I'm sure a few of you may be familar with this. If not:
I post a fictional 'In' lot from a fictional 'In' auction, and everyone bids whatever they might like for the item. For example:
Me: One button!
Poster 1: I bid two dollars!
Poster 2: I bid two dollars fifty!
Poster 3: I bid six pounds!
Poster 1: I bid fourteen dollars!
And so on and so forth. Each 'bid' should be more valuable than the previous one, and the highest reasonable bid (don't jump up by like a million pounds at a time) when I close the lot wins.
DISCLAIMER: This is not a real auction, and is purely for fun. You will not win any tangible items, intangible items, or secret coded messages from this topic.
Lot 1: A large urn made from an orange coloured baked clay, complete with lid. On each side of the urn the V.F.D. insignia has been stamped in bronze. The urn contains a large pile of ashes and a small piece of card that claims the ashes are human in origin, and have been taken from the ruins of the Hotel Denouement.
