Hey @ClarinetPhoenix, are bids with 5k increments still valid. I see some bids like that when the rules say "Minimum bid increments will be 10,000 EcoDollars. You can of course bid by much more."
This generally applies to yourself. You can raise your own bid my a minimum of 10k, this doesn't mean all bids must be a increment of 10k, 15k above your previous bid is perfectly acceptable, as is 25k, 35k, etc etc. Hence why there are some bids ending in a 5k multiple.
current top bids if people are curious Prime (2): 1. matrix - 1m 2. ubeagle - 925k Second Tier (4): 3. tanknoodle - 910k 4. eranow - 710k 5. imCJ - 700k 6. drowning - 170k Back Row (5): 7. kenny - 165k 8. max_hutchinson - 160k 9. ancastal - 150k 10. bsqt - 110k 11. speed42jh - 75k
bids as of thread lock top 1. ubeagle 2.2m 2. matrix 2.1m tier 2 3. tank 2m 4. eranow 1.3m 5. _imCJ 700k 6. drowning 200k back row 7. probablydead 195k 8. limelush 190k 9. speed 180k 10. kenny 165k 11. max_hutcinson 160k my math has this this at a whopping 9.39 million out of the economy if these numbers stand, nice
Highly questionable though. One could claim Matrix and Tank should be thread banned for breaking the thread rules. Critical in an auction with this format.
"Redacted" bids would still have been honored. One does not get to bid at the end during a snipe contest (or at any point of the auction) and simply say "oh, nevermind" simply because they lost. All bids ARE final. The other post was not a redacted bid, but someone mistaking the time of the auction ending and making a comment as if it was over, and tbf I would of been fine with such comments after the end of the auction. I personally could of been much more clear about when the auction ends to prevent this sort of confusion. Live and learn for next time. It's pretty clear it wasn't an intent to troll/clog up the thread nor does the content before edit change the outcome of the auction. If would be entirely different if it was bid amounts that where changed between the posts, which did not happen. Snipe contests are messy at best and I wasn't expecting it all to be perfect and due to the frantic nature of it I was prepared to give some leeway. After examining the situation no action was done by anyone that would have seriously compromised the results of the auction otherwise. All the final bids will stand. I will begin processing the auction shortly. I will contact you when its your turn to pick a shop. I will be taking the money for the shops right away. This is the order in which you will be contacted. 1. @UBeagle with the bid of 2.2m ECD 2. @matrix_rep with a bid of 2.1m ECD 3. @TankNoodle with a bid of 2.0m ECD 4. @EraNow with a bid of 1.3m ECD 5. @_imCj with a bid of 700k ECD 6. @DrowningInPizza with a bid of 200k ECD 7. @probablydead with a bid of 195k ECD 8. @LimeLush with a bid of 190k ECD 9. @Speed42jh with a bid of 180k ECD 10. @kenny0011 with a bid of 165k ECD 11. @max_hutchinson with a bid of 160k ECD Congratulations everyone!
