| 04:16.40 | Rothmic | Heol |
| 04:16.42 | Rothmic | *Hello |
| 04:18.07 | Rothmic | No one alive in here? |
| 04:22.19 | ckknight | nope, Rothmic |
| 04:22.23 | ckknight | all dead |
| 04:24.26 | Rothmic | Hm. I guess you can't expect to have an IRC channel active 24-7. |
| 04:24.46 | FlAWD | very true :P |
| 04:39.56 | MentalPower | Rothmic: sup? |
| 04:40.16 | Rothmic | Just posting on the forum and stuff. |
| 04:40.41 | Rothmic | I was also curious to see if the Auctioneer team ever found an economist. |
| 04:40.52 | Rothmic | Those posts were back in 2006, so it's been quite a while since then. |
| 04:41.15 | MentalPower | sort of yes, and sort of no. we could always use another set of eyes |
| 04:42.04 | Rothmic | I'm not actually an economist... econ major, but I haven't gotten into auction theory classes yet. |
| 04:42.22 | Rothmic | I'm working at an econometrics firm this summer, and I started having ideas about what one could do with regressions and auction data. |
| 04:42.38 | Rothmic | The fact you can't determine what auctions were bought out and what were cancelled, however, really really really sucks. |
| 04:43.04 | MentalPower | we know |
| 04:43.22 | Rothmic | Do you know if someone can cancel an auction that has bids? |
| 04:43.44 | MentalPower | they can |
| 04:44.01 | MentalPower | but they lose whatever cut the AH was to take if the item had sold at the current bid |
| 04:44.21 | Rothmic | People can also bid on their own items with other characters. |
| 04:44.43 | MentalPower | no, they cannot |
| 04:44.48 | MentalPower | not on the same account |
| 04:45.03 | Rothmic | Oh, that's good. They could do it inner guild though, and then just transfer the money back across accounts. |
| 04:45.17 | MentalPower | or with a second account |
| 04:45.22 | Rothmic | Seems like a lot of work to inflate prices though. |
| 04:45.31 | MentalPower | but that increases the ammount of coordination neccesary |
| 04:45.34 | MentalPower | right |
| 04:46.31 | Rothmic | Well, if one saw that an auction had bids, it should be possible to track that auction down to the expiration time and conclude with high certainty that it sold for the price of the last bid. |
| 04:46.58 | Rothmic | Far more auctions sell for buyout than for bidding though (at least on ebay, and it seems annecdotally true on WoW) |
| 04:48.49 | norganna | Rothmic: true, given consistent scanning |
| 04:49.29 | norganna | however based off the fact that most people scan irregularly (sometimes only once every few days) this can be somewhat tricky to do |
| 04:49.48 | Rothmic | My goal was to set up my computer scanning 24/7. |
| 04:49.58 | norganna | there is a new module in auctioneer advanced (auc-stat-purchased) that does do this however |
| 04:50.23 | Rothmic | But it doesn't seem worth it if I can't determine buyout prices. |
| 04:51.02 | norganna | pulling an expensive item costs a fair bit of money |
| 04:51.27 | norganna | it's safe to assume that prices aren't being fixed with the more expensive items |
| 04:51.30 | Rothmic | By pulling, do you mean one with bids, or in general? |
| 04:52.01 | MentalPower | in general |
| 04:52.12 | MentalPower | I was rather vague |
| 04:52.27 | MentalPower | it costs the deposit + whatever the cut was for the current bid |
| 04:52.31 | norganna | uhm, pulling an item loses you the deposit plus (if it has bids) the ah cut that would have been taken |
| 04:52.38 | MentalPower | usually %10 |
| 04:53.04 | MentalPower | bbl |
| 04:53.28 | Rothmic | Hm. Interesting. Are there expensive items that have high volume trading? |
| 04:59.25 | norganna | normally the expensive items are fairly rare |
| 04:59.44 | norganna | the most commonly traded items (as in real life) are the less expensive ones |
| 05:00.03 | Rothmic | By the way, if you ever want an extra set of eyes on some ideas, give me a ring. I'm a double in Econ and Math at Stanford. That doesn't mean too much, since you've really got to be a PhD. to know your stuff, but at least I know what I know and what I don't, unlike a lot of people. |
| 05:00.38 | Rothmic | I'm toying around with the idea of doing WoW auctions for my honors thesis, which is why I wandered over here. |
| 05:01.13 | FlAWD | it's funny how some of the smartest people play this game ... and some of the very dumbets |
| 05:01.16 | FlAWD | dumbest* |
| 05:01.57 | Rothmic | It means a lot of different things to different people... |
| 05:02.07 | FlAWD | yep |
| 05:02.21 | Rothmic | Sometimes you play to escape your life, sometimes you play to enrich your life. |
| 05:02.49 | FlAWD | both for me :) |
| 05:05.23 | Rothmic | It's lazy TV time. I'll be back on to chat later. |
| 05:08.22 | norganna | FlAWD: How bad is it when you type something profound like that, and misspell the most important word in the statement! |
| 05:15.12 | FlAWD | because ... |
| 05:15.22 | FlAWD | i'm not as dumb as i look! :) |
| 05:21.00 | norganna | :) |
| 05:34.07 | FlAWD | sigh |
