Secret to Blind Bid Auction Bidding

 How to Bid in Blind Bid Auction prior to 10am Thursdays?

1) Do Not Cut the Same Player in More than One Bid in an auction
If you do this, there is no Guaruntee which Bid the System will Read or what will happen.

Example Below of a MISTAKE of Cutting Same player in more than one bid.

In this case, Vizquel is listed as the player to be waived or cut in each version of the bid and this will screw everything up!:

Bbid 1- Waive Vizquel: Add: Carlton 23, Schmidt, 13, Bowa 4 *

Bid 2- Waive Vizquel: Add: Schmidt 13, Bowa 4, McBride 2.

If you submit Vizquel as the player to be waived in two separte bids, the system may choose bid 1 or bid 2 to execute, depending on what other owners do. In any event, it screws things up.

The SOLUTION :

Only Use Vizquel as the player to waive in ONE BID ONLY, and if there are multiple players you would accept when you cut Vizquel, ADD THEM ALL into ONE BID.
The trick on site:

Keep choosing players to add WITHOUT clicking SUBMIT, until all your choices for the Vizquel cut are in
Then hit Submit.

EXAMPLE OF CORRECT CONDITIONAL BID:
bid 1 - Waive Vizquel (just click him once): Add Carlton 23, Schmidt 13, Bowa 4, McBride 3. (submit now)
bid 2 - Waive Ripken: Add Schmidt 13, Bowa 4, McBride 2, Griffey 1 (submit now).
