What is being auctioned? Why?
Non intrusive ad space in my setup guides is being publicly auctioned. This has prior approval from Theymos.

I work for the community full time and am not funded by the community or any company. Donations have not exceeded $50 in total this year and so I have to find a way to keep the guides sustainable and FREE for the average consumer. Selling ad space is one such trial.

Ad Format

• Leaderboard style (728x90 pixels)
• Static images (jpg, jpeg, gif, png)
• Non annoying colors

• Ads may not misrepresent, lie, be inappropriate, be (or link to) NSFW content.
• I reserve the right to reject ads for other reasons or remove ads even after they have been accepted.

• There are 3 ad slots for sale. One slot will be placed after sections 2, 4 and 6 in all the guides listed at the bottom of the post. Shorter guides may not have a slot 6.

• I will randomise which ad is placed in which slot.
• The ads last at least 7 days starting from when they are put up.
• Traffic is expected to be 12,500 impressions per slot over the period.
• This traffic is exceptionally targeted to the hardware subforum, and more specifically to those who have either bought or are looking to buy miners.

Adblock
As images within text, these ads are not affected by ad block by image. I will use a goo.gl address to prevent url blocking.

Auction Format

- Auction will run for approximately 7 days, end time will not be strictly enforced.
- Post your bids in this thread. Prices must be started in BTC per slot. You must state the max number of slots you want.
- The notation "2 @ 5" means 2 slots for 5 BTC each. Not 2 slots for 5 BTC total.
- The bidding starts at 0.10.
- All bid prices must be evenly divisible by 0.02.
- If two people bid at the same price, the person who bid first will have his slots filled first.

I reserve the right to reject bids, even days after the bid is made. In particular, bids from people with less than 15 activity points are likely to be rejected. I recommend not getting into a bidding war with someone who has less than 15 activity points, as their bids might not be accepted, but your latest bids will still stand. If you need to know right away whether someone's bids will be accepted, PM me.

You must pay for your slots within 24 hours of receiving the payment address. Otherwise your slots may be sold to someone else. I will send you the payment information via forum PM from this account ("dogie", user ID 87869). You might receive false payment information from scammers pretending to be me. They might even have somewhat similar usernames. Be careful.

So nice to see dogie getting something back from all the work he is doing.

Thanks. This auction is closed, round 3 will be listed soon.
