You are tied for second. Take heart, though, I am quite sure the bidding war for Ms. Lianne is somewhat staged. No offense to Ms. Lianne, I'm sure she is wonderful, but Tigerfish gave the game up.

I assure you nothing is staged. My goal for the auction, total, was five billion. We've surpassed that by a great sum and I am thrilled and and somewhat humbled by their bidding.

Since the sums are so high at this point, I feel guilty for only giving one date. I will give four to the winner. And if there are any more bids beyond these last, I will offer one date per every extra billion.

Thank you guys for being so generous.

Aye, if only, then we could all sleep a little better. Tigerfish is earnest in his attempt to buy his way back into the lady's good graces.

Norrin...I just think he has too much money.

And Aldrith...you should have known it wouldn't be pretty for the rest of us.

Tiger didn't seem too earnest when he was cheating on Ms. Lianne with my own bride-to-be. I have every vested interest in making that bottom-feeder pay dearly to entertain his fantasy that Shalee would give him another chance.

I mean more of Tigerfish finding money behind the sofa.

Oh my, so it's personal? Interesting...

For the record, if it isn't obvious, my 'bid' was entirely sarcastic.

He probably sold a supercarrier.

Also, why do I sense there will be bloodshed at the party now?

Don't worry, no one was going to come collecting money. Being alone is free of charge.

Hah! I figured, but I wanted to make sure that the organizers weren't taking the offer seriously as a donation.

If it's any consolation, I'd have bid on you or Shutaq were I not married.

You stated that bidding closes at 22:00 on Sunday. Does this mean that bidding closes the moment the clock strikes 22:00? If so, this would mean the last valid bids would have to be posted with a timestamp no later than 21:59. Or will you be accepting bids with a timestamp of 22:00, which technically occur some amount of time (even fractions of a second) after bidding officially closes?

Please clarify the rules for those of us that might be wanting to place last-minute bids.

Sometimes reading the IGS leaves me wondering if it's tragicomedy, trope filled soap opera, and inane reality holo series all rolled into one neat media package.

Have to admit though, I laughed.

This is what is commonly referred to as the "love polygon".

Apparently this one's being lazily fought with money instead of, I dunno, class. Or personality.

Just a polygon? How mundane.

I always thought explaining capsuleer love lives and relationships would be more akin to a mathematician having to describe a shape with hyper-euclidean geometry and modal functions.
