Why? What have you heard? And what's the name and home address of the person who's spreading these vicious, completely unsubstantiated rumors?

I do not want to turn the boards into an extension of what should be happening in-game. In part, I am sure the Thieves Guild is taking special interest in such auctions. Or maybe a storekeep, powerful Red Wizard, or some other Thayan celebrity may make an appearance and have their own special and unique items they want the auctioneers to handle in exchange for a piece of the coin made. In other words - I'm excited to see the opportunities this can open up in-game and want to keep the action there.

It seems like there is a fair amount of interest in this (myself included!), and with the coin and items to be had I'd encourage an entrepreneurial look at handling this - maybe more people (with players in various time zones) need to be hired to handle the auction. Maybe guards need to be hired to watch the items. Then, of course, there is the cut to be negotiated between the item owners and the auctioneers. Good times!

I really suggest looking at multiple times to hold multiple auctions in-game. And as far as doing things on the board though, I think it's acceptable though for those organizing it to post a list here of available items (and maybe a generalization of their powers) that they have agreed upon with the owners of them to be auctioned off. But the fee negotiations, bidding, buying, selling, and transferring of the items should all occur in-game.

Fair enough. Maybe have the list up one day before the auctioning starts then start auctions.

|Ooc: The auction has been rescheduled for Saturday October 15, 2011 at 1 p.m EST. I won't be able to stay for all of it but I can at least get it started and bertram can finish it. List of some of the items coming up....

[Animayhem]

I may have some items. Bert and Maury what times approximately will you be available either today or tomorrow.

[Bertram Anders]

Just a few of the items I have or saw from others:

Longbow, third tier.
Boots with, second tier. [+3 fort stoneskin (7) 5/ day]
Ring of protection, third tier.
Crossbow, third tier.
Sling with unlimited fire ammo, first tier.
Rift Hammer

Have more, thought those the more noteable ones though.



Another thing I could like to ask. If you have items to sell it would be extremely helpful to me if you would list your items in a letter and the minimun bids you would like on them.
