When more than one player is bidding for a C3 corporation, or a GM corporation for that matter, the system offers each player the opportunity to bid more if their most recent bid has been improved upon by a rival.
Instead of bidding more and more in increments of 0.01B each time until the deadline is reached, how about a sealed bidding process after a set number of bids or time has passed?
For example:
Two players are bidding for a C3 FMU corp valued at 30B. When each of them has submitted their first bid, the option becomes available to submit a sealed bid which won't be known by the other bidder, either confirmation of the bid or for how much. When the 4 month period since the opening bid is reached, the player who has submitted the highest bid takes control of the corporation. In the event of a tie, the process restarts.
This is how it [sometimes] works in RL and it also negates any possible advantage gain
