Seeing everyone bidding big, I have no idea how this is going to pan out. Do people think we're ever going to see bargains here? Even in the later rounds you'll have the few who saved their money getting into bidding wars. I think the only way of getting someone on the cheap is if you pick a player not everyone rates.
I stated earlier that if you are clever you will keep money for the coming rounds. The quality is very similar there with the "worst 20" in this list and the next list. You can then just talk openly to the other managers to avoid bidding for the same players.

You could then basically decide your coming 11 players ahead of everybody else.

FAO all managers

When the 24hr timeline of your bid is up, provide a link to your bid post to declare your winning bid. The timestamp on that post (which will also capture any edits) will serve as evidence that your bid was unchallenged for 24 hrs. You can then add the player to the purchased list below the auction list.

Prime Adriano is just as good as Rooney or Drogba, if not better. It would actually be awful if he's not even seen level to them here, just awful :lol:

How is this fair? Fergus' son has bid 240m on 4 players? (Ronaldo 95, Rivaldo 65, Zanetti 50, Cole 30)

7 players left and he only has 60m?

paceme has bid 246m on 5 players? (Messi 102, Iniesta 70, Abidal 22, Terry 30, Carvalho 22)

6 players left and he only has 54m?

Isn't this supposed to be against the rules?

No. they get fined 30m if they can't fulfill their bid at any time

But a bunch of us have decided not to break budget anyway. You can join

Massively inflated market here with everyone trying to get involved. Was wondering would it be an idea to throw a few more names in the mix, ie: another list of 55 names in a new thread. Could work in tandem with this one easily enough wouldn't it?

No. they get fined 30m if they can't fulfill their bid at any time
Fergus and Paceme won't get fined though since they can afford all the players at the moment. They can then just keep the ones they want and sell off the rest. Heck they might even be able to sell some off at a profit if there's a shortage in those positions.

Massively inflated market here with everyone trying to get involved. Was wondering would it be an idea to throw a few more names in the mix, ie: another list of 55 names in a new thread. Could work in tandem with this one easily enough wouldn't it?
Me and EAP proposed the same thing earlier.

It is inflated beyond belief IMO.. but that happens in auctions.. let it be... would be fun seeing people trying to pick up 10m players in the end

Not a bad shout but think it'd complicate things. I think right now, this is the worst bit because we didn't reach the minimum time (which is why I thought we should have kicked off the 24h from when we started, not delayed it).

Once noon comes about things will become fluid a bit more. The big guns are reaching their prices now I imagine no more bids will go on a lot of them.

TBH I don't care. I am done debating the game dynamics, let's just play

Seriously folks, let it just run for now.

This is the first auction draft so we will learn something once it is done. Just can't chopping and changing every time though
