"ABC AUCTION: Session 2 is now open"
Posted by tribephyl on 10-01-05 at 06:56 PM
Couple of reminders...

1. No siggies please. Hard enough for our dial-up friends without excess bits added everywhere.

2. I will first open the bids, after a 5minute lull in bids I will post a "Going..going" reply. Bids are still open at this time.
If another 5(or so) minute lapse happens I will reply with "Gone" and reveal the prize.
I will then open up the next item up for bids.

3. Refresh .... refresh ... refresh!!!
This thread moves along at a very odd pace.
Try opening another window with your message then refresh the first page before posting your message.

4. No chit-cheating, no giving chits away. No trading of prizes.

5. The current chit totals follow:
lvoetulips ~ 58
mimo ~ 130
kingfish ~ 130
LookeeLoo ~ 90
smokedog ~ 110
GuessItRains ~ 110

For a total of 10 chits,

Lolly, You receive...

There is a twist to this prize.
The player who receives the other half (The right half) of this prize and yourself will become special hosts in a Bonus I have planned for the week 6 entry.
The potential for points is huge.
More details to come.

For me...It's fun to watch.

But don't be shy newbs, hurry in and try to stop them from nickel and diming eachother to death.

"Item #2 is GONE!!!"
Posted by tribephyl on 10-01-05 at 07:50 PM
Congrats, lvoetulips!

Just hand over the 58 chits and this is yours...

This prize insures that for one week you get positive points instead of negative points for each vote.
Only one use though.
Use when you think the tribes might tie in TC for the maximum potential.

"RE: Item #2 is GONE!!!"
Posted by lvoetulips on 10-01-05 at 08:07 PM
Quick question- do I have to decide to use this ahead of the episode? Like within my entry for the week???

I went to run a 5K this evening with a totally awesome after race party. All you can eat food - and I'm talking pizza, BBQ pork sandwiches, grilled cheese, bagels, hamburgers, brats, cakes/pies/ cookies, jambalaya, pasta, chili, etc. Plus, 4 free beer tickets. All you gotta do is run 3.1 miles through a massive crowd of sweaty, hungry people to get to it! But I left early to get to the auction (grin)

WTF? What does the word "Vixen" imply to you? (hmpf) I have never been called "frog boy" and I am now feeling mighty indignant.

<swishing fluffy foxy tail and batting long foxy eyelashes>

btw... the edit was that I decided not to announce that I was all in - hoping to scare off the other bidders.

Posted by Kermit the Vixen on 10-01-05 at 10:38 PM
but I'll fight with food. Take back your bid and I'll upload a batch of my delicious, homemade turtle cheescake. Or margarita pie. Your choice. Just for you - you don't even have to share. Deal?

"RE: I'll fight...."
Posted by smokedog on 10-01-05 at 10:41 PM
Even if I wanted to, I don't think I would be allowed to...would I?

Probably going to have to stand by my last bid.

"RE: I'll fight...."
Posted by Kermit the Vixen on 10-01-05 at 10:42 PM
I can upload some pie or cheesecake for Tribe, too, if the bid retraction is permitted. What do you say, Tribe? My buddy? Aren't you hungry for some pie?

"RE: I'll fight...."
Posted by tribephyl on 10-01-05 at 10:44 PM
Yup! You gotta stand by your bid.

Although cheesecake is tempting.

"Item # 9 GONE!"

Here is your prize, smokedog.

BUT

I want to tempt you with these two glyphs.

If you give me back your 5 points, I'll give you what is behind either glyph #1 or glyph #2.

Go ahead take a chance and pick a glyph or keep the 5points. Your choice.

"Glyph two, por favor"
Posted by smokedog on 10-01-05 at 10:50 PM

Yes, you are, my dear.

It breaks my heart to bid against you. If you continue to bid, though, you will probably win. Or can we conspire to share?

edit to say that I'm not going to fight my dear Scarlett. And I'll just wait till Wednesday.
