***OFFICIAL*** FFA MLB Draft (5 Viewers)

I have to bench my first position player due to fatigue, damnit!! Thankfully, its against D,A and L. Maybe I should just bench my entire starting lineup just for grins.

Anyone else having to actually manage playing time yet??
I have used both catchers fairly evenly. Bubbles gets tired quick. Cuyler drops to the high 90's often and I give him rest (OF depth is a strength of mine - what I would do to trade an OF for a closer right now) and even Schmidt dipped to 98% one day.
 
Larry in all seriousness...How can you use Smoltz's 3rd best RP season and then argue that you can use Quantrill's 3rd best season overall. It makes absolutely No Sense, and that's being kind.

That's the reason everyone is so pissed.

Please change it
Hmmm, somehow I missed this. If someone uses one set of rules for one player, and another set of rules for another, that = complete and utter BS and a clear attempt to circumvent rules.Not good.

 
Dude, Quantrill is one of the main reasons LB has had so much success. most of us are losing games late.  Larry hasn't lost late at all.  Quantrill has been unhittible. 
I think your mis-reading what we're saying. I agree that the Quantrill thing is a bit sketchy to say the least, it's just that Quantrill isn't the sole reason he's doing so well. He's certainly part of the reason, but not the whole reason. I know what your saying though, my bullpen has cost me at least 7 games.

If we do this again, we need to rethink how we do RP. It's too important to these games to be as half-assed as we did it. Maybe we need just one closer and then fill in the rest of your roster, but it does need to be reworked.
How am I missing the point? I'm not saying Quantrill's won every game for him, but when you have a guy coming out of the bullpen that's virtually unhittable...damn, that helps! Like I said, my bullpen has cost me 6-8 games. How many games would Larry have lost if he had, say....ECK COMING OUT OF THE BULLPEN?!!?? So I should be punished because I drafted a hall-of-fame closer in Dennis Eckersly and I have to watch Paul ####### Quantrill shut teams down when he comes in? I would KILL to have Quantrill at the season LB is playing him at. This entire thing stinks. Thanks for ruining our league LB. What a man you are.

 
Quantrill doesn't even crack the top 10 of my all-time bullpen:1. Don Aase2. Charlie Kerfeld3. Calvin Schraldi4. Paul Assemacher5. Jose Oquendo (the season where he played every position)6. Steve Howe7. Jeff Innis8. Esteban Yan9. Charlie Liebrandt10. Wade Boggs (Knuckler)

 
Who'd have guessed that the guy who claims to be the most religious, ends up cheating in such a way as to submarine (literally) months of effort on all our parts. Shame on you Larry. You've broken my spirit and may you be dealt with swiftly and with great vengeance.

YOU DIRTY GAY WHORE!

:excited:

Looks like the gasoline just showed up for the fire. Don't get us locked UCONN. :D

 
AT THE VERY LEAST we should remove Larry from the FFA vote, the OOTP sims, and all other venues. That's the price for both cheating and narcing.

what happened other than the wrong season thing? who'd he report?

Nipsey I agree, that Quantrill's greatness has saved him close to 5 games. It's just that it still doesn't explain all his success.
 
1. Quantrill isn't illegal
BULLSH##

then show me a post that says we have to use the third best RP season if the third best season is an RP season...if you can't find that post, it is not illegal...
How come you're the only one that couldn't figure it out? Capella already posted the note that that talked about how relievers were to be handled. I guess we should have written a manifesto regarding specific rule language, had it notarized and then send each owner a copy......yours in crayon.Give it a break. NO ONE else has spoken up about this not being clear to them.
I posted the stuff that was posted in the rules thread...it said that we COULD do that, it never once said we had to...

quit whining 'cuz you can't beat my team fairly...

Please respond to the fact that you use Smoltz's 3rd best RP season, but Quantrill's 3rd best P season.TIA

Another problem comes in to play with players who were both SP and RP.

