TOPIC: 2020 Fixed Price Auction (unsuccessful)

I was worried that this week would be pretty solidly "too soon" with regards to trying again, though the interest people have shown seems to indicate otherwise. I was thinking of retrying with a more standard-styled super condensed auction to give people a more fair shot at things rather than whoever manages to fire off a PM first, given recent announcements (I'm mostly thinking of shogs here, not gunna lie). I would probably aim to have a lightning-style cutoff as well, since gauging a decent auction end date is a bit tough to determine this year and I would hate for people to be stuck in auction limbo for too long.

That being said, would people be interested still?

I am

maybe set the auction closing date for September 30. Gives 2 months give or take. Should get you there if it's going to happen

I was honestly thinking of having the cutoff date be quite a bit sooner, like maybe end of the month at the latest so I'm not just holding things up with an indefinite stranglehold here and other people can get a shot in before the end of the token year.

With that, since I've been tracking average prices from auctions, I was also probably going to aim to start with a relatively high reserve price- maybe 75% or so of the average ending point this season (the averages are already weighted a little lower since some a lot account from when preorder only items were still in the mix, so I imagine even at those reserve points they're still a great price).

For reference, Jeff just posted this as far as cut off dates for 2020:

I would say I am more interested now than before since there are more runs this year.

Yeah should make most ppl want to get something

Looks like I was a bit too slow- just finished editing my google docs auction template with some lightning-styled rules added in and it seems someone beat me to starting one.

Boooooo

To be fair, edwin is a good guy, has hosted many auctions in the past, and is likely not on discord.

Though, looks like he cut about 8 types of item out of his auction, including shogs, GP and a couple other crafting mats, so I might just go ahead since I'm also running a different auction style as well?

His total ask is also only 7K.

I didn't see what his end date was. Perhaps sequential rather than concurrent?
