I made a math error

 

[Koivu777]

Even with 100M it's still pretty difficult, to try and ice the best team, when some players are obviously overpaid just to secure them. It will be cool to kind of see what the 2nd top bid of each player was just to see how much lower the winner could've went.

Pretty crazy to when some guys get no offers. For example, I was going to offer Couture, but said someone will probably go higher so I took my bid out. Though, I would've been closer to the cap as well.

25M for 13 spots

Josi - Jones

Best top 4 in this game

Some people did not heed my advice and are now busting and it is delicious.

By the way, if you make an offer, and it is tied, I will ask each player to re-bid. If neither player ups their offer, I will flip a coin to see who gets stuck with them. You made the offer so prepare to deal with the consequences.

 

[hockeynorth]

Tied on Nylander but I don't want him anymore so whoever else it is you can have him

Honestly with the way it was going I just bid on a bunch because I wasn't getting anyone. Turns out I won a ton of those bids.

Yeah, up to each person to decide how to do it. No problem. Just half the people have no money now so should be interesting

Shit. I knew I screwed up not bidding on Rask at his cap hit.
