I know in the manual it states that one cannot be fired as GM in an online league BUT, provided the league is willing and the commissioner of the league is willing to administer this manually when it happens, does anyone know if the GM-being-fired component can exist in an online environment?

Will the "you've been fired" message (in-season or end of season) still pop up for the manager (or be seen by the commissioner) in-game? At that point it could just be a matter of the commish making that happen manually before the next sim.

The "fired" GM can then "apply" (again manually via commish) for any existing open position or stay on the sidelines until year end to see if anything opens up.

I'm just interested in a way to possibly "up the stakes" in an online league and cause some GM movement between teams (provided of course all are willing to live with this stipulation) without having to manually create some "house rules" to replicate this. If the same in-game mechanism can be used...cool!
