GP bid 0.48 at 9:57:24 forum time.
My understanidng as to how auctions work here, is that bc GP’s bid was placed within the last 5 minutes, that the auction would end 5 minutes from this point - to 10:02:24 and then be over.
So looking at the bids, had nobody said anything, I would have understood it as GP having been the high bidder @ 0.48
In future auctions I will make this more clear. I pulled the rules from another auction and then added the ad infinitum part and other parts to try to make it more clear - next time I will add an example (i.e.) as well.
GP and AdvocateOne I am sending you each a PM now to sort this so hopefully everyone will be happy.
You designated a time the auction ends but now it ends at GP's bid. That is confusing. Your wording is ambiguous enough to interpret it how you want but I recommend in the future you stick to the end time that you designate and time added is added after the time you designate as the end.
