    Why would you stop? Stopping means losing because your tokens are gone...
    I would call them idiots if they stopped at round 150 because it's getting to much, not forcarrying on to round 200.
    it's stupid because they didn't use their head in bidding. they only used their emotion. they didn't have a plan B if the bidding didn't go their way. they should have made restrictions before bidding according to the player's value, at which rounds they should have stopped. it's better to stop at round 150 since at least he can get a scout player with 50 tokens. the one who wins at round 150 also can't be said as a winner since he has to pay much more than the player's actual value so he needs to add an extra 25 tokens to cover the difference.

    considering scout player, there's no reason to get to round 50. each of us should know our psychological limit, before we get uncontrolled in auction. believe me, if you were that guy, you wouldn't be very happy winning that auction. for me, both are stupid. there's no winner. if anything, maybe nordeus is, by designing this auction system.

    In my opnion holding on to a number of tokens to spend is stupid.. If you are 1v1 a guy and you have already spent 150 tokens what on earth is keeping you from spending another 20 to make sure you get him? If you stop at 150 you lost 150 tokens and got nothing, if you go through you lose the tokens but at least get something in return.
