Move: 15
Scooter:	(10. January 2006, 06:05:54) Alexlee, yes the bids are interesting! But in no way shape was there any improper bidding going on! Honestly!! If you think logically, being in last place (as Mach was) there is no reason to bid all points... if you figure everyone else will bid 1 point more than you have, then whats the point? You will fall in the pond anyway... the logic is that you bid less than what you have despite being in last place... with the very remote hope that someone may decide to bid less than what you have as well. As a matter of fact I almost always do this if I am in last place and am about to fall in. I bid less than I have and hope that someone may bid even less as crazy as that sounds... being in last place there is nothing to lose by doing this since I will probably fall in anyway. If you look at my games where I am in last place you will see what I am talking about... and some astute players (like Vikings and Mach) have taken advantage of this trend by picking up on it... Interesting indeed...
