This just grinds my gears.
I was in an auction for a plains zebra, the last zebra I need. I was neck and neck for a while with one other person, who then upped their offer to moonswirl. No biggie, I flounder around and offer more as well. I come back later and see if i was ahead or needed to add more and saw that they got a Plains zebra elsewhere and pulled out. Hurrah for me!
Some one else comes in bidding (I shall call them numer 2) a dogtag + some, however I was still in the lead. It was to end in three hours. I come back after another hour to check up.....
the person who offered the moonswirl came back in to get the zebra. Why? Because they offered their own dogtag for the first zebra they got and they want to get it back. So they went and arranged with number 2 that they would use the moonswirl to win and trade the zebra for the dogtag+...
-sigh- this just... irritates me to no end. D:
