Signing a player requires the player actually wanting to sign, you can't force someone to sign if they don't want too. I believe Weegar when he says he wants to sign, but we don't know if that's just him saying that to the media or his actual intention.

Treliving has been facked over by geography so many times and still has a 100 point team...boggles the mind some still doubt him
If Weegar will take a fair deal it will get done, if 6.5+x8 isn't good enough for him its pretty hard to blame the GM. You cant just give a guy everything he wants.
