I really think we should start a BAT auction bingo game. . .

Bore Scoring,
IMS bearing (and other related keywords like m97, m96-05, etc.)
RMS,
etc.

double points if the comments are from folks that never actually bid on the car. . .

Current auction has already checked off bore scoring, m96-05, m97 and IMS off the list. . .

Funny that people ask about those things but not some of the more common deferred maintenance ones. . .

On with the auction, this should be a fun one to watch. . . Really curious to see if this goes for what it should or if the auction fizzles. It’s a really nice car and should hit the high end of the guesses but BaT is funny. . .

I hate being the "bad guy" all the time, but there was plenty of time for a refresh of the screen to see the more current guesses.
How does this keep happening?? I'm I missing something on how other people's computers work?? lol


Technical DQ unfortunately

Lol. IMS is guaranteed, maybe even on a .2 auction. Bore scoring is slowly making its way since they just see it in other auctions 🐑🐑🐑

Would there be a better way for us to update each of their respective guesses?

I am thinking of a database sort of like the limited edition 50th Anniversary cars have. You just add your own guess to that list and be done with it?

Well, anyway my guess for this one $61,000

Anyone who has wins and also their Mulligan remaining please make a note next to your win amount like I just did.

Having a mulligan remaining is not important enough to mess up the whole list. Don't do it.

LOL ^


But on the other hand, we really do need to keep track of them somehow.

Just one per person for a "late guess" within the 48 hour window.

No mulligan can be used for the other infections, like dropping people from the list and such./

Let's get rid of the mulligan rule altogether. It's an unnecessary complication. Replace it with the following:
"If you drop anyone when bidding you are disqualified from winning the current auction".
