Auction got sniped with 10sec left?


I don't understand the sniping.  If I want something, I'm going to bid all my tokens on it and it won't matter if I get outbid immediately or with 10 seconds left, right?

Twitter challenge winners = Random

Winners are randomly selected. We have had one person win 6 of the 17 challenges so far (we are on 18 now, but have not seleted winners yet) but this is pretty odd. Many people have won 2-4 times. Twittering an answer in each challenge definitely improves your odds. :)




:devil:


Does that mean you are randomly picked before they read your anwser? So cleverness is not neccesary?

What do you guys think the chances are that I'll get anything Bioware branded for 4000 points? Anything at all.

Slim to none. You can get over 5k without getting any clicks or Twitter wins. Unless you were up at 4AM - almost the entire country's internet went out (expect for yours and Bioware's).
I wouldn't be entirely surprised if we see something go for under 8k. But under 7k? I doubt it.

I'd like to think it's both. But I know it's random.  I think someone posted they answered "Enchantment!" for a win.

thats not the point of an auction.  and auction is where you try and get something for the lowest price possible.  try looking at ebay.  You see stuff worth $500 going for around $40 untill the last 20min or so

If you outbid someone in the last 10 seconds, they don't have much time to outbid you.


If you're going all-in, the best tactic is definately to wait until the last possible second: Example

 I'll repost my thread that got locked down:

BioWare Bazaar auction = Pushing the button on Lost

Anyone else feel like they have to keep checking their computer every 15 minutes or an electromagnetic pulse will destroy reality?  At least in Lost, they got 108 minutes.
Oh, and please push my button:bandit:

Lol, I didn't even make it 1 second.  Although I was just testing to see if I was capable of at least getting my bid accepted.

Here is a link explaining how.


























(Really. If you clicked that time not knowing what it was, you're sort of an idiot.)
