if you are looking to nominate, but it's not your turn, just email one of us with a "safe" starting bid on a player, and maybe even a backup player.

One last thing. We probably need a starting time for the bids as well. How about starting the bids at 10:30 eastern on Wednesday evening? That way when we get to $1 and $2 players we will all have the same chance of increasing the bid by $1. This shouldn't be an issue with the higher dollar players but it might come into play later.

Wayne That is a prudent suggestion, especially when we get towards the latter parts of this auctiom
