In the rule “Planning” after “where X is a non-negative integer, is considered to be a bid of amount X on it.” add
If an Imagineer has already made a bid on a Demand Post, any additional bid that Imagineer makes on the same Demand Post must be at least 100 less than any other bid they already made on that Demand Post.
Stops bidding cycles from dragging down too much. Also adds a bit more strategy to the bidding process.
We need something like this, but this fix becomes a problem if a building is worth about the same to multiple players, which it often will be. Everybody will want to bid very close to that perceived value, and to bid last, because the last player bidding can undercut all of the others by just 1 Currency, forcing them all to rebid at around 100 under the actual worth.
