The Black Market (in General)

why do votes have to expire? I know if they didn't, there would be waaayyy too many items spawned by it, the market would flood, and we would all crash and burn, then die and burn again :-P But how about increasing the increment at which ppl can vote to once every 2 or 3 weeks. or increase the votes needed for a spawn by some. that way, there isn't just the BMVG telling you what to demand. Instead, its what each individual wants, without fear of wasted votes. Just the thoughts of a noob. Comments and flames welcome...

that'd be worse, less items would be spawned, to increase the time we have to wait to vote and to kill the expiry on them.

I find that the purpose of the blackmarket is lost once Mr Chairman is able to bid on items even though it doesn't get to vote at all :(

Kong,

It just means that the bargains that were once readily available are no longer there.

If you bid an appropriate amount for the BM item, CB will not overbid you.

However, what is an appropriate bid? I have no freaking idea!!!

I mean, a blackmarket should be decided by the people who voted for it. Even if we gang up and bid the min for an item, it should still stand because it IS the blackmarket. If Mr Chairman can vote what he likes, then we might as well not waste our time and effort to try to spawn rares. Just scrap the whole blackmarket and forget about it...
