Swoopo Forum
Many of my most recent posts on Swoopers dot org have been inspired from discussions we’ve had in our Members-Only Swoopo Forum. The great part about having a small group of people discussing strategy (without the distraction of letting any stranger post whatever they want) is that we get really high-quality posts and lots of great sharing back and forth about how to win on Swoopo.
Swoopers dot org members are also often the first to know about changes to Swoopo’s auction formats or rules. Here are just a few examples of stuff I’ve written after getting excellent feedback from our forum members:

Calculating BidButler Activity
There’s a new blog written by Roy Melvin, a Swoopo pro. He’s been posting just for the past few weeks…but it’s started to generate some commotion in our Swoopers forum.
This particular piece from early January is probably Roy’s best article (in my opinion) and I thought it very worth sharing for our members. Roy calculated a formula to get a sense of past BidButler history for an auction. You can read his post for the math, but the short version of it is:
Take the auction start time and subtract 24 hours (24 being the initial clock time). Now take the remaining time and divide by the current auction price.
If your total is close to $2.50, the auction has been very active with BidButlers.
If however, the total is above $6 or $7, the auction has been relatively free of BidButlers.
It might be better understood with a formula:
T = Total auction time elapsed
C = Current auction price
DH = Dollars per hour
( T – 24 ) / C = DH
Thanks Roy for that great post. Keep ‘em coming!
Introducing the Super Swoopers List
Today I updated the Blacklist to the latest members. I pulled off those names who are no longer active Swoopo bidders and made sure to include all those who have been big winners.
This latest list is over 150 members long and includes everyone who’s won more than 25 auctions in the past 6 months! If anyone needs proof that people can and do win time and again on Swoopo – send them to this list…
Due to feedback from members in the Swoopers dot org forum, I also included absolutely everyone. No longer can a member of our site asked to be removed from the list. This seems to be a more democratic approach. And since the data is available with Swoopo Analytics anyway – it only made sense to include it here. As a result of that change, I’ve also changed the name to the Super Swoopers list. Since this site is all about winning more Swoopo auctions – it was a silly bit of marketing to call it the “blacklist.”
As always, happy bidding.
Updated Blacklist
Thanks to the genius of my new friend Jon, who I’ve been working with over the past few weeks to develop an advanced Swoopo product…I have an updated Blacklist to share.
There are now over 100 usernames on the Blacklist.
For those who aren’t aware, the Swoopo Blacklist is a list of Swoopo bidders who have bid and won over 10 times in the past few months. In short, it’s a list of bidders to avoid on Swoopo!
As always, if you’re a Swoopers dot org member and you find your name on the list, just email me and I’ll pull you off.
P.S. I’m not yet ready to announce what Jon and I have been working on, but I think the Swoopo pros are going to love it. Make sure to stay tuned to the blog and watch for emails for me over the coming week as we get ready to launch.
