In our previous work we investigated resource allocations among agents by means of legal/illegal behavior in the context of an M/D/I queuing model. Specifically, self-interested agents are deployed in a non-cooperative game: compete with each other to bid/bribe for quicker service provided by the server. In this paper, we extend our previous work and provide formal notions of more general queuing models, but restrict our discussion in a legal bid queue only. An analysis of their properties from decision theoretic perspective is discussed. We conduct an experiment to observe the advantage of various strategies.
