i had no money: while rikki had 2.5 k and peruano got 7k. Peruano auctioned all 3 greens and rikki didnt bid at all for all 3 greens and i had no money to bid. Hope the mod look at it and give me a justice.

i do not understand please give more detail.
Auctioning your property is always allowed, and no one has to bid on it, it is their choice. And if there were only 3 of you in game and player one auctioned green, player two didnt bid and you player 3 didnt have money, then player one would have kept the property. _________________ CYN

Sorry cyn, it is not auctioning, what i mean is that peruano is saving money to buy the green, only green left in the board without anyone buying, peruano had 7k cash in hand and rikki had 2.5 k cash in hand, i have no money. when peruano auctioned every green rikki didnt bid it, he made persuano easy buying. He didnt bid at all any greens.
Hope you understand, please have a look on the log of the game. |

No one is required to bid on anything. If you dont like props going for cheap then you need to save money to block them. It isnt very fair for you to be able to buy whatever you want and then expect someone else to block another person because they kept their money _________________ CYN

Thats a game plan... if the p2 had outbid him on green and p3 with 7000 left it with P2 then P3 could buy somin else more easily!
Actually P2 is going for 2nd place here _________________ one day u and me! EYE to EYE.... We will decide  |

I think the complaint should be looked into a little more seriously. In Kreso's post here - http://www.galacticmag.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=80 point (b)
Quote: |
Cooperative play is considered cheating. There are two possibilities, applicable only when more than 3 players are playing:
a) Two players conducted a trade, where the trade is obviously advantageous only for one player.
b) During auction, a player didn't bid the price up despite that being obviously disadvantageous for him. The auction is then won by another player for obviously too low price.
|
I think the mods should check whether not bidding was 'obviously disadvantageous' to Rikki. |

Ranban, the above rule is IF someone actually takes it. The rule says that the bidder would then have to up the stakes. His problem if no-one bid on it. |

3 greens for around 300 i assume? like i said before, just another loophole for cheap players to take advantage of and cheat. i tried to say that "auctioning" when only one person could bid was just a cheap cheat trade, but nobody listened, now someone will. i was told once that if i couldnt see the difference between that and a cheat that someone didnt know what to tell me.... my guess is cause they had nothing to say cause i was obviously right. couldnt resist, finaly someone agrees with my point.
tell me this, what advantage does giving 3 green for 300 or 400 give the auctioner??? NONE thats what! but i feel it was obviously put in the rules as a loophole for people to still be able to cheat. hence, y i quit playin multiplayer long ago, and currently, the whole game is deleted from my computer, just cause of crap like that, and more will follow, im sure. |

Canon, could you clarify your post? I cannot understand it.
Kreso's post is slightly ambiguous, and perhaps different people will interpret it differently. He also says that
Quote: |

|
I sincerely hope he was referring to 3 or more rather than more than 3, because if it were the latter, it would legitimize cooperative play in a 3p game.
About the not bidding part,
Quote: |
b) During auction, a player didn't bid the price up despite that being obviously disadvantageous for him. The auction is then won by another player for obviously too low price.
|
This is slightly ambiguous, but I still go by what I said. If, in a 3p game, a,b & c are playing,and a and b refuse to bid against each other, while bidding normally against c. What would you call that? Strategy? Cheating? Teaming? I think that is what the above rule refers to.
I have had the misfortune of being in a few games like this, and it is extremely annoying.
I am not saying that this particular instance was cheating - rikki could have been going for another set - or going for second place, I dunno. But a complaint should not be thrown out of the window just because it is about auctions and not trades. |
