Trade Appealing

[canesgm]

In one of my other well run leagues there is a rule implemented for people to be able to appeal the Trade Rater's decision to the league if they want.. I think it would help with some of the current Trade disputes going on here is how it goes:

Appealing a Trade Decsion

In the event that you strongly disagree with a trade rejection you can appeal the decision to the league. This is done by creating a poll stating that you have appealed the rejection and why you think the trade should be processed, The poll will run for 3 days, The leagues GMs will have the option to vote on if they think the trade should be approved or not. All of the GMs involved in the trade are not allowed to vote. Each GM is limited to appealing only 2 trades per season.

This benefits the league in a couple ways, If a trade is close you can get it through and everyone is happy, It also prevents the trade raters from rejecting a trade because they feel it will strengthen a team to the point where the trade rater's team will be beaten by them. Keeps everyone happy and prevents arguments.

Just My 2 cents,

Kyle
Canes GM

im not sure if i understood the whole thing here, but are you not alowed to start an appeal on your own trade? and how would we know who voted because i dont think it shows so if you voted on your own trade, i would look like just another vote.

You start your own appeal, but you can't vote on your own poll, and with most message board systems Moderator's can view who voted

I like this idea. Good post canesgm.

Sounds a good idea, if it is limited down to two appealings per season!!! Then if the two gms does feel so strongly about a trade they have a chance to get it though!!!!
