Lol. I used to think I just had to get to 9k. XD


Well, that used to be the case before everyone's token count got inflated, then the average price to win something went up about 1000 tokens. Well, there's still tomorrow when the ref links get reset. Then you'll get another 500+ and maybe win something nice, like a set of books.<3


Even if I don't win anything, I've encountered a great group of people, so it's all good! <3<3

Watching the last few auctions I think I smell panic in the air. 11,000 in the first couple of seconds. This is getting a little wild.


I'm bidding for the hoodie and there is definitely some panic flowing through my veins. The hoodie has been my white whale for the auction's duration, and I would have had it like three times if my twitter contest rewards had taken less than 24 hours to be added to my account. It's become my obsession.

Fully expecting to get sniped as soon as I click 'submit.'

Edit: Yep. Delicious.

Sniping appears to be the only way to win anything.



that is a false and true statement...


sniping seems to be the only way because everyone seems to think that they can save tokens for something...

if one simply bids what they have then they will win it if they have more than others do who want that item.


the concept of snipe protection is also false in a way...

this concept only matter for you if you are the one with more tokens.. in which case in theory you could have put that total down to begin with and gotten same result.



True this doesn't seem very much like an auction. It seems more like people standing around saying "hey look my tokens are bigger then your tokens."


Exactly its all a popularity contest. Bioware is paying all of us for the advertising, and many are going around unpaid.


anyone running around with the high end tokens... 15k and above.... and most of us in fact here didnt even have the clicks that gave us tokens even read...
we got most of our clicks from lists... and tricking our friends who prolly never went past the age screen..

and by the lovely people in this forum especially the LNVS who have been mad clicking echange...

no advertising there... just spam.

Well, you always have to look at the good side of things, right. Still, I'll be sad if you don't get to win anything.:crying:

I'm gonna go quiet for a little bit, I'll keep clicking for anyone that's in here. I just need to take some breaks from being right in front of the computer at least for an hour.

Agree completely. All of my clicks have come from this forum because I don't have facebook or anything like that so I thank everyone here for any success that I've had.

Hope you're online when the desktop comes up.  While I want to win it, I'd hate to win it because you needed sleep. :(

Hopefully it did since I just clicked it!

I'll be back later on. The daily counts reset after midnight, right?

Yep the bundling was a bad idea, it would have been better to run the auction a bit differently, longer even, and unbundle because those that don't win will just end up being pissed off.

I'm probably done now that I've missed my chance for the hoodie again, so I just want to say that while I haven't posted much beyond begging for clicks, its been wonderful to follow this community for the past few days. I wouldn't presume to consider myself a part of it as I haven't added much in the way of content, but I really admire the camaraderie of all of you. It's a great community.

Feelin' a little maudlin over here :/ Haven't slept since the auction's beginning.

Yeah, honestly, I've probably never posted this much before. Maybe I should come here more often, it's been a fun evening hanging out with all you crazies.
