Creature Auctions Bug Topic

@yileen nope, CTRL CLICK doesnt work, nor does the hovering of the mouse over any part of a trade.

yileen • 16 December 2013 at 6:45 PM

@lunar This is how it looks for me

And on the page where you can bid a link to the auction is added.
And a link to the creatures profile

lunar • 16 December 2013 at 6:46 PM

@yileen nope I dont have that

yileen • 16 December 2013 at 6:51 PM

@lunar Strange, I didnt do anything special like logging in after it was added.

sophia123 • 17 December 2013 at 11:57 AM

the little button "open in a new window" works great for me! but i would like it more if this button is showed for all auction, not only for that one your mouse is over...

@lunar @yileen

@yileen's picture is exactly as it's supposed to look. @lunar, try clearing your browser's cache, as it's probably storing temporary files that aren't allowing you to see the updated listings.

@sophia123

We're displaying it on hover for right now, so that way the auction listings aren't cluttered with images/options. Thanks for the suggestion! Noted.

@Ian - Suggestion:

Have a box to check if your creature is frozen

Ian • 21 December 2013 at 12:55 PM

@novrain62

How do you mean? When creating an auction? Viewing?

Let me know.

novrain62 • 22 December 2013 at 5:45 AM

@Ian - when creating an auction, so that people know it's a frozen creature

sophia123 • 22 December 2013 at 11:22 AM

@novrain62 great idea!

novrain62 • 22 December 2013 at 11:28 AM

@sophia123 - thank you. not e1 checks creature profile for that info. some may not want frozen creature but won the creature anyway; all scenarios can be conceived. this would be a beneficial option

kittycools • 23 December 2013 at 12:56 PM

Had an auction bug where it said I was only offering 25 EC!

Orderedchaos • 23 December 2013 at 1:01 PM

@kittycools Did you have a comma in the price when you typed it in?

kittycools • 23 December 2013 at 1:02 PM

@Orderedchaos Yea....

Orderedchaos • 23 December 2013 at 1:03 PM

@kittycools Try again with out the comma. All prices should be typed in with out a comma. 😊

Ian • 23 December 2013 at 1:48 PM

@novrain62 @sophia123

New "Hover For Stats" section appears on CA Listings. This gives exact Views, Clicks, Feeds, and Frozen? stats for a creature (w/o having to view the egg's profile).

@Ian
I think when someone outbids you, you should get your EC back as it might be too high and you might want to go for another creature instead 😋

cherryish • 23 December 2013 at 2:38 PM

@Ian I agree with @leonx , getting your EC after someone outbids you would be very helpful, especially if you are wanting to use that EC to bid on a different creature. 😊

yileen • 23 December 2013 at 3:10 PM

I agree with that too 😊

and on the "My Bids" page, it would be very useful if a current offer was shown as well as my offer.

nkiay • 23 December 2013 at 5:47 PM

So are you going to bring back the option of CC auctions?

Orderedchaos • 23 December 2013 at 5:49 PM

@nkiay It is unlikely that CC auctions will return any time in the near future.

novrain62 • 23 December 2013 at 9:30 PM

Hovering for stats is a nice addition 😊 Thank you IAN for making "frozen" appear more readily.

iv24 • 24 December 2013 at 2:48 AM

Hello. So I was outbid but my EC haven't restored. Shouldn't I get them back, since it's an auction?

Deleted • 24 December 2013 at 4:49 AM

@Ian
@iv24
Me too ☹️

Although I lost the auction my ec was not restored

karamel • 24 December 2013 at 5:41 AM

A small nit-picky thing, but if you 'Hover For Stats', it has "Views: x, Clicks, x, Feeds: x, Frozen: y/n"
It should have a colon after 'Clicks', not a comma. x3

Ian • 24 December 2013 at 10:27 AM

@leonx @kittylover2009 @yileen

To ensure the security of auctions (and that you can participate), your highest bid is held in escrow until the end of the auction. The bidding system works like this:

1st bid: 1,000 EC (1,000 EC held in escrow)
2nd bid: 1,500 EC (1,500 EC held in escrow)
3rd bid: 3,000 EC (3,000 EC held in escrow)

@iv24 @skyhealeroftheskies

What is the auction ID from your Notifications? I can take a look.

@karamel

Fixed!

iv24 • 24 December 2013 at 10:38 AM

@Ian 612

Ian • 24 December 2013 at 12:41 PM

@iv24

I see one bid placed by your account for auction ID #612 for 135000 EC. You're saying that you didn't receive this escrow back.

This is because the auction is still running here:

http://eggcave.com/creatureauctions/view/612

Each user's highest bid is held in escrow until the end of the auction. 135000 EC will be returned to your account upon the auction's close. This is how most virtual auction houses work and how ours work at Egg Cave, regardless of whether or not you're winning.

@Ian
Sorry I made mistake ☹️

bookw0rm • 24 December 2013 at 8:37 PM

@Ian
One closed auction said that it was closed because the horse died, and I received my total escrow of 110 CC. I never bid CC, had CC, or got CC, but I wanted to bring this to your attention anyway.

"Creature auction #930 (flying-horse) has been closed because the creature died while in auction! Your total escrow of 110 CC has been returned to your account."
