Auctions in G-29

Seeing as G-2 has went totally down hill with ppl spamming it on a regular basis tonight I started an auction in G-29...

Welcome to G-29, hope things go well here. The rules are going to be simple:
**Always bid by 5gc or more, if above 500 by 10gc or more, if above 1k by 25gc or more**
*Etiquette* Don't interrupt the auctions- Don't Chat- Never comment on other's auctions- Bid Correctly- Be Polite- Don't SPAM*
- Etiquette will be followed or EVERYONE that is here will ignore you. IF you are ignored by auctioneer during this time, your bids will NOT count - no exceptions.
The other auctioneers might have their own bid rules, but Etiquette usually stays the same! Please send whispers to anyone who interrupts the auctions asking them to stop

I invited everyone and posted it enough that I'm sure everyone who plays seen it and had a chance to participate. With all this being said the auctions ran for well over 4 hours and had ONE interruption. Thank you Wizeagle for taking over after I got tired. Thank you ALL for making tonight a huge success!! Let's hope it stays this way and drama free!!!!

It went well.
Sold a BK, bought a loot spot.
There were nearly no interruptions or spam.
Wizeagle did a great job.

great auction, good job

I agree bids by granite should and will be allowed (1.5:1 or whatever seller likes)but I had some ppl asking if they could bid the loot they will get from the LS, had ppl asking if they could bid in G-ore, heck I even had one guy last night ask me if they could bid in wheat. This kind of stuff should be posted by the seller in the original auction if they allow.

I don't mind some sellers wanting to gain granite so bid by granite only. Heck I don't even mind bid by fish only, if it isn't something crazy like a 1 fish, 2 fish auction, save that stuff for self auctioning. The list last night got up to 51 people at one point. I didn't actually know if I could handle a huge auction, that is why I wanted to keep it simple there last night. All in all it went very smooth and I'm proud of the ppl and the help received.

Thank You ImaQT and all the people that participated in it last night. I think having an auctioneer allows for more control over the room and keeps things in control so you dont have 3 people trying to auction something at one time. Also there were no issues last night..had one comment uncalled for..dealt with..things went fine after. barenski..Im sorry to hear that. however..as a person that has beeen in auctions plenty of times you know the rules. if thats what you want to do an auction for,you have every right to do a self auction when its your time in the que.

Great auction last night... thanks Wizeagle, ImaQT, DoofyMcKillj00, and others who filled in ... ran like a show!
