Everyone else is being polite.

What sentence wasn't?

and

How the word "ridiculous" is "being polite"?

Talking about "being polite"...

I'll repeat, as you brought the same questions about the suggestion, that I've already answered.

1) No, it is not just one user as the Spaniard explain about his nation.

2) No, my player was not the one that was exposed, so trying to make this up like this is just because I'm angry about this or that, as a reason to ignore it, fails wide.

3) Having about 6 players that are NT-legit in the same leauge as the NT manager does, or 15 teams at worse, that all don't cooperate does not turns things around.
One can verify it with the Is-Legit rule with not much of a difficulty.

And I'll state that this claim of yours has nothing to do with the "Break-Even" rule but just with the "Is NT-Legit" one.

4) When you quote someone, qoute him/her exactly.
a) The player had been 68K compared to 130K and above.
b) He is a 28yo that finished his training way back.
Not surprisingly, he NEVER played at the O21 (Over-21) NT.
If he had high OD/JR in the amount that he was a consideration compared to a 130K player, his Best-Position could not have been of a PF.

Maybe I fail to see it, but at least one thing is sure (again, unless I am missing something).
None of your claims wasn't about the break-even rule.
Am I right? If not, elaborate exactly on that

The only result is the one the BBs take.

So why dont we all leave it as it is and leave it in the hands of the BB's? I think everything has been discussed and repeated more then enough.

I agree with that, but I will correct one thing in your (pretty good and balanced) summary.

The correction is that the break-even rule that gives league's collegue the same opporunity to peek, if he had been poked, does not affect at all the work of the NT MRG.
It does not make it hareder or easier.
It just fixing the unbalance state the current situation is.

Roger out. :)

The phrase just means that some people arent telling you outright that they don't like your suggestion. Not that you are not being polite.

You have a reasoned argument that you obviously feel very passionately about. I give you kudos for that!

I wasnt speaking directly to you necessarily, but I covered the break-even rule in the first paragraph with the blanket statement "None of the proposed solutions solve the perceived problem."

This is not something that could be regard as a reason, but so be it...

Roger out

Here is what the ISR NT Wrote me which strengthen my position about the topic.

He said that peeking on that player had been by mistake (more precisely, peeking had been done automatically, but after viewing that player, he understood that he is not really someone that may be eligible to the NT) and he immediately deleted that player from his list, after he was pointed out about that player.
But the damage already done.

This means:
1) That player indeed wasn't NT-legit player.

2) Hence, it prooves that the Is-Legit rule would have identify that and prevent MGRs from that league to feel bad about the event. Both him and the others.

3) The break-even rule is good regardles, as there is just no reason, NT-legit or not, to give one manager an advantage over the other.

EDIT - clarified per request

To be accurate - The NT manager said he got a list of tracked players from the previous NT manager and he went over all of them. It was nice of him to update the list after he looked at the players...

I don't want to get in to this argument - But I just want to paint a more accurate picture.
The guys here who are not part of the Israeli community might understand from your post that he saw an Israeli player that plays in the same league as he does and "accidentally" clicked on the button... That wasn't the case.

P.S - I'm not part of the Israeli NT and I don't know what's going on. Just saw the messages in the Israeli thread and wanted to say it as it was.
