Here are the stall choices. All stalls are available for lease this month. Please send me your list of choices in order from Most Desired to Least Desired by 12 PM (Noon) US Central Time on Sunday, March 25th. Also let me know at that time if you want an upgraded (24-slot) stall, which costs 2x the monthly price. So that would be 12,200 dram for Highsteppe, or 36,000 dram for Guild City.
If I don’t receive a list from you, or if you want to just use the default, the default order is:
Highsteppe: 1, 9, 2, 8, 7, 6, 3, 4, 5
Guild City: 1, 8, 5, 4, 11, 10, 9, 6, 7, 3, 2
(Note stall 9 in Highsteppe is the unlabeled one between 1 and 2).
Thanks!
That’s hilarious. I have so many regrets.

Yeah the next bid above that was like 30k or something, just squeaked by this time with there being 9 stalls available.

I figured I might luck out with a 5100 bid, but that was actually surprisingly closer than I thought it would be. I think with lower prices we might actually end up seeing some reasonably priced goods lol.
Can we get some clarification on what constitutes a “market group?” What does a fellowship need to do in preparation for the next auction so that they may host three separate “market groups” in each city?

It’s come to my attention that some people bid on stalls in violation of the Market Group rules. I just assume typically that people have read the rules and there won’t be a problem, but I guess I am learning my lesson and in the future I will specifically ask your Fellowship name when you place a bid.
At any rate, I am sorting that out this evening, but there will definitely be some bids forfeit and that will change who is getting stalls and at what price they are selling. I will let you all know when I have updated the list again.

The list has been updated and should now be final. Note the change to the end of both lists and also the price changed.
You did it ! hahaha congrats on that stall

To be clear on this for the future, if you are in the same Fellowship as someone else who is placing a bid, you must contact us in advance to apply to be considered a separate Market Group from your other Fellowship member. In addition to that, I am allowing no more than two Market Groups from each Fellowship per marketplace right now.
If you are a separate Market Group from your Fellowship, then you:
- Must only buy items from your Fellowship members at publicly listed prices
- Must not rely on help form your Fellowship members to gather resources or e.g. to defend you when you are in the Wilds.
- Must not collude or price-fix prices.
Basically you have to generally act like you are your own Market Participant, not just an extension of your Fellowship so they have more slots to sell stuff.

At this rate we could just disband the fellowships, as the whole point is to work together and help each other… This is just all messed up…
So based on this you want all the stall owners to play solo without fellowships? I don’t really get what you are trying to achieve this way…
We’re doing this to ensure a competitive Marketplace. The original idea was that each Fellowship would get a stall, and then all work together to stock that stall with their items.
No you have it backwards. By default the Fellowship is assumed to be working together. The “original” stall for each Fellowship is free to do exactly what you say.
However, to prevent one Fellowship from dominating the entire market, we are only allowing each Fellowship to have one stall in Highsteppe, and one in Guild City.
If someone from that Fellowship wants their own stall, separate from their Fellowship, they can apply to do so, and then they have to abide by those rules.
Giving a concrete example, J’s two stalls are assumed to be Alphabet’s stalls. He can work with Fellowship members to stock them and gather resources to sell in them as much as he wants. However, Crazie and Roxanne have now applied to have their own stalls, and for their stalls they agree not to work with J (or the rest of Alphabet) to stock them. That way Alphabet the Fellowship only gets their two stalls, and they can’t take over the whole Marketplace.
Trust me, if I just made this a free for all, then there would be like 4 people in the whole game who could actually own stalls because they have enough money to buy them all up. I guarantee you at that point there would be no one getting a 5,100 dram stall in Highsteppe.

Just a question, what about just simply having fun in the wilds together with other fellowship members? Would that also be against the agreement?
…But Alfabet, Aifabet and Alfabet 2 are 3 different groups. That’s 90 people, and most of the active players in the game right now… 2 stall for 90 people is a bit hard. Especially as half are in Europe and half in us
I missed the bidding 
Rip. Oh well, I will get it next month I guess.
The only people that are excluded from doing that now are Crazie and Roxanne. That’s literally what they agreed to. They are saying “it’s more important to me to have a stall than it is to participate with Alphabet in the Wilds”.
You all are acting like these are new rules. They’ve been in place for three months now.
At any rate, at this point I have explained the reason for the rules, and what they are, so I don’t think there’s anything more to discuss.
