In order to add you got to play the bidgame. Its retarded.

You think the bidding game is retarded, others think it's great. If you don't like the bidwars, you can always bid a high enough price right away. But no, you want to get the player cheap:) I know it must bug you, that even with your history of daytrading (and yes you are still trying to do it:D), the other teams on your league side, have not daytraded and are still better than you. Perhaps without the daytrading bonus, you can't actually play this game effectivly:)

You guys need to explain the concept of Day Trading to me.

I like the idea of enforcing a cool off time between bids, perhaps no more than one bid every 5 minutes. The incremental bids at the end get boring.

I don´t think Wolphs "blind bidding" in the last 5 minutes works, but I think he´s on the right track.

I´d leave everything as it is, just that I wouldn´t "extend" the timeout for an auction for more than 5 minutes in total at alll. So if a player sells on 9:30, he will sell no later than 9:35.
If someone else places a last second bet on him, on that last deadline, fine. No option to "react" anymore. So if you want that player, better make sure that ...

(1) you offer some "serious" money, maybe even "overpay", before the hard deadline appears.
(2) don´t take that "miniumum" raise for granted.

So for example, player X should sell on 9:30. You place a bet on him, and nothing happens, until a last second user decides to take a shot at him shortly before the deadline expires. He gets extended to 9:33, as it is now, and both teams enter a classic bidwar, just that after the deadline extended to 9:35, no more "extra time" is added. So after 9:33, everybody has to change his strategy, the forever-minimum raising stops, and people kinda have to play with open cards.

Your "solution" would only give last second bids more interest... Very bad idea in my opinion.

I find it funny, that super rich (being in the top league), always try to find short cuts to make more money.

super rich = "I don't wanna have to do a bid war. I want to buy this play for X coin, cause they are a really good value. I don't want someone else to be able to beat me out of a dollar, because they see it too. If they start a bid war, it will cut into my profits. hmph."

I'm not even a daytrader, and I don't like this suggestion. Man up, and grow a pair.
