Following the monumental failure of my schoolyard picking game I have come up with this idea for a e-bay style auction game which will see all squads completed before the England game tonight.

Rules (please read carefully)

1. Only sign up for this game if you are going to be online from now until the England game tonight

2. Each club will be given a budget of £800 million from this you should aim to build a squad of 22 and a manager, you will be allowed to buy as many players as you like but if you fail to buy 22 players or run out of cash before you get 22 players I will complete your squad for you with players who are out of contract i.e not very good.

3. You can bid for as many players as you like by sending me a PM with the players name and your MAXIMUM bid for the player's.

4. At the end of the auction which will last for 1 hour the two highest bidders for a player bid say £12.4 million and £15.6 million the person who bid £15.6 million would get the player for £12.5 million.

5. You can bid for any player or manager on FM10 but after you send me a PM with your bids you must list the players and manager(s) you have bid for (not how much you have bid for them though) on this thread to allow other people to bid on them.

6. If you are the only bidder for a player you will get him for £1 million

7. The first auction will end 1 hour after the 20th person signs up for the game

Finally if you want to enter this game please post the following details:

This will be another fail, and if i joined i would just bid £800m for each player then it would just go £1m above the last vote, that way, i would win everyone:S

Yes you could do but lets say somebody else bid £750 million for a player you would then have to pay £750.1 million for that player and you would be screwed, you have got to use some common sense

your in mate, start bidding, i would like to do one like that but I got fed up with people complaining about how I was doing it mate
 
you should do this on an msn convo, and each person bids and it goes up like an ebay bid
 
there would only need a few changes and it could work very well ;)

cheers mate if anyone else bids on these players you dont need to list them again, you just need to list any additional players you bid on

That isn't how ebay works.. In eBay you make a 'highest bid' on an item but it won't show anybody else your highest bid so nobody would know. For example:

I the minimum price is £1 for something
I put a maximum bid of £10
You offer £9
I still outbid you but now I the fee rises to £9
And the bidding continues until the auction ends
At any time you I can update my highest bid if I'm worried of getting outbid

So if you wait to the last minute trying to outbid everyone you will fail as how could you possibly guess the highest bid? Not that I actually want to be a part of this I just don't see why you are taking the **** before it's even had a chance to start..

EDIT: I don't actually understand the rules he has set but that definitely isn't how an eBay auction works XD
