Is there anyway I can get the players I put on the transfer list off? I've read the game manual and it indicates that once you list someone you can't remove him. Yikes! you mean I got to keep paying them when I have no intention of using them in the future? They have been listed for 4 days and there has been no bids. Thanks!

When you put a player up on the transfer list their bidding only lasts three days before they are removed and then you can repost them, keep them, or fire them.

If the guys you placed on the transfer list don't sell, you'll be able to fire them once they're no longer on the transfer list (tomorrow afternoon, it looks like). Each listing is only for three days, at which time when the bidding is over, the player either goes to the new team or, if nobody bid, he stays with the old team.

Firing the two players you have listed would bring your salaries just under the salary floor for our league (welcome, btw!), but only by about $500 or so. If you had planned on getting rid of additional players, though, it wouldn't save you any more money since if your salary is under the floor, you pay the floor each week instead.

Any time! The good news is that if this is the biggest 'newbie screwup' you have, you'll do just fine here. The main thing you want to try to do is to decide what you're going to train and get appropriate trainees and a level 4 trainer, and try not to spend too much money on players so you can upgrade your arena. Well, and hopefully you don't injure any of my players later!

Agreed. In D5 you will think building your arena is a waste of time but trust me...when you promote to d4 or higher you will be thankful you did.

I must be in the most awesome D.V, because we have 9 managers who actively log in, and of those more than half are scheduling scrimmages, and even 4 of us have posted on the league forums (three regularly).

Lucky me! And it's good, because I'm focused on arena building and training guys, so it's not so boring.

Our series forum is pretty desolate. There are some guys that log in semi regularly, though, so it's not quite as bad as it could be (this is where I'd have flashbacks to botbashing in VI in Hattrick if I could remember that far back).
