NBA BTTF IV - LEAGUE ID: 53356 (2 Viewers)

Let's run through this one more time since some owners seem unclear on prioritization,

You can prioritize up to three bids per day (optional). These bids will be processed first if an owner has multiple successful bids in a day. Bid prioritization only affects the order in which your bids are processed. It won't trump a higher bid by somebody else. If you don't prioritize your bids, player awards will be handled in Yahoo's order

Excluded prioritized bids, auctions will be processed in the order of the rankings, e.g. the player ranked #3 will be awarded before player #4. If an owner doesn't have enough funds available due to a player awarded earlier in the day's processing, the bid on the latter player would be invalid.
In the case of identical top $ bids, the first tiebreaker will be the amount of money remaining in budget at the time the player is processed. More=better. If both bidders have identical funds remaining, we'll go to the dice.

There's no reason to prioritize your Anthony Davis bids because he'll be processed first because of Yahoo's rankings.

You only need to add priority if you want to give preference to a players who's ranked lower by Yahoo. E.g. if you want to submit $100 bids on both Davis and Durant but want the Durant bid considered first, give the Durant bid priority.

Prioritization is completely independent of dollar amounts. You can prioritize a lower dollar bid if you want that bid to be handled first.

If you want to prioritize a bid, you gotta explicitly include that word. If you just list your bids in some weird order known only to you, TRE and I have no idea if you're implying prioritization by doing that.

This is totally unexpected and probably unprecedented but Frostillicus is the only bidder who got it right so far.

 
So, Eephus - going forward you'd like to see:

1. Davis $100

2. Steph $100 (PRIORITY #1)

etc.

Essentially, leave players in the original order provided, but put a "priority # tag" next to your priority guys?

Yeah, that would really simplify bid processing especially when we ramp up to 12 player days.

 
Still need bids from:

Arsenal

ChemX

Coyote5

Jomar

Moops

No 16

Pumpnick

Rodg12

Scoobus

Slapdash

Spartans Rule

Yo Mama

Will try to PM those that haven't gotten a bid in on Sunday as a reminder.

There's a top secret commish one to track bids in progress. Go ahead and start a public one if you want...

I'm going to copy sheets from the super secret commissioner sheet to a public one after day 1 bids are complete

So it looks like those yahoo rankings aren't really rankings but are adp list from yahoo drafts. In other words, the list keeps updating. Are we going to stick with the original list as it is in the OP? First thing I noticed is Jordan has moved ahead of Vucevic into the 3rd group. Wiggins is also now in the top 72.

(Ducks and runs away)

I wouldn't mind a final refresh on Monday if Eephus is cool with that.

I was using the Yahoo O-rank number which doesn't change.

O

 
I guess the possibility exists that everybody runs out of money or maxes out with five players before the end of the auction phase.

If this occurs, the unpicked auction players go into the pool for round 4

 
So who are the best players not available in the auction? Sounds like possibly Wiggins. I wanna know for strategy purposes but I'm too lazy to research it.

TIA

Gortat

Collison

Dieng

K. Martin

Redick

Sullinger

Covington

Jennings

I. Thomas

We're keeping the O-Rank status quo so we can shill up bidding on Kobe.

What if I want to move Durant up in priority, but not ahead of Davis? Wouldn't I still need to prioritize Davis then?

True but that's not what No. 16 was trying to do. There's no reason to give Davis #1 priority.

I'm sure I didn't do it right but I have a helluva buzz right now and came this close to forgetting about it altogether

 
I messaged everyone left except Pump (box full) and Moops because he's got it all under control.

Edit: moopsmail rec'd.
