Any way you could close all threads? I'm a little worried people are not going to see this and keep bidding on items. :/

That's a really good question. For instance, in one auction where I was thinking of bidding, I noticed that another bid was posted at 10:03 a.m. UTC and it wasn't screened out. But shouldn't it have been? Frankly, I think attention should be paid to time stamps, too.

I'm wondering this myself. A couple of my last-minute bids got held up by unexpected captchas, and are dated at 18:00 GMT+8. Would these still count?

Edited to add: The owner of one of these auctions already contacted me to let me know I'd won, but I'd like the community mods to weigh in on this before I go ahead with the follow-up.

Yes, I placed a bid at 5:58 EDT, and another user responded at 6:00 EDT - which was after the bidding should have closed. I rebid, since the post was still open - and I should have the winning bid either way - but I'm worried the mods will just take off my last bid and let the other late bid stand.

The way the community came together and made offers and bid was amazing, even compared to past effort on LJ! Looking forward to future rounds.

That's fine, no rush. I just wanted to make sure I got your donation taken care of.

Hi there!

In response to your reply on the other thread (15 icons for $3), let me know what you'd like icon'd and I'll start on it this weekend.

again, check out deegroovy_icons to get an idea of the kind of icons I make.

Thanks!
