any way to do blind bidding

I am considering trying to play a board game on Roll20 that involves blind bidding (Game of Thrones). I'm not sure if Roll20 has features that would allow for a blind bid. Someone suggested the ability to play multiple cards from a hand at once. That would be a pretty good way to do it.&nbsp; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/163216/select-and-play-multiple-items-from-hand#post-163216" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/163216/select-and-play-multiple-items-from-hand#post-163216</a> Anyone know of a current way to implement a feature like that without resorting to something outside Roll20?

Possibly whispering your bid to the GM would solve that problem?

Jellyman T. said: Possibly whispering your bid to the GM would solve that problem? I don't think that would work since in GoT there is no all-knowing GM. The GM is a players just like all other players. If the GM has any information that the other players don't have s-/he would have an unfair advantage in the game. I have no idea what can and can't be done with the cards since I have not used them once. I hope you'll figure out a good way since GoT would benefit from the ability to scheme behind other players. In f2f game-sessions that really isn't doable. If you ever talk to any other player so others won't hear you, they still know you talked "in secret". The same usually goes with papers and those are super slow to use anyway.

You can certainly do this with decks. &nbsp;You will need a deck for each player that represents the entire range of allowable bids. &nbsp;Make sure that the deck is set to play face down on the table by default. &nbsp;When you are starting a game, deal the entirety of one deck to each player. &nbsp;When you want to do bidding, each player involved in the bid places the 'card' from their hand down on the table. &nbsp;When all participants have put in their bid, turn the cards over. &nbsp;After resolving who succeeded, the players take the bid 'cards' back into their hand. With a little creativity, you could make the back of each bid deck different depending on which house the person was playing. What is the range of allowable bids? &nbsp;

Ah hah, that's a good way to do it, thanks Keith. I'd have to double check but I think the maximum theoretical bid is in the 15-18 range (that's the total number of influence tokens you can have, if I remember their name correctly). Your method kind of separates the bid from the tokens themselves (which would be yet another deck of cards, I think), but I like it because the bidding is easy, you just have to drop down one thing rather than several every time you need to bid.
