Yeah, secret bids aren't normally accepted in auctions. You're generally supposed to know how much people are bidding so that you can bid above them, and I don't think you're supposed to include assets you don't yet have control over as part of your bid either.
These rules not being followed is why the judge was initially so mad in the first place.
