Brenty92 & mcandrew003 Present: The Rapid Fire Club Tycoon!

Hello Vibe! I hope you are all well today and ready for a new community event! 

A few days ago, the legendary @Ashez gave me permission to post an updated version of his old community games, the FMMVibe Player Bidding War, which is based off the hit TV Show Storage Hunters. Upon recieveing the offer, I took it to my good friend Brenty92, as we were brainstorming ideas for an event at the time, and we revamped the challenge to bring you what you see today! I suggest you read the original event first so you get an idea on the concept and how it takes place. 

You are all aspiring club owners, and after the financial crisis of 2016 all clubs have had their owners relinquished and are up for grabs. With a budget of 100 Million, you all attend a club auction where there is a surprise twist. The auction was being lead by Storage Hunters host Sean Kelly! He leads you to the first lot, where there are hidden clues inside about the club. 

The Lowdown/Rules:

- You have a 100 Million budget. This will go up and down depending on how much you bid for a club, and if the clubs value is more or less.

- All club values have been pre-set by your 2 hosts, myself and @Brenty92

- You can place a bid on any lot, but do you risk a big chunk of your budget or bid low and snatch a bargain? You will only lose/gain money if you win the lot, so if you bid big but don't win don't worry!

- To enter, simply bid! We would love to know the initial interest though, so make sure to let us know if you are interested. 

- There will be 2 Leaderboards. The amount of clubs you own, and the money you have. 

- We will give a maximum of 2 clues per lot. Remember, it can be any of the 138 clubs in England. It could even be a non-league club  We are going to be very sneaky with the clues aswell, so make sure to use your initiative.

- Only bids in multiples of 500K to make it easier, for example 500K, 1Million, 1.5 Million etc....

 

So, remember to let us know if you are taking part! You can bid at any time, even if you haven't bid before. Feel free to leave questions, comments and feedback, and look out for the first lot which will be in a few minutes!

Would love to take part!

Excellent! Thanks for being our first, the first lot will be up soon when I hear off Brenty.

[mcandrew003]

Lot 1

A former Barclays Premier League club, this team won a domestic cup in the last few years which made the fans go crazy!

We encourage you to guess, but remember to bid! Anybody can bid, it will start at 500K. Bid as high as you like. 

Anybody can bid! 

[mcandrew003]

Come on lads, get involved! Somebody has to buy the bin 

Good guess @Risheek, but it's not Wigan. Who knows, they might still be in the PL....

[BatiGoal]

Swansea.

Put me down on 1M

Oh god Leicester, oh god. Gotta think abt it  

Not Leicester, but good thinking. Read the clue carefully, am I trying to throw you off?

Swansea.

Put me down on 1M

And Bati starts off the bidding at 1 Million Pounds for this clear former heavyweight. Not Swansea though. Anybody care to Rival him for this clear 'Bargain'

No interest

Standing by your decision. I like it, will serve you well in the next few lots. Or will it.... 

Come on lads, place your bids! This competition is for fun and it literally takes seconds to read the riddle/clue and leave a bid based on your gut instinct. Please get involved as it's a fun concept I feel and we would love a bidding war and maybe some discussion between you on who you think it is, maybe some trash talk

Throwing people off is the better tactic.

Whoa! 

Rocket bursts out of the blocks with our highest bid of £5 Million. It seems unlikely anybody will pay any more than that, so the lot will be revealed soon.
