Sorry for being MIA.
Hopefully my absence did not screw anyone up. Things didn't quite work out with the internet and being on the road. Hopefully things will work better on the return trip.

Moore claimed.

Jose Mendez - 0.50

NEIL ROBINSON

I opened with .75

10 passes or NOBIDS (PKB)

Jet bid .75 which I believe is an illegal bid
(feel a little bad for jet)

(excerpt from rules)
[quote:309184e9fc]Bidding works like this:
A player is nominated with a minimum bid posted to this board. The minimum bid must be at least $500K or 10% of the player's highest Strat value, whichever is greatest. [b:309184e9fc]The remaining 11 managers will PM a higher bid or a pass to the owne[/b:309184e9fc]r[/quote:309184e9fc]

So I believe Neil is mine, will wait for confirmation from Hackra til I nominate a new player.

[jet40]

Don't feel bad at all. My screwup. He's yours, the rules clearly state ' [b:cc0e2405eb]higher bid or pass'[/b:cc0e2405eb]

[gorshar]

Yup, illegal bid.

[hackra]

[quote:59bf6f3610="gorshar"]Yup, illegal bid.[/quote:59bf6f3610]
There was this proviso if you felt really bad about it-

[quote:59bf6f3610]If you place an invalid bid, i.e. more than you can afford, the bid is ignored and the nominating owner who received your bid is not obligated to tell you your bid is no good, but it's always nice to do so, anyway. (You may correct such a misbid if you do so prior to the close of the auction)

[/quote:59bf6f3610]
:twisted:

but now that the auction was closed, Neil Robinson belongs to litangel

new hitter please (You have 14 now, so please defer or wait if you have a Winfield bid in)

[hackra]

11 passes

I opened at 0.52...he's mine.
