This fixes a quirk of selective-bidding auction where each bid amount
can only be claimed by a single person. That's fine in normal auctions,
but in a selective-bid auction, it means Alice can bid 5 coins on lot X
and lot Y, but Alice can't bid 5 coins on lot X while Bob bids 5 coins
on lot Y.
Amend Regulation AM0 by, as a single amendment:
{
In the paragraph beginning "BIDDING:", deleting "specifying a number of
the auction's currency as eir bid not equal to the bid of another player"
After that paragraph, inserting the following paragraph:
{
EXCLUSIVITY: Bids are grouped into classes. Unless otherwise specified,
all bids are in a single class. A bid CANNOT be made if, in the class it
would be in, another bid already exists with the bid amount as the
hypothetical bid.
}
}
Amend Regulation AM5 by inserting the following as a new list item after
the one starting with "Bidding messages": "One bid class exists for each
lot, with bids falling into the class for the specified lot."