Dennis Eckersley's lights out 1990 season, complete with 0.61 ERA and 73/4 K/BB ratio, is salaried much lower than a bunch of mediocre starting pitching seasons. Clearly that was his best career season and one that shouldn't be allowed in our game.
this is the big problem..say for some reason that ruth's 3rd-best season was one where he was a SP..obviously you'd want him as an OF (I'm sure this isn't the case, just saying)..that presents a problem.

wish we had thought of this beforehand.

maybe we can work something out where players who served dual-roles in their career, and the sim doesn't allow for it, we could have it be their 3rd-best year at that position the draftor requests? say for eck, his 3rd-best year as a RP, and for Babe, his 3rd-best year as an OF?

make sense?
I think this makes sense only with the pitching roles. So SP/RP, OF/SP, etc.Otherwise, people already made, or didn't make, draft choices based on the positional (C/1B/2B/SS/3B/OF) eligbility of players, and it wouldn't be fair to change it at this point.
well yeah, I agree..
Larry, I don't know what you're reading in this, but as Spartans pointed out, the rule interpretation was made specifically to prevent people from stealing Eck's best season, or Quantrill's best season, if it was salaried lower than starting seasons. The solution presented is to use 3rd-best RP seasons for relievers--which you have circumvented, and therefore must fix. If anyone else, like Oso, was fond to have intentionally or unintentionally cheated, they would fix their team as well.
This is what I quoted to you, Larry. The relevant part is the response to Spartans' concern that someone would try to pull the s**t that you pulled here, getting a guy's best year as a reliever by stacking other years in front of it. SPECIFICALLY what you did is what is outlawed here. If your obvious lack of intelligence doesn't allow you to comprehend that fact, you could at least shut the f**k up about us not posting the rule as it was stated.
and it was never stated that we had to do it...but I'm done arguing about it... I'll change it if there is a consencus...

 
Larry in all seriousness...How can you use Smoltz's 3rd best RP season and then argue that you can use Quantrill's 3rd best season overall.  It makes absolutely No Sense, and that's being kind.

That's the reason everyone is so pissed.

it makes sense, because as it was stated to me when I asked in this thread, we could choose to use thier 3rd best reliever season if we wanted to...no one said we had to...

Exactly. How can he even keep saying it?
because an understood rule that wasn't known by all isn't a rule...no one ever stated that you HAD to use the third best reliever season, therefore we didn't have to do it...
Yes, it was clearly stated that if you wanted to use a guy who was both a SP and a RP as a RP, which is what you have done, that you would use his 3rd year as a RP, which you have not done. It's in the post I quoted above.
no its not...of course there isn't a real decision being made in the post quoted in teh rules thread since the rules were never clearly stated...

well, at least not that rule...

Agree with Funkley and Spock's takes about larry_boy's use of Quantrill.That said, I also agree with Sammy -- there's no durned way that Quantrill is responsible for LB's team's record to date ... and what goes up must come down. How much difference could Quantrill really be making? I know he's statistically good so far, but still.
Dude, Quantrill is one of the main reasons LB has had so much success. most of us are losing games late. Larry hasn't lost late at all. Quantrill has been unhittible. If you really want to continue using the "aw-shucks, I'm not doing anything wrong" defense Larry, I'm fine with it. You're not doing another league with us anyway and most of us recognize the rule dodging you've done in this one. Your result in this league will be tainted. Enjoy winning cheaply.

Now, personally Larry....I DID NOT post porn anywhere in this thread. If you want to post lies about me, you're a bigger **** than I though. I guess it's par for the course, given your history of cheating. If you want to report my posts for calling you a "gay, cheating whore" or a "gay, dirty whore", I guess that's fine too. Should I report the posts you call me somebody's "#####"?

Bottom line is, you're really not a good guy Larry. You sell out your "friends" and do whatever it takes to beat them. You lost a lot of respect last night, from MANY people (if that was possible).
woah there, Nipsey... for one I said I thought it was you... I didn't say it was you...someone did post legit porn in here...

second, I didn't sell out anyone, and I didn't cheat... The only people cheating are the ones deciding to change the rules now without everyone's approval....

half the people in the league haven't said anything about this yet, and most of the people who have said things had previously vocalized that they plain don't like me a long time ago...

but, yeah, those opinions aren't tainted...
Oh!!!! You said you think it was me posting porn? Ahhhh! My fault. I was unaware that you thought.Larry, you are cheating. If I could use Eck's best reliever season, I'd have 6-8 more wins. That's a fact. The rule was put in place to AVOID what you're doing now. You're using a relief pitcher's BEST season as a reliever. YOU ARE CHEATING.

