Domain auctions are always a voodoo science.
Especially when you're talking about domain sniping, and the subsequent silent auctions where you don't really know if you're bidding against ANYONE, but you still have to put in a maximum bid just in case, and you don't get any feedback on whether you've bid enough money or not until after the auction is over.
There's so little visibility that no one really knows what's going on or if they're inflating prices or using fake people to auction against you or anything.
What do you guys think about a true registry-level wait list policy? Maybe combined with open auctions if there's more than one person waiting. Then we wouldn't have these companies with hundreds of fake registrars constantly pinging the registry getting away with all this stuff.
