    Okay, I'm going to explain why this is wrong.

    FC1 has 4 active members and can only afford 1 bid. FC2 has 100 active members and can afford 50 bids.

    Current system, both FCs bid on the house (lets say its a premium plot): FC1 has a slightly less than 2% chance of winning.

    Current system, FC1 bids on the house, FC2 does not (lets say its a less desirable plot; FC2 is aiming higher because they have more resources): FC1 has a 100% chance of winning.

    System you're proposing, FC2 does not bid on the house, FC1 cannot bid on the house: no one uses the house.

    You are wrong. The two things are not the same. That is not an opinion, it is an objective fact that can be mathematically proven. I will no longer entertain this talking point. Call me when you have something else.

    On this point, I actually agree with you. I'd love to see a system that takes a portion of the bid upon loss. If you can pile 20 bids on a large, you can afford to lose 5M for every bid that loses.
