Reply to "Lead time completely off base--and cost me an item"

Two things:

- Purely anecdotal - It seems AS's auto-lead-time-adjusting feature adversely affects mainly users who set lead times to the little numbers, like 7 seconds or less. I set my leads in the low to mid teens and NEVER recall having my snipe times adjusted to the extremes reported by by the <5 second snipers.

- One thread of this topic reminds me of the story of the little old lady that went to her doctor for an embarrassing problem. "I have 'silent gas'," she explained to her doctor. "I can be at church, at the grocery store, at the movie theater, anywhere! -- and I can't help myself -- I just have to pass gas! I'm just so thankful it's always 'silent'! Why, just while I've been explaining this problem to you, I have had 3 episodes and I bet you didn't even realize it!" "First things first, my dear," the doctor replied. "The first thing we need to do is to check your hearing!"
