swoopa probably has a system in place to see how many people are watching the auction, and they'll place their own bids as long as people are "gambling" and watching

We now offer a new type of auction, which means that at a certain point in time, our auctions will become closed to new bidders. This means that just those who have placed at least one bid on the auction can continue to bid - giving our bidders a higher chance of winning and ensuring things heat up a bit. Swoopo reserves the right to choose when the closing point for each auction is, which is why we cannot let you know beforehand at which point auctions will become closed to new users. This new function will make our auctions more exciting, and subsequently offers you better chances of winning our auctions.
