Well I guess we all know who has the bigger swartz.

You can have it.

(no offense to the forum) but I can probably find better advertising than this for $2000+ a week.


Congrats Inaba, its been fun!

Or 10 @ 20.25, whichever works.

Round numbers are for suckers.

10 @ 20.31

...like a trip to Hawaii, a mid 90's Toyota, or 20 pairs of GUNNARS...

you better buy yourself something nice with this money Theymos

ACTUALLY...

now that I have half of the advertising slots im starting to think I need a nice even number


10 LOOKS REALLY NICE.

so lets re-bid!

10 @ 20

im not sure, the reasoning behind my bidding was to get half of the advertising slots
just like inaba is insistent of having the majority of advertising slots

I know poor theymos is just trying to keep the peace but now that we have 10 slots I still want half of them

5 @ 20

When I wrote


I was thinking that the 2 extra slots would be sold at 15, though you're right that this is inconsistent with how it usually works. I think I'll leave it at

4 15 cablepair
6 13.25 Inaba

unless cablepair or Inaba objects.

Technically, shouldn't that be

I am only asking for half....

4 @ 13

Ok ok.. 6 @ 12.25

Yeah, I saw that, but it seemed pretty obvious what he wanted.

Inaba's bet is not yet valid.

This is a long auction, lasting ~12 days.

In order to collect more money for the creation of good forum software, the forum is selling ad space in the area beneath the first post of every topic page.

Ads this week will be allowed to contain any non-annoying HTML/CSS style. No images, JavaScript, or animation (no marquee or blinking). Ads must appear 3 or fewer lines tall in my browser. Ads will be prefixed with "Advertisement:". Ad text may not contain lies, misrepresentation, or inappropriate language. Ads may not link directly to any NSFW page. Ads may be rejected for other reasons.

There are 10 total ad slots which are randomly rotated. So one ad slot has a one in ten chance of appearing. Eight of the slots are for sale here. Ads appear only on topic pages with more than one post, and only for people using the default theme.

The ad lasts 7 days starting from when I put it up.

Auction rules

Post your bids in this thread. Prices must be stated in BTC per slot. You must state the max number of slots you want. When the auction ends, the highest bidders will have their slots filled until all eight slots are filled.

So if someone bids for 8 slots @ 5 BTC and this is the highest bid, then he'll get all 8 slots. If the two highest bids are 8 slots @ 4 BTC and 1 slot @ 5 BTC, then the first person will get 7 slots and the second person will get 1 slot.

- When you post a bid, the bids in your previous posts are considered to be automatically canceled. You can put multiple bids in one post, however.
- All bid prices must be evenly divisible by 0.25.
- The bidding starts at 0.5.
- The auction end time is 06:00:00 on September 10, UTC. Countdown. (The end time may be extended -- see below.)
- If two people bid at the same price, the person who bid first will have his slots filled first.
- Bids are considered invalid and will be ignored if they do not specify both a price and a max quantity, or if they could not possibly win any slots

If any valid bids occur less than 30 minutes before the auction end time, then the auction will be extended by 30 minutes. If any valid bids occur less than 30 minutes before the new end time, then the auction will be extended again, etc. The time will not extend beyond 6 hours total.

You must pay for your slots within 24 hours of receiving the payment address. Otherwise your slots may be sold to someone else.
