    I think it was because it was outdated...

    I enquired about this from the maker and im pretty sure it was due to an update neo did

    What would be good ??
    1- you input the auction and the program follow it ? (1 at the time)
    2- you input a list of items to watch for and the program take care of bidding on all of them ?

    I think a list of items would be best. Single iteams are easy to follow and bid on yourself.

    Also, would this always bid 5k over the bid needed, or could you set it yourself? Because for some items bidding 5k over isn't too smart.

    Sometimes bidding 5k is smart :D...

    I presume it could calculate the the minimum but who wants to snipe codestones

    Somewhere, lah.
    Tharoux, have firstly a list function with maximum value to bid on an item with cusomizable bid increments.

    Secondly, have an option to follow an auction ID. Great for last minute mispriced auction snipes

    List function would be great! And to be able to put in the bid over would be great (or even to make it random from a certain range you pick would be awesome!)

    So, a list for everything you could possibly snipe, the ability to be searching for many items at once.

    But can you implement something that tells it to only bid when there's a certain small amount of time left? To minimize the NP you tie up in the bid and probably have a better chance of success. That would be cool. And also tell you when you've been outbid.






    P.S...PLEASE DO THIS IN JAVA!!! :)

    I only want it to auto bid for me, like let's say jetsam mp is 100k cheaper then tp, austion ends in 30 secs... It continues to rebid if beaten ...

    Any updates if this is happening

    both functions would be very helpful... the second one was what expon's was lacking.
