Vonz - this thread is to help you and for the benefit of charity fundraising.
Fair enough some members are away due to holidays/christenings/lottery wins etc. for YDC104 but, you have to admit YDC auctions are NOT what they used to be. So, from MY POINT OF VIEW ONLY rules and regs need to be minuted - just joking everyone but we do need to sort this out before 2013 auctions start.
Vonz - what I am saying here is nothing against you - you are doing a fantastic job in my book! What I am saying is to help you, please remember that.
If any members wish to add to this please answer BEFORE NOVEMBER 13th - after this date i will close the thread.
To save Vonz any hassle I will amalgamate all answers and communicate with her to sort this out - only if she wants me to of course.
IMO ONLY!
1) Cancel the December YDC105 (no YDC held in November) and lets start afresh in January 2013.
2) January YDC starts with the number 13 (YDC113) New year and a new start for YDC.
3) Rules and regs need to be shortened overall - currently it's like reading War and Peace and can put off newbies wanting to sell for charity.
4) Rules and regs need adjusting to cater for all members WORLDWIDE.
SO my six pennyworth is (I'll probably add to this if anyone gives me something to think about!):
a) ANY auction should be able to start with a 0.01p start price (or the equivalent currency) WITHOUT that member being entered into the YDC Competition.
b) ANY MEMBER wishing to enter the 'competition' should put in the TITLE and/or DESCRIPTION Competition entry YDCxxx with any start price.
If you have anything constructive to add then please do so.
If you are wanting to scream at me, punch the screen or tell me to mind my own business as YDC Auctions are working perfectly well without my input, then please PM Gill.
Thank you for reading.
Kind regards all and enjoy life.
