we've decided that every manager will be awarded an extra 25 Nohhams. This was a neccessary change, as 5/6 managers were in financial difficulty after large bids on T3-T6 players

That is a shame, would be much cooler if you just let them play understaffed + some point punishment for messing up. Alternatively, let them take a loan/sponsor somehow. (like, give them some requirements to meet) Right now they just got 25 Noh for free.

Basically the 1 manager who didn't overbid is now at a disadvantage.

Doesn't make much difference, QB for instance still has way more cash than the rest, which is why he dot buns so cheap, only difference is the ones who messed up early now get full rosters, but the talent level they can select is much lower.

Point is not that QB now has way more cash. Point is that QB didn’t perhaps make as high bid earlier as he would have if he had 25 noh extra then. Wheras the other managers acted as they had 25 extra

EDIT: not saying that the 25 was an unpractical sulution. Just that if i where the manager who did it right, I would be pissed thta the other 5 got out so cheply. In fact they quite argubly benefited from it relatively to a hypotetical me

Btw, I read the auction rules, but I am not sure I understood everything, for example how the hell can QB bought rakleader in that price while there were a bid with twice as high a price?

We have a sample auction sheet which explains how the process works with an example. Every manager gets to control the number of players they want to buy in each round(this can be any number from 1-8). It is another aid given to managers to ensure that they don't blow all their money on one single round, but at the same time, can bid multiple on players in case they miss their primary targets.

In the example, Lightning Revenant doesn't want Sultan Kosmitow if he manages to buy 3 players (this is because he may want to bid for another big player available in some other round.. Or he reckons that he wont have enough money if he gets too many players). So he sets the priority on Sultan as 4 and max players as 3. This essentially means that Lightning is only in contention for Sultan if he misses one of his 3 primary targets. After lightning is ruled out of the race , Sultan just goes to the next highest bidder.

Did QB really pick up both MoD and Timon92?

Lucky for QB, he and his team might stand a chance however unlikely against the feldmere chargers now :)

First place is already taken by battle island buccaneers. The feldmere chargers and treasure hunters can still fight for 2nd place however.

QB might got the players
but they don't have me

I'm a season 1 pro and I think people need to realise I'm the real deal. No gimmicks.. No shit talk.. Just stating real hard facts.

The platinum effect will boost our team by 69%

We're gonna win it and we're gonna win it in style.

Hi, I am sorry, had totally forgot about it until now... I've ridden the whole things... Damn, the work done here is just insane.

No final updates?

Round 7 is finished, the results are listed below. Sorry this update took a little longer than expected, the auction was held up a little due to Thanksgiving.

Unfortunately, 14 players weren't bought in the auction. I'd like to thank you all for signing up, you'll be automatically entered into our free agency pool. We'd like to think some of you may be bought in Season 3, so hopefully some of you will decide to sign up again.

Lineups should be submitted within the next 5 days. Try to get into contact with your manager if you haven't already.

Lineup Submission Countdown https://goo.gl/SssVwB

We've been using a discord server to organise the league, the server has public channels for our players and spectators and some managers have been using private channels to organise their team. If you want an invite PM me.

In the next few days a tournament schedule will be posted, so watch out for that.

The free players can set an league of their (our) own, RR (one or two tournaments), with some of the maps used in Manager League Season 2. Who are the players not picked?

Hasdrubal, I'm not picked but I'm interested in the tournament between the free players.

I as a player :)

I got list from the Xenophon for players who show intention to be part of Manager League, but missed opportunity due to the fact they (we) are not chosen in the teams. I will soon send you pm so we can find out which templates we will use (2-3 RR tournaments, regarding who shows will to play).

EDIT:

I sent pm to all players not included to ML season 2, with 1v1 templates as proposals.
