You can never bid on more than 10 players at one time.
You may draft as many as 10 players all of whom add to the total wins by your team.
Each match win by one of your players is worth 1 point and your total is the sum of all the points earned by your players.
A player's appearence in the bidding list does not guarantee the player will play in the tournament.
If you and one or more other 'coaches' have the same number of total wins, the tie is broken in favor of the team with the player(s) that advanced the farthest in the tournament. E.g., having the champion on your team means you win all tiebreakers. See Breaking Ties for a more detailed explanation.
An overbid on a player valued at $1.00 or more who is within a minute of being sold will result in one minute of time being added to all players with active bids. This is colloquially known as "The Anti 4:58 Rule".
If you add a player who is already in the list; for example, using different hyphenation, with a misspelling or otherwise erroneously the preferred course of action is you lose the amount you bid on that player and the erroneous entry is removed from the list. However, if someone else overbids you on that erroneously added player before he/she has been removed from the list, you get your money back and the forfeited money now comes from the overbidder. This is colloquially known as "The Galan Rule".
If you have 2 players with same name who are in the draw on your team that is worth 0.5 point bonus. 3 players is 1.0 points and 4 or more players is 1.5 points. This is colloquially known as "Uniting the Magni".
Some players are marked as Out. These players are believed to be out of the tournament. This list is not comprehensive. There are likely some players who will withdraw that will not show up as Out in our list.