It's really no matter. Last time you do one of these with us and whatever result you end up with here will not be recognized. I'm assuming if you don't make the change, your team will be locked from you accessing it. And to be honest, even if you DO make the change, you should be tossed from this thread, tossed from the league and tossed from the planet.
but I didn't use Quantrill's best reliever season, I used his third best season, huge difference...what was Eck's third best season? That is what you could have gotten, too...

you had the choice between Eck's third season and his third reliever season (and, technically, his third best starter season)...

you chose his reliever season..

I choose Quantrill's third best overall season..

 
Larry in all seriousness...How can you use Smoltz's 3rd best RP season and then argue that you can use Quantrill's 3rd best season overall.  It makes absolutely No Sense, and that's being kind.

:wall: :confused:
 
The thing that really hurts me most is that a really cool, completely sane guy, would end up tanking the whole thing because of vanity and the need to win at any cost. I think most of us would agree that LB was the epitome of what we thought a man was (intellegent, handsome, witty, empathetic to the views of others, quick on his feet, solid). Well, that's all gone for me now and I'm going to have to live with that. This is a sad day in casa Nipsey and one that I'll never forget.

To the man we once knew as LarryBoy_44...a toast:

"When your #### drop, may you find all the things your heart desires. Here, here."

My fatigue has only gone down after playing Dummy teams, must be all the at bats players accumulate against them in blowouts, other than that 100% across the board. Next time around I'm going to bump my replacement inning down to seven when I play the dummy teams.

So I should be punished because I drafted a hall-of-fame closer in Dennis Eckersly and I have to watch Paul ####### Quantrill shut teams down when he comes in? I would KILL to have Quantrill at the season LB is playing him at. This entire thing stinks. Thanks for ruining our league LB. What a man you are.
Nipsey I agree, that Quantrill's greatness has saved him close to 5 games. It's just that it still doesn't explain all his success.
Five wins in 30 starts is A LOT of wins. That's the difference between winning the division and coming in third.

Except he's 8 games ahead of everyone in games played against "real teams". so while Quantrill may be important, it would only drop him back to even with the top teams, which I think we can all agree he shouldn't be.

Larry just walk away for crying out loud. The back and fourth isn't doing you any good.
 
Guys, lets pull back a bit on the Larry lambastation. It would be a shame to have this thread locked or deleted.We all know who is in the right and who is in the wrong. Bad as bending rules are, to purposely use different rules for different players on your own team is damn close to cheating.Again, that pales in comparison to talking about reporting what is said in here.That said, lets move on and keep the personal attacks to a minumum. Obviously, we will not have this issue for our next draft as we will have to be more careful about who takes place, especially if $$ are involved. Even just 12 bucks.

 
Larry in all seriousness...How can you use Smoltz's 3rd best RP season and then argue that you can use Quantrill's 3rd best season overall.  It makes absolutely No Sense, and that's being kind.

That's the reason everyone is so pissed. 

Please change it
Hmmm, somehow I missed this. If someone uses one set of rules for one player, and another set of rules for another, that = complete and utter BS and a clear attempt to circumvent rules.Not good.
why? The rules were that we could choose to use thier third best reliever season...I chose to with Smoltz, I chose not to with Quantrill...

Dude, Quantrill is one of the main reasons LB has had so much success. most of us are losing games late.  Larry hasn't lost late at all.  Quantrill has been unhittible. 
I think your mis-reading what we're saying. I agree that the Quantrill thing is a bit sketchy to say the least, it's just that Quantrill isn't the sole reason he's doing so well. He's certainly part of the reason, but not the whole reason. I know what your saying though, my bullpen has cost me at least 7 games.

