but they still outbidded your bid. Dont try to bend the rules here
[/quote]
But the rules state you have to quote the original bid. Nobody ever quoted my original bid. It's irrelevant. I'm not bending the rules. I'm just stating what they say.

Looks like I got a new 6"6 giant!

well if crush didnt make that bid everyone would have outbid you anyway.
[/quote]

There were at least 5 bids on Beatty after that, it was a mistake but I based my entire bidding process around him.

at a LT price lol, i got 2 guards resigned for less
[/quote]

None of them are as good as him though. Plus, I believe that Gs are much more important then what people make them out to be. There was no way I was letting him leave.

You are trying to bend the rules, and it's not going to work.

Why not? I don't have to tell anyone they didn't quote me.
[/quote]

I see what you are saying but please do not turn this game into one where people search for and find loopholes - if someone makes a mistake or something like this happens just state it.

You guys can have Beatty. I actually didn't even want him. But I left it that way to make a point, which is that you have to look to see if anyone actually quoted the original guy. There were multiple times people have told people they made an invalid bid. Even Corvus did it, and said he was too lazy. It shouldn't be that way. I looked through the pages to see the bids. I took the time to research them. I wanted to make a point. That's all.

I even told Crush about this already earlier. He was aware.

[Clutch Ravens]

I just realised I placed a winning bid on Levi Brown (I cut him ages ago) but just this minute realised he wasn't actually on the list.

What do people want to do about that?

Nah, not so much. I just wanted to make a point that people need to not rely on others to tell them they made an invalid bid. If I was, I'd demand this go to some silly vote, which I'm not. I only bid on Beatty as an initial bid. I didn't expect to win him anyway.

Yeah, but it gave me an unfair advantage in that I was probably the only person who knew he was available.

Well, what I have done in your situation is simply say "your bid is invalid" please see my bid. Or, I have also just ignored the fact that my bid wasnt quoted and go ahead and post a higher bid. That way there is no confusion.

Yeah, but how many times do we have to do that for people? Then what? Then people go and just don't care because if their bid is invalid someone will tell them anyway? That's my whole point.

This isn't about me winning Beatty. I only bid on him as a back-up to Roos. I wanted one T for a back-up. Got one, too. But my point was, I just didn't want to see people becoming lazy with it like I saw from some. That's all I'm saying.

It's not necessarily being lazy, but just a simple mistake. It's not even like he bid less than you which is where I can see a problem arising.
