Okay so two teams can bid the max and lower guy gets him? Did not see that, thanks Jon. That is correct. It's happened many, many times. Technically I could have just made the same exact bid as you did on Alfredsson instead of raising it like I did. Good point, since some have forgotten a few rules. Jon could have just raised the years, without raising cash, he choose to do both. Min bid of 100,000 not required if you can raise the years.

Never have understood why people even bother putting in minimum bids on star players. If your serious about the player, make a real bid! You are not going to get a star for league minimum, someone will notice! It just wastes time.

For the new guys, what happens now is that we will go through all of the bids for the day. All of the highest bids will be subtracted from your posted available funds (link below) and that is what you will have available to start tomorrow. Remember to keep track of your funds if someone outbids one of your players. Both your available cap room for free agency and your daily starting limit is in the link below... jghl.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=20102011season&action=display&thread=2676*This is NOT updated yet, but will be sometime tonight, definitely before FA opens tomorrow*

You are not going to get a star for league minimum, someone will notice! It just wastes time. Because of the new rule about a player closing ($), being more expensive to bid on someone if you haven't already put a bid on that player, so I'm just keeping options open, that was my thinking anyway. Perhaps I missed something in the rules but how (or why) does someone put a bid in on a player that is the exact same bid, especially when the bid is already the max the player can get? Because they finished with a lower record. It's one of the only benefits to not doing well the year before, besides getting a higher draft pick. I feel bad about doing those things to teams, but this is the cut throat part of the year. It has happened to almost everyone.

starting off bad today already- one guy bids to early and another bids too low. Fla your bid is illegal and will not count.

I opened FA a little early, since I'm at work and it was more convenient to just do it a bit early, no biggy on the early bid.

Got yet another illegal bid on a closing player. If you are the 1st to bid on a closing player and have not bid before today, on a closing player $, you must bid at least 500,000 not raise years or bid any less If you have bid before and are the 1st to bid, on a closing player $, you must bid at least 250,000 not raise years or bid any less. Jon sent an E-mail out to remind everyone of that.

Also because you raise the years doesn't mean you can lower the money bid - that must stay the same.

I think if a player goes for 2 days without any bids then the bid that restarts it again should a million for rebidder and 2 million for new bidder
