@Windy: xD I hope so! I hate auctions.*laughs* I get so nervous during the biddings...and my computer tends to lag sometimes. >_>;

D: I hope you get the pendant! Guhh, I'm so glad I got mine before the last two were announced. T_T People are getting a little bloodthirsty for it!

@Minuxe: Oh no! D: I'm sorry...Guhh, I wish I had more gold. I would have been glad to lend you some. xD I did that for jessiekins before and she got her crown. <3 Maybe next week? ^^

@Wendy:Well I still do have a chance of bidding, but that is only if no one else bids higher than this person does. If I sell a shirt back to the store and post a bit more I will have 1750g ^^"
It is a really close call though. Anyways I really don't have to get this crown this week. It would just be cool if I did.

Aw she was going to give you a pin?! Damn, it is extremely sad that the deal didn't go through!!! ><;;

Lol.... YOU also really really want that pin! This is the last pin, so it is vital that you get it this week. There are still crowns left to go around =)
Don't worry I don't feel crushed right now.

@Tori: O, it is good you got it before the last two. Everyone is extremely desperate right now...

Thanks for the generous offer. I think you stand a strong chance of getting the pendant!
Anyways as I mentioned before if I am lucky enough that no one else bids on the queen's crown, I just might be able to get it this week!! =D

@Tori: Fortunately my computer doesn't lag much at all -- it's just a matter of me freezing out and my heart beating like crazy and my hands sweating and shaking. XD; I hate auctions just as much as you, m'dear. XD;

I don't think I would EVER be bloodthirsty for an item, but it is my favorite item on Menewsha, ever since I've joined. I thought I finally had a fair shot, but nope! XD;

@Minuxe: The best thing to do is to seriously save up for it -- get about 5k in your wallet and you should be safe to go.

Yeah, she was going to trade me the pin, it's just that I never heard back from her. She just said she would consider the offer. I should probably ask her, but I don't want to be a bother. ><

@Wendy: - stares at your gold count -
C'mon!! You definitely have a fair shot at getting the item! It all comes down to luck though. I bet that in the last minute people will pretty much just bid practically everything they have ^^"

Ya that is the best thing to do. I will definitely just save my gold for next time, if I can't get it this week.
O I see. Well if something happens and you don't get the pin then you should ask her about it because finding a seller might be impossible.

@Minuxe: Hehe, okay. <3 I'm really sure you can get it since there are lots!

@Windy: Oh WOW! I didn't realize this WAS the last hairpin. O_O Thought there were two left. xD *hugs* Good luck! And I know what you mean! The hairpin was my most favorite item the second I fell into Menewsha, and I was questing it forever until Aeris's auctions.

@Tori: Yess, the very last! You're VERY lucky you got yours already. I just came onto the auction scene way too late. It started when I was apathetic / didn't believe I could quest religiously.

@Minuxe: That, and I definitely don't have the gold count that everyone else has that's bidding on it. Some people have 20k and over. DDD":

@Tori: Ya I am pretty confident that I will be able to get the Crown, eventually ^^"

@Wendy: Well it still isn't too late quite yet, there is half an hour more to go!!
Why didn't you believe you could really quest though? You have very nice artwork, so selling your art really does generate a lot of income for you.

O wow really?! I haven't been paying too much attention to other people's gold count. There is a chance that in the last minute or so people will actually bid 20k on it.... I hope that doesn't happen though.

@Minuxe: I am naturally a very impatient person, but when Nescia showed me that it was possible and that she already had like. . . half of the V-Day set and she joined WAY after me, I was like. . . THAT COULD BE ME. D:

It's teaching me patience each and every day. XD;

Hopefully the 20k bidding stuff WON'T happen. It defeats the whole purpose of these things. *SIGH* 20k is close to the low end of the actual price anyway.

@Windy: Oo, were you selling art? :D I'm no where near successful at that since...I draw and color extremely slowly. Dx

I bet a lot of people were selling event and contribution items. ^^;

@Minuxe: ...if I see a 20k bid on the hairpin, I'll seriously have a heart attack. xD

Dammit, I really feel that I may be out of the running for the Queen's Crown unless I borrow some money from someone who offered to lend me some. Two people are bidding for the crown and one has 5.5k while the other has 7.6k ><;;

@Wendy: Ah I see. Wow it was cool that Nescia helped you realize that you could definitely quest. She must have been so dedicated to get half the set!

