it's unfortunate that you've made a bummer bid that might damage your finances. I can understand why you would wish for a withdrawal option for your bids. as a newcomer to BB myself I also understand how you feel in regards to navigating the site. It is confusing at times.

Unfortunately, what's done is done. Hopefully it won't be something that will hurt your team so badly that they will go bankrupt. If it's that bad, you could relist the players and try and recoup the money that you lost. the good thing is that you've learned from your mistake and won't overpay on a player ever again :)

Hopefully you and I will get used to the site and the game and be able to go to the tops of our leagues quickly :)

Cheers!

Ya, it didn't damage me to much. And I've re-listed the player. So it's all good, but it's nice to hear from another newcomer! Thanks mate, cheers!

LOL...this thread is hilarious.

You don't understand why withdrawing a bid in an auction is not allowed? Name one, ONE, other example in any context where bid withdrawals in an auction are permitted? This has nothing to do with BB. ebay? nope. Sotheby's? nope. Foreclosed houses? nope. This is a game dealing more with strategy than basketball and your outlook is not so good.

I'm pretty sure in the NBA when you make a bid you can withdraw it......

And after all this is a basketball game isn't it?

These are auction bids, not contract offers. Huge difference.

Well since it's a basketball oriented game may I suggest changing it to contract offers?

I'd suggest playing the game for a few months before you start suggesting major changes.

And I suggest that you open a dictionary and search the definition of "suggestion".

The length of time I've been on here is irrelevant because suggestions are up for discussion. My suggestion is an idea and if there are enough arguments against it then it can be dropped. Simple as that.
