Hey guys.<br /><br />Chain --<br />Players can be traded from IDDL to IDL.&nbsp; This happened in the case of the Spread Eagles and Pat Attack; Nautilus traded Kyte for RussianDumbass -- Kyte is now on Pat Attack and RussianDumbass is now an Eagle.&nbsp; Same goes for Goatface &amp; Jwarrier.<br /><br />You also might have seen that IDDL is holding sign-ups, so that players who either declined their initial IDL invite or who weren&#039;t invited in the first place can sign up to play in the IDDL.&nbsp; There&#039;s protection against &quot;crashing the IDL&quot; in that only players initially invited can be drafted up into IDL, and all sign-ups are subject to commissioner approval -- in this case Goatface.<br /><br />At this point, there&#039;s no official policy on players that [b]drop[/b] from IDL... but my inclination is to say that they&#039;re dismissed from both leagues, not placed in IDDL.&nbsp; We did [b]dismiss[/b] Killingblair from the Spread Eagles, and we allowed the new captain Nautilus to choose a player without using a trade.&nbsp; Because we don&#039;t dismiss players lightly, we feel this isn&#039;t easily abusable.&nbsp; The board might put this in the rules, but there&#039;s a couple of things ahead of it that we&#039;re discussing.<br /><br />Dosu, ExWizard: the IDL administration assigns new captains to IDDL teams, there&#039;s no &quot;chain of command&quot; so to speak.&nbsp; I&#039;ll leave it up to Goatface to announce new captains, the details on how we select new captains are in the rules (http://www.intldoomleague.org/rules/?league=IDDL).&nbsp; We do appreciate your willingness to lead though!<br /><br />[quote]<br />Teams will get to pick new players in the order that they lost their player:<br />Bang Broncos, Triple Jets, Pat Attack<br /><br />Players are being allowed to sign up for the IDDL, but not the IDL, also pending approval. So you may want to wait to get your new player, or take one for now and trade again later.<br />[/quote]<br /><br />Note, however, that games must still be played on time, and the chances of being short a player are higher with a shallow roster.<br /><br />Additionally, because all games have either been played or not played (no trades occurred between a team that&#039;s played their game and team that hasn&#039;t), all trades are immediate and final.&nbsp; The trade wait period is designed to keep players from playing 2 games a week, and this applies to inter-league trades as well.<br /><br />Please let us know if there&#039;s any more questions.&nbsp; Last Thursday was a big day for roster changes and I have to look everything up every time I explain it, so I understand it&#039;s all very confusing.&nbsp; Thanks!<br /><br />EDIT: I updated the IDL [url=http://forums.intldoomleague.org/index.php?topic=48.0]Free Agents - Trade History - Demo Infractions[/url] thread, I apologize that it wasn&#039;t updated last night.
