Haggle - a game of trading and secrets

[Doctor_Who]

I’ll go 10 for one of those S’s.

[chrisk]

@chrisk

Oh boy. I think I noticed the list of rules, but didn’t actually clue in that that wasn’t every rule that was up for auction. :smack:

Well, since you already had the info on those rule slips, I think it can be fixed. I’ll take 16 points off your IOU, rule slips 1 and 13 will be burned, and rule slip 17 now passes to USCDiver, the true high bidder, for a price of 5 points. He finally won something!

I’ll wait a little while for any objections to this plan before locking it in and PMing the rule content.

Dragoness, thanks for the tip, I’ve logged in both of those trades from post 475, including the rule showing one with Doctor Who

Good think I had the morning off of work today!

Probably didn’t wait long enough to give USCDiver a fair chance to show up, but I wanted to get this sorted out before I leave to visit relatives. The diver has been PMed rule 17.

[USCDiver]

Ok, now I’m confused. What are the current bids for S cards? and how many are there?

[nesta]

Bid 17 for an S.

[Hal_Briston]

@USCDiver

Ok, now I’m confused. What are the current bids for S cards? and how many are there?

There are three S cards. It looks like the bids are (unofficially, of course – I defer to chrisk in all matters):

nesta with 17
Uncommon Sense with 16
Doctor Who with 10

Therefor, I will bid 11. Making the standings now:

nesta with 17
Uncommon Sense with 16
Hal Briston with 11

[USCDiver]

I bid 12

[Hal_Briston]

Oh, hell with it – 18.

I believe that puts it at:
Hal Briston with 18
nesta with 17
Uncommon Sense with 16

[USCDiver]

17 for an S

[Doctor_Who]

I’ll go 19.

[Doctor_Who]

D1138 Offer #15: USCDiver - even switch - the S I own currently for your O.

Also, to sum up the bidding as it stands:
Doctor Who with 19
Hal Briston with 18
**nesta **with 17 (USCDiver’s bid was after this, so nesta’s stands).

[USCDiver]

@Doctor Who

D1138 Offer #15: USCDiver - even switch - the S I own currently for your O.

Hmm, interesting move good Doctor in the midst of the S-card auction. However, I see that it is mutually beneficial for the both of it. You moreso than me perhaps but all in all I think a good deal. Good luck in the S card auction if you still need one.

I accept, Doctor Who gets one of my O cards, I get his S card

[chrisk]

@Doctor Who

Also, to sum up the bidding as it stands:
Doctor Who with 19
Hal Briston with 18
**nesta **with 17 (USCDiver’s bid was after this, so nesta’s stands).

This matches with my own perusal of the thread.

Topping to get us back on page 1.

Heading into Toronto today - there’ll be net access in the hotel and I’ve got my laptop, so I’ll check in from there.

[NAF1138]

when does the closing bell ring chrisk?

[Hal_Briston]

Looks to me like it should have already closed. At 7:38 am yesterday, chrisk said it would “[last] until whenever I get internet access tomorrow”. I had expected his earlier post today to say that it was closed, but I guess it’s running until he gets to the hotel (enjoy Toronto, btw!).

[Uncommon_Sense]

20 pts for the S.

Exactly right. Auction is now over - winners are Uncommon Sense bidding 20 points, Hal Briston bidding 19 points, and Doctor Who bidding 18 points.

Toronto’s great so far. I took in a double-decker boat tour, and a boat cruise, and just got checked into my room.

Hey nesta, want to help your Rule #17 push? A G would be good for that.
Hal Offer #16: I’ll give you a G Card and a K Card in exchange for one of your spare I Cards.

[Dunderman]

OK, let’s run something up the flagpole and see who salutes it. In alphabetical order, I’m interested in the following cards:

C, D, E, M, N, O, U, Y

Takers?

I could be persuaded to give up an N. What do you have to offer?
