Also gave me an idea to make auctions more interesting for non-winners. (but i'll first get the auctions going as they were, only then consider upgrades).

Nobel prize for Auctions
Nobel prize for Auctions
Since auctions are a thing here (or well, currently aren't a thing), this definitely needs to be posted here.

Re: Nobel prize for Auctions
I'll take the winners curse, I'll try and be rational, I'll do anything!! Just let me bid! 
I think I'm having auction withdrawal syndrome.... knowing my luck first auction in an age will be when I am unavailable.

Re: Nobel prize for Auctions
i wanted to bump my old thread but i guess it was autolocked after too much time http://www.uoex.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=6415 so i'll post it here instead
i just dreamed there was an auction, but the stone was a bit buggy and sometimes it ended the bidding early. A feeding bucket sold for 300k. I couldn't bid because I accidentally withdrew my 9 figure savings from exex to the bank so I had to move checks from the bank to the exex box again, which took a long time because checks have 1 million max (I know the real system counts checks in the bank, but we aren't use real logic here). I was ready by the time the titan's hammer came, I bid 22 million, someone outbid me to 29 million and the glitchy system ended it before i could rebid. All sales final.
Don't worry, I'm not that hyped about game auctions. Dreams are merely a vessel for memory to reorganize real world experiences through the lens of other, sometimes and in this case less important means.
