I guess I'll have to be the Lakers. Gross.

edit: If anyone really wants the Lakers I will gladly switch to a different team

I'll trade with you on the condition that I'm allowed to move them back to Minneapolis

Though in honesty we probably shouldn't relocate teams for this game. It'd just be confusing.

Yeah, just for my sake right now, switching teams is fine but renaming you guys can do when making your personal lists or whatever, just for sake of ease right now I need relative locations :D

Anyway, sorry for the delay, should be updated. Filled up way quicker than I anticipated.

Will probably start this on Monday btw (with the list dropping late Sunday night), so hoping for 3 guys in the next 2-3 days. Should be doable.

:siren: GAME IS FULL! :siren:

If there are extra signups, maybe a team can take on a co-gm. I think it's happened a few times in the past.

I will probably move the start date up to Sunday evening since it filled quickly. This will last several weeks! Be smart with your $1000!

Day 1 (of 19? 20?)'s 20-30 biddable players will be posted sometime late Saturday in this thread and people will have until 7:00 PM EST Sunday, 7/24 to send me their blind bids privately. You simply will put your highest offers for any of the players posted. Again, if you have questions about the rules, PM me but it should be explained in the OP. I'll write a few of the essentials below.

  • You can either PM me your list or email it to me. My email should be in the original post.

  • You don't have to bid on every player. You don't even have to bid until the last few days if you wanted as long as you finish with 15 players.

  • Each team starts with $1000. You cannot bid for separate players with more money than you currently have (ie, you can bid $300 between three players because it would equal $900 if you won all of the bids (but then you'd only have $100 to split between 12 other players), or you can put $500 for one player, but you can't bid $500 for 5 separate players because you do not have $2500. And this applies to you the whole way through, so if you won a bid and only have $700 left, you can divvy up your bids but it can't go over $700, etc, etc (and take your roster spots into account too, read below!)

  • Your maximum bid must always take into account how many roster spots you have. If you have $100 and one roster spot left, your max bid would be $100. If you had $100 left and you have 5 roster spots to fill, your maximum bid is $95 because you'd need five $1 bids to fill in the rest.

  • I won't give any huge tips out but read previous threads. Goons overspend A LOT the first few days. And I would say that anything over $500-600 for a superstar is.. a lot. But it's never stopped teams before. Build how you want!

Anyway, thanks everybody for joining. Should be a fun time again.
