all i can say is in the rules it says one bid . it doesnt specify anything about when you can request 1 or 2 copies its just available for ppl who pay more than 300. i worked for my money...

Whether or not 2 bids was claimed could affect future bids. I'm with everyone else in saying that it should have been specified at time of bid. Whoever gets bumped will be ticked.

Also, I'm sure all most of us work for our money.

Yeah. At first I was on your side getting 2 copies since you bid over $300.

But the rules clearly state (in quotes) that bid should specify "2 copies" if that's what you want.

Rules are rules

Rizz said he has more copy's just sell Mathew one of those to advoid controversy

Adding a copy to this auction is changing da rules. Was originally stated those would be auctioned at a later date. Just selling it now would be different.

I'm gonna stop commenting though. Sorry for adding to the dilution of the auction post. rizz will handle it as he sees fit.

What about numbers? Do the highest bids get the lowest numbers? I'm bidder #6. Does that mean I get LE #7 or what?

Aww, sad.. Saw my name on the table and thought "Woo!". Then I saw the last 3 pages of this thread! Sad! I'll grab a regular copy I guess!

hes cool. he messaged me i was just simply sticking up for myself i respect his decision i dont feel he should be pressured for his work. At the end of the day its his wallet right. i just feel a tad bit bullied for having the money or being new.

Hey rizz, I suppose you're going to compile an official list of the auction winners? Also, where would I send payment? Through paypal, right?

After the top 2 guys choose their numbers, then yes, I'll just go in order.  Highest bids will get the lowest numbers.

Sweet just made the cut!!!

I don't see where you were being bullied.  We just try to play by the rules.

Plus why do you keep bringing up your money?  From what I have read, no one has said anything about you paying that much.  I for one, am happy Rizz is getting this much for the LE's.

Good news - the list is prepared on the first post.  If anything is wrong with what I tallied, please let me know.

Payment is due in a week.  Paypal and personal checks are acceptable.  I'll PM you with paypal info.  I'm new to this part, but I expect I should send my info to the 29, rather than the Paypal Request Payment option, since I would have to collect emails in order to do that.  If this is not the norm, please fill me in.

No hard feelings, hopefully. I just didn't want to see any kind of drama develop on this release. Congrats on top bid. I look forward to defeating your custom-named king on the bonus levels 

rizz, just PM us your PayPal e-mail address and we'll send the funds. Congrats again on your auction.

The only reason we were contesting your intention of buying two copies was for respecting the egality of all bidders in front of the rules of the auction. The facts that you're new here or you have money (in all seriousness, this situation gives nobody here any clue on your wealth, there are bigger purchases in this hobby all day long) have absolutely nothing to do with the contestations.

The only concern was that you didn't had the right to circumvent the rules of the auction in detriment of the 29th copy current bidder. I hope you understand this has nothing to do with you personally, and that you're more than welcome to stick around with us if you share our passion for Retro NES games.

Was there a post of the paypal address for the funds to be sent?

I'll contact you through PM, possibly tonight yet.

Ok. Sorry no rush. I just dont check N.A. as frequently as I used to becuase of time issues. Dont want to get left behind

Invoices have been sent to the Top 29 bidders via PM. If you are in the Top 29 bids and did not receive a PM from me, or received the wrong information, please contact me.

Thank you all for your generous bids. It was really terrific to see usernames that have been following the game for a LONG time, and also seeing a few that I know in person from the Midwest Gaming Classic group. It was also fascinating to see so many different country flags - it looks like Armed for Battle is going to be *very* widely distributed.

Happy to see some of you looking forward to the general release. I have a notification list if you'd like to get emailed when that time comes in the near future. You can also keep an eye on my blog, and infiniteneslives.com

well dang, looks like this went for more than double what I thought it'd go for.

monies sent! super excited

NOOO I WAS DEFEATED.

Congrat on the auction and thanks you put a end date it really a better format then the other one where no one know when its ending...

Time to lock up the thread I suppose.

Any additional comments can be put in the Armed For Battle topic in the Brewery forum.

Thanks everyone!
