where are you pakman?

Sorry dude. My wife just got back from travel and I had the 2 kiddos for the entire week. Needless to say, it was a rough week. But she's back and I'm FREE!!!

I will make a decision about this break soon. We may have to axe it or switch it to something more traditional. How about a straight team break?

I will take 2 if it helps.

You meant 2 spots total. I had you down from your earlier post.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE!!!

- We have 21 spots still open.
- Case price has gone up. BO may cut us a deal, but the list price is $805. That means the slot pricing will go up. Roughly $3.35 more per slot. If this changes things, I won't be offended if you back out.
- I'm debating going to 1 case which will reduce the number of slots we need to fill. I hate this idea because the more cases we open, the better our chances of landing a nice card. Doing only 1 case will greatly reduce our odds. Once again, I'd like to know who would be backing out if we reduced this break to 1 case. It will drop the number of slots from 48 to 26. But everyone would still be getting 2 picks in the snake draft.

I'll give it a few more days to fill in the final 21 spots. If not, let's drop to 1 case. Let me know if this will change your mind about participating in this break.

slot 27 pls

[lilkeithw]

in for one since this is the first club break---doesnt matter slot number

[mrmike79]

Should we make this a team break? Either draft or random is fine by me. Looks like it would be pretty close to filling this way.

[dhcollecting]

Put me down for 1, as long as the price stays under $40 a spot because some sites have this at $875 a case already!

[spookowl1004]

I'll take slots #41,42,43!!

Trust me...I was trying to avoid this. We'll see what price BO gives us. They are currently OOS. If the price is too high, everyone will have the chance to back out. I won't be offended. But do keep in mind that 1 slot in this draft is actually 2 picks. A $40 slot is actually $20 per pick. Draft strategy will be important.

I know...for a second there, I thought I was going to have to cancel this one.

FYI, If the case comes out to $850+, the slot pricing will jump significantly.

1st slot = $40ish
2nd slot = $38ish

This may make some people want to bail out of this break. One idea I have to get the price down is to allow people to split their draft pick. That means the cost will come out to $22ish per shared slot. If this is something you are interested it, just let me know. In case you are wondering, "how do we know who gets to pick in the 1st round and who gets pick in the 2nd round?" I've got a solution for that. After the mod has random the draft list, if you are sharing a draft slot and you land on an EVEN draft pick number, the 1st person gets the 1st round pick and the 2nd person gets the 2nd round pick. But if you land on an ODD draft pick number, the 1st person will get the 2nd round pick and the 2nd person will get the 1st round pick. Sound fair? Let me know if you need me to clarify how this would work. Bottom line, if $40 is too much for 1 slot, we can share slots for $22 per person.
