Got it, and bids will be at least .01 higher and no extra decimals. (they are pretty worthless these days as aren't even good for beer money anymore, lol)
@Panthers, I can understand both sides but you have to admit his misunderstanding was due to me not being here to clarify. Hence there is 15 minutes between bids...and me not being here...bitguy can answer for himself if he intended on outbidding you or not. I will not speak for him.
What if I restarted the auction at 2.75BTC and increments of 0.01 and let you both go at it?
Smoothie, yes, intended to outbid. You can see all my bids were in .005 increments, just not necessarily .005 higher, which was the discrepancy.
Smoothie, very good at math, lol, Maybe it's just late, as I liked your "noon" auctions better, but honestly I didn't interpret it states must be .005 higher than last bid, just in .005 increments, meaning .005, .010, .015, .020, etc..... Guess it never was an issue before but duly noted, thanks for the clarification
I think it should be valid given obviously he would go higher.
I won't fault him for being bad at math tonight
Smoothie, is it correct that bids go in .005 increments in general, not .005 higher that last bid? Bids from what i have seen do not normally extend further than 3 digits past decimal point, or of they do, the third digit is at least a multiple of 5?
I want to confirm from smoothie if your bid is going to be accepted before bidding again. His rules are somewhat unclear
Hmm, actually, It could be more valid than your one bid of 3.14159265 as not in .005 increments. (unless smoothie were to round down) should have been 3.140 or 3.145. That could make the auction over at my prior 3.135 bid and your next valid bid did not come in within 15 min then.?
I assume that his rules state that a bid must be at least .005 above the prior bid. To my knowledge he has accepted odd amount bids before.
I was questioning the validity of your prior bid because it was made 15 minutes and 38 seconds after my last bid (your bid of 3.16 was not high enough above my prior bid), but he has a strange rule about it only being to the minute, not second, so I am not sure.
3.80, and Wait, confused, your bid was 3.1555 at 13 min after, mine was 3.160 at 24 min after. Higher and only 11 min?
