Hello Everyone, 

 @Pseudocrystal, You have handled this auction poorly. This is because you did not honour the 15 minute rule, a rule effective in all auctions, regardless of whether it's stated or not. However, as this is your first infraction, this will only serve as a warning.

If a bid is received in the final 15 minutes of the auction, the end point will be delayed by 15 minutes from that bid, and will be delayed by 15 minutes for each new bid thereafter, until the current offer has been held for a full 15 minutes. Must be accurate to the minute that the auction is set to end.


Reasoning: 

Auction Start - 08/24/25 03:26 PM (GMT+0) 
Auction Duration - 24 Hours 
Auction End - 08/25/25 03:26 PM (GMT+0)

@Epicmon bids 4.1m at 08/25/25 03:22 PM (GMT+0) -> Endpoint extended to 03:37 PM (GMT+0)
@Trafadlaw bids 4.3m at 08/25/25 03:24 PM (GMT+0) -> Endpoint extended to 03:39 PM (GMT+0) 
Epicmon bids 4.4m at 08/25/25 03:38 PM (GMT+0) -> Endpoint extended to 03:54 PM (GMT+0)

Therefore the auction would have ended at 03:54 PM (GMT+0) assuming that no bids were submitted after Epicmon's bid. 

I also wanted to clarify on what time is considered the start of an auction. Due to the fact that you said "the auction starts after the first bid", this means that the auction would have started and ended at 03:26 PM (GMT+0). If you had said that "the auction starts as soon as this auction was posted", then it start and end time would be considered 03:23 PM (GMT+0). 

Due to the situation at hand, I have reversed the trade with @Trafadlaw. Additionally, I will be extending this auction by 24 hours, using the time of this post as the starting point. The current offer will be 4.4m from Epicmon.

I would advise reviewing the trade and auction rules. 

Sincerely, 
Tandemaus
