    Something to think about...

    I just spent a good part of the past hour trying to get onto the site... I've noticed it has lagged from time to time in the past as well. The question is: What happens if the site is down, meaning people can't put bids in? Might wanna think of an alternate way to submit bids, just in case we can't get on the site to place a bid, for some reason.

        I think if any problems occur, the flash auction should be immediately suspended til a later time/date - or extended for a longer period of time once the site comes back.

          If it ever becomes a major issue... I'll ensure it's fair.
          I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
          "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
          You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
          It was all
          true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
          He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
          mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

                  The answer is: ~Dummy has the highest bid at $69.00. Winner.

                    It is a problem we are working on trying to rectify.

                      Seriously, if I can't place a winning bid with fake money for a mini image of an internet avialable picture of some woman I will never meet, I will be pissed.

                        I'm just glad he only wrote one kind of short paragraph about the situation.

                          We have a team of big chested hot chicks working on the server right now. I think they spilled some baby oil on during the last oil wrestling fight causing the outages.

                            If you drop a slippery nipple into the servers you can expect some serious down time.

                              My source said it was Lecter and clump, and no chicks were present.
