To be honest they don't give you a great advantage, and most people that have had them set up don't tend to use them long term. I am of course an exception to that. <br /> <br />1> Unfortunately the Forums are provided via an 'off the shelf' package which would be difficult to update further in the way you suggest. <br /> <br />2> Contingency Group biding first has to be enabled on your settings page... then they appear as extra Group options on your drop down menu, for you to select. <br /> <br />A contingency group cancels all the remaining snipes in a Group once one is lost.. so it is generally considered useful for getting things that go together, or when it only makes sense to bid on something if it comes with a postage discount because you have already purchased the earlier things in the Group. Beware though this applies at every stage of the Group... winning the first means it will bid on the second, but losing the second will again mean it stops bidding. <br /> <br />From what you say it would appear you used a regular Group when you intended to use a Contingency group.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Ohm</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Sat Oct 01, 2016 9:58 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Instructable on Use</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">I'm wondering if there might be a Sticky posted explaining in detail how to use GIXEN? <br /> <br />If not, creating one might go a long way to help new users to use the service wisely and also serve to reduce the forum clutter when things go wrong due to user error. <br /> <br />I'm new to GIXEN and have only been using it for about two months now and love it. I value it so much that I took out a two year Paid subscription after only a few days of use as a Thank You to the GIXEN developers. <br /> <br />Btw the above is not my actual user name. Is there a way to set that as a permanent default? Establishing a Forum name different than your actual username? <br /> <br />So far I've only had two isssues. <br /> <br />1. The Search function in the Forums yields overly broad search results. So broad that it renders the "results" useless. <br /> <br />2. I do not understand how to set up a Contingency Bid group. And I cannot find any results explaing it via the search function. <br /> <br />It is my understanding that a Contingency Bid is the polar opposite of the normal group bidding process; where a Win cancels any subsequent Bids in the included group; a Contigency Bid cancels all subsequent Bids in the event of losing the first auction in the group? <br /> <br />That is my strategy for many of the auctions I Bid in so it is important for me to understand how to do it correctly. Not as I did this week wherein it cancelled my subsequent Bids after the first auction Won. <br /> <br />Any Help will be greatly appreciated. <br /> <br />Thanks <br />Ohm</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
