Is there any word on the NL $650 Auction? I see there is still only 4 teams...is it panic time yet?

[/QUOTE]i agree, i cant believe the lack of interest for auctions leagues in the NFBC this year...most leagues outside of vegas are not filled..not even close...I am an avid auction leaguer who believes the serpentine drafts ARE FOR BEGINNERS ....as the "WORLD SERIES OF POKER" of fantasy, the NFBC should look to embrace the more advanced style of fantasy......its is obvious that the $100,000 potential prize dominates the decision making process in choosing which league type...i think a larger overall prize for a national champion would entice more players to auction...those who have done auction before are usually hooked!

GREG, is there a way to link same type auction leagues for a national champion like the big event? for instance top team in all mixed leagues gets $20,000.....is that feasible to do?

Okay, here's a quick update on the New York-Chicago National League Auctions. We just got three signups in a matter of 10 minutes this afternoon and now have 13 owners for that league. That one is full. So the only spot we have open in New York and Chicago auction leagues is the combined Mixed Auction League. We have 14 owners for that, leaving us with one open spot.

Thanks guys. Obviously we wish we would have had full leagues in each city, but this will work out well. Two city teleconference auctions can work well.

Now, let's fill up that Las Vegas NL Auction League at $650. We have at least six more spots to fill there.
