    Re: 2012 Bang or Bucks

    OK... You say "A Free Agent Card can not sell more than it's value." So, say I put up a card that was bought at $25k... Basically, nobody is allowed to bid over $25k for that card and if someone bids exactly $25k, they win automatically then...? Guess I just don't get that, if someone wants to pay more for it, why they aren't allowed to...

    Another question I had pop up in my head: If we decide to sell a card via Free Agency, would we be allowed to put a "Reserve" on it, if we wish? In other words, if we are selling a $25k card, can we put a reserve on it saying that, if bidding doesn't go over $15k, we reserve the right to not sell the card? If that doesn't make sense, hopefully this clip from Ebay will better explain what I'm sayng:

    If you don't want to sell your item below a certain price, you can create an auction-style listing and a set a reserve price. The amount of your reserve price isn't shown to your bidders, but they will see that your listing has a reserve. If you don't receive a bid for at least the amount of your reserve, you aren't obliged to sell your item. Once the reserve price has been met, the reserve price is no longer displayed, and you're obligated to sell your item to the winning bidder.
    Except, in our case, I assume we'd have to make the reserve price known.

      No reserve price.

      And Free Agency is meant to be a last resort. If there is interest in your card you may sell it out right to whoever you want for whatever you want. If you get no interest you can drop it into Free Agency. If it hits the face value price the person who bids that price wins.
      I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
      "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
      You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
      It was all
      true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
      He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
      mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

            Say it's my turn to pick and I'm not around that day. Do I get skipped over and then pick the next day when I am available? Sorta like how the Vikings did it a few years ago.

              I think everyone will have a solid window to make their picks. Im try to keep it fair. Let's see how many teams we get and we can go from there. I'd like to see at least 20 in the draft.

                Unfortunately I am out. With the end of the football season, starts the draft season and my time is already pretty thin.

                Enjoyed being part of the first round though!
                COMING SOON...

                    Like I suggested before, if certain people don't know if they will be available when it's their turn to pick, why not allow a "preference list" of sorts? Especially since the draft is only consisting of the girls that are already cards, making a list (like what you would give to a friend to use to pick for you if you had to miss your fantasy football draft) should be pretty easy. Especially with there still being a few weeks before the draft even starts.

                    Four more questions I came up with:

                    1. With there being no cap, does this also mean no limit on how many cards you can get?

                    2. How long will this "season" last? Last "season" was around 6 months, so starting with $200k and playing the entire year might be even more constrictive than last "season." Although, in theory, it should lower the bids on the cards.

                    3. The current cards that don't end up being "drafted." Do they simply go back into the "rotation," meaning they could come back out at any time (or possibly not at all)? Or, will they be part of the "stash of Free Agents" at the start? Or, a combination of both?

                    4. In the challenges, you mention putting cards "head to head." How would a "winner" be determined? I actually have many more questions on the challenge aspect, but will save those until more detail is out on how the challenges are actually going to work.

                      Re: 2012 Bang or Bucks

                      1. Nope
                      2. I'll revist the season length after about 6 months.. it will depend on activity and participation
                      3. Probably a combination.
                      4. I am going to leave it to a poll vote, based on your ratings you guys are much more into what you find attractive than favoring any sort of team. Your ratings are all subjective but fair, this leads me to believe this should work out.
                      I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"

                        OK, so, "nope, there is no limit on how many cards you can have" or "nope, you're still limited to 10 cards"...?
