I'll try to work out a better way to present it.  The difference here is there are up to 350 odd picks per round, so it's not as simple as ticks and crosses.  I could export a pdf to show all the bids?

So wait did someone else match my bid for Kaka and Dida hence I never got em?
Two people bid the same highest value for those two.  So they remain in the player pool.

Looks good that Prof   :)

I'm sure it won't go unnoticed that this'll be an utter nightmare to run.
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

Some balls on those bids.

60 for Gerrard, 40 for Luis Garcia, 30 for Finnan.

;D

I had a few teething problems last night.  I had an idea of how to present all the info, but it didn't work as I expected it to.  This'll be slick now... honest.

Thanks for your patience last night.  I was trying to get the results together as early as I could.  The overview of the squads is the hardest bit to present now.  I think the pdf will give the most complete set of information, but isn't as accessible as a screen dump.

I thought you could only bid 100 million on players or what you had in your budget? As the total bid.

Rosso bid 143 million on players, no wonder he got 3!

Actually a few have gone over 100?!  Vishwa bid 102.

Oh yes.  I didn't check that with my other problems.

Do we DQ them from this round, or warn everyone for the future?  Was it clear that bids had to be within budget?

I'm off out now, so will pick up the fallout on my return.

It was in the rules, so I thought it was clear.

I got two players so I am hapyy to just remind people.  But the ones who got no players might no agree.

I say put the players Rosso's and Vishwa got back in the selection for round 3 (as they broke the rules) and everyone can bid for them again then.

I don't mind what you do though.

Pretty clear in the rules as stated in the OP: You can bid for as many players as you like in any round as long as the total bid does not exceed your bank balance, and you discard players if your squad limit is exceeded.

Happy to leave it up to you but being able to bid 143 million is a pretty big advantage.

I'd be willing to let it slide for the first round, don't think it affects things that much.

It affects is quite a lot.

I would have got Alonso 9 instead of 14 million.

Finnan would have been 3 instead of 6.

Hyypia would have gone to Chakan.

Crespo would have gone to Popcorn

Seedorf to Max powers.

Kaka and Carragher would have gone to other players as well.

I think the round will have to be void when you look at it closely.

Shit I didn't notice that. To be honest the players I got were the players I wanted and other bids were speculative. However if people want to void it I understand.

Pretty much this. I think its better to put players that were won by those bids back for selection in round 3. I do not know if round itself can be declared void, may be only the players that might have changed hands if bids were legit?

Right.  I've made an executive decision.  Rules are rules and we'd have anarchy without them.

I've voided the bids from the two people who exceded their budget.  Therefore the bids look like this:



I'll update the squads and upload a pdf shortly.

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT BUDGETS MAY HAVE CHANGED AND DIDA AND KAKA ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE IN ROUND 2

I'm sure I bid 21m for Pirlo? I made it so all my bids make a total of 100m and with Pirlo 21m it makes 100m with 12 it makes 91m?

Anyway thanks for running this Prof, must be a nightmare to handle with all these bids

Oh crap.  You are right.

Sorry KingLuis.  You've lost Pirlo.  It was a tie for 21mill, data inputting error.

I'll add Pirlo to round 3.  I've had loads of bids through already for this round.

You got Maldini for 25.  King Luis bid 24.  The pdf should also say 25 and Gerrard 39 (Samie bid 38).

OK yeah I meant 25 it's just that it doesn't show the 24 bid on the above table. So I wasn't sure

You have ( your bid in the table is green) and you get him for 1 million more than the next highest bid (9mil) so 10mil you got him for
