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 around $350 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.

Multi-team card rules:

1) If a Mulitple player card involves a owned team and a drafted team (s), the owned team gets the card.
2) Multiple player cards go to the member who gets least amount of Autos & Gued from his owned team. Member must own the team that is part of the multiple player card. Only owned teams will be part of the evaluation.
3) Multiple player cards Tie Breaker - Includes owned team serial numbered cards are counted along with the autos & game used cards, from their owned team.

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.

With so many great products out, and with us heading to the end of the 2012 draft class products, I'd like to propose...

The infamous double-break.

$50 per slot, and $700ish in boxes. With Contenders, SP Authentic, Prizm, Magic and more that are out, it would give us plenty to work with. BUT, we won't do so without a very large majority of the breakers in agreement.

So... thoughts, gentlemen?

In, and fine with double.. Just dont like any of those products to be honest

You don't like Contenders?? That's a bit surprising, to be honest.

What would folks like to see, product-wise?

Hmm sorry just can't do a double break

Like the format the way it is now. Just keep the $25 breaks month in and month out.

Boston5761 - Just to be clear, this wouldn't be a permanent deal. We occasionally double up when there are a lot of good products to break.

That being said, it still won't be done at all without support from the group as a whole, so this may not fly at all this time around.

I'm in whatever the group decides. Moving back to Dolphins as my 2nd slot.

In and I would prefer the normal break.

Same here

Well that pretty much settles that. Normal break it is! Box ideas coming shortly.

In with #3

You know, it's always funny to me when someone else thinks up an option, and I end up voting for it. You'd think that I'd come up with an option I like best, right? Apparently not!

I'll go for option 5, and I'm adding it to the list with Totally Certified.

If a spot opens, lemme know.

sahetu - The spots listed as "2nd slot" are actually available for new members if you'd like to join us.

Your inbox is full, by the way. If you'd like, clear it out a bit and we can chat about it!

So, we have a new member!

sahetu, the Wax Wombat himself, will be joining us with the Bills. Perhaps Geno Smith's new team shortly? We shall see!

This unfortunately means that one of our 2nd slot spots has to be surrendered. I'll be doing our standard triple-randomization to see who that will be.

There were 2 items in your list. Here they are in random order:

19th Century Indiana Jones (2nd slot)
Takeobeavis (2nd slot)

Sorry, Indy. The Dolphins are going back to the draft pool for now.

Glad to be aboard. I like option 2 on that list... Looks diverse.

With our new member, still 4 votes to go.

Two votes left and this is still undecided. VERY close, though. Two votes for option 5 seal it, with tie going to the breaker. A vote for anything else makes it option 2.

Imo, it should have been #3, but since thats a wasted vote and I cant stand the thought of 4 or 5, I'll vote 2 for the Strata and Prestige.

And with that, option 2 is our winner this month.

Option 1: 1
Option 2: 7
Option 3: 1
Option 4: 1
Option 5: 4

I'll vote 5 just cause it doesn't mater.

I'm in with Packers.

Since I had a couple coupons that were expiring soon, and just went ahead and placed the order for this one. Could be another early break if we pay and draft earlier than the deadline.

All boxes should be in by the end of the week! We'll be ready for breaking whenever payments and the draft are done.

Feeling me some birthday mojo in this break

Updated with received payments. Keep 'em coming!

Boxes are IN! It's just a matter of payment and drafting now!
