Why if I set an autobid value, the bid is higher then the starting price (no bid yet)? It seems that it is a bug?

I´m just waiting for all that mass of people inside 42% against autobid that treat to leave the game, if the feature was implemented eventually

That kind of argument seem to be very unfair and childish. their standpoint was "I think we should do A... so if you vote/decide B... I´m not playing". In other words, " we play my rules or we don´t play at all"

I´m not discussing other arguments which I don´t agree to but at least I respect. But if you go to "democracy" and lost you should be able to accept the result.

Right now the way you can tell is that you see the bid is on the same exact time stamp of yours.

Not only is it at the same time, it is currently your bid. Is that the intent? I think intuitively, it should allow you to put in your bid, and then if there is an autobid that can outbid over that 2%, then it would apply that bid.

I would have prefered a limitation of max 1 autobid on player and staff at the same time too. I'm ok with autobid but not as free as it is now. It's open door to trading; you can set as many autobids as you want just under the real value of the players, and the ones you get you can put them on sale at a higher price. I'm not very fan...

I'm still waiting for a penalty for the players on TL again and again at a too expensive price...

Yep. And even if auto-bid smooths out the prices and reduces bargains, traders can still profit because they make their money fleecing with inflated sales prices.

So I agree on both counts, some sort of limit on auto-bids and penalties for repeatedly listing on the TL. But it's a nice surprise to see it implemented.

I'm not totally against autobid, but I do want limitations put on it. It's something that can easily get abused of and I wouldn't be surprised if someone has already found ways to circumvent the system.

In this video, I discuss the newest feature that was added to the BuzzerBeater universe, Auto bidding. I provide background information on where this suggestion originated from and discuss who the target audience is for this change. I dig into how the auto bid feature works and also do a deep dive into what I think this means for BuzzerBeater moving forward.

The new system has already boosted prices in the technical staff market. Before you could get a superior trainer with a $20 000 salary for about $5 000. This last days I've seen auto bids for as much as $400 000. Teams with low resources are doomed...

It's also "silly season" for staff upgrades, though. Trainer prices have always been much higher in the week before and after the start of the season than in the two weeks right before the playoffs, so you have to make sure you're not comparing apples to oranges either.
