Just wondering what everyone thinks of having an old skool IC/OOC celebrity auction thingy, to build up our city bank for prizes and such? Splitting the money with the auctionee?

Sounds like it would be fun.
I'll donate some lindens and whatever else you need.
Never been involved in one so I am not totally sure how it is done.

Its pretty easy, really. We get some victi.. er... volunteers to be auctioned, anyone who wants to. Each person decides their "limits", if they want to be IC or OOC, and so on. Over a week, folks bid on the victi.. volunteers, and on a friday, the boards close, and the high bids win the person in question for the weekend.

We usually do something like a 50/50 split with the proceeds, half to the victi damnit, volunteer, and half to the sim for prizes, contests, and the like. Its usually a good time.

I thought about doing it a bit back, but the RFL stuff was still going on, and everyone was donating to that, for which I am happy. Better it go there. Now that that stuff has more or less wrapped up, it might be a good time. These auctions are usually a good time for people to get to know folks they haven't met yet, as well.

Due to time zone differences and such, we aren't doing live auctions. The folks up for bid are on auction boards in the center area of the market, you can see them there.

Off the top of my head, and likely missing some folks, we have:
Alex
Matteo
Rasken
Magnolia
Natasha
Lela McKeenan
Tristan
Markos
Kaynia
Ania (stephania)
Aura
Kalie
Ian1 Daviolo
Kandr Newall
Charmed
Gavin
Dren
Minx

And that's all I can remember right now. If I left you out, I apologize, blame the ADD.
