Silver votes and inquires

Silver votes on 3 listed by Bryan and requests clarification on 4th.

1. League Dues penalty for late payment: yes.
2. Extend MiLB Draft to 6 rounds: yes.
3. Daily Waivers: yes.
4. Bid Cash: Several clarification questions- Can you bid Zero dollars? Ties go to lowest in standings (as of when)? In other words with so little FAAB cash do I have to top the nomination by at least a buck or merely tie it if I'm lower in the standings? Without ties there will be a huge advantage in being the first to nominate a player with a cash bid. Ditto the lack of a zero dollar bid. Does the cash bidding apply to all rounds of claims?


1.) League Dues. Would go into effect in 2015.

- $65 if paid before February 14th, $75 after that date. Will be paid out league prize money.

2.) Extend MiLB Draft to 5 Rounds. Would go into effect in 2015.

- Keep MiLB Rosters at max of 20. MiLB rosters must be locked before draft. If you have 5 open spots then you may make 5 selections. 3 open spots then only 3 selections. Only Rounds 1-3 may be traded.

3.) Daily Waivers

- All Free Agents would go on waivers daily. Would go in effect in 2014

4.) Bid Cash based on order of finish. Would go into effect in 2015.

1st-4th - $15
5th-8th - $18
9th-12th - $21
13th-16th - $25
17th-20th - $30

We wernt voting yet. Just a clarifying that's what everyone wanted to be voted on and I wasn't missing anything before voting was opened. Each amendment will have its on individual post and remain open for 7 days once up tomorrow.

No, you may not bid zero. Bidding structure would remain same. As in how we bid. The change would simply aim to give an advantage to more money to spend or trade for non playoff teams and less money to spend or trade for playoff teams.

So the $$ is for bidding on Farm System players during the season?

Yes sir

How about a drop FanTrax vote? CBS please?

We've already purchased a lifetime membership at Fantrax. It has it's cons. But is solid overall.

Have to agree that fantrax is rough. CBS much better. But that's pretty much a dead issue at this point. I wonder whomhas investment in fantrax in this league bc there was no other reason for that change.

I would even chip in a disproportionate amount of the fee towards a better platform.

I know it is hard, but try to get passed the idea of the lifetime membership. I own a lifetime membership to 24 hours fitness... Haven't used it in a decade. Marriages get annulled every day... It is an option. Maybe a vote next year is all I am proposing.

And I have no issue with that. But it needs to be relative criticism and not just "fantrax sucks". It has it's pro' sand con's but so does CBS.
