thanks a lot for the answers guys, but I can see you didn't really get my point on the second issue..

I'm not new to the game, I know how the bidding works but sometimes there's some kind of a bug, when I do bid at the actual round and still get eliminated when it ends (even though it says clearly 'qualified to the next round as the leader'), and it did happen to me over 5 times. all those times it happened after I wasted 1-3 tokens but it still is kind of irritating.
