Tford Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 It's 11 am (MST) and I turn on MFL Gameday as usual and update the starters. I'm watching the games into the afternoon (about 4 pm MST) and I see that our commish has left Joseph Addai on his bench in favor of K Jones and A Peterson. I scoff at the choice and move on. By this time, Addai has already amassed 100 rec yds and a score. Now after the DAL-PHI game (About 9 pm MST), I see that Addai has magically inserted himself into the starting lineup. So I check the starting lineups and a read this under his lineup. Submitted Sun Nov 4 8:44:48 p.m. MT 2007 Odd time to submit a lineup especially when they lock after the first kickoff. My question is; does the lineup submission time change when the commish forces a player in after kickoff? It is possible that my Gameday app screwed up and did not update his lineup change properly I guess. I'd rather not stir the pot unless I am 100% sure that someone happened that shouldn't as this is the first time I've noticed anything.

Puddy Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Definitely sounds suspect. Go to your league home page and look at the transactions. Select "all" transactions for "all" teams. I believe that will show you when lineups were submitted with a time stamp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keggerz Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 (edited) Definitely sounds suspect. Go to your league home page and look at the transactions. Select "all" transactions for "all" teams. I believe that will show you when lineups were submitted with a time stamp. i think that only shows for the team you are logged in as but not 100% sure but i do know you can have prefs set to email you your opponents lineup and any changes...but that wont do him any good this week Edited November 5, 2007 by keggerz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puddy Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Waiver requests, lineup submissions and trade proposals are only displayed to the franchise owner(s) directly involved, and the league commissioner. Other franchise owners cannot see those records. Crap. It doesn't work unless you are the commish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tford Posted November 5, 2007 Author Share Posted November 5, 2007 The only time stamp I have to go off of right now is the Reports>>Franchise>>Starting Lineups Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Time to contact the Commish and check with him first before making a major stink. Definitely sounds like something funny's going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puddy Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 The only time stamp I have to go off of right now is the Reports>>Franchise>>Starting Lineups Well there you go. That is legit. If he changed a player after the fact then the time will show there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursa Majoris Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 With Peterson's monster score I'm surprised he needed to bother with cheating but it sure does look like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABearWithFurniture Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 The commish can edit the lineups of any team, at any time in MFL...even if the player has already played or is currently playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wolf Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Time to contact the Commish and check with him first before making a major stink. Definitely sounds like something funny's going on. +1 No doubt, this seems fishy and is in need of questioning. He may not have been near a computer to make the actual submission before kickoff but alerted his opponent of his intent to play Addai in the interim. Then he added Addai to the lineup at the time you saw stamped above. If he did not at least alert his opponent before kickoff, this is a BS move and he needs to go.

Gunther Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Agreed that it does sound suspect and you should talk to the Commish for reasons stated above. He may have also changed his lineup at that time that impacted players for Monday Night's game? Maybe not, but it is a possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txpkrbkr Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Don't know what site you use, but in ours (Fanball) there is a Lineup Log and a Change Log that are both viewable by all members of the league. They will show if and when lineups changed, each week, for each team, and whether the change was made by a Commissioner. There's got to be a paper trail... Get your proof and confront the Commish offline. Give him an opportunity to save face before you blow him off the map in front of everyone else!

MikesVikes Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 The Gameday Lineup doesn't change until you update the starters. Any lineup changes after you do that don't show up until the next time you update the starters. You mentioned that the lineups are supposed to be locked at the first kickoff, so it looks like bs to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tford Posted November 5, 2007 Author Share Posted November 5, 2007 Got it somewhat cleared up; Commish said that he was submitting week 10 lineup and accidentally resubmitted week 9 lineup. Although it sounds like BS, I believe him as many of his past week's lineups were submitted the Sunday before. However, this brought up the issue for him trolling around the league site under Commish tag. And that one is being adressed, thanks for the help guys.
