I am not blaming the commish at all but I actually wrote him yesterday about this all trying to squash it behind the scenes. I actually just assumed Cards bid on a few guys and he should be told so. If I told Cards on the boards we all know what that would have turned into. ( I veto'd a trade from a trade committe standpoint and get ripped apart on here for that, you think telling him he's breaking rules would have went over quietly?) But then he went and nominated 3 more guys today and at a time had 7 players over the limit. It was not an oversight and as Cards admitted "he didn't think he'd win them" so was clearly just breaking rules, which is why I then said something here as quite a few guys were coming on limits including 3 more from Cards. you can ask the commish I did try to squash this at the lowest level and sent Cards an IM about this last night as well.
As much as you say I police this to an extent maybe I do, but I also know as you said the commish has, as we all do, other lives. I feel that my and any other veterans job is if they see something the commish may have missed or just didn't catch we should bring it to the attention.

I think that with all my auction voids everyone should be within the roster limits. Going forward a $5 penalty will be assessed for an illegal bid as we have done in the past.

What does a void auction mean?

Is it open or does it need to be restarted?

All voids would need to be re-nominated.

Apparently some guys with full rosters feel the need to bid on every guy that comes down the pipe.
