The Let's Spoon Auction!
Round 5
Welcome to the Let's Spoon Auction!!!
 Auction ExplanationEach round, an item will be auctioned to all of the contestants. This item may be positive, neutral, or negative. Some items will be displayed publicly at auction time, while others will remain covered. A schedule of auction items will be sent to a moderator in advance. The rounds will thus be structured a little differently than in the past five seasons. They will begin with the auction post, the bidding will last for ten minutes, and then the challenge will be posted fifteen minutes after the auction post. Bidding will be done publicly in the thread, in increments of $10. The person to bid the highest by the ten minute mark (from the initial auction post) will win the item!
At the start of this season, every contestant will be given $1,000 to spend at the auctions held throughout the season. They can also earn additional money by ranking in the top five contestants each round. Prizes will be as follows:
1st spoon/challenge winner = +$50
2nd spoon = +$30
3rd spoon = +$20
4th spoon = +$10
5th spoon = +$5
Today's auction item is...
A COVERED ITEM
Are you willing to risk your money for a covered item? This could be an incredible advantage, a neutral object, or an unfortunate disadvantage. Sometimes, the risk is worth the reward! The item will be revealed at 1:11 PM, but ONLY if someone buys it. If no one buys this item, it will not be revealed, and will go back into rotation to potentially be used in a future auction. A moderator will always be private messaged in advance with information about covered items.
This round's item has a stipulation: You must spend $500 or more in order to unlock it (not like that will be difficult with you guys)
You may now start bidding. Only bids that are multiples of ten will be accepted. The highest bidder to post by 1:10 PM EST will win this.
Good luck, Spooners!
