A Live Auction Engine Built for Fantasy Cricket
Real-time WebSocket bidding. Timer-reset mechanics. Tiered increments. Full replay. GaimZone's auction engine is the heart of the platform.
How the auction engine works
GaimZone uses a real-time WebSocket connection so all participants — League Owner, franchise bidders, and players — see every bid simultaneously with zero delay.
Players are presented in randomized order to prevent gaming the system. Each auction round starts at the base bid and rises through tiered increments as competition heats up.
- WebSocket-based — all participants synced in real time
- Randomized player order to keep strategy unpredictable
- Timer counts down per player — resets with every new bid
- Tiered bid increments scale with the current bid price
- Budget enforcement — system prevents overbidding
- Squad minimum reserve — must keep budget for remaining required players
- Unsold players auto-re-enter the pool for rebidding
