Auction July 6th, 2024

Post by +Colibri »

There will be a regular-sized auction this Saturday, June 6th, at 22:00 shard time. (That's 6pm US eastern, 5pm central, 3pm pacific; midnight for central Europe; 8am Sunday morning for most Australians)


Items are now on display, here's the official list


First, some of the usual stuff:
Excelsiorian Sandals
Ethereal Dye Tub
Harpy on perch
+10 to single-target hit on a weapon
Ethereal Skeletal Dragon
Sorcerio's Footprints effect
Dreadnought sword
Infinite Bandage

Then, new addons created by the members of the Contextual Commands Testing team:
These addons are sold with a one-per-player rule.
Viserion's Legacy Addon
Sparking Ideas In Bloom Addon
Tranquil Waters Addon
Caged Skeleton On Water Addon
Stormy Sitting Area Addon

And wrapping up with a few more decorative things, mostly summer themed:
PierNorth
Deed for a dolphin spawner at your house
Deed for a kraken spawner at your house
UnfinishedStatueScaffold2
CannonWithAmmoEast
Stockade
CasinoTableSouth




The new addons are sold with a one-per-player rule. So whoever wins the bid for the first item (Viserion's Legacy Addon) can no longer bid on the following 4. Same for the 2nd one, winner of the Sparking Ideas In Bloom Addon then can't bid on the remaining 3 ... etc.
This applies on the 5 new addons only. After these are sold, bidding on the Pier and the rest of them is normal, anyone can bid.

You get an email for the IDOC, if your house is IDOC, as a last chance to log in and refresh it. I'm assuming you came here from the link on that post, that stated emails were sent.

Items are now on display, sorry for the delay.

Re: Email notifications. Emails are intended only for those players who don't follow the forums and such... though I guess we could make a mailing list for events.

That could be an interesting option. Have users select a tag (and authority level) and then when that tag is used by the proper authority level an email is sent.

There is always the "subscribe to topic" option (which leaves notifications on a forums account), but that can only be applied after a post has been made and currently does not send emails.

Could also do a simpler, subscribe to admin emails and then if you make a post you can decide whether it is sent to everyone with the subscription.

I just think an unfiltered email on every forum post would suck for me personally.

I was disappointed the item list was not published before the auction. I am on holidays and had a few friends ready to bid on my behalf, but the list never appeared, so I didn't get to participate.

Congrats to everyone that got to participate.

Please more +10 to a hit deeds in future auctions.
