(Because we just went over $2k \o/) and in return, I quote:

WOOO HOOO!!!!
Fantastic, thank you so much! We love you!

So far, you've helped 200 people. And with the money that people will donate to match your $2,000, that's 400 people!

So, you know, reading between the lines, I guess they're kind of happy? And you guys kind of rock? Maybe?

What I had forgotten was what an awesome substitute for morning coffee the auction is: I stumble downstairs, I somehow fail to notice the email dropping into my inbox is taking a little longer than usual, I load up my browser at last viewed, I'M SUDDENLY VERY AWAKE ( Read more... )

Turns out, things being what they are, RAINN's usual donor who ensures they reach their full pledge matching allotment isn't able to give to their usual level this year. That means it's pretty much down to people like us to make sure RAINN gets there. And they kind of can't believe there's almost $400 actually $400 almost $500 over $600 (seriously ( Read more... )

There are now email messages when you're bid on and when you're overbid. There are not alerts when you make a bid because those will become exceedingly inaccurate if server traffic spikes.

The overbid emails are not 100% reliable and have not been tested so it would be fantabulous if you could let me know if they work for you (or don't ( Read more... )

Couple updates: First, when you're logged in with OpenID and in the account bit, it's (hopefully) clearer that you can change your user name and add your e-mail. You're welcome to keep you.livejournal.com as your username if you want to, just you don't have to. Is the point ( Read more... )

The auction testing period is open! If anyone would like to help bug bust, please go over here, click on the auctionee of your choice and go bid. You'll need to log in, if you're not already.

Again, this is a test. None of the bids will be kept ( Read more... )

Last week and I had a minor disagreement about time management and sadly, it won. Stupid week. Okay! So, we're pretty rapidly approaching the auction start date, and I'd really, rilly like to get the auction system debugged before hand. Therefore, tomorrow afternoon I will be opening it up for testing and it would be awesome if you guys could go ( Read more... )

The ConclusionOkie! I think we've covered this pretty well and, at this point, I think we'll veer more into harm than help to keep going. As it's already upset people, that's more than enough (I'm so sorry, guys). So, I'm going to be closing this topic now. This is not the iron boot of authority stamping down, if you want to email or message me you ( Read more... )

1. cybel suggested that the Podfic tag in miscellaneous maybe just wasn't cutting it anymore, so the tag has been removed and Podfic has been upgraded to a category of its very own. It has a little icon and everything ( Read more... )

I think it's safe to say we have interest. *OMGFLAILEEEEEEE* I mean, that's pretty cool. I guess. (Dignity, Lithy. Always dignity.)

*cough*

What I've done is put the auction into the new system over here and, as you'll see from the dates, given a really long lead in. That's basically to allow me to make code changes and fixes before we actually ( Read more... )
