I agree about the need for a Commish log.

It is very tough to be in any online league where the Commissioner is also dominating the league. Even if you have no evidence of any wrongdoing, just the idea of the commissioner winning over everybody else inherently creates a bit of wondering. Or when the commissioner has a stud player develop from nowhere.

A log would work to show any edits, and would be even more useful if it showed that a Player Editor had simply been entered. (Of course, a sneaky commissioner could get around this by cloning the league and looking under the hood in the clone).

I understand the need to trust your commissioner but its very hard to imagine that there aren't some leagues out there where a competitive commissioner doesn't at the LEAST take a peek. Perhaps before a big trade?

Speaking of exploits, I've seen some EXTREMELY team friendly contract extensions being handed out that could have only been done with testing - using either the Quick Start cheat to advance in the schedule or at a minimum making an offer to a player, seeing his reaction, and Killing the Task.
