Fantasy Draft IX - Official Chit Chat

This is how hard the fix would have been.

Dez: I made a mistake, Feniks had asked not to be included in the draft. Please go back and reselect.



That simple. That was all it would have taken. That is all the effort that would have been required. The only hard part of that would be ....

"Dez: I made a mistake"

What mistake did I make? I wasn't informed that you didn't want to be selected, until you informed my mid way through Round 5 of the Draft. Someone not telling me information that you told them is not my mistake.

Maybe..... but still that is all the effort it would have taken. People are understanding and things would have gone on. but you couldn't even do that little thing.

It would have taken 1 post in the draft forum and a few emails to fix. Instead, you raged on for hours in emails and in Slack. Instead of a 2-minute fix, you chose to be an ass about it. you were informed as soon as I was informed I had been chosen.

There was no issue with fair or unfair, there was only the issue of fixing something that had been overlooked.

Well since I don't need your permission to post my own words from when you contacted me via PM.

"As I said before, was not relayed to me. I get that you being selected is against your wishes, but as your pick was at the beginning of the draft, asking the captain to change their pick would be unfair to them. If you don't want the achievement or any award/prize associated with the draft you are free to reject and I will honor your position."

You made it abundantly clear that you wanted what was fair to you, that you were being tossed aside. But since I need your permission to share, I can't post the exact message.

If I would have known when seas first made the pick, I would have had him repick. The point at which I became aware made altering the pick an unreasonable request to the captain that selected you and all the other captains within the draft. I don't see what else you want, other than making a demand that I apologize or admit a mistake. I'm not going to give you that satisfaction, as I made a reasonable effort to rectify the situation and you didn't want what I was offering. You wanted only what you wanted, regardless of how it affected the draft and the players within it.

Your abject pettiness to the situation all in the name of calling me out. Good job. You ransacked the draft down over being selected inadvertently against your wishes.

I applaud you.

Again..... did you ask Mel or Argo if anyone had requested to be excluded?

[sXs]

Everything I said was in private email. you are the one that decided to take it public when you ***** and denigrated me in Slack chat. Seems to me all is fair after your little tirade in a public forum. Up until that point, everything I said was in private.

[DezNutz]

Nope sure didn't. Didn't think I needed to.
Since I answered your question answer mine...

Since you had no issue telling me that you got picked, why didn't you message me directly that you didn't want to be picked? Why message Argo when you knew that I was running the draft and then come to me instead of Argo when you were picked?

Or better yet, since there have been so many issues in teh past with the draft and you clearly have a disdain for how it was run and those involved in it, why didn't you post in the forums that you didn't want to be selected for all to see. Then no one would have needed to pass the information along.

Haven't you said in the past that no one goes into SLACK? So who did I denigrate you in front of? Since no one ventures in there.

"INELIGIBLE LIST:
Currently None

For those that do not want to participate in the Draft, ie. do not want to be able to be picked on a team, you have until the day of the Draft to notify the Community Admin Team to place you on the ineligible list."

"Certain players have elected to not participate in the Draft. These players cannot be selected by a Captain. A list of these players will be provided at the start of the draft."

I know the answer, and I am sure everyone else does as well, but I will ask again.....

Did you ask Mel or Argo before the draft started, if anyone had requested to be excluded?

If you did not follow up on this point then it is your responsibility as the one running the draft. Therefore you are the one who made the mistake.
You set the rules and parameters but failed to follow up.

I did as instructed. If you failed to follow up it is on you. That is how things work. When you are in charge, you are responsible for the outcome.

[DezNutz]

So, I was in charge. So why did you message Argo and not me. Argo wasn't in charge.

And I answered your question already. Maybe if you weren't blinded by your anger, you would have seen it.

Simple answer Dez. I didn't message you about it because I don't like you in the least. You are a bully and use your position to raise your own personal profile. The only opinion in game that matters is yours. You have made that abundantly clear over and over again.

Also, I didn't want to have a 3 hour conversation with you about it. Everything I say, seems to irk you in some way and you can never simply say "ok".

I told Argo because she was the one that informed me that the draft had been announced. I do not normally follow forums anymore simply because you are there and you are a mod.. I don't normally go into Slack anymore because you are there and are the mod. I told Argo immediately I wanted to be out of it.

that was all that was required of me according to the guide you set.
