I don't know if people realize what I'm doing by posting to so many auction threads with little rp snippets but i thought I could explain and maybe get a little help from someone else or a few someones.

Basically I had noticed that once we started getting a huge amount of contestants, only the top 5 to 10 were getting any attention. So I wandered my way to the bottom of the list and started bumping threads that hadn't been posted to in roughly 3 days. I know we have over a weeks time of bidding yet to go but I thought it was a fun idea (it was definitely fun to write) and it kinda worked.

If i post to your thread, or if your char has been bidding or watching, I humbly request that even if a bid isn't going to be made or your char hates Mads guts or something, to make some kind of little snippet post. I'd like to not see the same threads sitting down at the bottom of the page. And as I've already been told by some, it makes the writers of contestants who were chillin at the bottom of the page feel better. That even if their char doesn't get bid on, that there's some substance there for them to reflect on.

This is a really cool idea. Hope more people do so.

:) it's a great idea, and working a treat.

Gah! I'm loving Madison's thread! Such juicy RP... it's SOOOOoooo cool, I'm bummed I'm leaving this weekend! *sniffs*

Actually, I won't be gone near as long as I thought. I'm catching an early ride home and leaving my daughter up North to play in the sun while I come back to study >.>

So I can play Pi in the auction!

Is there a rule about violence at the auctions?

>.>

[Pi dArtois]

Gah >.> I'm pretty sure we never had to have one. Given this is the first year in quite this format, where people could actual RP out each individual auction in 'real time'.

There are certainly no IC rules for one. We'll see how these auctions pan out for additions to rules for next year.

I'd prefer not in an ooc sense. I like the idea of banter, even tension, but I'm not sure it's a great thing to have whole sale slaughter in a room full of vampires & humans. I suspect we'd have to use the "grab you by the scruff of the neck and toss out the back door"

.....

I've been enjoying that. I would do the same but Kira wouldn't really say anything dealing with some people.

Just a reminder that auction cards close in 7.5 hours. iF I'm not online at exactly midnight, I'll be using time stops to decide if cards submitted tonight meet the deadline :)
