We do fair play. :)
"If the winner doesn't reply/pay, the bid will be awarded to the bidder with the second highest bid." - FAQ
Your bid is valid and not blocked by @take5 's 5,001 STEEM. If he doesn't pay.
I don't know if @take5 is a troll-bid. My research shows he's not unknown. But I can be wrong. But as you can see, we have been deleting troll comments for 6 weeks now. Easy.
Is there any reason to not have users pay it upright, and when they get outbid, refund their bid?
It's not as banal as you think. You can build an auction script, but we wanted to concentrate 100% on the game.
Madness at the end.. :P
Bidding was fun after all,
It was an honor to participate auction of the great game!
At the moment, website doesn't work, (seems like it's down)
so I will just wait till these dusts settled down.
It is very late night / too early morning in here,
so it would be great if you guys announce the auction's result ASAP.
Thank you,
Keep up the hard work! :)
Yes, the final was really exciting and fun.
"It was an honor to participate auction of the great game!"
Thanks! I'd like to give that back. :)
See you in the game!
That sounds Convincing, sehr gut! :)
Oh, and just one more question,
if the game starts just after the last auction,
How&When the last auction's winner will receive the Legendary planet?
It's a question out of curiosity because I have no clue.
Thank you for your great communication,
Will be stay tuned for this great game. :)
The start can be delayed a little bit, because we have to wait for the money entrance. The 9 planets are then irretrievably assigned to the 9 buyer accounts by us and then the game starts. The planets are deposited in advance under the buyer's name and linked to the account during registration. That's it. :)
You're welcome! :)
