Gripes could have been done a day earlier to compensate.

Eh, Royals GM should’ve double checked about the Acuña rating boost or just waited, but that thread is a clusterfuck. Brian chimes in, but ultimately Chris has final say. Hard to actually tell what is getting boosted, and what’s not. I think it’s a weak to leave over this, but I guess Braz was looking for a reason. Oh well. been here a few months too many trades voided man. |

Point of committing time to something like this is to have fun. It’s not easy to have fun in these circumstances

Dont trade before the draft is set..this is dumb. I agree with one caveat…draft time limits don’t start for 36 hours after file is posted. This negotiation took 2 days because there were four interested GMs. There’s always a push to start when the file is posted, limiting anyone shopping the GM with the first pick. You said you wouldnt back out and you did..not sure anything you say no means much to me. |

Bottom line.
Both gms knew the file wasnt finished.
Both gms agreed anyway.
One gm chamged his mind when given the opportunity.

I also feel for braz he has had some bad luck here with voided trades |

Brian flat out said on here and in messages that Acuna would have minimal loyalty. I made the trade because of that. How am I the asshole here?

Doesnt matter. He keeps Acuna. Colorado is open. Gl getting new gms. Who is picking 2nd? |

Either let the trade go through woth KC getting a free upgrade.
Or give Braz something to stay like a free upgrade.
Lock the trade thread while the draft file is being edited.
No more editing of loyalty..

Brian really shouldn't be saying definitives when Chris tends to go solo on some of thesw decisions.
Chris should make the call for the betterment of the league i get it. But Brian you should probably say... maybe or probably not definitely when Chris has shown he tends to go hisnown direction with things.

This is simply impatience
You should have waited to post until the draft started officially

Final ratings should be a committee of guys who have been doing it forever Chris, Brian, Play, Mark, and Spencer would be a large enough pool to come to a 3/2 logical vote on gripes |
