This auction ended at Tue, 10 Oct 2017 19:30:33 -0400, with the following bids: * o, 1 sh., for emself. * o, 80 sh., for emself. (Incuded a blurb.) * G., 1,010 sh. for emself. G. wins the auction. G., you have seven days to pay Agora to acquire the Estate of Dawsbergen. > As is my custom, I pledge as follows: > > * If there is exactly one winning bid, and if that bid includes a blurb > describing the region of Dawsbergen, of at least 70 words, I will include > that blurb in at least one future Surveyor’s report if it is possible for me > to do so.

I have an outstanding intent to withdraw this pledge. However, I’ll hold off for a day or so to give people a chance to evaluate my wording change and my actions in this message. I _believe_ I reworded my pledge a bit relative to last month to avoid being obligated to pay players who do not submit blurbs; G.’s bid did not include a blurb, so I believe I did not pledge to pay em any amount of shinies. -o
