If it's your intention that the person in last place have the first waiver pick only once each week, then leave it the way it is - just change the priority order once, at the beginning of each week - although, as I say, I think that half-defeats the purpose of doing this in the first place.
It doesn't half defeat the purpose. It gives the last place team the first shot at the best available player on waivers. And if they pick and get that player, they have gotten the best player available on waivers at the time. Now if I happen to cut a player the day after DMC is awarded his pick, then why should he then get first crack at another good player in the same week?

What you are suggesting is that after the last place team gets their first pick, then i should reset the waiver order so that he continually gets the first pick all week long. I don't believe that the last palce team should be ableto get first crack day after day at evey player on waivers.

The waiver order will be reset every Monday based on the standings. The team in last place will get the first pick for that week from the waiver wire, then move to the bottom allowing the next team to get thier desired pick.

You've balked that my releasing all of those players last week to the waiver list was unfair, and yet here you are suggesting that the last place team get a chance everyday of picking up the best player everytime they claim someone in that week. I think that allowing the last place team to get the 1st pick if they make a claim everyday of that week is way more unfair then my making when I made all of those players available last week to the league.

For instance right now there are 4 players on the waiver list. According to the way that you suggest doing the waiver order and resetting it, DMC would actually get all four of those player if he put in 4 claims.

I see no reason why the last-place team should get 7 days of potentially stealing players on waivers from the rest of the league. He should get the first pick, and then drop down to the end.


The waiver order will be reset every Monday according to the standings.
