Have you guys considered adding an element where people (bidders) “give up” to accelerate the dwell time for winning a bid?
How to Create a Basic Auction Bot in Workplace
In this guide, we will talk you through how to create a basic auction bot in Workplace. The bot will allow employees to place bids on a variety of items and record the highest bids in a Google Spreadsheet.dev.thebotplatform.com
Also wondering if we can program a simple bot that accepts bids after being fed a list of items aka players and abstracts this whole process to display highest bid.
I'd personally advise against it because situations should be fluid. For example, if I am outbid on a specific player, it could put me in play for someone I didn't otherwise consider because I was focused on winning the former. Thankfully, the upcoming period will be 12 hours, so it will fly by much quicker.
