UOF AUCTION HOUSE NEW SERPS HOLD LOCATION

[Budcookie]

We had a great player turn out tonight and sold 1.8 million in player items, good job guys.

This auction is the shit.

I'm not a fan of the house design (designing houses is fucking hard) but I love what you're doing here.

More people need to get out for this

 

[Budcookie]

I have to fix a few things to make it easier to enter but it is good upstairs

 

[Don Key]

Yes, upstairs was very well done. Especially when you consider the logistics of what you are doing. I would love to design an auction hall but housing space is limited. Would be cool if the GMs could hook you up with an already existing building to run these in. Maybe someday.

Maybe a group of people could organize several auctions on an 'auction day' so that more people could participate in them. Where items not bid on would just end up in the next auction of the day.

 

[Budcookie]

I have changed the entrances to make it easier and now there are stairs instead of the teles to go up.

 

[Don Key]

Can't wait to check it out.

I never know when the auctions are. I always see Budcookie talking about auctions, but NEVER plugging when the next one will be. Shove it in our faces man, let us know! Also the house is difficult to find. I do have a rune there but it took a long time to be able to find someone gating in WBB and to mark the rune myself.

IMO you need a vendor selling runes at the site (if you don't already), and walking instructions in your sig. Also always update your sig with the time of the next auction. Exposure exposure exposure!! Every single time you mention the auction house, or post in general for that matter, state the time & place of the next auction!

 

[Budcookie]

I will certainly inundate you guys with auction info like I did the first couple, I blame the Royals, who knew we would be kicking so much ass in the post season. Not to worry, winter is coming. People will be inside a lot more over the next few months, I am kinda hoping I will have a thread stickied before the end of the year.

 

[Don Key]

I would also suggest a way for people to browse the auction in the days leading up to it. Similar to how auctions work IRL

 

[Budcookie]

Yes, there again a stickied thread would be perfect, otherwise I need to make a website with a spreadsheet or something.

 

[Don Key]

No, I mean in game.

Like in a display case. People could come check out what's up for auction.

I bet not even half of the players on this server read the forums.

 

[Budcookie]

I could probably work something out with my other house

 

[Budcookie]

HERE IT IS FOLKS, PM ME TO ADD ITEMS FOR NEXT WEEKS AUCTION.

 

[Don Key]

Can that chest be locked down so that it could be viewed throughout the week or days in between auctions?

 

[Don Key]

Also, bad ass. This will be really awesome.

 

[Budcookie]

Umm I can come up with something yes.

 

[halygon]

Keep it up @Budcookie - glad to see that your hard work is paying off.

 

[Anton [TBH]]

That's one of my favorite buildings in the game and I've never seen it used.
Great job @Budcookie and hats off to the Devs for picking out a great spot.

Can that chest be locked down so that it could be viewed throughout the week or days in between auctions?

hum if its locked and not secured, access set to anyone, we can look but not retrieve anything, i think

 

[Budcookie]

Problem is at some point I have to change it and in that window the items are stealable
