Ok well I'm all caught up! I had to do those stage rounds because that's what was stated earlier. Of course things have changed now.
After every 3 regular product rounds, the person who is closest, out of those 3, to the target price wins their way on stage. It's just way too time consuming to offer every reg. product winner a stage round.
And of course I like the short time limits, to deter googling. So every regular product round will be closed after 3 minutes. As of now I'm just gonna give a five minute warning before a regular product is posted. I'd like to make an approximate schedule, but I would just hate it if players were hanging around not getting anything done, and then me not be able to fullfill the schedule (not that I think BN players would hang around for a game and not get anything done).

Yeah, I have to do this in real time, I figured it was the best way for PIR. I'm sure there will be many products that do not get bid on during the 3 minute deadline.
But some of these other stage games I'm reading are gonna be fun to pull off. Sorry you didn't know contruction paper was so expensive.

Of course you did say 6 of them.

I thought about that, but the feud started with no advertising. Then "he" did all kinds of advertising after that.

This is basically a test to see if people like it.
