'Spring Forwards' Auction

Good news, everybody! To celebrate the season and the abundance of adventurers gallivanting about we're holding another auction of grandiose goods and stellar services! It's time to scour your carts for sellables and gird your wallets for the coming storm of commerce.

This'll pretty much go the same as the other auctions we've had in the past; you're welcome to sell goods or services, though the buyer assumes all responsibility for ensuring that the offered services are carried out. These can include magical items, mundane items, commissions for paintings or weapons, catering services, or even something as abstract as securing a contract to perform a dance for a gathering.

Starting this very moment and until midnight EST on the 30th of April Renea will be open to receiving various items either in person or via the magical post to be auctioned off. You can feel free to give a minimum starting bid for your items, and if you're so inclined you're welcome to submit multiple items into a single lot to be auctioned off together. All submissions will be anonymous with the obvious exception of services, which can't be anonymous.

I'll be putting up a list of the items being auctioned on the first of May, both on the forums and on the news board in game, though only the board in game will show the colours of the items for sale and only the forum will show the current highest bid. The bidding period will end on May 31st at midnight EST, and if you've won and/or sold anything you'll be receiving an invoice through the mail on the following day.

You can bid by sending a letter to Renea through the post, or if you prefer by handing a letter to her in person. All bids must be written down, but it isn't necessary to mail them. Be sure to include your name, the lot numbers of the items you're bidding on, and how much you're bidding. All bid will be made in platinum and the list of bids will be updated at midnight EST each day. For the last six hours of the auction (May 31st, 6PM EST -
midnight) I'll be updating as soon as each new bid is made.

An example of a proper bidding slip:

Name: Oghma
Lot #: 5
Bid: 19 platinum

As is usual for these types of auctions a 10% fee will be levied by the followers of Waukeen for their services. For example, if an item has a winning bid of 80 platinum then 72 will go to the seller and 8 will go to the followers of Waukeen.

If you have any questions or concerns, let me know! Thanks, and good luck!

For the very last hour of the auction, we'll be going live! Renea will be standing in the ballroom of the temple of Sune, where the mercantile battle of coin will find its conclusion! During that time you'll be able to make bids without a slip, just by shouting them at Renea- You can continue to send bids in via the mail, but there are no guarantees as to how quickly they'll be read into the official record. For absolute certainty you should either attend yourself or send a proxy to bid on your behalf.

Also, there will be cake and refreshments!

Is midnight Sunday the beginning of the day (Saturday->Sunday) or the end of the day (Sunday->Monday)?

Ah, good question! It is actually the technically incorrect answer, Sunday -> Monday. I just thought that would be easier to read at a glance, but it's good to clarify it. So there's a bit under a day and a half left to bid.

To clarify for anyone in the future like me, it ends at midnight EST on 18th not 17th, I.e. early hours of the morning of Monday 18th.

Yes, thank-you! Specifically this is the time the auction ends at:

https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/ ... 0200518T04

IMPORTANT NOTE: Since Renea will be taking bids in person for the last hour if you have to submit a bid through the mail please send it to Brooke (The General Arcane Practitioner) and she'll act as a proxy bidder for you.

Just curious, the game seems to have been down over 30 minutes, at least for myself. I can't find a server status thread or widget. Because the last hour was intended to be live, is anything changed/post-phoned at least until the server's back up?

The auction is being extended by 24 hours, due to the machinations of Shar! The last hour will start at the same time tomorrow.

Thanks a lot, Shar.

Will we be pushing back another day? I don't know about anyone else, but I haven't been able to log on via mudlet on any of the ports (4000, 443, 23, and 80 always gives errors, and reports apache/web server stuff). Can't wait to get back on and RP with all you lovely people :)

Yeah, right now the game still seems to be down, so it'll be pushed back until it's not down at the very least.

I'm a player whose characters' regularly chew on waterskins, drink from smithy barrels, and search the wrong containers for the wrong object.

I just want take a moment and say thanks for all the effort put into this. I really like these events and do appreciate all the oraganizational wizardry that must happen in the background.

Thanks!

Just a note! You have until the end of the month to claim any items won at the auction. After that, they'll either be returned to the seller or sold to the next highest bidder.
