Okay, say I set up an item for auction for 100 zeni:

then the bid order would HAVE TO BE this?:

125
150
175
200
225
etc.?

Or could somebody bid like 100000 right of the bat?

(by 25 zeni intervals, doesn't that mean that you can bid whatever as long as it is divisible by 25? Or did my calc. teacher fail me?)

It has to go up in increments of 25. NOT something divisible by 25, to my knowledge.

Yea, no offense, but I want to get Pikkon's official word on this matter :)

There is something of grave importance to me which relates to this very topic xD

No other auction has been allowed to go up in the way you mentioned, why would it be allowed to now?

It works as a real auction does. You can bid what you want but it must be at least 25 higher than the previous bid.

No, that's only because You Pan, have been telling people that you can only go up by 25.

Before, nobody really bid by 25 increments unless it really wasn't that important, or it was very expensive

In this case, I win the Hero sword from this auction:

That's because that is what I thought. I can be wrong y'know. It's not my fault if people go along with it, now is it? A lot of 'me telling people' was when I wasn't staff, so there was no need to actually listen to me, hm?

Meh, I'm not dissing you. And sorry if I sounded pissed, I shouldn't have over reacted >_<

Anyways, what's going to happen to that thread? I should have the sword, not 19

It's over, dude... 19 has the sword. You should work it out with him. Say you'll pay him X amount of money where X = your highest bid. Maybe you'll be able to get the sword after all.

I don't want the work it out. I bought it. Case closed. Just that Pan told him that the increments go up by 25, doesn't mean he HAS to listen to the advice. He should have asked this to Pikkon by then.

It doesn't matter: I bid 1500 for it
it's like... when I go to ebay, and I pay 1500 dollars for a game, somebody can't just say: "Oi, I want to pay 1300 for it! it's mine!"

I don't care what you say, it is rightfully mine

also, I didn't go up by 25 zeni. As you can see, that post is unedited in any way, and states that I bid 1500 zeni.

Didn't I bid after you did? So if you placed a bid of 1500, I would bid 1525, so yeah, in the end, I won again.

If it's rightfully yours, and you had the money, you should had kept placing bids. It's not my fault...

So, if CT did place a bid, then I'm bidding 1300.


you did not say "I bid 25 extra"
you said you bid 1300
I even have a screen shot of it if you bother changing it now

Yeah, that was because of the 25 zeni increments. EVEN IF YOU DID BID 1500 ZENI, I would have placed another bid anyway... Geez, it's just a game...

19 is still right, you should have posted this before the auction ended.

To make this a whole lot simpler:

Quote:
 
[10:48] Azazel665: tell him that you won
[10:48] Azazel665: and to remove the item from his list



I guess I'm telling you that I won and that you need to remove the Hero Sword from your item list...
I guess I also better tell Tapion to add 200 zeni

also, 19 needs to give himself 1300 zeni

also, I need to subtract 1500 zeni

Merry Christmas!

The true solution to this problem is that the auction will be extended until tomorrow. Whoever has the highest bid at that time will win. The thread has been unlocked and bidding may continue.
