*jaw drop*

I felt like a tycoon when 1 of my characters had 600M. I should have bought perilx to show me how to make money.

So when am I going to find out what poor soul paid good inf to be forced to group with me?

I bought Peril from his owner
For a discount too! 25 Million! -evil laughter-

Aww I should have been part of this.....then Escher wouldn't be at the bottom of the list

Though that minimum 100K bid thing kept me away from having someone waste that much inf.

Sigh... last on the list. It's almost enough to give a bug a complex or something...

better to be last on the list ... than not on the list at all.

(of course, I blame Voo for that. He's such an elitist.)

Peterbilt,
I hope you're kidding. I'm pretty sure I'm the antithesis of elitist. Far better examples meandering about in-game for that kind of action.

'stacio,
When's the next one?


And/Or/Also, were such high amounts thrown about because of the idea of the event, or mostly because it was for the PERC cause? Doubt Rednames would have been there if it weren't for the PERC aspect, but they didn't fetch as much as one would guess they would IMO.

Personally, I think it was "just because".

Voodoo... I asked you to sign up to be auctioned off, and you refused, don't be a tease!

I think people liked the idea of the auction regardless of who was hosting it, it was a fun new event never before on Victory (that I am aware of). I also think people liked the idea that a portion of the auctioned inf was going towards more events on Victory. It's very tough to organize events when you have no bank (I mean I give out stuff of my own "pocket" like I did for the auction, but it's impossible to ask every rep to do that). So now Victory has a very good size bank to host events with

Didn't realize my own power.....I wasn't intending to tease

We've been over this I believe. You brought it up aeons ago and things change. Also, your reasons were not pure-of-heart; I am not the elephant man!

*taps sarcasm meter.*

Yep, damn things broken ... again! (And yes, that was a clumsy attempt at humor [or humour as some would say]. But then, aren't they all?)

attempts? or humourous?

Can never be too careful. I've been accused of far worse things by people who actually thought they knew stuff.

I take it all incredibly seriously though and it pains me every time.









Seriously.

Speaking of next time, I have a thought. Since this event WAS so popular (and if I didn't say it before, good job!), it follows the next one may be even more popular. Now this doesn't sound like a problem until you hit multiple instances.

The only solution I've been able to idly ponder for this is having a 2nd MC and set of banks ready, with the MC at least on vent with MP. Won't solve door prize issues, so maybe someone else may have a better solution.


It's not how many times you get knocked down that count. It's how many times you get up.

Thanks for the thought IK. I did have a contingency plan in place in case the event spawned multiple instances. I appreciate you looking out. The next auction will probably be about one year from now, or if people are begging for it, maybe in six months.

Wewt! Since MP is technically 2nd Chair and belongs to all servers...Arctic and Myself (the Victory P.E.R.C. reps) really appreciate you running this for us and future Reps.

And as a Side note Stay tuned to the forums for an anoucement about the next P.E.R.C. event.

It's my brother, @Elegost. TECHNICALLY it was me (until he pays me back) but I called him and told him the auction was going on and he told me to put the bid down for him. He hasn't had his computer/internet since the auction so he hasn't seen any of this. I'm sure he'll PM you when he's back in business.

Although I was the one to buy my brother anyways... supposin' I could force him to share his time with Ocho with me >.>

Ele was at his woman's house during the auction. She lives in BFE, so internet was a no-go. He texted his brother to bid on TehVIII, and he planned on paying with his redside bank, but silly bro decided to pay blueside >.<

I *should* be back to CoHLand sometime around the middle of this week, college and junk stacking up a bit.

Hopefully I'll tie the rope around TehVIII and drag him through some IW funtimes this week and next week. That's the plan anyway, nothing peril-like. I heard the stories, and you sir, are a mean one.

Peril is indeed a mean one. I won't get into details but Talnar and myself successfully completed our four hours of servitude.

I feel so dirty....

Sorry I wasn't there; I actually forgot about he event, and no one emailed me, PM'd me, or shouted at me in chat about it. I'm actually extremely surprised that I drew that much money, but now that I know who the lucky winner was, I'm not only honored but also blushing.

I didn't buy or win anything but that was the most fun I've had in CoH for like 2 years.

Seriously though, looking forward to this event. Hopefully I'll be able to make it on time to see how much inf Avatea commands, as well as my own meagre contribution.
you're lucky i wasn't there.

you'd have been doing the rwz challenge on a level 5 for 4 hours if it was up to me.


actually no, i would have made you do that really bad thing, whatcha call it again? pvp?
