So what's the status on the remaining two auctions now?
I was hoping to make a serious bid on them. :(

Using the guise of "breaking fun" to test something? Well, alright.
I appreciate the lack of book-throwing.

You were testing, I was testing... Citing the rule specifically such that
a ruling on whether it was appropriate would be specific to cause, and
choosing a card to make it worth contesting.
The Zombie Auction version doesn't make it possible to withdraw bids,
so I don't know if that would work.... No clue.

I find that I broke R2550 a bit weird, because I was relying on your very
on argument of " You could bid anything and say "hey, a rule change might
make it possible, you never know."
If you want to Card me for "breaking fun", sure, but then state it as
such
and not R2550.
Because hey, a rule change might make it possible, you never know.
(Also, I was planning on retracting that and bidding for real to win the
auction but oh well.)

I deputize for the Referee to impose judgement on cuddlebeam for the

finger-pointing:
Trivial auction breaking spoils everyone's fun. Really. And "I
might
as well" directly break a rule is a terrible attitude to bring to
the
game, and doesn't Treat Agora Right. This deserves a strong
penalty.
Red Card.

Might as well:
I bid an amount equal to the cardinality of the set of all Natural

(aleph-zero), on each auction

What does “winning” mean, anyway?
I bid i shinies (i.e. sqrt(-1)) on each auction.

If this is auction is governed by R2550, then this likely break a
SHALL
NOT:
A person SHALL NOT bid on an Auction if it would be
impossible
for
em to pay that amount at the conclusion of the Auction.
If this auction is governed by R1885, then this might be a
failed bid
attempt, depending on whether "CAN bid a number of Shinies"
implicitly
requires the number to be shiny-quantized to be successful.
Higher bids have been received so I'm ignoring the whole thing,
this
is
more pointing out the difficulties if there's a "winning"
non-positive
integer bid.
