Re: TBS Auction - How'd You Do?
I have lost bids by $ 1 or $2 dollars at the last minute in numerous recent stew auctions. I do not understand how someone can figure out a bid that is only a dollar over in such a short time, and its happened to me multiple times with different eventual winners. Is there some unknown (to me) program that players are using to do this????

Re: TBS Auction - How'd You Do?
Ummmm......they just bid higher than your Max and the system settles it at $1 over your Max. They don’t magically know your Max.Pepper Carol wrote: ↑3 years ago I have lost bids by $ 1 or $2 dollars at the last minute in numerous recent stew auctions.

I got a horse who had a cool name so I thought he would be special. He's not.

https://www.simhorseracing.com/horse.ph ... ID=1253264 I got this little granddaughter of James Dean. She gallops stakes and peak but may be a good start to putting my barn back together.
Edited to add: I could use SIM money if someone wants to make me a big offer for her.

Re: TBS Auction - How'd You Do?
so Fireaway was a freak hmmmmm
he would have been my choice if I were to have bought anything in this auction but paying 7 million for a yearling whose dams top foal so far earned shy of 1 million was not going to happen
not that I would have affforded such a sum anyhow haha
and as I have 3 stakes gallopping homebred colts allready in my yearling barn I was not really looking for a colt tjhough I could always have used a freak so please let me hae a filly from the next one hah

Re: TBS Auction - How'd You Do?
I stopped bidding days ago and didn’t expect to get anything, so imagine my surprise when I woke up this morning to find congratulations from Kaine and Dave on my Stewardbred purchase. Confused, I went to check. Underbid won.

She came with a note and galloped Freak- the cheapest purchase in the auction yesterday. I’m very happy!
