IF YOU HAVE RECEIVED NOTICE THAT YOU WON A BID PLEASE DO NOT SUBMIT PAYMENT TO THIRST RELIEF UNTIL THIS ISSUE HAS CLEARLY BEEN RESOLVED. WE WILL POST HERE ON OSP, PICTAGE AND ASK THE MENTORS TO POST ON THEIR BLOGS ETC. WHEN IT IS OK TO PAY AND THE AUCTION IS OFFICIALLY CLOSED. (IF YOU WON YOUR AUCTION BEFORE 8:32p.m. EST. YOU REALLY DID WIN, IF YOU WON AFTER THAT IT'S NOT FOR SURE WHO WON, WE'LL KEEP YOU POSTED ON WHAT IS RESOLVED.)
Davina is making dinner for her kids (not joking) and trying to manage this issue with the fotoverite site and leaving for her workshop in two days. Sooo, just know we are working with fotoverite to resolve the issue and try to get it back up.We DO NOT know when it will be back up, what auctions will have closed etc. but we'll do EVERYTHING we can to get the site back up tonight or tomorrow and if it's possible to we'll be reopening the auctions with an extension if it works out and is in the best interest for all involved.
Again, logon, put your VERY best bid in the first time, the site will automatically bid for you based on your proxy vote but you will not pay anymore than the absolute minimum next highest bid. Make sense?
Sorry for any inconvenience, in only our third year for the auction we had no idea there would be soooo many hits at one time and we took multiple precautionary steps to try to avoid this. Next year we'll do absolutely everything we can to avoid this situation!
Again, thanks to all who are bidding!
What a huge success it's gonna be when it's final! just for Matt!
