stratochamp

Daimajin

Here are the remaining valid bets:

faro: $526.70

Mars: $950

Ethesis: $1250

AdderMcOne: $890

grodog: $1063.38

MrFilthyIke: $1200

killjoy: $1142.65

KingOfPain: $740

jagd: $713

Prufrock: $925

Xaxaxe: $987.65

mbassoc2003: $815

tfm: $1175

deimos3428: $1234.56

Deadlord36: $1100

bclarkie: $855

Umm...I don't actually care, but Ethesis is too close to me as well.

Either he can change his or I'll change mine to 1225...maybe we should enforce precise $25 increments in the future. But then my random number generator might break. :)

Since deimos was first, we'll have to bump Ethesis up to $1259.

So you really do like american football, although that would probably get you at least a 15 yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.

yeah

lets do it bloodbowl style :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Are we nearly there yet?

I noticed my $780 did not make the list. Does that mean I'm on the outside looking in?

And I could've bought these damn modules off the 1$ rack!!!

Since I can't move $25 up or down from mine without bumping someone, I'll go in at $1025.00 I should be far enough away there. :D

Bets were supposed to be in by midnight EST last Sunday. But I'd be happy to let you in if none of the other bettors disagrees.

What do you guys think?

Doesn't seem ( unless I'm adding wrong ) to be any place to put a bid near what I originally had unless I go over the max atm or being with $25 of another so I guess I have to drop out. Good luck to the remaining folks !

Are we going to do this again for the Fazzlewood that is up? I think that would be more interesting. Having never seen this up for auction before I have no sense at all what it will bring in.

Is the other one that's up a fake?

This week I've been mostly eating . . . The white ones with the little red flecks in them.

No idea, but I don't think so, it sounds like it's just poorly described/photographed. I'm seriously considering giving this hobby up and collecting "D&D forgeries" instead...should be cheaper! Though I suppose some scumbag might send me a legit module... :roll:
