DNF$ Live Auction Friday

**Fearless** · 02-03-2003, 09:22 AM

This Friday at 10:00AM CST we will have the first live auction where payment is by DNF$.

Shortly we will have a page to list up to 2 names for the auction.

You will have until 30 minutes prior to the auction to list.

Some people have accumulated so many DNF$ just as some people have accumulated so many real $. Using that logic we shouldn't have the auctions for real $.

That said, my primary purpose for this is to troubleshoot the auction system.

Great to see this actually happening. I've sold every name offered in the $USD auction and I expect to sell a couple on the DNF$ auction each time as well.

FYI, if you need 'DNF Bucks for the auction:

... get 'em early, as prices are moving higher due to demand.

Have fun!

not a bad idea.

As even name paid by dnf dollars can still be resold on the real money market.

goodluck!

Right - thanks for bringing that up. If people want to acquire DNF$ before they have 'earned' them - they can of course purchase them as well. There are usually several different offers going on in the that thread - and 'stocdoc' is religious about keeping it current. Actually - he has a DNF$ 'Alter & Shrine' at his house - which I personally find quite odd. However he is a good friend - so I try my best to just overlook it.

Yeah Popper I pray every time before making a DNF$ purchase.

Gregr, we should have an incremental bidding system like the $USD auction. The current minimum increments on DNF$ auctions is 5 DNF$ (established to restrict posts just to earn points). But I'd suggest at least 10 DNF$ increments in this new auction.

The increments are intentionally left the same to tax the auction system for troubleshooting.

I entered the first two names - woohoo! I made DNF history.

Just added my two (2) "DNF Bucksies" domains!

Thanks for adding the fun, second weekly auction, Greg. To much success.
See you.

Hello?? Ozone, perhaps you should call Greg on Monday with YOUR plans for next week ... then, I'm sure, he'd most definitely accomodate YOU and your schedule. What WAS he thinking?

Just kidding ... be

Thanks.

id like to know this as well - ive been searching for ages on google for a timezone site but cant find anything - lol

**Mr Webname** · 02-04-2003, 07:57 AM

I believe CST is 6 hours behind GMT so when its 10am CST it should be 4pm GMT.

I think you went the wrong direction.
