16 Members. You pick your team. The 16 remaining teams will be picked by a draft held each month.

Fee is $25 a month. That buys $360-370 of hobby boxes each month for us to bust and pays for shipping & supplies.

You get all base, inserts, gu, autos, ect of your teams that is pulled from the boxes.

Duals go to the member who gets least amount of Autos & Gued from his owned team. (of course the member must own the team that is part of the dual)

Duals pt 2 - If a dual involves a owned team and a drafted team...the owned team gets the card.

Duals pt 3 - Tie - Serial Numbered cards are counted along with the autos & gued cards.

If you fail to pay by the DUE DATE, YOU will not participate in the break. Your team will be sold and your membership forfeited.

If you're interested in changing your owned team, you must do this before the draft. If you change owned teams, you will automatically be put at the bottom of the draft order for the current month.

TRANSACTIONS: Within ONE week prior to our break or soon after the break occurs, our breaker will create transactions for every member involved. Please make sure you confirm/agree on YOUR transaction thread.

FUTURE MEMBERS: Please understand that there is a waiting list. If you would like to add your name to this list, then please contact WestCoastSkinsFan . When a spot is relinquished, the 1st person off of the list is notified. Anyone who can pay the monthly fee can join. We have ZERO restrictions.

Starting things a little early as I imagine many people will be MIA for the holidays. I'm hoping to get this done and mailed, and have a little present waiting for everyone pre-Christmas.

Now did I get the teams right? I know we had some doubling-up, so I want to make sure everyone has their main team.

Thanks, Sam...I am in...

I am in as well!!

Looks like Flea is out for this month, but still wants to stick with the group as a whole.

Would anyone like to double up this month? You'll keep the Bears as an owned team and get an extra draft team for $25 more.

I'm in!!

I heard from one member who wants in with the Eagles (just waiting for a post to confirm) and a local guy who says he'll be joining the site in the morning, and he'll tentatively be with the Broncos.

Looks like we're (tentatively) full up!

As stated via PM, I am willing to assume flea's spot again this month.

I'm in! Like selection #1. I'll add in a couple bucks this month to help you with that extra $$...

Im confirmed like always
I like option #1!

I actually like option # 2 quite a bit. I've got a bit of a hot hand with Limited this year, so I'm hoping to extend the luck to all.

All in.

UD Black, Topps Unique

Im in. I like option 3

I would be willing to take Flea's spot for an extra $25.

I would also like to go with Option 1

I want some UD Black as well

as stated per pm, i will definitely take the eagles in the december break and hopefully from here on out.

thanks,

doug

I like option #2 - the patch/autos are my favorite rookie cards of the year so far.

i like option 2 best.

thanks,

doug

I'm in again.

I prefer option 1, but 3 is OK as well.

I like seeing things spread around. Limited is a very nice product, but it's far too "rookie-centric" for my blood. I like to see a nice blend of rookies, veterans & legends.

(Please don't quote the "sell sheet" on this one. I know it says one veteran hit per box, but I've seen a lot of breaks where all the hits are rookies!)

Gotta agree with bajmurray on this one.

I'd like to hit some legends. Plus, I scored that Mohamed Massaquoi patch/auto last month from Limited (good call). He is the only Browns rookie I'm interested in collecting, however, so you'll understand if I want to go in a different direction.

On another note: I didn't see option #3 when I voted and I like that idea a little better. Spread out the hits. Hopefully everybody gets one. So, yeah, I'm going to change my vote from #1 to #3.

Thanks...

I would like to retract me bid for Flea's spot. Doesn't look like I will have the extra funds!

I prefer option #1.

The votes thus far, if I'm counting correctly:

Option 1: 4
Option 2: 3
Option 3: 2

If anyone else would like Flea's spot, please post your intention by tomorrow (11/24) at midnight! Otherwise, it's all Mr. 264.

On an aside, my local friend is still waiting to get his membership approved. Anyone seen Bob?

2

I guess

Option 1: 4
Option 2: 4
Option 3: 2

Blue, I'm sure people would be open to a new option with UD Black, if you'd like to put one together. People switching is far from unheard of!

Sam, that has been an issue "new members approved". Trying to work the situation, but not sure it will happen by our break. I am sure there is quite a backlog.

Well, how should we handle this one? I've seen some breakers (I believe crpalmi) help facilitate breaks for members until they get approved. I see this guy pretty often locally, so it wouldn't hold up the draft or anything (and he's been reading the thread, so he's keeping up to date), but I don't want to do that our current members not be comfortable with it.

Thoughts?

As far as I'm concerned, if you vouch for him, that's good enough for me.

i have no problems as long as the TCC team has no problem with it.

thanks,

doug

If there is a spot open I would like in. I would like the Giants and Option 2 if I am in.

Takeobeavis - I'll keep you posted, but we MAY have it taken care of. It's just a matter of if a (soon-to-be) member can participate or not.

Any thoughts from a TCC team member?

Its all good, just pm if you need money.

I'm in and I like Option 2!

*********

Sorry for the delay guys. I'm taking the rest of the week off to catch up and get all the cards shipped.

Robert

Option 1: 4
Option 2: 5
Option 3: 2

Local guy confirmed that he wants in via phone today, so as long as you guys are okay with me relaying his messages and whatnot until he gets his membership approved, we're full-up.

FYI, he wanted to look over the team list to verify which team he wants, should be either Broncos or Giants. Any objections?

Oh, and he wants option 2.

Option 1: 4
Option 2: 6
Option 3: 2

No objection from me

I still need votes from:

bob_TCC
19th Century Indiana Jones
Maple19

Bob264, since I haven't heard from any other interested parties, the Bears are all yours this month!

Im in you change the person so did not know this was the one i was in

I like #1 and 3

mike

Option #2

Option 1: 5
Option 2: 7
Option 3: 2

With only 15 votes in play this time (due to Flea's spot being taken over), we appear to have a winner! Our box selection shall be:


Limited Overload

09 Limited - $85 (3 auto/GU)
09 Limited - $85 (3 auto/GU)
09 Limited - $85 (3 auto/GU)
09 Limited - $85 (3 auto/GU)
06 Limited - $41 (1 auto/GU)

Total - $381 (13 auto/GU total)

With this incredibly rookie-centric product list, & given that the Cowboys traded away all their early draft picks, I would like to change teams to the Giants.

bajmurray - Aye aye, captain. I'll process that tonight, unless anyone else might like to put their name in.

Let's get those payments rolling!

Payment sent. I requested a change to the Chiefs since they are open. Thanx.

19th Century - Gotcha, I have the following proposed team changes:

Indy - Bengals to Chiefs
bajmurray - Cowboys to Giants

I'll process these at midnight Eastern, randoming off any "contested" teams. Also, please remember that a team switch brings you to the bottom of the draft for a given month!

no problem! (I feel like I'm always on the bottom anyway )

is there a complete checklist of this product some where as i think the colts would also have that many rc in products

mike

i in this for a couple players of the colts only
