Yeah dude... you won. Like 5 hours ago XD
But you are most likely asleep. It is morning here, I just woke up, and it's 7:28 AM EST. You started bidding at 3:01 PM EST, so for me, you finished all the way in the middle of the night XD

25,500 trololol, umad bro
Ends 6:35 AM EST if this is last bid, which I don't think it is.
Hey I just realize I have the most money out of everyone in this game, just because I don't buy military. Plus the most land, because no one put restrictions on bidding for land ('cept the minimum money amounts, of course). I'll share my secret: I think that it is much more rewarding to bid for land, not conquer it. You expand much more quickly, because of no 3 day limitation, and even if it is more costly to buy it through bidding, you gain money in less amount of time (bidding ends withing 24 hrs usually, while battles take around 2-3. Therefore you gain 2x-3x more money in the same time as a battle, where you would get only 1x compared.)

ACTUALLY, and I've been wondering if this was the case or not for a few days now. The 3 day cooldown on taking territories applies to auctions as well. In the thread it's worded as "There are 2 ways to try and take a territory ... if you try and take a territory you must wait 3 days regardless of whether you won or not."
So the Czech auction is invalid.

Should it be? How long has it been since your last auction?

I see your point. The Kazahk auction should be wiped out.
But, I would like to point something out, since you keep correcting my mistakes (I understand it's your job, take no offence), I'll point out yours.
You were not allowed to bid for Japan. According to your writing,
"-Auction (A player requests an auction of a nearby territory, minimum bid is $20000, and only other nearby nations may bid.)"
"only other nearby nations may bid"
I owned China, so I was allowed to bid. You have 0 countries anywhere near there.
Anyway, let us forget my mistake and your mistake and keep playing the game with the rules read more carefully from now on.

I knew I wrote that somewhere! I just couldn't find it xD I was about to ask how you got to China then, but then I remembered you have all of Russia. Which unlocks a ton of places.
So you're right, my bids shouldn't count.

There are a lot of places that have been gained without cooldown, I think. Alright, so I'll have to wait a bit.
