Greetings, I heard you were looking for some items, or maybe you were looking to sell? Either way, I think this Live Auction will interest you.

About Me
I'm Rakaraka, long-term player and trader in Spiral Knights, lately, the Auction House has been a bit boring, so I've decided to organize this event. Hopefully to help get the economy flowing, get players some good deals and have a good time!

Post Mortem from Last Auction
We had way more people turn up to the event than we expected, many people were scared to submit because they thought barely anyone was going to show up, however, we prove them wrong! The event was a huge success and many people got some sweet deals and sweet profits. However, we're making a few changes to this auction.

New Additions to the Auction

1. We're removing the dynamic auction, while it was interesting at first, the feedback to it was not that great, Sealed and Reverse Auctions we're great though.
2. We've revamped the Live Auction Room to accommodate many more people.
3. We will only allow 1 late submission per person, we were lenient the last time we held this as it was the first showing of this event, however now that you guys know what to expect, there's no excuse for not submitting to me on time.
4. We're turning this into a monthly event! It will occur on the last Saturday of every month.
5. Slime Coin Auctions Added

Date and Location
25th of April, 2020 - Saturday - 2PM EST / 7PM GMT in the Dark City Guild Hall. We will open the hall 30 minutes prior to the event for people to congregate, chat, get ready, and answer any questions or misconceptions regarding the auctions. This event will go on until all items have been sold, there is no telling how long this will take. The last event took upwards of 3 hours, even if you're late you will not miss all of the auctions.

The Live Auction Itself
We will go through the list of submissions in the form at the bottom of this post, and everyone's items will be sold! Details on how submissions works are at the bottom of this node. I will be auctioning my things first so that you guys get a feel for how this thing works.

Different Types of Auctions - More Fun!
Sellers! there are different ways you can have your item auctioned. You may want to think about what type of auction is best for your item(s). My items will be mostly Classic, but I will mix it up from time to time. If you're attending looking to buy something, you may want to think about how you should handle each situation.

Buyers! To bid, we will be using zone chat, this makes it clearer who has bid what and no one can get confused.

Classic Auction - Everyone knows the current bid, the highest bidder when the time expires wins the item.

Sealed Auction - Everyone mails their bid to me, they only get to bid ONCE. No one knows who won until time expires. The highest bidder after time expires wins the item. There's a lot more thought to bidding in this type of auction. I'll keep sellers updated with the highest bid as this goes on.

Reverse Auction - I declare a really high price for said item and decrease every few seconds, the first one to say "Sold!" or "Me!" or whatever, wins the item.

Golden Slime Coin Auction - You must bid in Golden Slime Coins!

General Rules
Violating any of the rules may result in disqualification from auctions and the following giveaway.
1. No Trollbidding - Don't bid something and not follow up on it.
2. Be Human - You guys know how to treat people, no need to be mean and rude.
3. Please follow the rules of each auction type. Do not try to cheat.

BEFORE YOU SUBMIT

1. This is a live auction, it's possible that your items go for trash prices, while we will do our best to advertise this event just like last time, even with a huge turnout of players this can still happen.
2. When you submit you're agreeing that anything can happen at a live auction, you are also agreeing to trade your item to the winner for whatever price your item goes for. If you do not make the trade, we cancel the rest of the your auctions.
3. You need to show up to the event so that you can auction your items and make the trades with the players, if you're unable to show up at the given time, speak with me.
