Curious. commish adv for iafa in 19?

[Marsupilami]

i thought to bring it up and see if others have experienced similiar things.
my samplesize is sadly ridiculous small, only two iafa periods. 1 per league.

Situation. International Free Agents. Hard Cap of $5Million per team

in league one the commish made offers to 3 IAFAs. each 5M and all three accepted his bid (yes all players had other teams bid on them too, and yes with a 5M bid). commish made a mistake because he read the rule wrong and thought it was a 5M per player and as commish the hardcap didnt take. he released two of the players for others to bid on though to correct the mistake.

in league two commish was successful at signing an IAFA for 5M too.

both are different commish`s and i have no reason to believe either did anything wrong (aside from commish ones error that he fixed). but could it be that the game gives some sort of priority to the commish of a league for signing Free Agents?

normally i wouldnt have noticed anything. but the 3for3 in league one made me sit up and notice.

This may be the problem. Your league Commish, if he also manages a team, should have a separate Manager created for his team and sign in as him when doing team activities. He should only sign in as Commish when doing League activities.

When playing as Commish, it's easy to make an unintentional mistake. There's a lot more power as Commish and you sometimes don't realize the breadth of it when doing transactions and things.

If your per team cap is $5M, then he should not have been able to bid and sign 3 players for $5M each. Being in Commish mode probably allowed this to happen.
