Once you have a bot to run it, can't you drop the 10% chance of 10x bit and just transfer money every time?
The bot doesn't run the money transfer. It runs the auction (collects bids from everybody, displays bids when all have been collected), and runs a random number generator.
We have also used the same bot to play a Schelling Point Game, where someone names a category (eg "a book") instead of a thing to auction, and we all make a guess (e.g "Strategy of Conflict" or "The Bible") instead of a bid. You get a point if your guess is the same as someone else's.
The bot could keep track of who owes what, and then you could settle monthly or something. Easier than adding money transfer.
Agreed, we just haven't gotten to that yet. The auctioneer chatroom bot is pretty new.
