[High-Lord Vin]

Earth has a winning bid on 8 people; 8 is the number of people who can join (9th go the the newbie); one of those people is me

sooooo, as of overtime, I am on team Earth; even thou overtime might kill me, I can at least say that I was extremely close to being on team Earth

[Korugar]

Well, seven is actually the number that can join. Ninth is the rookie, as you said, but first is the master/general who is already on the team.

ow DX

crush my dreams like that; ow well... we will see what happens

[Korugar]

Well, that doesn't mean you won't be on the team, since you aren't the seventh by score.

[High-Lord Vin]

no offence taking; I was mostly joking; like I said, we shall see

[Terroking]

Yeah, as of now it looks like I won't be able to get TimerClock unless I get a steal on someone higher.

I think you'll be with us with the current bids though Vin, have to wait and see.

[Korugar]

Well, if the bids end like this you'll get to pick between the bottom three, Terroking(unless the rules changed when I wasn't looking).

[Dogg]

Just wanted to point this out: On your "Bids Per Element" list, i am still in team aether. I am actually Pervepic's slave (Dog bless him for bidding on me), so i refuse to cook for anyone else. My score has gone over 40k now, that part doesn't matter tho.

btw, great stuff you got going on here, man! Keep up the good work!

Timerclock is almost small enough to qualify for the rookie spot.

- Started playing Elements less than 3 months ago - not sure how you'd know this
- Joined the forums less than 1 month ago - check
- Total number of cards is 120 or less. - 283, but maybe that req will go up?
- Total number of upgraded cards is 6 or less. - check
- Total amount of Electrum is 1,000 or less. - check

That's 3, maybe 4, out of 5.

I'm thinking the defnition of rookie might end up getting increased a little bit, as I'm not sure they'll be able to find 12 players that small who are interested. 

[High-Lord Vin]

as I see it, 1 upgraded cards counts as 30 or so cards; most  un-upped decks, even the "expensive" ones, cost less then a single upgraded card

[Dreggs]

Really hoping I can get into Team Earth too i'm in the same situation to Vin and Timer.

I would be happy to try and make myself a rookie if thats what it came to if it meant we all got in but it would mean i would have to sell/rebuy/sell/rebuy a ton of cards as someone suggested to me in chat last night. (if thats legal)

The rookie requirements do seem a bit low as i've barely been playing for 2 weeks and i'm a good bit over the criteria already.

[Skydaemon]

Ok, so I bothered to actually go through the slave market and find all the smallest players.

Here's the bottom 20 scores (and I listed 20 instead of 12, since some may have left, and you might want some choice involved as well):

As you can see, of the lowest 20 scores, just looking at electrum, only 8 meet the current criteria.  That's before looking at card counts and start times (which we know 1 of the 8, timerclock, fails on a cardcount basis as well, despite being the lowest score in the slave market).  That's at most 7, assuming they're all still around and haven't played at all since they posted.
