[Tinkerman]

I've only been playing PT since the October sales, when I finally updated from 17. It's been a learning process and it's clear that quite a bit about the game is wonky, but I accept that that's kind of inevitable.

However... living in the UK and being several hours ahead of the US is proving to be my biggest issue. Virtually every auction that I'm interested in ends at around 2 in the morning. The general unavailability of certain cards, some of which defy logic, doesn't help because it encourages people to be greedy and set BINs too high. I don't have much hope that the international player base is going to expand massively, so I don't see things improving, unless the developers make specific changes with time zones in mind.

The two suggestions I have are firstly, I think it would be healthy for the game in general if cards had a maximum price. Dynamic so it can change with popularity. And secondly, having live auctions neither show the highest bid, nor tell you if your bid is the highest. The auction shows the starting price, the BIN price and the number of bids, but does not update the starting price as bids come in. People bid what they like and find out if they have won at the close. This is simply to avoid having to be at your pc at the close. I'm sure these will be universally unpopular with the flip kings, but if the prospect is for 21 to be set up the same, I'll probably end up playing OOTP XX franchise mode for the foreseeable!
