Waiver trades

Ramzavail · 08-11-2008, 09:20 AM

I am playing in NABA - the Skydog/Ron project.

I don't think waiver trades are working properly.

Angel Gomez was placed on waivers sometime in early Sept, and I attempted to claim him, I have one of the worst records in the league.

I didn't get a message in a few days, so I checked my mail and noticed that he was then traded in a waiver trade. I have a few screenshots if necessary. But I know I put in a waiver claim (not sure how I can prove that, although, I did get a message of the trade in the "manager's" news, is that the game notifying me of this personally b/c I had a stake in it? ala when somebody signs a free agent that I had bid on? I don't know).

Presumably he was traded to a team with a better record than you?

Were you using version 9.1.6? I'm not familiar with NABA - is this an online league?

If you have screenshots, they are always a big help. If you could post them, please do so.

yes 9.1.6. Yes they had a better record, I was one of the worst in the league.

I have no proof that I actually put in a claim for him, I don't know if there is a report within the game that generates rejected or accepted claims etc. However, my thought process was - since it showed up in my "Manager's news" box, and since I put in a claim for him, the game was giving me knowledge of this player b/c I had a stake in him. ala free agency. But just a theory. I usually sim watching the waiver list to look for players who can help my poor squad. I knew of this player since I traded for him and traded him away. And I definitely would have wanted him back.

I think that zekester in the other thread has it right. Unless you were watching closely and can say for certain that they didn't try to sneak the player through again, I don't think that we have evidence of a bug.

Depending upon your news settings, you'll probably get regular news reports of any substantial trades happening around the league.

fair enough, but I'd be on the lookout for it.

Okay. Let us know if you see anything for certain, yourself.
