Bidding

Bidding has been open for 2 days now. There is a glitch in the bid sheet showing Bid Complete when it has not opened yet. Hopefully this will have no effect on the actual bid and the bid slot should show OPEN at the correct time.

"Ralph, I got a problem. It seems that on the roster, I already made my bid for April (wich I didn't) and it also gave me the same routes I bid for this month (March). Do you whant me to fly them again or will I be able to bid? Thanks. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif[/img]"

"We are aware of the bidding problem as posted above. We will not get the problem resolved for this month so if it will not let you change the flights, just fly the same ones again. We have lost Jeff Greth who wrote the bid process and so far can not find a replacement PHP programmer. Sorry for the inconvience. "

"Due to serious unexpected probelms with the bid routine, I have had to cancel it for the month. Your administrators will be in touch to see where we go from here. "

BIDDING IS RE-OPENED It is not working correctly so many will not be able to bid and will be assigned last months routes automatically. Many will be able to bid without a proble. All bid slots will open very quickly today. The administrators will cut everyone some slack this month and next month hopefully bidding will return to normal. I feel that the problem was caused by an extended bid time last month due to only 28 days in the month and should be okay in the future.
