European auction

[parwold]

Any chance of us 'europeans' having an auction at a reasonable time for us. The normal auction time of 7 on sat night equates to 1 or 2 am Sunday morning GMT, how about a midweek auction say on a wednesday at 11 pm GMT = 5 pm noneurope, just a suggestion!

 

[Ed30]

The auction time needs to change to accommodate us Europeans. I fell asleep before the start of last weeks one. If I had have seen it through I'd would have been up til about 4am - that's clearly ridiculous. The people on mainland Europe are almost totally excluded being one or two hours ahead of GMT.
Gregr please take note.

I think you could hold one on say, Wednesday at 13:00 cst and still have a full compliment of North Americans. Heck it seems like 90% of the NA's that work outside the house, are on from work all day anyway.

midweek is no good - but there needs to be a weekend time that can accommodate all members.

THIS WAS MY POST ON SUNDAY MORNING ..... AFTER THE AUCTION....... AND THE REST OF EUROPE IS ANOTHER HOUR OR THREE IN FRONT OF U.K. GMT
THAT MAKES THEM ABOUT 7 1/2 HOURS IN FRONT OF CMT
(WITH THEIR FULLY LOADED WALLETS)

i was very impressed with the auction, and learned a lot on how to get a good bid on a name!!

i also bid & won three domains..... (must have been the Malt Whiskey).... and eventually passed out at 4.a.m.GMT..(10 PM CMT) so missed the last part !!
!!where can i view the auction results ..???

congratulations are in order to GREGR..... as even with a few glitches because i,m running WINXP... i was able to get a good
view of what seems like a potentially excellent resource!!
