I also want to say thanks for doing this. Your dedication to the site is what makes this the best trading site around!!
Well we got our 40 hits we were expecting, don't think anyone guessed the 1st 15 picks or so, would be so hard to decide apon. Everyone loving the Jeters and the Griffey, several other /5 and /10 GU/Autos to choose from, makes those Jeter cards a little less guaranteed top 5 cards.
I have the #3 pick...so I guess I'm guaranteed a Jeter Auto if I want one. (thats actually what I was hoping for when I got a low pick, before the break)
I enjoyed watching the break. Thanks!
Now comes the hard part and the picking that may take awhile.

I wish I had gotten two picks...I was so close to getting that second one!!!
with the amount of good hits, do I need to list the parallels? or can I jusr put them into team lots and say Yankees have X inserts and X base?
I wouldnt list everything...I can imagine someone taking an insert over an auto.jersey card
It would be nice to list inserts of each team and # of base but that really would be too much work for you.
If there was only a handful of autos and the lower drafting people preferred a team lot....I would do it but this stack of inserts is BIG and most are #'d 249 and up. I think only 1 is #'d to 25
Going to create a thread with a list of cards and draft order.

It's possible, because that one purple might sell for more than one of those Gorzelanny autos
Anyone want to trade for my Clemens GU Auto /10?

Whoever ends up with the Navy Blue Derrek Lee JSY/AUTO Please contact me if it is FT.
I think it would be best to list the parallels by team (without the exact serial #, just the print run) so people know which team lots have the most loot...
Its a lot of work, I know, but it may help establish some ideas for future breaks...such as drafting teams before the break; if this was already done your work would be a lot easier! Some people might not like that idea but the less drafting and picking post-break is much quicker as well as easier for the breakmaster. It also makes the actual break a little more exciting because you know what to root for...
Of course, this is just my 2 cents...this case was amazing so many people are going to walk away very happy, had it been a more average case it would be a different story.
Generally speaking, people participating in group breaks need to understand that in order for there to be big winners there also needs to be big losers. Higher risks bring higher rewards...$30 for a chance at a case hit is a great deal and people need to understand that the $30 is only buying the chance, after that there should be no expectations.
Again, a big thanks to our tireless breakmaster! You are doing a great job and I look forward to many more group breaks to come!

Agreed on all terms. Big winners and big losers (normally, this case was an exception)
Don't know if you know VintageHeroes, but you are on the clock and there are several Tom Gorzelannys to choose from.
Are we using this thread to make picks or are we going to use another thread with a list of the hits on the first page?
He made a separate thread to make the picks...vintage needs to make his pick
