bloodninja: yo treebeard isn't actually on ride the icening's team right?
bloodninja: he's just been standing in for them?
Mumbler: I allowed him to join
bloodninja: why?
Mumbler: she lost her #2 and #3 draft picks
bloodninja: her #2 draft pick played last game
bloodninja: i lost my #1 draft pick, can i have iilxaeju?
bloodninja: i thought the reason we have 8 player teams is to account for attrition
Mumbler: one sec
bloodninja: (i don't actually want iilxaeju, but we really did lose Aszera to his new job and i don't think treebeard should be on a team at all)
Mumbler: aszera is gone?
Mumbler: rip
bloodninja: [11:23:22 PM] Aszera: yea but the problem is
[11:23:27 PM] Aszera: is that im basically
[11:23:33 PM] Aszera: starting at 5 pm going to around 10 or 11
[11:23:39 PM] Aszera: sun, mon, wed, fri, sat
bloodninja: so definitely gone for regular season, and very unlikely to play in playoffs too
bloodninja: less likely than someone like grillz, for example
bloodninja: uhh, and grillz actually ahs been playing like every single game for them since god knows how long ago?

Mumbler: honestly
Mumbler: I was aked while I was at work
Mumbler: but
Mumbler: she lost 2 4k players
bloodninja: who are these players?
Mumbler: sprayrate and cyni
bloodninja: cyni's a 5th rounder with 3921
bloodninja: it's pretty unreasonable to go completely against the rulebook and allow a player who could conceivably be a 1st rounder and was already on another team this season to be straight up added to a roster
Mumbler: I see your point
bloodninja: and here's the part of the rules which i think this is violating
bloodninja: Each team is permitted to add a Free Agent if necessary.  Free Agents are players from the draft pool that went undrafted.  If a captain requests a Free Agent, an admin will randomly assign one to you after verifying that the Free Agent still wishes to participate in RD2L.  If no Free Agents are available, no additional players are allowed.
bloodninja: i don't think disbands fall into free agency as defined in the rules, and i think in our division we had a bunch of players left over after the draft that could be FAs if a team needed players
Mumbler: We have allowed it before
Mumbler: I'm going to talk to the other admins
bloodninja: ok thanks, let me know what conclusion you come to
bloodninja: cuz we're playing ride the icening's team this week and i'd like them not to have an unreasonable competitive advantage
