Trade Deadline

[RaptorsGM]

Why not just cancel the orignal trade and run the sim?

Not all that fair to give them so much time to work something out that they should have had worked out a long time ago.

This might be an option but PistonsGM would have to accept it as well (and he announced he'd be gone from shortly BEFORE the deadline at 5pm).

So I think waiting until midnight is a very FAIR chance to get the original plan done.

[RaptorsGM]

Well, right now where the Kings live it's late at night, and in 4 hours it will still be the middle of the night, so it's very unlikely that the Kings come back on.

So really, we're gonna have to delay the entire sim a day, which, IMO makes it fairly unrealistic. IMO a sim should try to copy the business which is the NBA (without the lockout, of course )

And in the NBA, games don't get delayed because of trade talks that are now 2.5 hours past the deadline.

But Bods, I understand the position you are in, and I have no problem living with whatever decision you make.

[KingsGM-old]

shit man, sorry guys, i 'm back!

[NetsGM]

Nobody also plays 10 games in 1 day, either raptorsgm.

and deals are sometimes allowed to go past the deadline as well.

it doesn't affect anyone else.  the games will still be played.  it won't kill you to wait until tomorrow.

and it would be unfair to the pistons to cancel the trade.

[RaptorsGM]

You're right, and like I said, I have no problem living with your decision.

But I believe that the Kings have said let's move on.

[KingsGM-old]

no problem. i'm fucked, i'm doomed, i'm cursed etc.

let's move on with the sim

[RaptorsGM]

I think we're still waiting. Did you PM Nets with what the trade was?

[KingsGM-old]

yes

[MagicGM]

I really think that the simulation of day 90-100 has already been processed. however there might have been a problem with the server so the page was not updated.

I don't really see any point on dabods moving those trade deadline deals into the other board if the trade hasn't been processed.

Also to the fact that dabods, earlier on this thread, posted that he is already processing the details needed for the next sim.

However, I maybe wrong but I doubt it.

I would guess that you are wrong. He processed those trades LONG before he said that the sim would be delayed.

Unfortunatly, I do not think days 90-100 have been simmed.

Day 90 was simmed last thursday

I meant to sim last night around 12:30.  But, when you get old and you have to wake up for work at 6 am, sometimes you fall asleep

So will the sim happen now or later in the evening ?
And will trades / lineup changes / position changes / cuts / signings be allowed until then ???


and finally "the find of the day":
