Why did I lie? Like I said, I was completely and utterly frustrated. I have literally been battling this nickel and dime shit all day, and was tired of it. I couldn't figure it out, and I didn't care anymore. What can I say? I've been at work all day, and frustration from one bled onto the other. Not optimal, but thats what happened.
As far as my reads, I have Ethos and Seacore as town.
I have IceGuy as scum.
Everyone else is null to me.
I pmed about Oracle. You all will have it when I do.
I will try to figure out the missing $2.Irritating Jerry since 1991-

Day two started and wage recievement = $90. Remaining funds = $117.
Bid on nightkill = $116 + $1 penatly fee. Remaning funds = $116
Recievement of investment = $75. Remaining funds = $191
Bid on nightkill = $190 + $1 fee.
It all adds up.
That is exactly how I had it in my head, but as Peregrine pointed out, the bolded part makes no sense.Irritating Jerry since 1991-

Just confirming, by the rest you mean the rest of your remaining funds, ie. $100?The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.-

Unless I'm mistaken the above proves that cop was sold for $95 therefore I don't see how it's possible your bid of $97 lost it, care to explain please MS?The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.-

- Ability to be the only one who knows what the current bid is for all the auctions. It will be hidden from everyone else. But the high bidder will know if they are the high bidder x1
- Ability to know how much money someone has at the start of next night phase x3
- Watcher x1
- You can receive all of the abilities a player had when they died x1
- An addition to Night Kill. If you NK with this ability also in use, you can kill through one ability that would stop the kill from working x2
- Night-kill x 1
- Roleblocker x 3
- You can block kills on every other player, except on yourself. This cannot be blocked. If you are targeted for a NK when using this, no protection can save you. x1
- Every living player gets $200. x1
- You can freeze a players vote for a day on anyone (except for no lynch) x1
The last 4 abilities are the ones that will be delayed (in order) by kills/advertisements.Irritating Jerry since 1991-

Something does not click in a focused read through.
Ghost- how in theworldcan you have gotten Cop, if that is the first thing I tired bidding for with all that I had, and was still outbid? You'd have to have had more then 100$ to have gotten it...
How do you respond?
/serious question
I placed only one bid that day and that was to clean out everything for Cop: $99+ $1 fee. I don't know honestlywhythe bid only ended up at $95 if you bid $97 before deadline. I can't explain that."You live for the fight when it's all that you've got."--Bon Jovi, Living on a Prayer-

MS: If you want to know the logic inheritent in that; $99 is the max anyone can bid for any ability and still be town. By placing a $99 bid on a commidity that both town and scum would want (if you get Cop, you have no need for II); we could tell if it was more likely in the person I knew was town's hands or scum hands."You live for the fight when it's all that you've got."--Bon Jovi, Living on a Prayer-

I'm honestly confused now.
Pre-Edit:
What are you talking about?
Look above. That's my logic for bidding $99.
As to the confusion, that really makes two of us. I'm honestly confused why it went for $95 instead of $97.

The ending bid of $95 for 1. Cop x 2 from D1 is correct.-

Okay, I went into my sent message box, and I got it covered. The irony of it all is, this all would have been avoided if I remembered my own bids.
I bid max $24 on oracle AND setup info. Totally forgot I did that. I was outbid, and I increased my bid to a max of $41. Still not the high bidder, so I gave up on that and took out a CD.
The rest is as previously stated.Irritating Jerry since 1991-

I know that this may sound highly selfish but I'm hoping we can move the targeted deadline backwards by 24 hours thereby aiming for 10 days worth of bonuses rather than 11 because I won't have any access to the internet for the next 24 hours and to be perfectly honest I am having severe doubts over HN being scum. Everyone needs to voice their opinions in regards to the Ghostlin and Midnight inconsistency because I myself am having massive issues making two cents of it all.The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.-

What inconsistency?
Either Midnight posted his bidmuchtoo late for it to matter, he's mistaken about the amount he bid, or he's lying about bidding (or what he bid for) Cop.
I don't see how me winning a bid when I bid $99+$1 on an auction means much of anything to alter the any of the three above since the mod just said the closing bid was correct."You live for the fight when it's all that you've got."--Bon Jovi, Living on a Prayer-

Here is a question Ms, at what time did you send in the bid, and did the mod send a pm back to you stating that you have 1 less dollar because you were outbid?
And frankly the only people that I trust right now are Seacore, Ethos, and ghost. I also do not believe Hn is most likely scum, but he is not a town read either.ShowTown - 8/12

@Ghostlin
Or maybe it's the fourth option of, he actually did bid for cop like he said, with the amount he said, and was fucked at the auction- royally.
As for how it might alter it- it wouldn't be to far out of the ordinary to wonder how you say you bidded 99$ and claim to hold said ability, when said ability was won with $95...
But then again, while it's not to far out there, itdoesseem to be pretty much near to the norm, so what the hay.
@Hiphop
If your asking for exact times- you can forget it. That's dangerously too close to Rule 6 for my comfort.
I will say though, that I waited a couple days(Early 30th to be exact) before I went for it, seeing as it seemingly had no one bidding on it at the time I sent it. It was only a matter of short moments that I got a reply back from the mod saying my first bid didn't take, so I tried again, and a short time later, and the same thing happened- so I tired going for something else, because third time's the charm was just not going to cut it.
And yes- I lost a dollar each time I bidded for that mofo.
Happy Spidey boy?

So what day did you bid the $97? If it was any day before the deadline, alarm bells should have gone off in your head.
Ghostlin why did you claim cop, when you still have a use remaining?

I just said I re-bid shortly after I got the pm stating I lost the bid the first time...
Also- alarm bells did tingle my insides: but since I had no idea at the time, if it was another Townie that bid much smarter then me, like Bidding 99$ straight out instead of playing the poke-it-with-a-stick-and-see-if-moves game, or a scum who bid way more then that to get it right off, I couldn't know till later.
But seeing as how shortly after I bid for the Governor auction, I lost inter-web connection for almost an entire week, I couldn't very well do anything about it till after I got back.W/L/O
