Yeah, seems like it'd be more fun/strategic to be able to see what you have to bid for any given nation. It'd be nice if there was a way to try and get a weaker nation with a bonus rather than basically picking whoever you think is the strongest which is essentially what we did last time. Wouldn't really need to be unwieldy.

1) Lock the player list so we've got a set number of bidders.
2) Everyone post bids for the nations they'd like to play, in order of preference (ie 1st choice: LA Ermor with a 5% discount, 2nd choice: LA Mictlan no discount, etc)
3) Update the first post with the current high bidder, if one person is the high bidder for more than one nation only his highest preference bid is counted
4) Anyone not a high bidder needs to bid again, possibly dislodging a current high bidder, possibly bidding (cheaply) on a nation nobody has bid for yet. Since there is a set number of bidders which is less than or equal to the number of nations there will always be unclaimed nations to bid for and pick up cheaply.
5) You can't rebid unless you're not a current high bidder (to make sure this finishes relatively quickly)

We'll want a minimum bid (maximum bonus) so that the last couple picks don't get ridiculous bonuses.

This would prevent anybody from getting a bonus for a strong nation because nobody realized nobody was picking them.
