Ok, there must be something I'm not doing right or something I don't understand clearly. I had waiver requests in for 3 players -- I did not get any of those requested. Of those 3 -- Couch got one and Prime got another both of which were after me on the waiver list. What am I missing?

Mama,

Please review your transaction record - and make sure you had everything entered correctly. (The last time I sent a request to the site host it was determined that waiver requests that did not process were because an invalid roster would have resulted).

If you don't see an error, and would like me to review the transactions you submitted, send me your team password (to my email under franchise info), you can change it back again after I look.

Sorry for the confusion - please let me know what you find out.

Hello Kathy,

wow - I reveived your waiver transaction requests, and it looks to me like you entered everything right.  I can't see how the trade would have impacted your waiver requests.  I'll send this issue onto the site host... very sorry for the short shrift you ended up with.  I'll let you know what they say.

Thanks for taking a look Kurt ... it's just a little frustrating since I was barely hanging on to a playoff spot.

Hello Kathy,

The answer why your waiver request did not go through: Your waiver requests did not process because it would have resulted in an invalid roster.  Looking at it now, what happened is you made a trade involving a 2 for 1 deal, where you received two players, which put your roster at 17. Waivers were processed automatically just a short time later, you did not drop Bobby Engram till the next day - if you had dropped him before waivers were processed, your waivers would have gone through. 

I allow trades to process, even if they will result in invalid rosters, specifically for these two for 1 situations (giving owners a small window to drop a player soon after the trade is consumated). However, waivers cannot go through if there is an invalid roster - in this case, technically, you already had an invalid roster.

Sorry for the inconvenience to you. 

Kurt
