FOLLOW UP TO PREVIOUS POST: RE TRADING YOU RUINED MY LEAGUE
Earlier this week i had a completely equitable trade protested and vetoed. i had never experienced a contested trade in paid formats on yahoo before. the complete opaqueness and unfairness of the rules was beyond any justrification.
my trading partner and i went back and re-did the trade to appease to whoever is in charge of adjucating this. it was against disputed - bc the trade protest as currently constructed is entirely open to disingenous abuse where you can effectively stall out a valid exchange and therefore affect that weeks matchups - and it was again vetoed.
consequently my trading…

never using product again
So I understand...in public prize leagues:
- only 1 team veto is needed to initiate a review -that team remains completely anonymous -the review is done by an anonymous person -no explanation is provided -there is no appeal process -there is no person or department to contact who can overturn
what exactly stops a person who knows how this works from instigating a review on every trade?
how can users know they are being treated fairly if no explanation is ever given?
how is there no way to appeal this? One man looks at this and makes a snap decision and… -
Yahoo league # 1251769
I have a pending trade in this league which includes Devon Achane. As of this morning he has been ruled out for the year with torn ACL. I feel like this trade should not go through based on the injury. If it was a few weeks or so even a month I would understand but this a year ending. To me this changes the value of the trade and should be vetoed. I would’ve expressed this in the protest trade screen but won’t let me submit my input being that I’m involved in the trade. I’m sure I’m not the…

Adding a player to the trade block
I also play on the sleeper fantasy football app, and one thing that I do like from them is you can put a player on the trade block for everyone to see, so then maybe someone else may offer a trade due that player. Can you put that in this year or maybe next season. Thanks
Thanks for reaching out about adding players to the trade block. If you access the league via web, go to the "Research" tab along the top, and then scroll down, you'll find a section where players are marked as available for trade in your league. You can click on "Mark a player as available" to mark your players available for trade. In order to do this in the app, you'll need to purchase a Fantasy Plus subscription.

Process the trades on time
it screws teams when you have a process date listed and then you don't process them on that date.
Thank you for reaching out regarding processing trades on time. There are a few reasons why a trade may not process when you originally expect. If your league is a public prize league, managers can protest trades. As a result, they are pushed back by one day. Also, if any players involved in a trade have already played in a team's starting lineup, the trade is pushed back to after the fantasy week ends. This also applies to bench players if the league has the "Lock benched players after game start" setting set to "Yes".

Trade deadlines should be changed.
For starters…..have an option for customizable trade deadlines. If that doesn’t work at least make the deadlines on Tuesdays instead of Saturdays. Deadline shouldn’t be between games of a given week.

Make Trade Alerts More visible
I am a long time Yahoo Fantasy Football player. Yahoo is my favorite outlet for Fantasy Football. The only thing is I would recommend another way of showing there is a trade request to other players. I am a veteran but for the not so inspired player or inexperienced player hardly notices they have a trade request. Maybe when the players log on the trade request could pop up just like the end of the week results and grades pop up after a win/loss. This would ensure the players see the request.

I am getting an error trying to create a trade and deadline is approaching
I am trying to suggest a trade. Select a manager and then a player on their team. I hit continue and get this message ... "You must select at least one player or pick. (Error #675)" ... How can I continue to select the player I want to trade for?!?!?!?!

Trade voting
Hello Yahoo!
I was wondering if you could add a feature for when trades are submitted for vote that there is a yes or no option for each manager . This way the vote could go through quicker than waiting the full 2-day period. Also with that it would be nice to know the count of yes vs no of a trade. Maybe as a commissioner we could know the managers that voted yes or no. Thank you so much for your time and consideration! Commish Arabian Knight -
Fix Trade Processing
If a trade is normally scheduled to be processed after some or all players have played their game, making them “uneditable” go back to the previous procedure of processing the trade X number of days later once that week has been completed. Your current and flawed procedure of just emailing managers telling them that the trade could not be processed is ridiculous, unnecessarily cumbersome, and potentially league altering. So instead of my trade being pushed back a day to be processed it’s just been cancelled by Yahoo. Now I’m trying to get the commissioner to move the players on his…
During the trade review period, you can’t make a roster move that would subsequently put your team over the roster limit, when the trade would process, or affect the players associated with the trade. This will also occur in uneven trades when the player scheduled to be dropped:
- Is dropped during a waiver claim, prior to the trade transaction.
- Is traded to another team, prior to the trade transaction.
- Is dropped outright, prior to the trade transaction.
If the player scheduled to be dropped in the original transaction is affected in any way, the trade will become void and the pending status will disappear.
It’s both managers’ responsibility to ensure they have enough roster space and that the players associated with the trade are not altered, after a trade has been accepted.

Add trade blocks - (3-5 players you're interested in trading away) This was for NHL fantasy, but should be universal to all sports
It's hard to gauge who everyone wants to trade, especially when it comes to deeper leagues. Would be a cool addition.

Interactive Trade Evaluation
The trade process currently is very manual and slow. It's hard to evaluate trade options when you have to create a new "trade proposal" just to see the evaluations.
1.) Create a "trade portal" where you can actively place and switch out players to view evaluations in real time. This would you create a better experience and flow for trades.
2.) If not that, there should be a button to adjust the trade. Currently if you press back all the players are deselected.

the new change that does not allow team to make trade offers with ineligible players in an IR spot should be a league option not mandated.
The new change that blocks a team from making a trade offer when they have an ineligible player in an IR spot should be a league and commissioner setting, not set by the platform. This has frustrated many in my league this year. Blocking a team from FA adds or waivers with ineligible IR spots makes sense, but when teams make good moves to get through injuries and are forced to drop players without the opportunity to trade them should be managed by the league rules not the platform. This would be a great commissioner tool option rather than a…

Trades Not Very Visible
In Yahoo Fantasy sports, particularly NFL football, trade requests are not very visible to the user receiving the offer. This has been true through various desktop and mobile user interface iterations. Simply put, the space a request appears in is too small and undifferentiated visually from the rest of the features occupying the screen. Trades sit unanswered the majority of the time not because the user is thinking about the offer, but because they never notice them in the first place. I have plenty of first-hand accounts of people I know personally not recognizing they have a trade request until…

Need help
Why was my trade vetoed? Egbuka and Rice were drafted very close to one another.
Thank you for reaching out about your vetoed trade. Public Prize League managers have 2 days to lodge an official protest with the Yahoo Sports League Office. Protests must contain a description of why the trade should be vetoed. Only 1 manager needs to protest a trade in a Public Prize League for the League Office to initiate the trade review process:
- Reviewed within 24 hours, after the 2-day league review period.
- Notes left by managers involved in the trade are taken into consideration.
- Once the trade is accepted or rejected by the League Office, the decision is final and explanations aren't provided.

Block managers from offering you trades
There should be a way to block managers from offering you trades and the recipient to see that they've been blocked as a way of sending a message that they are offering horrible trades, with a cool-down being optional

Why does it take so long to process a trade? It doesn't make sense...
Why does it take so long to process a trade? It doesn't make sense...
Hi,
The amount of time for trades to process is dependent on your league's trade settings. For example, if your league uses a 2-day trade review period, then a trade accepted on a Monday could be reviewed all of Tuesday and Wednesday and it would process on Thursday. If you have any questions about your league's trade review settings, please reach out to our support team via help.yahoo.com and we would love to help.
Thank you for reaching out,
