Can players make deals or negotiate during the turn order auction?
The designer stated the official stance in multiple posts.

No. The designers say the game has no negotiation and the auction is not a place for deals, and tournaments disallow table talk. Outside the auction, groups decide for themselves what table talk to allow.
