Replace “As a weekly action, Louis XIV may make an Auction Post” with “If no Auction is open, Louis XIV may make an Auction Post”.
Replace “Once such a post has been made, it will remain open for not less than 48 hours, during which Noblemen” with “While an Auction Post is open, Noblemen”.
Replace the second paragraph of “Auctions” with:-
Louis XIV may close any Auction which has been open for at least 48 hours, by performing the following Atomic Action:-
* Determining the Winner of each Item in that Auction. An Item’s Winner is the Nobleman who made the highest bid of Money plus Power for it (in the event of a tie, highest Power wins; if it is still a tie then the Item has no Winner).
* Increasing the Money of these Winners by the Money (if any) they spent on their winning bids
* Reducing the Power of each bidder by the Power (if any) they spent on their bids (whether they won them or not)
* Updating the Estates of the Winners to list the Items that they have won
* Posting a comment on the Auction Post listing its Winners, and the Power spent by all of its bidders. This renders the Auction Post closed.The Estate of each Nobleman is a list of Items that they possess, tracked on the Noblemen wiki page.
Sharpening up the auction closure as an atomic action (quietly dropping the rollover rule, which isn’t really caught by the next auction creation), and creating Estates to track won items.
Also not really seeing the need to wait a full week for the next auction, if they only take two days.
Josh: he/they
One bug here (which replicates an error in my original): “Posting a comment on the Auction Post listing its Winners, and the Power spent by all of its bidders” in the last bullet. It’s not currently explicit that all power bid is spent regardless of whether the boss is successful or not; that either needs to be made explicit or this text needs to change to “the Power bid by all bidding Noblemen”.
