I have sent an email to Dustoid regarding his drops in Events 1 and 2 - will probably have his event 1 or 2 team taken over by SOM.
I can't monitor all the leagues, so please send me an email when you see players like this. Once they hit that 10 percent threashhold, their team needs to be taken over.
As far as the trade in the 200 Mil Event 1 - this has been addressed. I sent an email to the whole league giving my opinion on this trade.
So again let me know when you see managers with a black hoodie and a scythe who love to kill off all their players.
This owner and I have exchanged some pleasant emails.
BTW - SOM has given me control of the team and I am trying to bolster it. The commish tools let me add money to make the transactions with, but now they have disappeared so I cannot reduce my overall cash below 100 Mil. Checking with SOM on how we can fix that. I will however in the meantime not let the team value go over 100.
Hopefully, this will strengthen the team a bit - and I promise no more transactions !!
Please no commentary or suggestions on what I have done with the team. Just a quick fix.

I would tend to NOT AGREE on that. He has already dropped 19 players on that team. If SOM takes over that team too, they may consider a BAN on playing SOM online. Do you consider 21-33 "really well" ?
Prior to the NEXT EVENT, I will bring this up again in the general league loading email. Newbie mistakes oy ! (Slapping forehead)
I was talking about Astros70. In round 1, he also has blown $10M in salary, but he is 39-21 in round #2. As far as taking over for the other owner, no doubt that was needed. Sorry for the confusion.
Understood. Now we are up to three players whose teams have been taken over. I have decided that none of them will get future event INVITES. And I will address this in the email that goes out for Event 3 loading.
Update ! I have heard from SOM and they will be implementing an automatic max of 10% for drops for newbie AUTO LEAGUES. There will also be a Commish Tournament SWITCH that I can throw that will not allow a team to drop below 10% of original CAP. This is a WELCOME improvement.
However if you are already down to that point, you are probably already affecting the league in a bad way. On a case by case basis, I will still review those teams and players.
As I said, 3 players teams were taken over and they were not given invites to the next event. I think if a player tries to made a drop which would them under 10% - getting a warning notice that they can't MAY give them a HINT.
SOM implemented the OPTION for "SALARY CAP". We will turn this on for all leagues going forward. Everyone except for the newbies know not to go crazy making replacement player DROPS during the season. This makes this "situation" occur with much less frequency. Applauding SOM !
