I wouldn't say that's true either. The pend wording is this: "Any player CAN flip a specified proposal's imminence to "pending" by announcement BY: b) spending the current Pend Cost in shinies.". Clearly the word by makes it required to be simultaneous: the Pend Cost must be paid at the same time as the announcement. The Estate Auction wording is: "The winner CAN cause Agora to transfer the auctioned Estate to emself by announcement, IF E PAYS Agora the amount of the bid". That's readable and should be read as non-simultaneous: that is, the winner can get the estate if e has paid Agora the amount of the winning bid in shinies for the single and sole purpose of winning the Estate.
