Today is should have bought a new youngster. Don't can give you the number of the rider. But sport bought him now lower then I did bid on him. He bid 1736000 or something I my bid was 1750000. Something went wrong there. Is it possible to correct this. I have a bid now on a other rider for tomorrow morning. So I need to know.

Nearly the same problem today.
I bid 1650001 for rider number 929730
Gambrinus bid 1650000 and the rider goes to his team.
If it is kind of work to change this, there is no need to and it could stay like it is.
But it would be good to know:
Is this a bug or does this happen regularly when the amount of money is nearly the same?
Would be happy to know that - and also happy to know soon, how the career of 929730 goes on

Thx and greetings
GUDE

He will stay in the peloton all day every day, and suck with the rest of his teammates.

I can confirm that it is not a bug, it happens everytime there are 2 similar offers.

In that case it is a programming mistake? But we need a rule how to handle it. The easiest way would be to say okay its the riders choice and we wont change it manually.
But thats up to you how to handle it

It's always like that so it's not a bug? Ah, the old bug as features thing!
The question is: is it wanted? No. So it's a bug.
In the past you used to then transfer the rider to the higher bid, that's how I got Nägele. But as I told you then, consistency is needed. Since you don't always have the time to react fast, probably the do nothing approach is the right one. Would have been the right approach then too actually. But then consistently handle it like that from now on!

Followed your advice after realizing that it was not a single bug but it was coded that way.
So it is not something that happen once every x time, but it can happen also every day as it is coded that way.
Basically when offers are really similar they end up in the same minute, I don't even think it's random but rider goes to the first who made the offer (not sure however).

Unfortunately I just deleted the driver in my transfer bids... but FL should know which number his new rider has: 47-69-79-47-47 with 58reg.
I offered some thousands more then FL and I have 2.X million on my account. Is this just bad luck or how we can handle it?

it now also happens if the bids are not really similar. i lost the bidding by 30K vs Gude and still got the rider. According to his messages in chat he had the money.
