I bid 150 coins in the ongoing Victory Auction.


I think an explanation of the state of this auction is in order.

I accidentally started this as a Forward Auction, meaning that the person who bid the second highest would receive the legislative card. This isn't great, but it does work if anyone who bid too high withdraws before they are compelled to pay win card prices for a legislative card.

Players caught onto this and were bidding lower in order to receive the legislative card before any competition started for the win card.

Fast forward a little bit and the three people competing for the victory card were ATMunn with 1111 coins, Falsifian with 1100 coins, and me with 950 coins. When there were 14 hours left in the auction I privately contacted Falsifian to inform em to either bid or withraw so that e wouldn't pay 1100 coins for a legislative card. E did so, and I followed suit.

As it turns out, ATMunn only bid 1111 because it was a funny number, so e withdrew as well. This would allow the players who had been competing for second place to get the victory card for a little more than a hundred coins, which is far less than it is worth in this economy.

I exhort you, if you are even kind of interested in the victory subgame, please bid. You will likely never see this low of a going price and this little competition (Falsifian, ATMunn, and I cannot rejoin the auction since withdrawing is permanent).

If you're not into the subgame itself, Falsifian has a deal out to pay 1000 coins for one victory card (there are a few layers of indirection, but I'm sure Falsifian would be willing to explain to you how to redeem them).
