Jkist tried to pull the same thing in season 2, when it was me that suggested he sign up (for fun/competition, of course). Basically he has the disclaimer in place so that if a &quot;lesser&quot; team gets him, he can fall back on it. If someone HE likes or he considers &quot;good&quot; picks him, then it&#039;s all great.<br /><br />I could see things like that, and now Donut&#039;s little &quot;Operation TAIbreaker&quot; (rofl @ name) coming, thus my lack of participation this season (among other things).<br /><br />The mid-season reserve/reinforcement/trading was put in place by me in Season 2, but that was a season where teams GENUINELY were in deep shit as far as members quitting and NEEDING reinforcements. It&#039;s too bad the system wasn&#039;t polished up and now we see the first hints of exploitation.
