Naah, there's no way I would do that. xDD I'm too afraid of being kicked by your boot.

If I got hit by a high over bid and jump over, it will be to the other valentine day's item. x)

Thanks for the reply. ^^

Ok, thanks for answering my question Aeris <333

I think extending the next auction to 8 days and including no new people to enter on the last day is a great idea ^^
It would be nice to see the difference that it makes on next week's auction.

@With: I read your suggestion and I find that something like that is needed. I experienced just that with the Queen's Crown because three (I think) people entered invalid bids for the Queen's Crown and it caused another valid bidder to place a new bid that was around 200g higher than it really needed to be if you were only bidding 50g more.
Although it is extremely difficult to always be there to validate people because if you take too long people will become very anxious.

Witch 02-26-2008 08:26 PM



Yeah, that case with the crown was also a good example.
The hairpin jumped from 3k to 6k was what what gave me the idea of suggesting validation before anyone put their first bid. ^^;;

Okay, thanks for answering n__n

And thanks to everyone else who answered too o:

@Witch: Woah it jumped that much?! That is an insane increase...
Things like that really need to stop happening.

Melody 02-26-2008 10:35 PM

yeah people seem to think it is cool to make the price jump a bunch. :/
The kings crown started off that way this week. I think the second bid was over 5k >.<

Witch 02-26-2008 11:09 PM





It's ended! The auction just closed! xO

I feel like I really almost got an ulcer watching the clock and seeing everyone insanely piling up golds until it was impossible for me to bid at hairpin at all...^^;;;


SUSPENSECHU!
*TackledGlompRoll* >V<
CONGRATULATION on getting your Valentine Belt!! <3<3<3<3<3
That's good karma or what?! Gyahahah!! xDD

I was about to bid 3k for the pendant but the door already locked. Anyway, ToriKat won that one with 3.1K anyway. Congratulation Tori!!! <3


Gah! It's 6 AM here, but I have goosebumps and feel cold at the fingertips from all this feverish excitement! xDDDDD

This Auction this is great! Thanks for running this Aeris! <3

I will definitely so want to join in the next auction! xDD

Is this time for a party or what??

*pops up confetti* xD



...yeah, I'm lost totally beaten down, even after days of non stop gold collecting, but somehow I'm really happy to be able to join this kind of event, and to see my friends win. ^.^;; Silly eh?


purplejesseh 02-26-2008 11:12 PM

Congrats to the winners~~

Wendy Darling 02-26-2008 11:17 PM

I agree that there needs to be some sort of rule against jumping over someone by at least thousands of gold or so. The King's Crown DID start out at about 5k for this auction.

I shouldn't have bid my last bid at all because I saw Logan's bid before I put mine in, but I figured what the heck, I'll just do something and lose valiantly or whatever. I knew I had lost, definitely.

Should be a rule that states bids outbidding someone, no matter what, can only be 100 gold or something. Jumping up thousands of gold is turning out to be problematic.

But congrats to all the winners! I hope everyone enjoys their items! ^__^

Witch 02-26-2008 11:18 PM



Wow, L o g a n won the hairpin, I thought it was melody xyelle. ^^;;;


Ah right...Congrats to all of the winners on other items too! <3 Great jobs! :D



M i n u x e 02-26-2008 11:21 PM

Congrats to all the winners!!!! =D

Man this was so intense, especially for people bidding for the hairpin! I can't believe that Logan actually bid 20.6k for it!! Melody was actually also very close to getting it, too bad she only had 20k on her ^^"

I didn't like what happened with the Queen's Crown though. It was at 1.2k and then once it was the last minute someone bid 3.6k on it, which is 3 times more than the previous bid!!!
Oh well, I will work hard towards saving enough gold for next week's auction. I have my eyes on that crown *-*

Aeris 02-26-2008 11:25 PM

Generally I used to guide the auction by bids, but I may consider a very top amount that you can bid by. If I do do that, it will be by a big sum however, likely 2k.

I don't think that would help XD;;

Edit:

I've added a ton of new rules, so everyone have a lookie. <3

Also, I am opening Queen's Crowns to those who have not won crowns before.

sukishine 02-26-2008 11:57 PM

Thank you Aeris! <3

M i n u x e 02-27-2008 12:03 AM

@Aeris: Wait, does that mean that people with the King's Crown can now bid for the Queen's crown too?! Argh, I doubt I will win it then ><;;
I also suspect that this means that the supply of queen's crowns are running low. Although that is just an odd suspicion.

- goes to read all the new rules -

Wendy Darling 02-27-2008 12:45 AM

So, I won the Queen's Crown in a previous auction.

The King's Crown still isn't up for grabs if you have either crown? I'm confused. Rule three states: "Only when bidding the Kings Crown you may NOT OWN any of the corresponding items (King for the King)." So, I don't own a King's Crown -- I'm able to bid even though I won a Queen's through this auction?

If I'm totally wrong, correct me on this, please. XD

Thank you, Aeris!

ToriKat 02-27-2008 12:47 AM

Homg, yay! *excited to get the pendant* This...this just leaves the boa to be sought. *_*<3

Thank you again so much for doing this, Aeris! xD I got two items off my list thanks to you! x3

Congrats to all of the other winners! The hairpin was intense. O_O *got scared watching it shoot up the way it did*

Melody 02-27-2008 01:32 AM

Congrats to all of the winners this week (:

Mozzetti 02-27-2008 01:35 AM


Oh, cool! Queen's crown open. 8D

Congrats to all winners. (:

For some reason King's crown is way more popular than the queen's crown, so I think there are actually more queen's crown in the market? x)


Suspense 02-27-2008 05:18 PM

YAY THANKS AERIS! <33 *Ish reallllyyyyy happy* <33

And thanks Witchu! <333 *Huggles*

Yay! The queen crown is open to all? Maybe I'll go after that once I buy a pendant from somewhere :3 xDD <33

Congrats to all the other winners :3 <33

*Was going to post this right after she won but was toooo tired xD*

[L]ove[H]ate 02-27-2008 08:57 PM

Yay, thanks aeris for the crown!♥

M i n u x e 02-27-2008 09:13 PM

@Witch: O, I meant that the supply of Queen's Crowns used in Aeris' auctions are running low, not the supply in the Menewshan market xP

Guess I will have to save up a lot of gold to at least have a fair shot at getting the crown since it is now open to all...

eliechan 02-27-2008 10:22 PM

ack! last vday belt~~~~~ T-T

Ah wells, good luck to everyone~~~!

A i 03-01-2008 07:59 AM

id like to ask something..if i've sent the screenshots, but haven't got the confirmation yet..

in the mean time, i bought some new stuffs ( March DI's ), do i have to take new screenshots and send again, or i don't have to, not until the auction almost ends? ;O

oh and i don't quite understand the new Queen Crown's rule..
so if i have king's crown, won from the auction before..
but never bidded on queen's crown, neither do i have one..
so am i allowed to bid on it then? ;O

Ayla 03-01-2008 03:27 PM

I feel silly asking this but:

My inventory hasn't changed since the last time I bid, so I didn't sell or buy anything new. Can I just reused the image that I took last time or do I have to rescreen-shot everything and make a new picture?
