Pretty much. And if he did pick something I wanted, I didn’t commit to anything and still have a plan b. There are other reasons too which I might share later.

I think the main reason is actually that I refused to trade with Shira b/c of the win in the first draft. So mean breaking me down and making me go against my own word! 😉

That’s a valid reason. Plenty of real life sports GMs won’t work with another GM because they do not like each other. They will make exceptions, because they have an entire team to look after and sometimes you need to put aside differences and make a deal.

@Shiratori is like the Yankees here, and @Studs the Red Sox

And he said if I won again he’d never trade with me ever. Guess I have to see what the rest of the team looks like.

Actually I said “trade embargo” by which I meant I’d actively advocate that no one trades with you in addition to not trading with you myself 😛

You can make it easy on yourself and trade me your gorgotha!

I can ensure any team with a Gorgotha is not going to win this time. There are 15 others aware of what it can do. 😛

But then no trades would have happened. What fun would that be?

#Official Announcement: Warnings

* * *

No action is being taken at the time, this is just an announcement that **_takes effect immediately from this point on_**.

Everyone has been instructed to inform me if you will not be making a pick in a timely fashion. Failure to do so from **_now on_** will result in punishment at my own discretion and can include being skipped in the Draft Order (you will make your pick when you return, out of order).
