Leading up to Opening Day, 1 team will be posted each day with a 48 hour bidding window. Auction closing time will be posted in each thread. I will try and post each new time around the same time.
All members can participate.
Whoever has the highest bid at the closing time wins the auction.
Winning an auction means you have that team for the pool.

Whichever team wins the World Series wins 65% of the total fg, runner up wins 25%, and the team that finishes in last place in the MLB gets 10%.
The first team out of each Wildcard will receive 500fg (6th place team in the AL/NL) and the 20th place team in each league will win 250fg. These payouts will be separate from the auction pot and donated by xVitality.


All bids start at 50fg
Bids must be a minimum of 10fg higher than previous (I'd recommend more for better teams though).
When it gets into extra time, the minimum bid will be 25fg increments!

The auction will last 48 hours. If a bid is made in the final five minutes of the auction, the end of the auction will be extended an extra five minutes to allow for more bids. This timer will reset until there are no bids for 5 continuous minutes after the most recent bid.


DO NOT EDIT YOUR POST FOR ANY REASON. MAKE A NEW POST.
IF someone places a bid they are locked in to that amount.
IF someone edits their post, they owe half of their bid or half of the total winning bid to the pot. (If they refuse to pay they will become welcher tagged)
IF someone edits their post AND erases that amount or changes that amount, they will become welcher tagged.
JUST SIMPLY DO NOT EDIT YOUR POST, even if you're not bidding.

You may bid on as many teams as you'd like, but you cannot win more than 3 teams.
- If the starting bid of 50fg is not reached, I'll donate the spot to someone if they want it (I will choose), will offer to the main fans first.
- You can not PM me your maximum bid due to being offline, no invisible bids.
- No bidding with fg you do not have!

FG must be sent to xVitality at the conclusion of the auction.
Purchased teams and prices can be found in this thread

Selling/Buying teams info
- You can sell or buy a team. 5% of the PROFIT made by the seller will go to the pot.

I added in the extra winners to attract interest in all teams

E: it was also random last year with the heavy favorites near the end

ty for hosting

If you win a team and give it away, trade or sell it, does it count towards your three? Basically is it win or own thee teams?

You can bid for others, but can not have more than 3 in your possession.

Own, not win
