Set your active lineup ahead of time if you don't want to log on everyday.

1. Reset finished. Teams, prices, waivers are exactly the same as before.
= If you see an error somewhere message me.

2. Re do your line-ups. As offline draft put all players on the bench. Schedules randomized again.

3. Resend the previous 2 trades.

Going ahead with my plan of merging BEAST MODE+ HALF COURT HOODLIMS + Rachel's Rad Team.
No response, not waiting any longer.

I transferred the team, chose the best players and combined it into 1.
All other players from those 3 teams will be thrown to waivers and can be picked up by everyone.


1. I will be resetting the draft tomorrow. Deleting BEAST MODE and Rachel's Rad Team.
2. Every team will have the exact same players and prices after i re add everyone.
3. All trades present must be proposed again. I want it to show on trade history.
