As with all Google Doc Spreadsheets, you can either copy it to your own personal Google Doc area or download it as a Microsoft Excel (XLS) file or in an OpenOffice.org spreadsheet file. We will not accept any submissions that have not come via a Google Docs spreadsheet. Please do not download the spreadsheet if you intend to submit a buyback as your contract will be rejected immediately.

Fleet Ops

While running a mining op the mined ore, participation and ExtraISK values should be updates to provide and overview to the fleet members.

1. For fleet Ops fill in the participation sheet during the op.
2. Now follow the personal instructions below, returning to these instructions when prompted.
3. Fill in the ExtraISK tab if you have sold any salvage or modules from rats, received a cash donation, or had to pay an external freighter such as Red Frog Freight.

Personal

1. Log into your google account and go to the current version.
2. Open the file menu and select "Make a Copy" (see image to right)
3. Name it following this convention PLAYER NAME (DATE)

1. On the inventory page, fill in the appropriate values in column C for ore and/or minerals, do not worry about prices until later.
2. Update Buyback prices
   1. When ready to issue the contract to the AMC Buyback open the "Buyback" menu found at the top of the page (from any page) and select "Update Prices".
   2. If you get a warning to authorize the script, please go ahead and authorize it to allow it to update the prices.
   3. After authorizing the script click "Update Prices" again.

      (If any prices in E4 through E11 show up as 0 (zero) wait for 5 to 10 minutes and try the Update Prices again. Do NOT submit the contract if any of these are zero)

      NOTE: DO NOT press update prices after you have issued the contract as it may change values and lead to your contract being rejected.

4. Go to the top right of the spreadsheet and click on the "Share" button to open sharing settings. Change it from private to "Anyone with the link can view"
5. Issue the contract in game, remember it should be an 'Item Exchange' set to 'Private' and issued to Bruce Industries at a station within the AMC area (within 5 jumps is acceptable, beyond that contact an AMC Officer for approval).
6. In the description enter the spreadsheet key (the part of the URL between ...key= and &USP... or ...key and #gid... see image for finding the key)

Reasons for your contract to be declined

• Prices were updated and no longer match on contract and spreadsheet.
• Value and/ore quantity does not match on contract and spreadsheet.
• Contract Station is more then 5 jumps away from the Homestation without AMC Officer approval.
• Submission did not come via a Google Docs spreadsheet

AMC Buyback Best Practices

The best practices keep the Buyback volunteers happy and keep your payback waiting time to a minimum:

• Make sure that when you submit your buyback form that a link to your buyback spread sheet is included
• Only 1 contract per person, per day.
• If refining yourself, do not add the extra unrefined ore to the contract, minerals only please
• Do not create a contract for ore/minerals inside of a container
