It was more of a joke really...actually a comment made out of admiration.
Just let the mods sort it out...If you won and my interpretation is wrong...you deserve the name...
Aren't there extensions to the auction of five minutes per if bids are still being offered at the time of close?
I'll be interested to see how mods treat this as I plan more auctions in the near future.

4. You must specify an exact end time, of which time zone, and the date. NO "ends *hours after last bid" allowed. AT YOUR LEISURE, you may also allow for provisions of anti-sniping, so that a bid placed within the last 5 minutes of the auction would extend the auction by an additional 5 minutes to the clock. The standard to this rule, if its not exactly specified by the thread starter is this - 4 minutes remaining, bid placed, 5 minutes get added, so clock gives 9 total minutes till end of auction. If 1 minute or less is remaining, 5 minutes get added, so the clock gives 6 total minutes before auction closes. This is the standard to be used whereby anti-snipe is in place (and ONLY if anti-snipe is in place as would be stated by the auction holder). If anti-snipe is NOT clearly specified, it is not in effect. Anti-snipe is a new procedure in effect as of April 10, 2008 (4/10/2008).

According to this rule...Carter would win with the $191 bid. I pm'd moderator John for clarification...I will wait to hear from John.

According to the forum rules and OP information. Victory is the official winner (bid at 11:00AM EST) as there is no anti-sniping clause from the first post.
Thanks,
John
Next time is better if I invest my time in some serious auctions.
