Hate to bother anyone with this but did want to put it out there and get some advice on what to do.......
I forgot to set my roster before 11 PM eastern last night....therefore I will NOT get my 4 trades next Tuesday. Basically from my mind I feel like throwing in the towel and have requested a refund and have decided to say the hell with this game for this year. Reason is they have the argument ..... if I did not set a roster last night then I am somehow getting an advantage on seeing or riding the price movers......problem with that is NO price moves yet so in my mind the rule should read having your roster set by tonight at 11 as it is the last time to set rosters before the first price moves.
So I ask all of you what should I do as an answer from TSN will not come till after tonight as it will then be two days with no points or a valid roster and I know Paul at least will be nice to have and a nice price mover. How do I salvage this horrible start. I do not mind missing the points from last night but again tonight then no trades for two weeks.....LOL They can have the teams back then right? |

Interesting.
You are trading Howard, after 2 monster games, to Paul, who has had 2 games at less than expected totals.

You're just short of Brandon Jennings and Andray Blatche...
Assuming that you already have Frye and Gallinari
then it looks like:

Does anybody know how long it takes TSP to update player eligibility positions? I have CDR and can only keep him if he gains forward eligibility in the next 4 days. I though I saw somewhere a player must start at a position 5 times to gain eligibility at that position. After tonight, CDR will have started 5 games at Forward. I was wondering if anyone knew in past years how long it takes until they actually add the new position to a player.

from Rotoworld:
Chris Douglas-Roberts-G- Nets Nov. 5 - 3:31 pm et
Chris Douglas-Roberts is not traveling with the Nets to Philadelphia for Friday's game against the 76ers as he struggles with flu-like symptoms.
No word yet on whether or not he will play, but per league policy, he will need to remain quarantined for 24 hours, so consider him doubtful. If he can't go, Terrence Williams will likely start again in his place.
Source: Newark Star-Ledger
Now what?? Sell?? Hope he plays on the 6th or 7th then hold through the three days off?

Martin-G- Kings Nov. 5 - 6:08 pm et
An MRI revealed today that Kevin Martin has a displaced hairline fracture in his (non-shooting) left wrist.
The team says treatment options are "being evaluated." It is unclear at this point how many games Martin will miss.

We were expecting CDR's value to increase Thursday because of SF (small forward). Instead his value plummeted because of a different SF entirely!

Can you still undo trades? I've been trying to figure it out all morning and I can't, did they change the rules?

THERE IS NO UNDO BUTTON.
From the FAQ: There is no longer a need to "undo" a trade. Since we are only comparing your current roster to your last frozen roster, you simply need to put the original player back on your team and you will get your trade back. For example, if you have James on your 11pm frozen roster from the night before, then you trade him for Bryant, then you trade back to James, you will get your trade back. Each player will freeze at their scheduled gametime. You can trade back to an original player at any time and still get your trade back, as long as the players involved in the trade have not yet frozen, nor has the next roster freeze passed.
That means that if you make a trade, all you have to do to "undo" the trade is buy back the original player, and the trade comes back with him. Or: You can buy yet another new player, and still only one trade will be counted. Using the example above, you might sell James, buy Bryant, sell Bryant, buy Anthony, sell Anthony, buy Moon, sell Moon, and buy Marion, all in two minutes, for one forward position, and only one trade will be deducted because the system is only seeing that you went from James to Marion.

compare him to gallinari, who will lose money and he plays a similar amount of games, hibbert looks legit and a good cheap player to lock in. I dont see better options to go too right now for 2.5 or less, but i may have to check again.

that is the only thing i never understood about the ultimate game and is probably the reason I suck so bad at it, is people are always selling early in my opinion and giving up games in trades...i suck at ultimate, i dont know why i play it, my best wwr is like 350...

I know it's not the "right" day to move him, but Tuesday is a light trading day and I'm not sure I'll miss the 11 points he'll put up. I don't have that much cash in reserve, I'll have to see if i can make the move later. He does play GSW though, so, easy points.

63> The key to the whole selling early thing is to do it without giving up games. The earlier into a player and the earlier out of him will always be most profitable. Let me give an example. You have Paul right now who is fairly highly owned. You move him to James with almost no owners on 11/10. That move won't gain a game until 11/18 but I guarantee it will be a profitable one. Points will most likely be equal. Usually there are even better examples but that was one that jumped out at me and I may not even do it. Later on in the year this happens less and less as managers try to find smooth transitions from stud to stud. Sometime a cheapie game will be sacrificed early in the year in Ultimate for the sake of dollars. Unlike basic it is a full season game so the earlier you get a high rv the more it will matter. I hope this helps a little.

That move may be more realistic than I thought. Chris Paul left Monday's game after spraining his ankle toward the end of the first half.CP3 limped into the locker room and it's unclear whether he'll return in the second half. Stay tuned. Nov. 9 - 11:41 pm et

Two assists and a steal so far in the 2nd half for CP3. Looks OK to me (for now).

OK...
Blatch to Hibbert, and someone (I have a lot of crappy options- steph curry, pecherov, brewer, mello, gasol) to jennings as soon as I get my trades. Hate to use 2 trades on Wed, but need to shake things up.
Blatche, mello, gasol, and minn all have weak schedules coming up, and I need to hold some of those guys.
Im thinking I will hold Gasol, Thompson, and Curry since I like having them on my team (I think curry will start to play better soon)
