Agreed.
In fact, I think Warriors just did something like that, adding an extra number to Turiaf's contract proposal.

I can see something like if someome raises by more than say 20% and $20,000 that they might be able to do make a corrected bid, but not a complete withdrawal. Perhaps you could have 5 minutes to do that as long as there is more than an hour remaining. So at worst there is a short period in which a higher bid would show up and then be reduced.

And then perhaps in the last hour, limit raises to 20% or $20,000, so there is no need for correction. This would be a minor annoyance to someone who want to raise the price quicker.

or maybe like foxtrick handels it in HT, that you cann't raise with factor 10 ... So if you want bid 100.000$ on a player who stands at 1$ you ahd to first raise to 10.000$ and the bid 100.000$.

The bad think of withdrawal bids, is that they effekt other bids, and in most case works pretty bad in the last minutes of the auction(so it is forbidden in the must propose their when the proctetion is needed must because the most bids come)

That's a built in Hattrick function. At least I have it and I use IE.

This would cause so many problems, I can't begin to list them all...

1. people placing huge bids on players to eliminate interest from the player, withdrawing the bid later and putting a much smaller bid on it.

2. people spending money from one of their "for sale" players, only to find out they didn't have that money.

3. people bidding on rival's players to eliminate interest and then just withdrawing bids to screw them over.

etc.

for number 1

i think its going to be added work for the BB, im sure anyone who did this would result into a ban as to prevent it!

for number 2

eventually they cant win the bid right?

for number 3

this is a bit complex, i think its best to have a way of checking this. or else its going to be another screw loose on the system of how we do things.,



actually by having withdrawal it gives a lot of loopholes to patch! and added work for gm's and bb's
