stability in prices means that something that should go for 50k this hour goes for 500k a different one.
This is something you can never change. TL is somewhat based on coincidence. Do the potentially interested managers have the money currently to buy the player. The fact that a player does not sell in the first 3 day listing, does not mean that he will not sell in the next 3 day listing (if the price and listing time are the same). The market changes constantly. Obviously there are better and worse times to list a player, but that's called knowing the market.
I don't understand the fuss about who can be online and who can't be. There is a limit for transfer profitability in 14 weeks. This is not a problem. A successful team needs less than one incoming transfer a month. You can sell players whenever you want. You don't have to be online at the time your player sells. Eventually even the biggest daytraders will get tired. It just is not worth the time you put into it. When they see they can not effectivly do it (not profitable) or get tired, they start to complain, how the game is boring. Yes, this games tempo is ment to be slow. Some can handle it, some can't.

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:)

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.

Zwei Dinge sind unendlich, die Dummheit und das All...

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