trade talks with other GMs

December 16, 2001 at 11:06PM View BBCode

It would be very useful to be able to send text messages to other GMs to discuss trades. You could also use this feature to gloat after defeating them in a series :D

How About An Automatic E-mail?

December 17, 2001 at 03:08AM View BBCode

Maybe an e-mail that is generated automatically whenever a trade is proposed, something like "St. Louis has proposed a trade of ________ for ________. Go to Trade Desk to accept or decline"...

You are viewing the raw post code; this allows you to copy a message with BBCode formatting intact.
well what i'd really like to be able to do is say something like, "I'll give you any of my minor league out fielders for pitcher X."

A league message board would be a big help. I'd use this to post general trade offers, for example:

I've got a solid 3B who I'm willing to part with for a leftie out of the pen.

The ability to send an e-mail to individual owners would be nice as well. That way you could negotiate trades back and forth instead of posting all or nothing offers. I think this is possible even without revealing the other owner's e-mail address.

those are both good solutions.

I was thinking about this

What do you think about these message boards? I was going to look into a way to integrate the two sets of usernames, and then create a private board for each league. What do you think? I need to see if this is feasable obviously, but it might be a quick way to add a ton of functionality.

I haven't tested it yet, but the U2U feature acts like a private message, which would be cool too.

A separate message topic (or board) for each league is a good idea and probably a pretty quick solution allowing for trade discussions, etc. A way to communicate with individual owners privately would be helpful, but I don't think it's necessary right away -- a league-wide message board would suffice.

The league message boards would be a great addition. Private message would also be nice, if they are feasible.

Private messages is very important. I need to sneak behind other GM's backs in order to improve! ;)
