Its actually just based on percentage. If your percentage of total bid volume is 10% then you get a 10% upvote.

When you see smaller bids making a larger return than larger bids it is only because the percentage could not be sliced perfectly at such a small amount and the difference is negligible.

You bet! I'm always here for my patrons :)

Didn't explain myself precisely

Whatever. The system has some serious flaws. And seriously flawed players. Every day I see crazy things happening. Bot has a $126 max is overbod with still 1:15 left to $255.  Reducing the difference between minimum amd maximum bid acceptable could help stop one or two bids of 10-20x the average bid amounts blowing out the round. You know better than me.

Thanks and keep it up !!

I see what you mean.

Actually I just did one better for that one on ninja...

Now, it simply will not let the round get overbid. If people send in after ninja is at -10% ROI according to the bot tracker it will refund them not letting them bid. This way the rounds do not get over bid. :)

Just started this couple days ago.

Yes I noticed the -10% ROI !!  You are one of the forward thinkers protecting the innocent, fools and the greedy from them own weakness.

Maybe you could start a BIDDER RATING system for bot owners to use when accepting bids. 

Bids would not be accepted from people  with a low rating which they would get if they overvote late, or make bids 3x larger than the majority of bids already in place in a round.  Malicious distruptive players trying to wreck bots reputation, or the greedy will quickly get a low rating and be rejected

To give you (another) example of stupid bidding - just this minute I check on a bot - 2 bids of 0.1 with a roi of 350%.  A few moments later somebody has bid 1.0 and for sure by the time bidding closes there will be an negative roi because a few more bids of 0.1 or 0.2 will fill the bid.
