In Mongolia, after a Turn Order pass, can the opening high bidder drop out instead of rebidding?
One designer-tagged poster gives his opinion; it is not a formal ruling and other players read the rule differently.

Most likely no. One designer-tagged reply says the opening bid simply stands and the auction passes back to the player who used Turn Order pass, so the opener is bypassed and cannot drop out. It is given as an opinion, not a formal ruling, and a strict literal reading could allow a drop-out.
