How to keep Kyoubai and Itembuildr from becoming as dusty and unused as Forumbuildr, INCIT, and Fran's woman's genitals | |||||||

First of all, CZ creates two categories for Itembuildr – new shop items, and items that are sold through Kyoubai. Either both formats can be run a week, the formats can be alternated, or a simple “generic” format could be run, and CZ chooses which category a new item fits in.
Shop items simply go into the designated shop, or can be available through the Ppwn shop to increase their rarity. Kyoubai items would work differently – all Kyoubai items get set aside into a group that becomes eligible for circulation in the auction house.
After a new item wins, a set amount (two dozen, three dozen, etc.) are added to Kyoubai, all at once. This means (bumuming it’s like Forumbuidr) everybody enters Kyoubai as soon as they’re added, and a bidding war ensues. And because the auctioning party (which could be made into a fictional, online character or store) isn’t a user, all this money is taken out of the economy as a Flezz sink.
Of course, the person who created the item can point and laugh at the cluster****, because he received a free copy of the item. Log in to see images!
But, in addition, previously created items can be added to Kyoubai at random times during the week, much like how items circulate in the Ppwn Shop. This means, if a player missed last week’s item, he can watch for it in the auction house for the next few weeks..mybe he’ll get lucky. This lets CZ do a lot of other cool things, like adjusting a minimum bid price, retiring old items, etc.
Of course, this idea needs to be supplemented by more Flezz sinks, such as the Christmas raffle, so that the top 1/3 of the flezz leaderboard aren’t the only people winning these items.

As someone who uses two out of the three things quoted in the thread title, I object to this discussion. Log in to see images! |

Considering you don’t have any Forumbuildr or INCIT E-Peen, I’m horrified by the idea that you might be counting Fran’s woman's genitals twice. Log in to see images!
