Yes! 1st place!

[dream_017]

Post here anything that you would like to bring up for the league to discuss/vote on.

[mattb47]

We need to find a way for my team to win more.

[dream_017]

We would like to amend the Free Agency/Waiver rule:

With the number of Thursday Night games being played, we would like some discussion(before bringing to a vote) on a change to the rule.

All players are on Waivers from the beginning of the first game of the week through 5 PM Eastern the next Wednesday
...
any player(s) won will not be awarded until the following Tuesday

As the rule states once the Thursday games hit, all players go to waivers, so basically we can not make any pick-upsstarting Thursday night. Free Agency is only open for a little over 24 hours during those weeks.

I would like to propose:
All players are on Waivers from 1:00 Eastern Sunday through 5 PM Eastern the next Wednesday (except for players involved in early games - Thursday Night/Saturday Night).
...
Any player(s) won who are involved in an early game(Thurs or Sat Night) or after 1:00 Sunday, will not be awarded until the following Tuesday.

No problems there. As long as the players in Thursday, Friday and Saturday games go on waivers at the start of their games (which is the case in dream's proposal), this rule change makes a lot of sense.

Also, similar to matt's objection, you guys need to find a way for my team to win less.

Sorry, one of the few times I couldn't help myself.

Also agreed, but since your title defense came at the expense of my get-all-the-way-there-and-then-choke team, I'll now give you "the finger"

WAIVERS

All players are on waivers from the beginning of the first game of the week through 5 P.M. Eastern the next Wednesday. Additionally, any dropped player is on waivers for 48 Hours from the time he was dropped.

To claim a player on waivers PM a commissioner, notifying him that you intend to place a claim, and then post a thread in the league forum with the contract that you intend to offer that player.
Highest bidder wins the player. A Commissioner will add the player to the winning bidder’s roster.

Bidding ends 24 Hours after the last bid placed. Should this 24 Hour "Window" extend past kickoff of the first game of a given week any player(s) won will not be awarded until the following Tuesday.

EXAMPLE: A Bid is placed on a Player at 4:00 P.M. Saturday. If no other bids are placed that player will not be placed on the "winning" team until Tuesday Morning, since the 24 Hour "Window" would extend past the beginning of that week's games.

WAIVERS

All players are on waivers from 1 P.M. Eastern Sunday through 5 P.M. Eastern the next Wednesday. Any player that is involved in an early game (Thursday-Saturday) will also be on waivers. Additionally, any dropped player is on waivers for 48 Hours from the time he was dropped.

To claim a player on waivers post a thread in the league forum with the contract that you intend to offer that player.
Highest bidder wins the player. A Commissioner will add the player to the winning bidder’s roster.

Bidding ends 24 Hours after the last bid placed. Should this 24 Hour "Window" extend past kickoff of the game involving the player or 1 P.M. eastern Sunday, whichever is earlier, any player(s) won will not be awarded until the following Tuesday.

EXAMPLE: A Bid is placed on a Player at 4:00 P.M. Saturday. If no other bids are placed that player will not be placed on the "winning" team until Tuesday Morning, since the 24 Hour "Window" would extend past the beginning of that week's games.

Please note that 75% must approve(9 votes) for the rule to pass