If we do this again, we need to rethink how we do RP. It's too important to these games to be as half-assed as we did it. Maybe we need just one closer and then fill in the rest of your roster, but it does need to be reworked.
How am I missing the point? I'm not saying Quantrill's won every game for him, but when you have a guy coming out of the bullpen that's virtually unhittable...damn, that helps! Like I said, my bullpen has cost me 6-8 games. How many games would Larry have lost if he had, say....ECK COMING OUT OF THE BULLPEN?!!?? So I should be punished because I drafted a hall-of-fame closer in Dennis Eckersly and I have to watch Paul ####### Quantrill shut teams down when he comes in? I would KILL to have Quantrill at the season LB is playing him at. This entire thing stinks. Thanks for ruining our league LB. What a man you are.
quit blaming the crappy third season rule on me, I said we should have changed it and that is why a lot of players suck that should be better...I didn't ruin the league, a lack of real rules ruined the league (if it is even ruined at all)

 
Another. Let's just play w/o him next time and be done with it.
Agree with Funkley and Spock's takes about larry_boy's use of Quantrill.That said, I also agree with Sammy -- there's no durned way that Quantrill is responsible for LB's team's record to date ... and what goes up must come down. How much difference could Quantrill really be making? I know he's statistically good so far, but still.
Dude, Quantrill is one of the main reasons LB has had so much success. most of us are losing games late. Larry hasn't lost late at all. Quantrill has been unhittible. If you really want to continue using the "aw-shucks, I'm not doing anything wrong" defense Larry, I'm fine with it. You're not doing another league with us anyway and most of us recognize the rule dodging you've done in this one. Your result in this league will be tainted. Enjoy winning cheaply.

Now, personally Larry....I DID NOT post porn anywhere in this thread. If you want to post lies about me, you're a bigger **** than I though. I guess it's par for the course, given your history of cheating. If you want to report my posts for calling you a "gay, cheating whore" or a "gay, dirty whore", I guess that's fine too. Should I report the posts you call me somebody's "#####"?

Bottom line is, you're really not a good guy Larry. You sell out your "friends" and do whatever it takes to beat them. You lost a lot of respect last night, from MANY people (if that was possible).
woah there, Nipsey... for one I said I thought it was you... I didn't say it was you...someone did post legit porn in here...

second, I didn't sell out anyone, and I didn't cheat... The only people cheating are the ones deciding to change the rules now without everyone's approval....

half the people in the league haven't said anything about this yet, and most of the people who have said things had previously vocalized that they plain don't like me a long time ago...

but, yeah, those opinions aren't tainted...
Oh!!!! You said you think it was me posting porn? Ahhhh! My fault. I was unaware that you thought.Larry, you are cheating. If I could use Eck's best reliever season, I'd have 6-8 more wins. That's a fact. The rule was put in place to AVOID what you're doing now. You're using a relief pitcher's BEST season as a reliever. YOU ARE CHEATING.

It's really no matter. Last time you do one of these with us and whatever result you end up with here will not be recognized. I'm assuming if you don't make the change, your team will be locked from you accessing it. And to be honest, even if you DO make the change, you should be tossed from this thread, tossed from the league and tossed from the planet.
but I didn't use Quantrill's best reliever season, I used his third best season, huge difference...what was Eck's third best season? That is what you could have gotten, too...

you had the choice between Eck's third season and his third reliever season (and, technically, his third best starter season)...

you chose his reliever season..

I choose Quantrill's third best overall season..
JUST ####### STOP!!!!YOU DID USE QUANTRILL'S BEST SEASON AS A RELIEVER!!!!! Just because it happens to be his third best season overall, does NOT make it a legal player. What part of that do you not understand?

 
let's cool it in here...got a few posts "reported" from this thread tonight.

don't want to see this thread get nuked.

please play nice.
let me guess who's reporting posts.so now he's a cheater and a whiner? :loco:
If larry_boy is the death of this thread, he will never be forgiven.
why are you assuming I'm doing it?
I know things larry. Remember how I coldly called Harrier out for being 'Winner'.

Well, guess what..

