Impromptu auction system - Yvain - 14-05-2013
I don't like that system. Last-second posts will matter the most, with +1 gold bids once again. More, we won't be able to sort out hundreds of posts, since players can edit theirs, putting higher or lower prices. They can even delete their posts so one won't know if one's fist bid has been outbid and if the money is available again.
This should be done via PMs. Allow players to send 1 PM only to Hyper, until the deadline. Blind bids are far more interesting. And this will be easier to sort out.
Better idea, Hyper, ask players to PM Senni instead

I also think that blind-bids are far more interesting and fair.
I guess Hyper would not like to be spammed, so I volunteer to receive the bids if we go this way.

I always supported silent auction , specially to avoid trolls raising prices (including myself). A normal auction is good if everybody is in the same room or at least on the same time. Now we have people are at work when the bids end or worst, sleeping cause it's 4am where they live. To be the fairest way, a silent auction where you bid what you think the items will be worth is far more interesting and fair for everyone.

Maybe next time. I cannot deal with reading a single further PM so this system is staying in place for this auction
Re: Impromptu auction system - Nka19 - 14-05-2013
Maybe set an autolock for the topic when the timer runs out. (if that's possible)

I don't know if you are able to see previous versions of any edited post to prevent players from removing their bids.
Anyway. Might not be important in this small auction. Thx all the same.
