if your team sells, you get 3 days to use the release yourself link. it doesnt matter how many players are on the team.

Thanks.I also didn't remember the 3 days.

that only applies during the season. i swear i remember that being reset from 30 to 24 because i can remember losing TPs during the season because i was trying to store tps on a rookie to wait until day 4 so i could get some breakthrus

This past season I had some players get up to 28 waiting to level up.

yeah, i am less sure on my memory on this one. i just vaguely remember losing some and ever since have never held more than 22 so that the nightly 2 will only put me to 24. this was many may years ago.

If I remember correctly, you can release yourself from a CPU-owned team at any time. The 3-day thing comes into play once a new owner BUYS a CPU team that your dot is on... once the new owner buys the team, you have 3 days to release yourself. But as long as the team remains CPU-owned, you can release yourself at any time.

No, if you put your dot on a cpu team you cannot release the dot at anytime, you either have to get someone to send the dot an offer then have them release it or wait until the end of the season.
The only time you are able to release a dot is as said in previous posts in this thread is if a human own team goes cpu you have 3 days to release the dot,you get a pm saying that the team went cpu but be careful don't delete the pm until you release your dot that is the only way to release it is thru that pm.

Good info to have, Bluesman. Thanks. I tried this morning as a test to put a dot onto D league. Couldn't free him, had to retire. Just trying to get a grip on the rules I haven't encountered in years. I assumed CPU in normal or casual would be the same with the additional restraint of not being able to even retire him while he was under contract.

the only part of that that is right is that you get the chance to release yourself for 3 days after your team is bought.

you get the 3 day chance if your team is sold or bought. i always tell owners that plan to sell at the end of the season, to sell as soon as their season is over so that the players might jump onto a cpu team still in the playoffs. i've made that mistake of deleting the pm ...dohhhh

you can go inactive 6 days or ask support to cut you in leau of retiring. but usually, i just ask a team to sign/cut me. but theres a point where they have to wait 6 days to cut, and i dont know the exact rules for that. and they cant cut you if it puts them under 40 players.

That must be what I'm thinking of then. Midway through Season 68 I bought a CPU-owned Rookie team to test some AIs, and I starting sending offers to dots that were on CPU-owned teams both in D-League and in the actual Rookie Leagues. I ended up signing over 20 dots that way, so from D-League teams, some from CPU-owned Rookie League teams. And again, this was all mid-season. So maybe you can't just flat-out release yourself, but you CAN accept a contract offer from a human-owned team and leave the CPU-owned team that way.

So, you're not stuck. There is a way out of a CPU-owned team other than just retiring.

dang hedgehogs!