It happened Larry.
never said I didn't...just pointing out that others assuming I did doesn't mean I did...
but you did..outstanding.
yes, I report stuff that shouldn't be said...like when some people actually did post porn in here, I reported it...

just 'cuz its a long thread doesn't mean we should have free reign to break the rules around here...
I hope this is the last non-antagonistic thread we let Larry into.
OMFG you've got to be kidding me.
 
On a totally unrelated matter, have you guys ever read Larry's posts at ChristianGuitar.com?

It includes such gems as:

"So God is gonna force us into heaven against our will?...But, seriously, what would God do if He says enter in and the person goes "No, I hate you, sent me to hell"??"

 
1. Quantrill isn't illegal
BULLSH##

then show me a post that says we have to use the third best RP season if the third best season is an RP season...if you can't find that post, it is not illegal...
How come you're the only one that couldn't figure it out? Capella already posted the note that that talked about how relievers were to be handled. I guess we should have written a manifesto regarding specific rule language, had it notarized and then send each owner a copy......yours in crayon.Give it a break. NO ONE else has spoken up about this not being clear to them.
I posted the stuff that was posted in the rules thread...it said that we COULD do that, it never once said we had to...

quit whining 'cuz you can't beat my team fairly...
Fairly? You cheated, not me.

Nipsey I agree, that Quantrill's greatness has saved him close to 5 games. It's just that it still doesn't explain all his success.
Five wins in 30 starts is A LOT of wins. That's the difference between winning the division and coming in third.
Except he's 8 games ahead of everyone in games played against "real teams". so while Quantrill may be important, it would only drop him back to even with the top teams, which I think we can all agree he shouldn't be.
and that is the entire point of this whole thing...You all don't want me to win and you can't admit that I was 100% in the rules to do so, so you found a way to claim I cheated...

 
Larry in all seriousness...How can you use Smoltz's 3rd best RP season and then argue that you can use Quantrill's 3rd best season overall.  It makes absolutely No Sense, and that's being kind.

Hmmm, somehow I missed this. If someone uses one set of rules for one player, and another set of rules for another, that = complete and utter BS and a clear attempt to circumvent rules.Not good.
Larry that's just the way everyone else, but you did it. We either took his 3rd best SP season, or his 3rd best RP season. No one else purposely co-mingled the two and went with the 3rd best P season. why? The rules were that we could choose to use thier third best reliever season...

I chose to with Smoltz, I chose not to with Quantrill...
 
Larry, do you know how much porn is on the internet? You really thought it was your Christian duty to rat on one of 20 or so guys who post in a thread the rest of the FFA could care less about? What, you think some 8 year old kid was going to access this site and have his religious mind scarred for life cuz he saw some boobies?

You better f'ing change Quantrill then or your gonna have trouble.
I'm taking this as a personal threat...and if it doesn't stop, I will report this kind of stuff... FYI
Can you read? I said that to Norwood.

The part where someone said that you must use the third best relief season of the player if he's a reliever...No one at ANY POINT said that...

the rule was there, as I understood it, for guys like Eck or Smoltz who started more than 3 seasons...

I don't really care what Joe would say about it. Do you miss your Hall Monitor days or something?
 
Guys, lets pull back a bit on the Larry lambastation. It would be a shame to have this thread locked or deleted.

We all know who is in the right and who is in the wrong. Bad as bending rules are, to purposely use different rules for different players on your own team is damn close to cheating.

Again, that pales in comparison to talking about reporting what is said in here.

That said, lets move on and keep the personal attacks to a minumum. Obviously, we will not have this issue for our next draft as we will have to be more careful about who takes place, especially if $$ are involved. Even just 12 bucks.
Respectfully, Koya...get off your high horse. I was reported AND accused of posting porn here (not true!) by someone who's blantanty cheating and refuses to acknowledge that fact. You handle things the way you want to. I'll handle them my way. If it gets me in hot water, so be it. I can live with the consequences.

I didn't accuse you, I said I thought it was you but wasn't sure...dude, no biggie if you didn't do it...

would it make you feel better if I go back and edit the posts that I said that in?
