Was the bolded part intended for this league?recte44 wrote: - Players should be listed in order of their league level, with highest league level players be listed first.
- Players should be listed first, followed by any cash that is changing hands, and finally any draft picks that are being exchanged.
- If a player is in the majors, you don't need to list his level.
- You can specify where to assign newly acquired players. Make sure you've cleared a space on the roster and in the position you wish the player to be placed.
Nope, thanks!

Re: Trade Posting Protocol

Please review these requirements to post trades.
I need detail as this post clearly states.
I also need pre-sim instructions.

Re: Trade Posting Protocol
Just bumping again because people still aren't doing it right. Should look like:
SUBJECT: TEAM A(not person posting)/TEAM B(person posting) <--- this is the subject, not sure the order matters, but I have it there because the order does matter in the body of the trade post.
Body of Post:
TEAM A RECEIVES: <-- The poster should be listing what the OTHER team is RECEIVING first.
Pos player 1
Pos player 2 (level if not in majors, from highest to lowest) < --- players should be linked
TEAM B RECEIVES:
Pos player 3 (level if not in majors)
Pos player 4 (level if not in majors)
cash last
- List what each team receives rather than what they give. The creator of the post should start by listing what his trade partner is receiving before listing what he is receiving.
- When you're listing a player, do it in this format (without the brackets): [Position] [Hyperlinked Name] [(Level - DL - DFA)]. Example: RF José Maldonado (SS-A - DL). Do not hyperlink anything except the player names!
- Players should be listed in order of their league level, with highest league level players be listed first.
- Players should be listed first, followed by any cash that is changing hands.
- If a player is in the majors, you don't need to list his level.
- You can specify where to assign newly acquired players. Make sure you've cleared a space on the roster and in the position you wish the player to be placed.
The things consistently being messed up are stating you are sending players. This is wrong. It seems minor, but it gets annoying when trying to evaluate and process trades. It is what the team receives. The team order is less important to me. But for Recte, who is processing these, it would be nice if we could all do them the same way. That's why there is a format.
