Waivers Question

By raidergreg69
11/12/2020 4:20 am
I put in a claim for QB Hawkes, as did a few other teams. I am not surprised I did not get him but I am surprised to see him awarded to a team with a better record than my team. I could see this at the beginning of the season but at this time, you'd think it goes worst record to first record.

Anybody know the actual waiver rules for MFN?

It's a complete lottery - but I think if you put a claim in and it's unsuccessful you drop to the bottom of the list, but you're right it could/should be better

This was my first and only waiver claim of the entire season.

The player in question isn't good enough to be upset about, but I am upset how a team with a better record gets awarded any player over other teams. I know it's an MFN thing and out of your hands, but I would love to see a post detailing the waiver process if/when JDB ever decides to reveal it so during early season waivers, we know how to plot multiple claims.

I still think I would rather have a list of MFN playoff tiebreakers though, MFN does not follow NFL tiebreakers to the letter but idk where exactly it branches off.

It goes by power rankings. You're ranked higher.

4 teams bid. Me and Bermuda. I guess the other two game from this pool of team?

The reds picked up two guys...perhaps they were 1 of the two teams?

For real? That's pretty stupid imo. Everybody knows the MFN power rankings are a joke, which is why so many custom league commissioners do their own.
