Finding a good Board Game Mechanic | TABLEscraps #43

Today's topic: "Are there any mechanism that is a no-go to you?
I'm wondering if it's just me, but there's some mechanism that makes a game, as cool as it sounds, a pass for me. Mancala is one of them, but I can live with that, there's not so much mancala games as far as I'm concerned (relatively speaking).

The problem is bidding/auction; I don't like it and they're everywhere in all shapes and forms. Sure, I can try a light quick game, but bidding for turn order? COME ON! Blind bidding? I can go on and on!" (Submitted by viewer Lucas Morão.)
