Constant Real-Time and no trades offered after deadline

Zarberg · 05-26-2013, 10:55 PM

Two things I'd like to see: Constant Simulation and no trades offered after the trade deadline.

The first one might be a bit of a pipe dream - I'd like to see a constant real-time simulation mode for online leagues. I.E. you turn on Real-Time, set it at whatever speed you want, and the game constantly updates league files and web pages and such. To me this seems like having your cake and eating it too - if you're a micromanager, you can constantly fiddle with your lineups and such. If you like to sit back and be hands-off, you can check the game every few days and only make your changes then.

The other thing I'd like to see is for an option to turn off computer trading, but only between August 1st and the end of the playoffs. There's nothing that annoys me more than trade offers after the trade deadline!

IIRC You can still trade after the deadline, but both players need to clear waivers.

You can go into League setup and disable trading on the 1st of Aug then re-enable when you want.

you can still trade within your league without waiver issues.... Like within the American league. However you have to go through Waviers if you trading a player to say the National League If I am in the American league. At least that's the real world way.

Not sure what you mean. In current baseball you can trade a player to any other team in MLB without waivers up to and including July 31. After that date all trades no matter what league require waivers.
