Yea, what I like is in one round, a person will win the bonus with a low bid like 55, then next round - about 4 or 5 people will have bids of around and over 500 - to try to get the bonus.
Hopefully Fencer will let us look at past moves of all the pond games soon - I have started to learn how some players play, but would be nice to "research" some players a little more... :-)
