All I am suggesting is that when its 5 minuts till the end of the auction the field which displays the current bid, instead displays ????????? The owner of the player and the last bidder, via their bids and econ pages would know always the top amount of the bid- but all those last minute bidders would not.


Happy times for those (multiaccounters) that collude on transfers.

I have never had a problem with you but that was a bizarre and aggressive post.

I guess that you can argue that both hurt other teams to a degree but when I have had tankers in my league ithas always made me happy especially while the cup is on so that I can have one easy game a week.

Day traders directly hurt others in many clear and obvious ones but I will also give you a less well known example. I am the India U21 coach and we have saved a lot of players from being lost by adding them to the team and sending them into free agency, over the three seasons it is well more than 100 players. A big percentage of them maybe around 1/4 get bought by day traders who buy cheap, list high don't train and because the 18 year olds don't cost much on a weekly basis they can happily wait a few weeks until they get a bite for their inflated prices. From the U21 NT point of view they have killed our player. Missing out of several weeks of training while they are 18 probably means that they wont make the team and if they do they will obviously not be as good as they could have been.

As for tanking, it sucks. It is soul destroying and boring. The only thing I have to look forward to each week is the training update and the knowledge that I can train my three young guys however I want. Don't do it.

I don't know if you saw the post where I said the salary floor should be greatly raised to prevent people doing exactly what I am doing.

I have been shopping constantly for a SF for the last few weeks so I am spending hours each week looking at the TL myself anyway. Maybe I should be day trading while I am doing nothing else this season anyway.

People that are mad out daytraders, sound like grumpy old men.

Hell 1 of the people trying change how bidding is done, went around telling people that was the only way to succeed in the game, and that training wasn't worth while for them. Now they want to change how its done, or why its done. Let it be.

Daytradeing isn't a problem, unless it hedges on your revenue generating, from daytrading. Which if your not a daytrader, its not.
