....my point was: I posted a week ago ( after another unmanaged trade of mine had been accepted; and after others had posted about being rejected) as to whether or not that meant mine was deemed acceptable and unless beaten by a better offer, would, in fact, be accepted.
Today, the 12th, the day BEFORE the trade deadline, I see my trade rejected, and the player in question not taken by anyone else. As anyone who has successfully pulled off a trade in trhis league knows, 1 day is not an adequate window to leave someone attempting a trade. If (I don't know if you, Ken, are in on the approval process) a sweetener was necessary, couldn't I have been notified earlier, so I could explore other options? And if not, was a response to my query of a week ago, a complete impossibilty?
