    Be very tough to track, since every post, view, etc would raise the amount of ZB someone has...

    Whatever money you have is the money you can use. I dont think there are controls in place to restrict the posting and viewing money.

    I have no objection to someone taking that on. I just know I can't
    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.

    TD, I think those that are very into the game do this already. For example, Bleonard mentioned he had a spreadsheet where he kept track of other people's money, etc. Toward the end, I didn't keep track in writing down, but I knew who had alot to spend and who didn't.

    It really is up to you on how much you want to put into it. It's not up to Bedard or someone else to make life easy for you. If you want that kind of information and edge, you need to put the work into the game.

    That was last season, when we had a hard cap. With the ZB being so fluid this time (people getting ZB for posting, viewing a thread, replying, etc) I'm not keeping track of people's cash this year, as people's cash literally can change every minute. All's I'm tracking is how much each card went for and who has what cards.

    That and I have won some lotteries as well. There were only a few people participating, until Bedard posted a note about it a little while back...

    The odds on lotteries have gone down considerably, since more are now entering. But, of the past 20 lotteries held, I've won 5 of them, so those helped.

    Also, keep in mind that I got Jodie Sweetin for $4500 and Rhona Mitra for $10k... At $27k, Jennie Finch was the most I spent on an auction...

    Different lotteries have different payouts. For example, chern has won 2 recently, each worth $5k... So, that's $10k right there.

    Everyone who played from day 1 started with 200K plus the three free girls from the draft.

    If you earn after that (lottery, thread starting, fat tony etc) you can use that as well.
