I bid $2010
pokes:
FYI, the bid of $2010, while currently valid (by my interpretation, and so further bids must be at least $2211 to win), can’t win the auction since it doesn’t beat $2000 by 10%.

shhh! I was trying to keep the bidding from going up!

The bats (Bela’s blogging instrument of choice) have left the belltower (where he had been storing them) and are en route to his employing team’s storage. This auction is now closed.

derrick gets an incredible bargain of $32,000. I won’t be able to update the gamestate accordingly right now; anyone else may do so.
