Yes we know I didn't send in bids because ducky never announced when he was simming thank you for being quite the genius.

We must all be geniuses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Either that or we've participated in sim leagues before.
The fucking new Rockets GM who's been here for a week made bids

Even if you sent in bids Marty you weren't going to get Whitesdale back is the point.

and how the hell do you know that? It's quit clear that offering more money for a free agent doesn't mean he'll re-sign...
and yes I was going to offer Whitesdie the max but only a 3 year deal

I agree that everything was simmed to quickly..
I agree that tiger and marty should have gotten their bids in..
I'm still confused about this whole "Tmacz did some bids for some teams" thing...and why/how ducky allowed it...
However, looking forward it would be a bad precedent to re-sim anything. Because in the future, if people miss out on big-name FA because of forgetting to send bids, it'll be like "hey, Marty and Tiger got a re-sim, why can't I now?"

My bids were probably not even entered and I lost Whiteside albeit I probably would not have offered him a max contract. and how the hell do you know that? It's quit clear that offering more money for a free agent doesn't mean he'll re-sign... and yes I was going to offer Whitesdie the max but only a 3 year deal LOL Classic backpedal

it's not about forgetting to send bids though...
Listen aar and krupinski are taking my argument way out of hand.
I am not mad at the fact that I lost Whiteside, shit happens and aar offered him a horrendous contract to someone who is a one-dimensional player. I am mad at the fact that it has now been 3 consecutive times I've been autoed.
First being in the playoffs being down only 2-1 to CC, as has happened every season I've been here a courtesy text is usually sent out to a person to get their dc in. I never got such a text and it's not like I was down 3-0. I have no doubt in my mind I could have taken the series to 7 games at the very least had I been able to adjust my DC.
Then re-signings were literally up for a day and then closed.
Then Free Agency was simmed out of nowhere. It was 5:00 PM EST and the draft was still going, pretty sure it was still in the first round as well. I had no idea that in less than 24 hours the draft AND free agency would be done with out a single warning and again I got no courtesy text or IM to get bids in.

aar is bitter over the fact that I drafted a player earlier than he was projected and he's still mad over that any voice he has in this situation is out of spite and shouldn't be listened to.

If you don't care that I got Whiteside, make an offer for Bosh and move on...
None of your other FAs left, so your only beef is that people aren't catering to your ever need with texts or IMs.
You've been in sim leagues before, you're active, you check the boards, you know that free agency can happen after a draft if there are enough bids in. Just because you didn't do your due diligence doesn't mean that the league should reset everything just to appease your moral expectations and principles.
I admit that a lot of this was done in haste, but it's still no excuse to not check re-signings or make free agency bids when more than 70% of the league did and then get pissed off when you're the odd man out.
Sorry, you're being a baby here. This league doesn't bend over backwards for you.
At least for Tiger, I can understand, he never bitches about anything and in fact, he has barely bitched about this situation at all!

No, I'm mad that you complain about everything and that it could potentially cost me a player that I bid on and won in free agency. If you had made bids and ib4 or tmacz ended up losing someone who you landed in free agency, you'd be doing exactly what I'm doing and if you think otherwise, you need to take a long look at yourself in the mirror.
