There are enough GOATs in the pool to recalibrate your teams. Maybe a change in strategy will work wonders.

I doubt any team will emerge weaker despite this.

Losing Figo I could handle but Kubala was very key to my strategy and cover for a number of positions. Oh well I still love this draft.. its been very entertaining and a tough challenge.

In a hindsight having an auction(the ability to recruit more than 2 players) is better than snake for the teams that lost key players.

A never-nude? I thought he just liked cut-offs.

I've decided to amend RF2 to auction mode to keep in line with the draft theme. RF2 will now read as:

RF 2.0 - Reinforcements will be in open auction format.
RF 2.1 - $70m budget with minimum 3 players to be picked. Clean Slate. Money left (if any) from previous rounds will not be added to this.
RF 2.2 - Each manager can nominate only 5 players or less for this round. Player pool will be eliminated teams for R1.
RF 2.3 - Players born before 01-Jan-1945 will have minimum starting bid of $20m. After that date it'll be $10m minimum.
RF 2.4 - GoalKeeper's start off minimum bid of $20m.
RF 2.5 - 12 hrs without up-bid to be successful.
RF 2.6 - $2m minimum up-bid for first 8 hours. $5m minimum up-bid for last 4 hours.​

Auction will start at 12:00 noon BST Tuesday 02-Aug-2016

This is much simpler with less players to manage. So please do not exceed your budget at any time.

Excess = Successful purchases + in progress bids + minimum needed to buy 3 players > $70m

Considering the relative ease to manage budget, the penalties for excess will be strictly enforced this round. You will lose a DoF player or highest bid successful player for this round.

:lol: Getting a straight 2 vs 2 would be difficult in Snake. In Auction you have better opportunities to get some cheap deals and tweak better.

Aye, the auction format is probably better overall, but we had 2nd pick in the snake damn it! It will be nice getting 3 players though, and you've redeemed yourself slightly by being kind to us with the injuries.

Won't be around when the festivities begin - I honestly can't be arsed to do this thing on the phone, so I'll wait until I get back home.

Should be back around 3-4.

Don't think it should be much hassle to be fair. Realistically it won't have more than 16-20 bids on average to fit in budget but let's see.

20m.

Will be interesting if there will be bids for GK's having in mind half of the managers had youth keepers and some without backup for the second round.

Did just harms blew the entire budget dead on opening time? :lol:

Only P-Nut and Raees have to field their youth keeper at the moment.
