Planned Mall Auction

[xmarwan]

Edit: Mall Auction

The Idea is simple here, just like an English Auction, it can be done in-game I assume or in the game website itself.

For Example, Gem of Rage is the item being bid on, starting with 10 Rums, and it will last for 24 hours, when a person bids the time Adds +5 mins more so others can bid too incase it comes to the last 1 minute of the Auction.

Person A: Bids to 50 rums
Person B: Bids to 80 rums
Person A: Bids to 100 rums
Person C: Bids to 150 rums
Person D: Bids to 500 rums

When the timer is out and no one bids more, the winner is announced to be Person D, 500 Rums deducted, and he gets the Gem of Rage .
again I just gave an example here, developers can choose what those items are.

This can be a better way of releasing some items in the game with limited quantities, makes it a bit fun too, and it will be helpful when there is some rare items are released, going from the Auction System first which would generate more money -for developers- than just dropping the item in the mall.

again I just gave an example here, developers can choose what those items are.

Actually. `Auctions` were added into TODO list long before UserVoice was introduced.
So all the assets for it are already made, including some of the API on our backend.

Sure why not make it p2w just put bd gems in mall np

We can't pretend this doesn't already basically happen. Players already sell items for rum, or trade for money and buy rum. Adding an official way to do it just allows the sellers to be unbiased and gives more exposure to the items being sold. The idea of an in game auction for ANY item, as long as they are put up by other players should be very welcomed.

Agree.
