(...) I think I see what you're getting at but I don't see any other way to do it. You can't make the current bid $3.10 or $2.90, so it has to be $3.00.

I've looked at a couple of traces and it looks like the serial driver just stops receiving data after a certain point.

I don't see # 2 as correct. Rae had her bid in first, so if Chris bid $2.00, Rae should have the winning bid at $2.00, NOT $2.10, because she has the earlier bid. You shouldn't increment her's OVER his hard bid, just equal to it. So if you write (...) (25 years ago, 3-Oct-99, to lugnet.market.theory)
