I did try! :( Your comment was part of my impetus for adding it, actually. ^_^ It never occurred to me to post ideas for fics I’d like to write until others did it, but the original plotline for this fic is one I’d love an excuse to prioritize, and since I knew at least one person was interested, I figured posting it was worth a shot. ♥
No worries! It would've been fun to write, as would omega warlord Tony. You were in that podbid? *_* ♥
I lost a bid in the last several minutes too. The end of the auction was insane! *solidarity consolation fistbump* Given how much MTH improved from last year, which was already amazing, I'm excited to see what it's like in 2021!
Yes I was in that podbid. We bid 90 and at the last second someone did 211.00. Now that was a snip. Lol we didn't have a chance
I was very sleepy that day so I started listening to a story at 8 and when I came to it was 1200 on the dot. 😳 I was sure I lost it all. But I win one story didn't know that until 3am. This year was crazy on there. Normally there is alot more low costing stuff left. So I look forward to next year. But I will agree they are getting so much better.
Oh no! What a time to oversleep! O_o I'm glad you were still able to win one of your auctions. Do you know what story prompt you're going to give your creator?
My auction's winner was a podbid too. I'm glad the auction lets us do that! I'd never win anything otherwise. And since this year the auction got bigger, and things went for higher prices than last year—I know some people who were saving for MTH all year—I'm anticipating auctions going for even more next year. I'm really excited to find out how much money we raised for charity this year though. *_*
I know right? I was really self?!! Was this the time? Winning was a plus. I really thought that I wasn't. But I sent them a list and they picked the one that I really wanted done so that was extra happiness.
I love the podbid idea. It is an amazing idea. I wasn't counting on everything to go so high. But I also didn't factor in that people have been going nowhere all year and had money to burn. I took a fall in august and have been out on works comp since than and on top of that my car broke at the start of Oct so my budget was super tight. So hopefully things will go better next year. I think I might finally be a creator. But it is a lot of time until than so we will see.
And I agree. I cant wait to see the amount. That is like the best part. The mind blowing totals. Like we did all that!!!!!!
That's awesome! It's good that you gave your creator a list, but I'm glad they picked your favorite from it! ^_^ I'm also glad you have paid time off to heal, even though that and your car have been financial concerns. I know winning an auction won't fix those things, but you deserve nice things, and a story written for you is a nice thing. ♥
OMG that's true! I know money's been tight for a lot of people thanks to COVID, so it never occurred to me that people are also saving money because lockdown means no outings to spend it on. *headdesk*
Yesss be a creator next year! I was really nervous about it last year, but it's been fun writing fics for people. Definitely give it a try! It's also nice to know that even if I don't spend money on auctions, I'm helping raise money for charity. ^_^
