I think this fixes it.
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 in an auction are grouped into classes of that auction.
Unless otherwise specified,
all bids in a given auction 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 of 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 of a given auction, with bids falling into the class for the specified lot."
