Trade meter flipping after trade is submitted

What the **** is going on with this? I thought I saw some forum chatter about this a while ago but it hasn't been addressed and I couldn't find any information on how to correctly interpret what the meter is showing. Example:

  1. I offer a trade to another team where the meter shows in his favor when I am building it.
  2. Once I submit it, it shows the opposite, the meter is now in my favor.
  3. I have no idea what the other owner is seeing. I suspect they are seeing it in my favor because I've received at least one offer where the owner says the trade is in my favor but it looks to be in his favor from my perspective.

This makes the already frustrating process of building a trade (due to the inconsistency in what the meter allows) even more confusing.

This needs to be fixed.

I just did some testing. It does appear to be intermittent...or more likely, caused by certain trade structures or the like. For instance, I tried a couple of trade of 1 player for 1 or 2 picks and it did not happen. However, when I tried a trade of 1 pick for 3 it did happen.

Can you do this and maybe withdraw the trade but PM me the details so I can log into your account and see if I can reproduce it? I've never actually seen this happen and think that there is probably some combination that I'm not testing.

I have an active "test" trade pending with a friend of mine where who won't accept it so you can check that one out if you want (feel free to withdraw it when you log in as me).

I agree the problem is probably specific to some combo.

Thanks!

FYI, I confirmed with my friend that he sees the offer in my favor. So he sees the same as I do after I submit...the opposite of what it was before I submitted.

Shouldn't each owner see the trade differently based on their own player weights?

This was extremely helpful, I believe I found the bug that was causing this.

Not any more, mainly so you can't trick the meter by changing your weights. It uses the default weights to evaluate the trade, so both sides should see the same evaluation.
