    Done, sorry didn't realise that. I think I was too concerned with multiplying by 0.8 and 0.2 and then adding and doing some more multiplying to see that I was within the 20% rule. :o

    Can I go after him again or have I lost any rights to offer a contract?

    Nope you and Pudsy cant both re-bid once they are released.

    Your cap hits are pretty small anyway


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,786 ✭✭✭✭Pudsy33


    What will the cap hit be?


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,658 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    2.4 million for you Pudsy
    So you will take a 600K hit this season and then a 1.8 million hit next season (last season)

    2 Million for dave
    400K this year and then 1.6 million in the final season

    We can't re bid? If they make it through the re signing phase can we pick them up in week 1?

    No you have to release him first, you can then re-bid straightaway.

    Am I being retarded? Do we not just have to offer them say 5 million in wages and then divide that by 5 and the max bonus is 1 million?

    I took it as, Wages - 4m, Bonus - 1m (20% of total) => Total 5m.

    Are some people doing, Wages -5m, Bonus - 1m (20% of Basic Wage) => Total 6m?

    I do this, it's 20%

    I thought everyone was doing this. Bonus is money is on top of the salary. It's a bonus so it's extra

    Yep, thats right! :D

    When I was offering my players last night I was going by the 1 mill in wages and then 200k in bonuses which i thought is what we always used.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,658 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    Can you all not just use my spreadsheet!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,749 ✭✭✭Raoul


    You haven't made it open to edit by other people.

    Also, anyone know if you can look at what contract you offered people without cancelling it?

    We should be offering wages and then dividing by 4 to add the bonus!

    Edit - I need to go and offer my guys bigger bonuses!!

    Yeah, you can open the bid to increase the offer.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,658 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    it should be working, ive logged out and i can still edit the sheet.

    You can go into the contract, just click increase offer, then just cancel out and the offer stays the same

    Dividing by 4 gives you 25% not 20%.
    You need to divide by 5

    Divide the wages by 4 then add that to get your total!

    Wages 4 million plus bonus of 1 million = 5 million total.

    Edit - Glad I pretended to be confused to highlight some problems people might be having :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,880 ✭✭✭✭Rock Lesnar


    My method: give them contract, go to my negotiations, see what i offered total contract wise and see what 20% of it is, for the Bonus.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,553 ✭✭✭madalig12


    I just offer a small bonus, I can't be arsed working this all out,
