Sellers cancel listings with bids without the bid penalty.

Member previewVariant 5 · 3 implementations · 8 checks per implementation

Case contract

Deposit = per_block * (hours//12) where per_block = max(1, floor(stack_value*15/100)). Sold: net = price - cut with cut = 5% of price rounded half up (deposit refunded). Expired: net = -deposit. Cancelled: net = -deposit - floor(bid*5/100) (bid defaults to 0). Returns {deposit, net} in copper.

Why this case matters

Game economies leak or destroy currency when one crafting or pricing rule is off by one boundary, rounding stage or state update; the defect is observable in exact integer outcomes.

One recorded failure

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
