Well, it often happens that I get disconnected for a couple of minutes. So, I think that a 5 minutes extension prevents this kind of problem (I lost once an auction on hattrick because of that).

I do not agree - there are users which do daytrading/skilltrading if they like to profit from neverending trading cycle, they have to WAIT a and GET BORED

I am confused by your response.

Wouldn't a longer extension of time increase their waiting and boredom?

on Hattrick it is 3 minutes - and we have there a LOT of DT/ST teams

here it is 5 minutes and I hope that longer wasting of a time in the market will have the positive efects against daytraders and we normal people can play this game like it should be played

buying/selling of a player for YOUR team should be an event, not fast three minutes something

I agree with your sentiment concerning daytraders, but I don't think shortening the bid time is going to increase/decrease the amount of Daytraders on BB.

IMO, daytraders have nothing better to do than sit on the TL all day anyway, regardless of the time extensions on bids. If they aren't already bored by sitting on the TL all day, then an extension of bid times isn't going to increase their boredom. I think what shortening the time will do is give DT's less time to react/bid on the players they are attempting to buy for DT purposes, especially if they are after more than 2-3 players at any given time.

Another suggestion acted upon - 3 minutes is now in effect.
