Auction June 11th

Post by +Colibri »

There will be a regulars-sized auction this weekend.
Saturday, May 11th, at 22:00 shard time. (That's 6pm US eastern, 5pm central, 3pm pacific; midnight for central europe; 8am sunday morning for most australians)

Item list coming in the next few days, there will be approximately 20-25 items.
We will be selling 4 new addons that were crafted by our team of testers in the contextual-command-sandbox.



Here's the list of items:

Vampire bat on perch
Armor Piercing Dip tub
Excelsiorian Sandals
Ethereal Panda
Titan's hammer
Lower reagent cost deed
No-Resources Deed
Prismblade mold
Ethereal Mount De-etherializing tub
Ethereal Dye Tub
Bracelet of Sha'am bonus slots
Large BOD Of Your Choice
Sash of Animal Lore (+8 bonus)
Personal unicorn spawner

--- Additional 4 new addons to be displayed on friday. One-per-player bidding (but not account bound) ---
Supernatural themed room by by Zalia
Moonshine Still by Praise
Ancient Arcane Circle by Cerrera
Baba Yaga Cave by Arrow

--- 5 old addons with account-bound for 1 year and one-per-player bidding ---
UnfinishedStatueScaffold1
Stack Of 20 Titans Hammers
ChaosGazebo
Glass Gazebo addon
garden well





We'll keep this auction rather short, there will be no repeat auction on Sunday since this is a regular auction (grand auctions do that). There will also be no re-auction.
But I've been thinking about adjusting the auctions, and we've also been discussing ideas about it with the team of contextual-command-testing group, so there's 2 special groups of addons with additional rules.

The 4 new addons, created by members of the contextual-command-testing group, will be sold with a one-per-account rule. This group is separate from the 5 old addons, so if you buy something from that group, you can still buy one addon from this group. There's no account binding on these addons.

The 5 old addons (scaffold, stack of titans, chaos gazebo, glass gazebo, garden well) will be sold with a one-per account rule & 1 year account binding. So basicalyl, player who wins the scaffold can't bid on the further 4 addons. Then the winner of the stack-of-titans-hammers can't bid on the further 3, and so on. A player can only buy 1 of these 5 addons. The addons will be account bound, and then be un-bound 1 year later (this is not scripted so i'll just put a reminder in my calendar). Buyers of these addons can then still bid on the new addons, it's a separate group.

Haha yes i made an error, it is supposed to be May.
I often travel in time and then it's easy to make this mistake.

Or just an early sign of dementia :worried:

Any chance we can get a second on on Sunday? Asking for purely selfish reasons. :lool:

Just posted the item list.

@Alibaster, sorry this is a regular "small" auction so no repeat on Sunday. There will also be no re-auction.

Thanks for getting the list up early and hosting an auction +C.

Question on the prismablade mold: It is purely an appearance change item? It doesn't impact weapon base damage or specials?

John Warren, a player by the name of Turnabout has the Prismablade mold. You could ask him.

Ok the final list of items is now posted. Note that I changed the order a little bit:
- first is the regular items, upgrades/deeds and a few decorative things (personal spawner, prismblade...)
- then group of 4 new addons (one per player)
- lastly the group of 5 old addons (one per player, and accout bound for 1 year).
