Atlantic Silent Auction Information and Rules:
At 7PM EST (19:00 Hours) on every Saturday this month, I will host a silent auction on the Atlantic shard at my Zento house. I will only be auctiong off 24 items/packages (LOTS) per week. There will be no Buy Outs or Reserved Prices. Bidders can only contact me here on Stratics, ICQ – 150528775 and http://www.facebook.com/nailswarstein
This month’s auction ends Saturday February 16th, 2013 at 7PM ET / 1AM CET / Midnight GMT / 6PM CT / 5PM MT / 4PM PT / 9AM JST / 11AM AEDT
I selected this end date and time so it did not interfere with EM hosted Events, traditional work schedules, and traditional sleeping hours. If you are unable to attend, please ask a friend to be your proxy bidder.
Instructions for bidders are as follows:
All bidding will be done via Bulletin Board. All bidders and proxy bidders must include their prominent name (not unknown alias) and contact information (ICQ, AIM, Yahoo, or Stratics Name) in addition to their bid. There will be a 10 minute cool down period starting with the last bid placed on items between 6:50PM – 7PM EST. Players can choose to continue bidding past 7PM EST only on items that received bids during the last 10 minutes period, and can continue bidding for another 10 minutes until no more bids have been received for a full 10 minutes.
Receiving Your Winnings:
Gold will be acceptable on Atlantic or Europa only. Players will have 72 hours to pay for their items, or be banned from further participation. I will broker the sale of all the items presented in the silent auction. I might be able to personal provide limited gold swapping for a few select shards.

The title confuses me, Atlantic Silent Auction


Silent auction is a variant of the English auction in which bids are written on a sheet of paper. At the predetermined end of the auction, the highest listed bidder wins the item. This auction is often used in charity events, with many items auctioned simultaneously and "closed" at a common finish time. The auction is "silent" in that there is no auctioneer selling individual items, the bidders writing their bids on a bidding sheet often left on a table near the item. At charity auctions, bid sheets usually have a fixed starting amount, predetermined bid increments, and a "guaranteed bid" amount which works the same as a "buy now" amount. Other variations of this type of auction may include sealed bids. The highest bidder pays the price he or she submitted.

And what exactly confuses you Winker?

If you read the actual post, you can see that is pretty much the same as what you literally describe, apart from the buy-out, fixed bid increments and fixed starting amount.

I thought the idea was just to place one bid in a silent auction, no one know what each other has bid, and you hope yours wins. I want to bid on some of the stuff, i just dont want to get it worng.

Oh no... Tis not that kind of an auction.

You can bid as many times as you want untill the auction closes.
Hopefully that makes it clean enough! ^^
