Bidding rules are Very strict.. If a player. Is worth 75k and I just post 275k [my best offer ]. The Gm can ban me for money transferring . So, I think with last second bidding a lot are trying to stay in a near zone of their paying limits without being banned/fined, In error

No GM can ban you for overbidding unless it's blatantly obvious you are deliberately transferring money. There are situations where a player worth roughly 75k might be worth 275k to some teams.

Yes that is very very true, but it best not to even enter that releam of rule gamble with that notion . Safer just bid at last minutes.

If its too high[over priced], the Gm will adjust accordingly with a harmless notice. That's better than a ban / fine. A last minute "bid war" is a somewhat safe grey area in my opinion.

Like you said he might worth be that that price or effort to a manager. Or team to attain.

You don't get banned,fined or warned for overpaying for a player regardless of when you bid or how many others bid also. You only get punished if it is proven that you did so to transfer money from one account to another.

I'm with Evaristo on this one. Fair enough wait until it gets down to the last three minutes, that's just smart. But to then extend it inside of the last three minutes? That's pathetic and rude in my eyes. And as he points out, it *may* exasperate the other bidder (the only potential upside I'm aware of), but it also extends the auction to the point where it often attracts other interested bidders who might have missed the auction had it not extended.

And as for the next guys point - I think it was coach lambini? - don't ever PM me if I'm in a bidwar with you. That's disrespectful to me, to the seller, and next to cheating in my eyes. If you wanna do it then whatever, just don't try and involve me in it. The harder you try to force me out, the more likely I am to continue bidding. If I want someone, I bid on them. If you want them too, then outbid me, don't try and cheat the market and deprive the seller of what they deserve.

If everyone had the common decency and courtesy to bid as soon as the final three minute window opens, and the respect to let the market play itself out and not try to privately tamper with it, it would run a LOT better I feel.

My point is why take such risk? If a player is worth 75k and you put 350k. The Gm feeling on that matter is the law. You really want appeal a Gm word in that matter, good luck. Why risk that assumption on their end ? It does happen all the times fine and bans, may be not too you because you know your player prices but it does happen to those who don't and over assume[overbid]. Its to just best to bid at time limit.
