Schmidt is not an approved person in this auction. If you want to bid on him, fine, but I can't promise where the isk (or socks) will go.

I would like to bid 280,000,000isk on Miss Raske. This appears to be a good cause, and while I may be unable to make it to the event, it would be nice to catch up with my friend at a later time. Two birds with one stone, to borrow the colloquialism.

Thirty on myself. Three socks, exactly: one white ankle sock, one long knee-length black sock, and an one side of a pair of pantyhose. That counts as a sock.

I don't care what you think, as long as it's about me.

Because the children could now have a dreadnought providing campus security?

If it's only for your stated reasons, though, sir, I certainly have no reason to object.

OMG.

Gosh, Sirs. I am.... so flattered!

Honestly! I am!

The children really will be able to have a nicely endowed school with nifty field trips, uniforms for spring, summer, winter and fall, amazing science lab (probably with a collision accelerator. Doesn't every school have one?) and benefits I am sure!

Umm.... before this gets even more out of hand, and if it's not too impertinent Sirs..

Maybe you could just both agree to hold the bid at 3.5 bil each and we'll call it a tie and I'll go out on a date with both of you (separately of course!)?

Captain Daphiti, your wisdom is matched only by your prowess as a combat pilot. I accept the conditions of your suggestion. Should I remain in the winning position at the time of the close of this auction, I will look forward to entertaining your company.

Although I believe congratulations to be premature as the official auction has yet to close, I appreciate the sentiment nonetheless. It was a well-fought bid, sir, and I salute your dedication to the spirit of competition and graceful sportsmanship.

If the quoted offer stands for outsiders, I'm willing to match the 3.5b bid for Captain Maria.

The aforementioned small pile of socks, thirty ISK, and half of a different pair of pantyhose for Charles Cambridge Schmidt.

Total:
1 ankle-length white sock
1 knee-length black sock
2 halves of pantyhose, comprising one entire but not assembled pair of pantyhose
30 ISK.

....Charles why did you choose all the worst possible kinds of sock. I just noticed.

He is obviously saving the better socks for later bids.
