ on Garrett Celek (most surely meaning to pick up Brent). This was not reversed or refunded and the team was forced to eat the loss (Note: not my team). I immediately made a post asking for a greater explanation, another league member echoed the same sentiments, and 2 days later still no response.

I was already pretty disgusted at FFPC pocketing the incredible surplus money over the guaranteed amount instead of adding it to the prize pool (as is 1000% standard in any tournament I've ever seen). This will be most definitely be the last time I participate if this is just left to slide.

Can anyone shed some insight? Provide a means to contact someone? Anything???

 
Most of these pickups/drops are handled on a case by case basis. You can get a better explanation from Dave at dave@myffpc.com.

:violin: I will buy an extra team to replace your $350 loss they take.

Why would you be pissed about this? You just want the guy to lose his bid money. Get real.
