[Implemented] Auction improvements

On the bidding page in the voodoo card market, there's a listing of recent auction results for that card e.g:

Recent Booty Master auctions:
Date Amount Final price
2013-07-22 04:18:11 1 cards 5 credits
2013-07-21 18:11:55 1 cards 20 credits
2013-07-21 09:25:31 1 cards 11 credits
2013-07-18 20:38:02 1 cards 15 credits
2013-07-18 16:31:15 1 cards 17 credits
2013-07-14 16:04:57 1 cards 20 credits
2013-07-11 17:51:38 1 cards 10 credits
2013-07-07 23:51:50 1 cards 11 credits
2013-07-03 13:46:04 1 cards 15 credits
2013-06-28 16:33:02 2 cards 14 credits
Average price on last 10 auctions: 13.1 credits per card

Would it be possible to place this information on the voodoo card description page? I think it would help players to get involved in the card market, which I think will lead to more players buying credits.

You can subscribe to a Fox market agent who sends out messages for when to sell certain cards, when to buy, when to do nothing, and the value of cards to look into. Bet you didn't know we did that. Anyway, you can subscribe and get accurate answers whether you're an ally or not. Try it free if you want.

I want to be able to see all of my current auctions without having to go through 15+ pages of voodoo...

Also options like My Current bids, List Enchantments(...) only,List by Rarity, Ship-fleet-port only would be nice.

I agree, a your auctions button, and perhaps even previous successful and failed auctions log to help keep track of prices and sales.

The market page needs some improvements; this is one of them.
What rolando said, alongside with a report button for whatever price seems weird (like Port Battles, players will be able to scroll back to ALL auctions and review them)

We also have in mind to improve the wishlist:
-Add ability to include minimum credits willing to offer
-Incorporate it when going to create a toplist (more places too perhaps)


If you got anything else in mind, please post up here.

I was thinking of something similar: putting the "average price" in the list on the auction selection page found at "http://s2.piratesglory.com/?page=voodoo&action=exchange&store=auction", and the list of the last ten sales on the page where you choose the number of cards and price to sell at. This would definitely help me, and hopefully others, work out what to sell at without doing a lot of page hopping.

Truth is that we dismissed this from our initial design because we didn't want the players to auction based on history only - but since you are checking this anyway, I cannot see any reason to hold it any longer. It has been implemented.

okay did not know where to put this here sounds nice
in the auction market the id number of voodoo auctions changes every time an a auction end
it is hard to agree on buying a card this way
example : lets say i want to but remodel current number on market 30 i post in my guild i am bidding on remodel number 30 so that they dont bid on it too
the bad thing is that when the number changes it may become like number 20 and when a guild mate sees it he sais mo said number 30 so he wasted extra credits buying it i been on this situation many times
and i say every auction should have its own number that does not change when auctions expire

Mohammed, you are giving the wrong url. We will however make a separate share link + a share tag so you will now be able to share it easily with friends.
