Will anyone outbid me on Figo? :wenger:

According to how they are valued now, here are the "best" wingers:

1] Cristiano
2] Ronaldinho
3] Figo
4] Nedved
5] Giggs
6] Beckham
7] Ribéry

Not a bad list by any means! Even if it shows that we are on a United forum.
 
Ribery>Giggs is crazy talk imo...
Anyway Annah I can't see the logic in that. We should make a certain deadline, when some of us will want to move on it will be horrible, some other people will say... "come on" and the rest won't be here and it won't work
 
Rivaldo, Henry, Cavani, Rooney, Tevez, Mata, Oscar, Del Piero, Mendieta, Seedorf, Messi, Forlan etc etc are the wide options/"wingers" in other rounds.
Why are you so desperate to list all these players for others?

I thought naming players was a no-no anyway

Doesn't apply to this draft as it is open anyhow. Also to make sure everybody are aware of players that will be eligible for the current position as well. Will bring it up for Polaroid to decide though, PM'd him.

For me it is what I said there, basically once you bid for something in an auction, you have to pay for it unless someone submits a bigger bid. It's what makes it exciting as well, because one wrong call can screw you. So if someone is just splashing cash mindlessly, he would be left with minimum required for the rest of the team, but if he can sell and retrieve the amount he spent, it is not an auction anymore.

Every manager should be clear in his mind that he needs a minimum of 10 times the number of players he needs after the current round remaining in his budget so if at any time a manager submits a bid that violates that rule, that bid should be called invalid. For example if I have 50m left and I need 4 players, I cannot bid more than 20 on a single player, and if I bid say 25, it should be made invalid.

He will have to pay for it if no one takes it off him, and if he can't pay he loses the player and is fined 10 m. If he can't pay the fine he sells a player to do so. All values are decided by the market, the mechanism simulates transfer market as much as possible. You win some you lose some, Liverpool overpays for Carroll they sell him at a 20 m loss, Real got Ozil on the cheap they earn 30 m profit, it is simply the realities of the market rewarding masterstrokes and punishing mistakes
 
What I meant on the deadlines is

This round has 24 hrs timeline
Bids that come in before 8 am today GMT are deemed to be winning bids if unchallenged for 24 hrs from that time
Bids that come in after that are deemed to be winning bids if unchallenged for 24 hrs from time of submission

Subsequent rounds has 12 hrs timeline
Bids that are unchallenged for 12 hrs from time of submission are deemed to be winning bids

Sorry maybe I'm a bit thick here, but what if it is challenged? Will the cycle continue?

Yes the cycle continues until the competition drops out, just like in a real bidding war
To accelerate proceedings, I propose minimum of 2m increment for bids 50 m and above
