Wait.... Are we bidding on players?

Actually, I see no reason not to share already while we wait.

EARLY RUNNER FOR BOTD

@Downcast decided to use his cheat card in the first turn... had a look at everyone's picks and spotted...

@Pat_Mustard sitting pretty on Garrincha, all by himself

Surely that can't be allowed? Of course not! But then, he had just used his CHEAT card to spot options no one was on...

So what does he do? Garrincha - 13M

:lol: @Downcast

Although maybe I shouldn't laugh yet :wenger:

FFS! GIFs ain't answering the question :lol:

The first post does though ;)
 
FFS! GIFs ain't answering the question :lol:
BUDGET
Everyone gets a 100M budget and can spend up to 40M on a player in increments of 1M.

What the feck? This is how it works:

When submitting your pick in Pick 1 of each round, you can also put a bid in, alongside your pick, to try to secure the player if you wish. If two or more managers go for Djemba-Djemba but one offered 35M and the other 32M the former gets him and the other FAILS. The manager who fails in this instance gets his money back.

If two or more bidders bid the same amount; the player gets blocked and they lose their money as well, so think carefully.

If you are the only one picking a specific player and you have also made a bid; the money will be taken from your budget.

To make it clear, you can only bid for players in Pick 1 of each round. Budgets are useless in reinforcement rounds.
 
Must have got drunk after reading how the real Mané was taken from under his nose.
 
Clarification:

Was asking @Tuppet why he didn't just shithead Pat instead of going for a very likely block.

It seems he understood he also had to let us know about it an hour before.

THE OP said:
IMPORTANT: Players must inform they will be using a card at least an hour before the deadline.

We must be told an hour in advance A card will be used so we can prepare stuff in advance for a busy hour around deadline. If it then leads you to using others that's fine.
 
If everyone has submitted then just reveal them!

Some of us are in different time zones up in the middle of the night waiting for them.
Well, everyone clearly hasn't.
 
I would love to publish stuff hrs before deadline but it's just not happening so far.
 
If it then leads you to using others that's fine.

Was wondering about that myself. In other words, you can use more than one card per round/pick.

Use the cheat - and then the shithead when you realize X has gone for Y.

Question: Can you do the above, only using Protect rather than Shithead?
 
@antohan

As told via PM, the list submitted by the stain was misleading because I had the price of one manager and not the others.

So, I thought the manager who was on Garrincha hasn't offered money.
 
TBF, I never cared for that so long as no currently eligible players were mentioned.

Well people are choosing GOAT at the moment I imagine, maybe you should make your way over to RAWK :D

First of all, that was not me. Secondly, it wasn't even the bid on Garrincha that was showing for like 10 seconds. Thirdly:

That is why, I thought one guy did want Garrincha for free while he has offered the max possible 40m :lol:

Deadline.. You know. Good luck!​

You had 3 managers with ?, 2 MISSED DEADLINE, 16 with just a player's name next to it, and one on a player 4-5 others were going for which said FAIL -NAME- 13M

I cocked up giving you that info by accident, but whichever way you reason it it doesn't logically lead to your interpretation.

Let's move on :)
 
Could have had Facchetti for 3m. I feel cheated.

Seriously, though, looking at the other amounts people bid, I'd say he was a decent purchase.

That initial Skizzo/Annah bid deserves some attention, I feel: What was the thinking? If someone else bids (and obviously that's what you assume - otherwise you don't enter a bid in the first place) they either bid the absolute minimum amount too, in which case the player gets blocked, or they outbid you.
