Auction & Bidding Rules

1. Don't bid what you don't have, and please do not withdraw your bids once posted.
2. You may bid using items, but only Monthly Collectibles before 2006. No store items or Cash Shop items.
3. Items are priced at low-Tektek value for the day you bid the item. Once the bid-value for that item is set on the day you bid it, the item will remain at that value
4. Co-bidding and co-owning is allowed, but please keep in mind that should you co-own, only one person is allowed to RP the rabbit.
5. Please do not plan co-bids in the thread.
6. Tally up your own totals.
7. No sniping; you must show interest in the auctions at least an hour before they end (meaning no new bidders in the last hour of the auction).
8. A 10-minute snipe guard will be implemented if bids continue past the specified ending time.
9. If you win an auction, please send the trade to the mule within 24 hours of the auction's end.
10. More rules will be added as needed.

Special Custom-Auction Rules & Information
The below rules and info are a layout of what you can and can not order should you win the custom auctions. We want to let you know what you're bidding for, after all.

1. This special auction will allow you to customize a rabbit of any rank that you want, with the exceptions of Chief Rabbit, Owsla Captain, and Marli, without going through the RP and application process for these alternate stages. You may start at any stage you wish, and the rabbit will automatically grow into whatever final stage you choose.
2. However, you will still be required to roleplay to keep the rank. No getting the rabbit on special lines and running off!
3. Remember, natural colors only, but we will be allowing a wider range of patterns for this auction. For example, you could get a marking that looks like a crescent moon or maybe a maple leaf on your rabbit. Still, no logos, words, extremely detailed lace-patterns, rainbows, etc. The markings still have to be something conceivably natural on the rabbit.
4. We will allow conceivable edits. You can make your rabbit as furry as you want (within reason of the lineart, please xD), or with as many scars and battle-wounds as you could possibly want while still allowing the rabbit to live. Note that things such as missing limbs will require extensive backstory and RP after receiving the rabbit; if activity on the part of the owner doesn't meet requirements, we have the right to alter the rabbit as we see fit.
5. We will not do edits that are not anatomically natural to a rabbit. No wings, horns, vampire fangs, paws ablaze with fire, eyes that shoot laser-beams, or...uhm, you get the picture.
6. As far as item-edits go, the rabbits may have things that they might find around the warren/in the wilderness, i.e. having a twig in their mouth, having a flower bud tucked on an ear, or carrying around a piece of clover for a special reason.
7. Please do not request human items like collars or ribbons.
8. You may not get a character from the books, or a rabbit that is somehow the rabbit of Inle, etc.
9. If you have a cosplay idea, you may discuss it with the staff upon winning the auction. Keep in mind that all of the above rules apply; by cosplay, I mean something like the Lion King-themed rabbits that were in the raffle, or naturals/wildlife cosplays that would be conceivable within the constrains of the shop (meaning, no peacock-bunnies).
10. More information and rules will be added as needed.

There is a raid coming! The entire warren is buzzing with excitement as the news spreads deep into the recesses of the Down. The problem is, there are several different stories floating around and even many of the Owsla don't know exactly which story is true

Some rabbits think that Bracken-rah was the one to suggest the raid, while others think that it was the Captain, Cocklebur. Is the idea of a raid a good one for this time of year? There has been an influx in the Down's population and there are many mouths to feed, but it has been ages since the Owsla had made the dangerous adventure to fetch flay-rah.

Owsla hopefuls will be allowed along, too!

The problem is, he has heard that Bracken loves the idea of the raid, but he has also heard that Bracken loathes the idea of the raid. General confusion seems to be seeping through the runs.

This particular buck is going along for the ride. What are his thoughts on the situation? Who does he support, Bracken or Cocklebur? Does he even take a side, or does he prefer to keep his opinions to himself? What is his personality, in general?

Your task, to win this sturdy, handsome buck, is to write a response answering these questions. Think him through, decide his past, and determine how he feels about the current situation the warren is enveloped in.

Rules:

1.) Read and follow shop rules on the first page.
2.) Although this shop is not roleplay required, this rabbit must be played throughout the current raid plot.
3.) This buck is on alternate, Owsla lines. Though the shop is not roleplay required, roleplay is required to keep his current lines. If he is not played with regularly, he may be demoted to regular buck lines and removed from the Owsla.
4.) You may not proxy. We want to see your own talents! It's a roleplay contest, after all!
5.) You are limited to one entry for this contest.
6.) You many not edit your entry after posting it.
