Nomination Auction Game - Sign Up 

Post#1 » by goober » Wed Apr 19, 2017 2:51 pm

Welcome to the Nomination Auction Game!

In your sign up, please nominate 8 players to be in the auction. Every auctioneer must have 8 different players nominated. If you accidentally nominate someone who's already been nominated, I will PM you to change it.

Any player that's played from the 1950-1951 season to the 2015-2016 season is available for nomination

Any bid that is the top bid for 3 hours can be claimed. This totally eliminates the last second bid dynamic and leaves no incentive to wait to bid or wait to outbid.

There will be 4 tiers including 20 total players, if a player is not bid on by the end of a tier, they move on to the next tier.

After the 12 hour window ends, I will ask a mod to lock the thread and whoever has the highest bid for player X will be able to claim him and add them to their roster page. Time stamps will be used so no worry if a thread doesn't get locked immediately. Any player that doesn't recieve a bid will drop to the next tier. People are allowed to place as many bids as they want during each tier BUT keep in mind there is no retracting bids. So the second you make a bid you can not take it back and therefore need to be prepared to claim the player. ALSO, you have to account for your salary cap limit. So if you end up spending $80 on three players all in the first tier then good luck filling out the rest of your roster. You must bid at least $1 on 8 players to build a legal team.

Rules:

1) Everyone will be given a $100 dollar salary cap to construct a 8 man rotation

2) we will NOT be using a FGA restriction this game.

3) each tier will open at 10AM EST (morning) and close after 12 hours at 10 PM EST and the next tier will be opened the day after

4) Everyone needs to include each player they claim and how much they spent on them on their roster page. This will make it easier for me to keep track of.

5) I think it would be easiest to make it where all bids have to be in increments of $1

Example of legal bids:

$1
$10
$24
$62


Example of non-legal bids:

$1.50
$25.75
$38.25

*Basically any bid that has change isn't legal.

6) If you want to place a bid on a player who already has a bid on him then you have to raise the bid by a minimum of $1. So if the highest bid for David Robinson is $20 then you have to at least start your bid for him at $21.

7) I will need 8 total signups before this can get started but hoping to get 16.

8) After everyone has assembled a 8-man rotation the playoffs will begin.

9) Players drafted have any season they've played in eligible (except 2016-2017), there is nothing like FGA to restrict seasons, if a player is purchased any season (besides 2016-2017) is in play
***I want this to be a clean thread so signups only, NO discussion. You can post any questions you have in the general discussion thread***


****This will start once we have a finalized amount of people playing******

3) Tony Snell
