What is up with MFN-67?

It seems that every team is only half filled or worse? It looks like they ALL went Free Agency!

I tried to re-sign mine over the weekend, giving what they asked for but none re-signed............any ideas?

I didn't have any issues resigning the players I wanted to.

However, I only waited to the last minute with a few of them.

Well, looking at your roster, you only have 33 player on your roster and 16 contracts offered.

If I go to the "Free Agents" page there is a boatload of players, and if I click on the listed players, it even has the "teams" name on their player cards.

I've tried to re-sign my guys twice, last friday and again on Saturday so they would be signed today...........it didn't work. Most or all of the teams are missing players,,...at least the ones I looked at.

You don't see that on yours?

The 20 players that I didn't resign were all intentional. Most were just scrubs I picked up to fill out the roster, or maybe players that I thought I could resign cheaper in FA.

Since this is the beginning of year 3 in this league, all the standard 2 year deals from the allocation draft have run out. My guess is that a lot of owners didn't resign their players. It's quite a chore in year 2, which is why I start early in the season doing a few players at time.

Well, half of my defense is GONE! and a FEW from my offense. If it don't fix itself by tomorrow, I'll just abandon the **** thing.

It's not going to fix itself, sending out contracts to renew your players before their deals expire is not something new or difficult. It can be rather tedious the 2nd season after an allocation draft but if you didn't renew them that's on you.

This, my friends, is the beginning of the "superteam" whining/complaining threads.

No one signs their FAs ..
5 or 6 teams pick up the good players ..
league is now dominated by the 5 or 6 teams ..
"Superteam" complaints start ..
those teams begin trading those players for future picks ..
now its those teams fault for having draft picks ..
more complaining about "Superteams"..
those teams now start bundling those picks for better draft picks ..
more complaining about how "Superteams" are getting even stronger.

Look, I've complained about them and now I know why I've switched my views about them. Just hunker down build your roster of young players, draft well, their players will retire ..

Seperate thought .. how days does an allocation draft last? If you're willing to set aside days to go through an allocation draft, whats 30 minutes of going through contract renewals in a few months .. to make sure your team sticks together.

you have popups that tell you when you have free agents ..
you have a renegotiation wizard to even help ..

or just quit and abandon .. because you simply don't care and let the newbie owner deal with the problem you created .. that button is just a click away ..

sorry, rant over.

As I said before, I sent contract renewals (with their asking price) out last Friday, expecting them to be signed by Saturday. Obviously, there's a problem here.

And parsh.......I have not made any trades at all, I have ALL of my Draft Picks and 'free agency' is just beginning. There's nothing that I did differently to make this do what it is doing. I'm in 7 or 8 different Leagues, I KNOW HOW IT WORKS!! Not looking for some SMART-*** answer.
Since you have nothing helpful to add, and since you are not in this League, **** the f--- out please!!

Thanks for nothing ah!

Name calling is all he's got, this is pretty much how Kenchi always acts when he's proven wrong.
