It's the second-most wonderful time of the year - TRADE DEADLINE DAY is almost here! Read on for all the details on our very special Trade Deadline Day Spectacular!
Sunday, May 2nd, 2021 - 11:00am Start Time
Where: Google Meet (link TBD), and Slack
All trades during this time (from 11:00am EDT up to the 5:00pm EDT deadline) will be subject to "rapid-fire approval". This means unless a deal is obviously detrimental, it will be approved instantly!
-- Trades will be posted on the special "Deadline Day" Trade Tracker
-- Trades will be updated in the sim
-- Trades will be instantly updated on all Output pages
THE PROCESS
From 11:00am EDT to 5:00pm EDT, trades WILL NOT be posted in the forums. Both GM's involved in the deal must message COREY CHERNUKA (NJD GM) on Slack with the full deal (no shortcuts - full names and proper formats!) and their approval. Corey will send the deal to me, I will then quickly verify it is actionable per the BEARD Hockey Rulebook, the trade will be announced on the live stream, and then I will initiate the updates as laid out above.
If you do not follow this process, your deal WILL BE IGNORED! This includes posting in the forums during this time - again, ANY DEAL posted in the forums between 11:00am EDT and 5:00pm EDT will be ignored!
The 5:00pm EDT trade deadline is a HARD deadline. Any deals submitted after 5:00pm EDT on Sunday, May 2nd will not be actioned.
GM INVOLVEMENT
We encourage all available GM's to attend and join in the live stream. We will have some special drop-ins from Aaron Sanderson (host of the amazing BEARD Hockey Podcast) and I'm sure there will be a special guest or two! We will also feature those in attendance during lull periods in the action.
It is not mandatory to attend - however, even if you are not active on Deadline Day, the more GM's participating, the more fun it will be!
