Unfortunately, it seems to be time to disperse The Hidden Dragons. I am saddened by this, as I like the dude, but the majority seem to feel his activity and level of keeping up with the most basic ongoings of the site are a little too lacking, and his elite fighters would be better served on active teams instead.
Auction Format
1) Number your preference. Every bid-on fighter must have a unique number beside their name. They should also be on a separate line, one bid per line.
2) Include records (as of the most updated official roster page at the time of your bid)
3) Clearly define who you are bidding for who (who you WANT followed by who you are bidding)
4) I don't want any more "whoever is better" bids. You choose. You have the same tools I do. If unsure, check their fight histories.
Format Example:
1) Andrei Arlovski (64-51) HW for Anderson Silva (119-34) MW
2) Mackenzie Dern (6-8) FW for Gina Carano (106-26) BW
3) Gray Maynard (38-47) LW for Demetrious Johnson (39-42) LW
4) Matt Hughes (53-53) WW for Anderson Silva (119-34) MW
5) Leslie Smith (23-33) FW for Gina Carano (106-26) BW
Updated rosters can be found here.
Usual disclaimer:
I have now posted a more detailed write-up about how Weighted Auctions actually works. You can find that here.
In a nutshell, bid the absolute best fighter on your team that you are willing to give up for the fighter that you want. I don't want to hear any more, "If I had have known...I would have bid...." bullshit. BID. YOUR. BEST.
