So all you have to do is to connect to the site that publish reports for your
auction and fill in your new bid, automatically it will be posted to the mailing
list.
Auction session is daily, from 00:00:01 till 24:00:00 (italian time, +1 GMT)
of each day; during the week-end, auction session starts at 00:00:01 of Saturday
and ends at 24:00:00 of Monday.
Each day you must connect to the site in order to make your offers.
It's an updated summary of the auction, which take in consideration also every
new bids made during the current session.
To make your new bid, all you have to do it's simply to login to following link
"login per le offerte" using your team code and your password.
Soon after you were logged in, you can see the actual situation as for the report,
but with only those elements you are still racing for.
You can use the proper column "Tuo Ril", where you can make your offer/new
bid. You can do only 3 things:
in order to make a new offer/bid: simply put the number of credit youi offer/bid
pass: you should put the letter "p"
stand by: you should put the letter "s"
You have 20 minutes, starting from the moment you logged in, to make your offer
before someone else can change it.
If the 20 minutes run out, or you want to down the clock, you should simply
refresh the page. In this way you can check the new situation updated, with
all the new offer arrived meanwhile.
In the right column, in addition to your team's summary, you can see a timer
saying how much time you have to make your offer.
Check carefully your offers before sending them.
If any error occurs, the program will tell you, all you have to do is going
back (with the back button of the browser) and retype the offer.
If your offer are OK, they'll be recorded and sent immediately to the mailing
list.
As soon as the offer are recorded you can't modify them.
If two or more teams make the same offer for a particular element , the one
that came first is well served.
Each session last till the midnight.
The database will generate a mail with a summary of the previous session, as
soon as a player visit the site after the deadline.
So... if you don't get the summary mail, it means that nobody visit the site
after the end of the session.
For everything that is linked to time, we use the clock of the server that host
the site.
