RockoMan is on CAG too?

Army of Two (B) - $1.50
Dragon Age: Origins (A) - $2.50

Ok Contest time: I will be picking 2 random clock times (from Random.org) for today, Anytime between 12:30 and 7:30 PDT. Whoever places a bid closest to those 2 times will get $5 off their lowball total. If you place a bid at the EXACT times I've chosen (according to the forum clock), you'll get $10 off your lowball total.

I'll post when the times are getting close (within a half hour). Good luck!

Update - First random time is less than 45 minutes away. We'll do it "Price is Right" style. The bid closest to the time without going "over", or past, the chosen time, gets the $5 - and my undying gratitude.

Anyone? Anyone?

**Crickets chirping** *sigh* So much for this idea.

Time's up (first random time was 13:20) - if I'd gotten even ONE bid, that person would have saved $5. I'll try again later I guess.

You're probably not getting any bids because of football. I hopped on CAG as soon as the Saints/Bears game was over.

So you don't have to make your executive decision..

Pop Cap Arcade Vol. 2 (A) - $2

Everybody Loves Raymond Complete 2nd ssn (A) ** - $1
Everybody Loves Raymond Complete 4th ssn (S) ** - $1

I second the Football thing. SMH @ the Vikings. Ugh.

$1 on MGS4

I'm a football fan too, but I figured the lowball would distract me from my 3rd "close call" on a parlay ticket this weekend, 4th in 2 weeks. If I'd hit them all, I'd be up about $600 - argh.

Xmix and Mis0, both of you have duplicated other ppl's bids (haven't updated since last night, sorry). Please adjust them if you want to.

3 people voted $1 on MGS4 smh, i put
$1.50 on MGS4

SMH @ the Jags.

You might want to be clearer with your contest. Placing a bid for a time? What exactly do you mean a bid? Also, I'm assuming you only get one choice.

It just doesn't seem conventional. You may try something a little more basic than picking a time... next time.

Panzer Dragoon Orta (B+) $6
Castlevania Symphony of the Night (B+) ** $7
Blue Stinger (C) ** $3
Game Genie w/manual (C+) ** $4

I thought I was making it fairly clear. I'm just trying to encourage bidding. I'm not asking to bid ON a time, but to bid in a certain time period, hoping your bid will be close to the chosen (random) time.

As I try to explain it, it starts to sound pretty lame. I'll think of something else I guess. Oh well.

Jackass The Movie Special Edition (B) - $1
Red Dragon (S) - $1

Castlevania Symphony of the Night (B+) ** $9

A few things I'll have to keep an eye on towards the end.

Good luck on the lowball.

symphony of the night $10

Panzer Dragoon - $7
MGS4 - $2

Mgs4 2.50

I feel ya on that brother, but I just think there are better ways to go about it.

I don't think what you did was lame, I just think it wasn't the best approach for a forum. Not everyone's on 24/7, ya know? I think the best approach is to offer benefits to high bidders. That way everyone can be a part of it, and you give that extra incentive to bid.

Just my 2¢.

Ut3 - $1.50

Kotor - $4
