TOPIC: Poll: Feedback on Auction - content

Re: Poll: Feedback on Auction - content 17 years 8 months ago #49

i like the auction as a gold sink. many folks got the items they were after, some did not. if TD would like to open the bidding up to a wider audience, why not offer whole sets for sale? the tokenholics/collectors can purchase or place an order ahead of time. that way they are not apt to bid on items and leave open the opportunity for others to bid on an item they may not have had a chance on otherwise. with only being allowed to win one artisan token per person, TD insured a wider bidding pool. the token affluent can perhaps have other items to bid on. not everything for sale is available to the masses.

As far as offering whole sets up for sale, it goes against our promise to keep the total number of tokens down.  There are currently in circulation 1x of each artisan token from the auction and 14 others from random treasure draws.  I will try and find out which of the tokens were not drawn as part of the treasure, later.  <br /><br />If we do the auction at SoCal, we would bring one more set of the same tokens up for sale as well as place one set in the treasure generators.  That means there would be a minimum of two of these and a maximum of 4 of them in circulation.  It would be very hard for someone to get a full set, but I know some would like to try.  <br /><br />If full sets of things like this are desired, perhaps we can increase the numbers available next year for different designs, or some of the same.  <br /><br />As to if they will be made available at SoCal, I have not had that conversation with Jeff yet.<br /><br />In terms of whether the artisan tokens constitute part of the 2006 token set, I would be inclined to say no, despite the fact they have the spider on the back.  TD would like to stay out of dictating policy regarding collecting tokens however (this is why Douglas does the pricing guide), so the token collectors (previously dubbed the Trader's guild) can set your own policy on what constitutes a complete set for a year.  This is partially why we placed a picture on each one, and tried to keep them non functional for game play, to separate them out from the "official" game tokens.<br /><br />Dave

<br />Gah!  Yes, PLEASE... there needs to be a little more consistency in the "official" trading room.  's the bling factor!<br />

<br /><br />Agreed, I think our trial of trading in the training room clearly failed.  We will persue other options at SoCal and next year.
