[USML Announce] Berliner FAAB Bids

[jhwinick at aol.com]

Rich,

The system works by evaluating the first bid in anyone's list first.? And mhy first bid was on Bay for $56.? As I understand the system, that will trump any lower bid.? It is less clear how it deals with contingent bids, but it does not disregard contingent bids before evaluating non-contingent bids.? I know that for sure.

So, my bids were $56 for Bay and then contingent bids of $56 for Nady and then Griffey.

Since all were tied to waiving the same player, I think (but am not sure), that if I lost out on Bay, then my $56 bid on Nady would be considered and so forth.

Did anyone bid higher than $56 for Bay?

Jeff

Does anyone understand what happened on the system with the bidding for Bay?

?

It looks to me like the system thinks he won't be auctioned off until 8/9.

?

Also, I'm confused how the system and our rules work with bids like Jeff's below?

?

Does his $56 on Bay trump my lower bid or does my bid beat his because it wasn't at all contingent on the outcome of the Tex auction?

?

Did anyone have higher bids on Bay?

?

Do we have a similar issue with Griffey?? Did nobody bid on him?

?