Yes it really does. Although this is the last hairpin and I won't blame people for being overly-desperate for it and pouring all their gold into it.
True that it is close to the low end, but you can't even find people selling the pin xDxD

@Tori: Lolol ya same here!!

@Tori: I am indeed selling and auctioning art. I have the V-Day pin as my autobuy even, but I'm not running an auction at the moment cause I'm already BACKED UP on commissions till next month, seriously. I'm not that very efficient at doing things quickly either, so don't worry. @[email protected]

I wish people offered more Valentine's and St. Patrick's Day stuff for art. It's how I got my Pot of Gold and Welcome Sets. >w<

@Minuxe: You'll be able to get it. I felt hopeless like that against people when I went for the Queen's Crown, but the trick isn't always so much gold but TIMING. I have to admit, I've gotten lucky with timing on every auction I've participated in. I normally get the last bid in for an item, even though it might not be the winning one. >_>;

@Windy: I really wish I hopped into the auctions earlier. I don't know how on earth I'm going to get the boa. T_T But late is better than never. <3 Are there any other items you're going after?

@Minuxe: xD I'd be willing to help...but I definitely don't have that much gold to help you compete with those people...Dx I spent WAY too much on the Vday commons. T_T

@Wendy: It would be nice if more people offered rare EIs like those items. I bet that you could find some people willing to give their EIs in exchange for extremely awesome art though. You just need to find a way to attract those type of people...

Ya you are good with timing, you just seem to have bad luck in other ways. I will also try to make sure that I have perfect timing. I guess I will see if I can borrow 500g from someone because that should put me in a 'safe' place ><;;

OHEMGEE.
IM SO PISSED!

About a month ago, my friend Rob told me he'd take me to this concert
TASTE OF CHAOS!
I really wanted to go, cause my favorite band, Avenged Sevenfold will be there.
So, when Rob was telling me about it he says;
"HEY! Your favorite band is having a concert on March First! I f you wanna go, I can get tickets; My dad knows this guy, so I can most likely get them free."
So, of course I was all HELL YEAH!
xD
He got the tickets a week ago, and never freakin told me that he did get them, so I probably wont be able to go the concert now!
He just told me like..Literally, five seconds ago.


Uggh
Im soo freakin..AGGGH!
Irritated.
I want to go so bad, but I dun think the boss will lemme have the day off

@Tori: All the items that I'm going after are in my signature, really. It's mainly the whole V-Day 2007 set, the three St. Patrick's Day items I don't have, and then the King's Crown, Pudao, and Fan. XD; Still quite a ways to go! ><

You'll get your boa though, sooner than later. :D

@Minuxe: Yeah, that's what I've been trying to do. I've set up an auction house in the Art Auctions, made an art shop and constantly stalk the request threads to see if anyone's looking for art in exchange for those items. XD; Trust me, I'm trying to attract / stalk. XDDDD

@Windy: xD Ahaha...I can sympathize. I have a LOT of art all as WIPs at the moment, because I have less time to CG and more time to doodle.

I'm going to keep attempting to auction off 10 artworks for a boa until I die. D< (kidding xD)

@Avenged: O_____O Oh no! Can't you still try? T_T *hopes you get to go!*

@Tori: I'd really be willing to do at least four arts for a hairpin at this point. @[email protected];

Alright, I'm about to go into full on auction mode, so if I don't talk, I'm. . . freaking out. >_>;;;;;

This is the second freakin time this has happened.
The first was a little different, but in the end, I STILL didnt get to go
D:


&&His reason for not telling me was;;

"I told you a month ago when it was, and that I would get tickets!"

Uhhm, okay, but, Im not gonna ask for the day off, until I officially know that IM GOING.

I wanted to strangle him
xDD

I mean, I'll get over it, of course.
Its just so irritating, and worse that its the second time its happened!

This is the exact reason that I dont look forward to much; cause in the end, it usually doesnt happen.

Anywho, Im gonna get back to downloading my music..Its taking so long
D:
