CSS Results for 4/20/2011 - Highness Extravaganza
« on: April 25, 2011, 10:19:26 AM »
Well look, for the 4th time this season, another tie on a showcase.  Shockingly, GR Whammy cashes on it... on a xx,420 win, SMH.  Very very close at the top

From now on- i will not reveal my bids in the chatroom. People are taking advantage on my bids.

$28,471/$36,590 (:dsw:/HEELS) -- This one still stings even though it doesn't count for anything.

It's certainly your choice to do that, but to insinuate that people are cheating is wrong.

There are lots of bids revealed in chat every day.  Why would people be focusing on yours?

It was an obvious decision to end a bid in -420 today.  I didn't do it, but I could see why everybody did.

I have to agree with Flerbert.  The same thing happened to me last month...and the tying bid was something like $23,222.  While it is a bit of an off-the-wall bid, I think that it was just a coincidence that GR Whammy bid the same as you, especially considering the day.  If you don't feel like sharing your bids before the reveal, it's not really an issue.  I know that a couple of members here chose not to - and I have started revealing mine right as the show goes into the last segment of the show.

$33,300/$29,100... Armadillo finally stops the bleeding. My lead is still comfy at 7, though.

Please stop being ridiculous. Yes, ridiculous. Thinking people are taking advantage of YOUR bids is silly...Almost like you assume you're the best or something. Nobody in the chat would take advantage of anyone elses bids. Having someone else bid the same as you on 4/20 with a -420 ending is strictly coincidental. If someone was really taking advantage of your bids they would have bid $35,421, plain and simple.

Thank's for totally ignoring what everyone else in this thread has said. I can understand stopping after that other day...but today? That's like if you bid 30000 and someone else bids 30000 and call them a cheater taking advantage of your bids. I don't even think GRWHAMMY was IN CHAT at that time! Plus, if he was "taking advantage" of your bids, why did he not bid -421?
