War #6 - Rules

Also, either the table doesn't work properly, or I don't fully understand how it works.
I see several player that are on a teams "losing bids" even though there are no other bidders and there are empty places left in the team. Why?

Changed to "Not in team bids" for more understandability (see the + and the *)

It would be nice to have the blind bids added to the player application posts. I know it is a lot of work -- unless somehow automated / programmed to add them from the table, but it would help to avoid confusions and invalid bids (as I've seen some posted already) that originate from the generals overlooking a not listed blind bid.

I am pretty sure I bidded 8 players... so let say the member i bid on is bidded higher by other generals and yet not in his team, I thought by default he should be in my team?

I would agree with this statement given the fact that all bids were made public.

What glenn said. Otherwise you will be promoting trollbidding, which sucks.

EDIT: Misunderstood what he was trying to say, never mind.

Yes.

My understanding is that Glenn's complaint is about the fact, that Auction Status table does not list his (and any other General's) non-winning blind bids.

E.g. the table lists that fire has a total of 5 bids only, instead of the 8. This is an inconsistency between blind and open bids. All the open bids are listed, even if higher bids exists, those non-winning bids are listed under the "not in team" section of the table. However, the same is not done for the non-winning blind bids. From the blind auction, only the highest bids got entered into the table.

This might have been intentional by the WMs, but it is unclear to players and generals.

[hainkarga]

Why don't you just quote and post the blind bid PMs ?

[Avenger]

His blind bid on Absol might even be relevant if Absol doesn't make it into team .

[Jenkar]

No, because then he falls into darkness. (kicking out sko on his way)

The non-max blind bids haven't been posted because of the problem of ties (the sheet goes on double recursion already, adding tiebreakers for specific blinds would probably make it laggy).
