TBH, sniping is gonna happen no matter what - there's no way you can prevent it :c
I probably won't use a new PA site, but I would prefer automatic if I did.

^ What Neco & Selena just said. I would definitely prefer automatic, which I voted for on PCG, because I feel that eBay works haha. However it did frustrate me on PA when I couldn't bid anymore on something I really, really wanted, just because someone had amassed 43850983453 credits and I'd only just started so had barely anything... Still, much rather do that than having to keep coming back to bid again and again. Perhaps, if this hasn't been suggested yet, you should be emailed/alerted when you've been outbid, like eBay does?

Thanks Mkay <3
In that case, I vote automatic for the same reasons as Catherine said. That's how eBay does it, and I feel like it's an effective system. :3

Here's a message from Luli!: Since the auction's website is ready, I figured I would see who was interested in testing it. I've decided to make a "hat" so that whoever is interested can put their name in, I'll decide on a suitable number of testers and I'll pull as many numbers as testers I need (an equal amount of members from all three active forums: AAP, PCG and RKC, let me know if you know any others with a considerable amount of members). I'll also film myself pulling names out of the hat, because it's fun (and you can see me doing it right) lol, Liv suggested it. Here is some information you should keep in mind: As a tester you'd need to report any bugs or "holes" you find while using the website, I've tried to think of every possible situation to keep it from happening if it's not supposed to, but different thoughts and ideas might make new things pop up. During this period I will not take suggestions for improvements, I'm testing the base of the website and that's what I need to double check. Suggestions will come later, but not right away, I've been working on this for a while and I think there's no urgency to do anything else just yet. Just tell me what's wrong with what's done so far. I'm planning on giving each tester an extra user and password (so you have to log in twice) so that they are the only ones who have access to the site. Uploading it somewhere and having random people find out what the url is and join in wouldn't help. I can not deactivate the features to keep them from registering (well, I could, but I need to test them) so I figured this might work. This information must not be shared with anyone, not even your friends. I could go ahead and pick people I know I can trust to not do it, but I wanted to give everyone a chance, so please don't abuse of this. It'll be up for everyone eventually, so there shouldn't be a need to go against it. Um, I think that's pretty much it. Feel free to ask if something doesn't make sense or hasn't been said. And if you feel like doing all of that, leave your name here! Thank you :3
