I wanted to toss out a "thank you" from the GM side of things.

Thank you to the players -- we saw a lot of comraderie and kindness behind the scenes and it was a joy to see this going on during the auction. Thank you for understanding our need to snuff actions and speech. I completely understand the frustration or disappointment at not being able to express yourself or speak aloud, but for those of us who ran and/or watched the auction, our eyes truly thank you. It helped streamline things, allowed us to see your whispers so that we could address questions, and gave us more time to handle the actual auction rather than scroll back through our buffer to see what we missed. To those who bid on and won any of my items, thank you. I hope you enjoy them for years to come!

To the GMs -- thank you to all of you who helped make my items come true! From QC to implementation, scripting questions to feature creeping, loresongs and messaging assistance - I apprecate each one of you. Thank you for being a part of it all. And, thank you for the hard work and energy you put into the event this weekend. You guys are the best. Now -- go sleep. <3

I solved this by just whispering my commentary & everything to the Auctioneer(s). Which I'm sure they appreciated (.snert) to no end.

You GM folk are truly the best.

And thank you, Haliste, for delivering something I've wanted forever and didn't even know was going to exist until the auctioneer said it.

Also, I forgot to mention earlier...

... but Spente, Baroqe and Dett are the best auctioneer names ever.

Thanks for noticing! I have to admit, I was definitely chuckling to myself about them. :)

I had a chuckle at that, myself. Forgot to add kudos for that, as well. (Spent, Broke and Debt!)

I kept trying to "whisper baroge" until I realized that it was a Q.

See, I knew you'd do that. It was completely intentional.

Such an awesome event. Thank you to everyone involved! You guys rocked. I had a great time watching so many amazing items go out, and happy that they all seemed to go to people who will truly cherish them.

I adore my fire gown to itty bitty flaming pieces.. all it needs is an update to randomly light people on fire :)

+1 on the auctioneer names, you guys cracked me up
