also I am completing my masters, which takes time.

There are some that will have 5 trades arranged ahead of time and with the time for approval being 24 hours back then I think the activity died. I am a slow player...basically I look through the rosters see what people are doing organize an offer....send counter offers etc...I like that aspect or style of game. I was never a big trader...making 10 trades in the 3 months we had it going was about my max. For the most part I think that style of game will not work anymore with the instant approval style that has been currently taking place.

How about once a player is traded, they cannot be traded again until a full 24hrs? The teams involved can still make trades during that period, but none involving already traded players can be involved.

I feel like it is not uncommon to have a pair of deals lined up where a player is traded for and then flipped as a part of a larger package in a follow up deal. Again, a rule like this has the potential to slow things down, which may turn people off.

I understand that, I just thought I would add a bit more realism to these games. Also, I'd like to proper adjustments made to GMAT so that vets and old heads, lol, would be more willing to return.
It could add the much needed strategy these games have lacked for years.

I like that idea mate. The goal is to have a lot of offers coming in but only fair deals going through. And I would like to do the rule that back to back picks are not allowed (pick swaps allowed though).
How do you like it Mascot? Are you in?
I hope we get at least 20 people. We could do expansion teams then which could be very cool. Should expansion teams get #4 and #5 pick in draft or higher? I think the Bobcats got #4 a couple of years ago.
