Hi there,

This is a bit of a strange one, I know. I am (was) a pretty well known Android developer over on XDA. I started a team called VillainROM, and one of our projects was to build a guide/news site.

Due to some great media attention from some big names (and actually XDA themselves), our site became quite popular for a period of time. We have both a free and premium Android app on the Play Store, which simply pulls the news from the site itself.

The site was designed entirely by myself, and the CMS built by a friend of mine. It could do with a few coding touch ups here and there but it looks nice, it functions as intended, and in the early days made us $100 a month in adwords. The annoying thing is, if I had had more time to develop it and grow it, I'm certain it'd have made quite a lot more.

Sadly, it hasn't seen a new article or guide since last Summer. That being said, it's still maintained some 2100 followers on Twitter, and really has the potential to be an excellent site. I'm hoping someone on here has what it takes to really grow it into the site it has the potential to be.

So... what exactly is up for auction here? :

- The domain name
- The Website itself, including its custom built Content Management System
- The Android application (free and paid versions) : NOTE - The source has been lost due to hard drive failure
- Full source code/PSD/ownership of the design and code

Bidding starts at 1BTC for the lot.
