There should be a minimum $250 either way. I think it's bush league to do that, bad form and all.

OMG - you said "bored", couple that with the listed "scores", and now I'm very worried and not sure I can or should continue in this game. Thanks Groove - you ruined it

I think BAT scales the bid increment. Something like $100 below 10K and $250 up to 50K ,$500 to 100K and $1000 past there.
So $250 should work for most 997s.

he was referring to the guesses here to win the game, not bidding.

I agree we need to keep it within about $250 or so. At this point I think it’s just more a gentleman‘s agreement and nobody’s trying to undercut someone like that.

anyway due to work again I missed the cut off for the third time in like the last four auctions so I’m trying to give you guys plenty of chances to catch up. Lol

Not sure the rules, do you allow newbies or only dues paying members?

Anybody is welcome to join in, the only problem is it’s past the 48 hour rule. I missed it as well this time due to work and being careless with my time. The next auction you are certainly welcome to join in. We just have to make your guest prior to 48 hours from the auction ending.

Oh man, so many rules! I’d prob lost anyway, think it’ll be 35 at most and I’m usually wrong. I’ll try to pay attention to next cycle, thanks.

Rules aren't too bad for this game. Just read the first page of the thread, and you'll know what to do.

Oh boy, about 10 mins to go, and no where near yet (at $34,250 still). Usually those last 2 mins, which can go on, is where the real value kicks up. Fingers crossed!
