Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

I'm still shocked I got the new and improved 47 for only 19 points. And still upset that rtfgnow outbid me on all my favorite rookies. Still can't complain with 6 very solid teams though.

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

Yeah, I agree with Travis. The auction style was a lot more enjoyable. It also gives more freedom to the person: do they want 3 elite teams and 3 scrubs or 6 very solid teams? It does take longer and does require everyone to be at the draft, but I think it is worth it.

I'm fairly pleased with my team. 5/6 of them made eliminations in Atlanta. Only Eric has more, but I don't think he has an elite team, like 2056.

I think Barry and JackN have the two best teams, though.

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

I'm giving Indysam the nod on this one.

I'm wishing I would have bitten the bullet and bid for 222. I am very pleased with my team though.

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

I took the go big or go home approach and spent 93 on my first three picks.
There were a couple of real good teams that I thought would sneak under peoples radar but that didn't happen the way I hoped.

We will see if lack of depth hurts me.

217, 45, 111, 1741, 292 and 829.

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

I was going to go for 1 superpower, 3 under the radar, 2 whatever else I can get, and it worked out alright for me. I wish 2970 went for less, but I've got 47 for less than I expected 2970 so I can't complain.

2826 was going to be my sleeper since all they really need to do in order to be competitive at IRI is human load and / or modify their intake (they even have an autonomous that takes them close enough to a human player, so it's literally just a strategy change). But silly rtfgnow had to nab them and 2970 in the Spree of Wisconsin Rookies.

I like the auction style because it allowed for a lot of strategy discussion, closest thing I'll get to FIRST IRC :)

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

With 2826's exit from the IRI team list, rtfgnow must make another selection from the remaining list of teams.

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

How long can I procrastinate deliberate before choosing?

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

Do it long enough for me to bribe them into going again ?

I don't see why you shouldn't have all the time you need.

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

May I suggest 2199?

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

You can switch up until the Thursday of IRI, just make sure to post it here or PM me.

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

Right now I am going to take 2194.

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

I have been wrestling with this since the draft, and I am not sure what the rules are on switching teams in this league, but is it possible to drop 1732 and pick up 2199?

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

If it is possible, I would like to drop 1675 and pick up 1732.

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
 

All these changes are fine, I will update the scoring sheet.

Re: [FF]: IRI Auction League
