all auctions should be as with the real thing in the real world. With one auction where every one can see every one else bidding. The player being sold should be valued before hand by Nordeus with a top and bottom valuation. and it should be done as a blind auction where every player first bids what he values the player at. those blind bids are opened and the top 5 or 3 bidders move forward to another blind bid. the bids are opened and the top three if 5 in the previous round move forward. the process is then repeated until we are down to 2 bidders. At this point the highest bid is revealed to the under bidder and he gets one chance to up his valuation of the player and bid accordingly. If his bid is then the highest the bid is then re-offered back to the other bidder in order to increase his bid.
The highest bid after this round wins. Each round of bidding costs 1 token per player. This means that if your bid was unsuccessful at any stage the most tokens you can lose is: 1 token after initial opening round, 2 tokens if you get through to round 2 (maximum 5 players), 3 tokens if you bid to get into round three (maximum 3 players) and 4 tokens if you are then the losing final under bidder.
Once the ceiling value of the player has been reached then all bidders that have bid the above highest possible amount based on valuation ( during any of the auction levels) should then be put into a theoretical hat and the players theoretical agent should decide.
Just as in the real world not all players go to the club with most money but to play for his boyhood heroes. Example when Alan shearer turned down Man Utd to play for Newcastle.. This will add an element of excitement to the auctions as you wont know if you have been successful until the official announcement is released to say that so an so player has just signed for so and so team.
Well that's my idea what do people think?
