It's almost Auction time!! Volunteers needed :)

Hi everyone! For the past two years, I have run Victory's character/player auction. I plan to run it again this year (on Dec 3rd). I am looking for people who would like to be auctioned off or for donations of services, team spots, prizes, etc.

Those who wish to be auctioned:
You must be willing to spend 4 hours with whoever buys you. It can be in chunks of 1 hour, 2, hours, or 4 hours... whatever is mutually agreeable. You must be willing to do whatever the buyer requests as long as it is acceptable under the TOS. PLing and inf farming are discouraged, but if you are okay with it, that is your choice. You will get 25% of the amount bid on you to keep for yourself (unless you choose to donate it back to PERC for future events). You do not need to be present at the auction to be an auctionee.
**note, I will not take any auctionees at the auction, so if you want to volunteer, you must do it ahead of time.

Those who wish to donate services:
This may include art, build designing, base building, shopping, costume designing, bio writing, etc. All services must be specific and must be completed within a reasonable time frame of the end of auction.

Those who wish to donate team spots:
You can offer up a spot on a team for a masters task force, to get a rare badge, etc. This should be something that is specific and special (aka a spot on a random team for 2 hours would not qualify). Please make sure if you are offering this that you have 7 people total (or less if you need less) who will be willing run this team.

Those who wish to donate prizes:
You may contact me and tell me what you wish to donate or email it to me in game with instructions. These donations can be anonymous or recognized, your choice.

This was an incredibly successful event last year and I was able to use lots of the inf generated to run other events and give out prizes. If you would like to volunteer for any of this, then please send me a PM (make sure to include your globals) or talk with me in game. I will not be taking volunteers straight from this thread. Thank you all!

I'll volunteer for this (to be auctioned).

I have experience with pretty much all of the task/strike forces in the game and have multiple characters across nearly all the servers, including several level 50s on Victory. My presence on Victory is primarily blue-side, but I do have one villain and could move a few heroes to vigilante given enough notice if a particular role was required for whatever the buyer wanted to do. I'm an avid badgehunter and would be more than happy to help organize and educate with respect to that aspect of the game as well. While I don't have the ability to offer a Master run TF team for the auction as my own schedule is somewhat erratic, I would also be more than willing to be a participant in such a run.

For reference, my Victory server characters:

  • Tin Mage Mk. V (Dark/Elec Tanker, 50, +3)
  • Babel Tin Mage (Sonic/Pain Corruptor, 50)
  • Bulwark Tin Mage (Shield/Stone Tanker, 50)
  • Spectral Tin Mage (Illusion/Empathy Controller, 50)
  • Orion Tin Mage (Gravity/TA Controller, 38)
  • Tectonic Tin Mage (Earth/Energy Dominator, 35)
  • Phoenix Tin Mage (Fire/Energy Blaster, 34)
  • Hyper Tin Mage (KM/EA Brute, 31)
  • Big Time Barnes (AR/Traps Corruptor, 30) - villain
  • Jagged Tin Mage (Spines/Elec Scrapper, 22)
  • Forever Tin Mage (Time/Beam Defender, 18)
  • Glacial Tin Mage (Gravity/Cold Controller, 18)
  • Shadow Tin Mage (Dark/Psi Defender, 16)
  • T1N M4G3 (Psy/Mental Blaster, 9)

I'd put myself up for bid, but I doubt anyone would want me.

i would be tempted to put myself up for auction, but i wont because if the same thing happens as the previous 2 years where one rich guy buys out everyone and makes them do silly things

i may be tempted to put up a MoITF run like last year though, still deciding

Oh that only happened 1 year. Peril doesn't even play any more, so stop making excuses! Sign up, you know you want to.

Last year, out of 28 people, Masque bought 3. You are quite inaccurate with your statement. Also you were not even auctioned last year, so stop raining on my parade and scaring others!

Fine, I'll ***** myself out.

Badges, Mo_, costumes, someone to laugh at bad jokes, critique fanfics, proofread thesis (I'm actually a pretty good technical writer/editor), there's no end to the pain I will endure for a good cause.

im fairly sure someone bought a majority of poeple last year if not masque

and i would still be extremely unhappy if someone bought me to make me pvp, and IIRC me and wac offered a MoITF run last year, so technically i did offer something last year lol

Count me in MP.

since word has reached me that pretty much all my posts on this were taken the wrong way...

i was not trying to discourage poeple from joining the event nor was i bashing the event. the previous events were very entertaining to watch and were quite fun (the first year of the event i ended up winning the jackpot raffle prize which was like 1.3 bil inf)

the point that i was trying to make was that i would only volunteer myself if i was not made to do something i very much disliked such as PVP (this is when my first post got misinterpreted and it kinda fell apart there)

so i do apologize to MP if my post original post came across wrong (and what appeared to be arguing due to the original misinterpretation)

Maybe you are thinking about Masque and I having secret standing bids on everyone, not to buy them up and do evil things, but to raise the total bids. As already demonstrated in this thread, there are many people who would volunteer, but are afraid that no one would bid on them. That was our way of trying to allieviate those concerns and make all who participated feel apprciated. I intend to do the same this year.

Speaking of which, I've been slacking at ol' Wentworth's. Guess its time to get to work.

And count me in MP. I'll get with you in game as well as I think I have more prize donations.


There are better people in worse shape....
